不同硼含量微合金钢的连续冷却相变行为

 利用热模拟试验技术对实验室制备的含硼微合金钢连续冷却转变形为进行了试验研究,利用光学显微镜研究冷却速度、变形对试验钢显微组织的影响,探讨了硼对转变行为的影响规律。结果表明：适量硼延缓多边形铁素体生成,有利于获得贝氏体组织;无硼及wB=00020%时,分别在1~25及05~25℃/s的冷速都能得到贝氏体组织;wB=00030%时,冷速在2℃/s 以上能得到贝氏体组织;与未变形相比,变形导致试验钢贝氏体冷速区间变窄。在同一冷速下,随硼含量增加贝氏体开始转变温度先降低再升高,显微硬度随硼含量增加先增加而后降低。     

钒微合金化低碳贝氏体钢的连续冷却相变特性

 采用热膨胀法测定6种不同成分低碳贝氏体钢的连续冷却转变(CCT)曲线。CCT曲线表明,加入微量硼能使含钒低碳贝氏体钢在大于03℃/s的冷速下获得贝氏体组织,而V-N微合金化的低碳贝氏体获得全贝氏体的临界冷速要高于V-B钢,且贝氏体转变的开始温度也要较V-B钢高20℃左右。在含钒、氮低碳贝氏体钢中加入钼、铬将会促进钢的贝氏体相变,但钼的作用要优于铬;钼、铬的加入可使含钒、氮低碳贝氏体钢的贝氏体转变温度降低至少30℃,且贝氏体组织得到了细化,钢的维氏硬度也提高了HV10~30。     

低碳贝氏体钢连续冷却相变规律研究

利用Gleeble1500热/力模拟实验机,研究了抗拉强度为700 MPa级的低碳贝氏体钢的相变规律,分析了不同冷却速率对钢组织及性能的影响。结果表明：轧后试样在1℃/s～30℃/s较宽的冷却速度范围内均可得到贝氏体组织,并随着冷却速度的增加,显微组织以粒状贝氏体为主转变为以性能优良的板条贝氏体和马氏体为主,在不降低韧性指标的前提下,提高了强度,为700 MPa级的低碳贝氏体钢工艺制度的制订提供了依据。     

铬和铝元素对低碳贝氏体钢组织和性能影响

 低碳贝氏体钢通常需要添加一定量合金元素来提升性能,为了研究合金元素铬和铝在低碳贝氏体钢中的作用,以Fe-C-Si-Mn-Mo系贝氏体钢为基础,设计了单独添加铬元素和复合添加Cr+Al元素的3种低碳贝氏体钢,研究了铬和铝的添加对连续冷却处理低碳贝氏体钢显微组织、力学性能及贝氏体相变的影响规律。结果表明,连续冷却条件下,铬可以促进低碳贝氏体钢相变趋向于更低的温度区间进行,细化贝氏体组织,从而提高强度;铝可以促进贝氏体相变动力学,但对低碳贝氏体钢意义不大。同时,添加铝会使低碳贝氏体钢组织粗化,导致强度和伸长率同时下降。综合来看,复合添加铬和铝的优化效果不如单独添加铬,单独添加铬的低碳贝氏体钢强度达到1 623 MPa,伸长率为10.5%,结果可以为低碳贝氏体钢成分设计提供依据。     

控轧控冷工艺对低碳铌微合金钢组织和性能的影响

用Gleeble-1500热模拟实验机测定了低碳铌微合金钢变形后的连续冷却转变曲线(CCT曲线),并在实验室对该实验钢采用不同的工艺进行了控制轧制和控制冷却的实验.研究了工艺参数对实验钢力学性能和微观组织的影响,分析了低碳铌微合金钢的强韧化机制.热模拟实验结果表明,实验钢在较宽的冷却速度范围(0.5～30 ℃/s)内可以获得贝氏体组织.控轧控冷的实验结果表明,实验钢的组织主要为铁素体和贝氏体.随着终轧温度的降低,组织得到细化,强度提高,但屈强比也随之增加;降低卷取温度使组织中的贝氏体含量略有增加,强度有所提高.初步探讨了贝氏体对实验钢性能的影响,为制定合适的生产工艺制度提供了依据.     

微合金元素对700MPa级低碳贝氏体钢组织与性能的影响

通过对700 MPa级低碳贝氏体钢静态CCT曲线及不同冷却速度下组织的分析,研究了两组不同Ti、Nb含量的低碳贝氏体钢的组织、性能。结果表明,Ti、Nb含量的增加促使抗拉强度、屈服强度提高,但是Ti含量过量时对低温冲击功是不利的;wTi=0.015%-0.025%、wNb=0.04%-0.05%可满足700 MPa级别低碳贝氏体钢的强度与韧性要求,该成分钢在TMCP处理后采用回火工艺,可以获得理想的力学性能。     

影响含B低碳贝氏体钢冲击韧性的规律研究

对影响含硼低碳贝氏体钢冲击韧性的因素进行了对比试验和分析,总结了含硼低碳贝氏体钢冲击韧性的规律。认为影响含硼低碳贝氏体钢冲击韧性的主要原因是有效晶界与质点控制,从而通过细化轧制奥氏体获得有效晶界,通过控轧控冷来控制相变,获得不同类型的中温转变组织分割奥氏体。利用准多边形铁素体、位向不同的板条束、和粒贝等组织有效改善冲击韧性,获得良好的强韧性匹配。同时微合金元素的合理使用与钢水纯净度的控制是获得良好韧性的前提。     

钛、铌、硼对低碳贝氏体钢组织与性能的影响

以C-Mn钢和700 MPa级低碳贝氏体钢成分为基础成分,通过调整微合金元素含量,实验室条件下熔炼浇注钢锭,并采用TMCP技术轧制钢板,研究了微合金元素钛、铌、硼对低碳贝氏体钢组织与性能的影响。结果表明,随着铌含量的增加,贝氏体含量增加,晶粒变细,材料的抗拉强度、屈服强度与韧性均增加;随着钛含量的增加,贝氏体含量增加,抗拉强度、屈服强度提高,韧性的变化与是否进行回火处理有关;硼有利于形成板条贝氏体组织,硼含量增加能提高强度,但有损韧性。     

轧后冷却条件对低碳贝氏体钢组织性能的影响

 为了研究轧后不同冷却条件对高强低碳贝氏体钢组织和性能的影响,采用热模拟试验、扫描电镜、透射电镜和拉伸试验等手段,阐明不同冷却条件下高强低碳贝氏体钢的组织和性能变化规律。结果表明,在终冷温度为510 ℃时,组织以粒状贝氏体为主,终冷温度为450 ℃时以板条状贝氏体为主,前者组织中具有更多岛状马氏体;随着冷却速率提高,粒状贝氏体和板条状贝氏体尺寸细化,岛状马氏体减少。此外,不同冷却速率下,较低的终冷温度均具有更高的相变速率,冷却速率为50 ℃/s时,贝氏体相变速率最大。另外,终冷温度较高时,试验钢呈现出更好的塑性,强度随冷速变化较小;终冷温度较低时,试验钢呈现出更高的强度,但塑性较低,冷却速率对强度有较大的影响。     

1000MPa级低碳高强钢的组织转变与性能研究

利用膨胀仪测定1 000 MPa级低碳高强钢临界点及CCT曲线,研究不同冷速对试验钢显微组织的影响。结果表明:在0.5～1℃/s冷速范围内,试验钢得到单一粒状贝氏体组织;在2～15℃/s冷速范围内,得到粒状贝氏体、板条贝氏体和马氏体的混合组织;在20～80℃/s的冷却速度范围内,得到板条贝氏体和马氏体的混合组织。以测定CCT曲线为参考依据制定调质工艺,试验钢经过调质后获得优异的综合力学性能。     

1000MPa低碳贝氏体钢的连续冷却转变组织及力学性能

A Study of the Influence of Thermomechanical Controlled Processing on the Microstructure of Bainite in High Strength Plate Steel

Steels with compositions that are hot rolled and cooled to exhibit high strength and good toughness often require a bainitic microstructure. This is especially true for plate steels for linepipe applications where strengths in excess of 690 MPa (100 ksi) are needed in thicknesses between approximately 6 and 30 mm. To ensure adequate strength and toughness, the steels should have adequate hardenability (C. E. >0.50 and Pcm >0.20), and are thermomechanically controlled processed, i.e., controlled rolled, followed by interrupted direct quenching to below the Bs temperature of the pancaked austenite. Bainite formed in this way can be defined as a polyphase mixture comprised a matrix phase of bainitic ferrite plus a higher carbon second phase or micro-constituent which can be martensite, retained austenite, or cementite, depending on circumstances. This second feature is predominately martensite in IDQ steels. Unlike pearlite, where the ferrite and cementite form cooperatively at the same moving interface, the bainitic ferrite and MA form in sequence with falling temperature below the Bs temperature or with increasing isothermal holding time. Several studies have found that the mechanical properties may vary strongly for different types of bainite, i.e., different forms of bainitic ferrite and/or MA. Thermomechanical controlled processing (TMCP) has been shown to be an important way to control the microstructure and mechanical properties in low carbon, high strength steel. This is especially true in the case of bainite formation, where the complexity of the austenite-bainite transformation makes its control through disciplined processing especially important. In this study, a low carbon, high manganese steel containing niobium was investigated to better understand the effects of austenite conditioning and cooling rates on the bainitic phase transformation, i.e., the formation of bainitic ferrite plus MA. Specimens were compared after transformation from recrystallized, equiaxed austenite to deformed, pancaked austenite, which were followed by seven different cooling rates ranging between 0.5 K/s (0.5 °C/s) and 40 K/s (40 °C/s). The CCT curves showed that the transformation behaviors and temperatures varied with starting austenite microstructure and cooling rate, resulting in different final microstructures. The EBSD results and the thermodynamics and kinetics analyses show that in low carbon bainite, the nucleation rate is the key factor that affects the bainitic ferrite morphology, size, and orientation. However, the growth of bainite is also quite important since the bainitic ferrite laths apparently can coalesce or coarsen into larger units with slower cooling rates or longer isothermal holding time, causing a deterioration in toughness. This paper reviews the formation of bainite in this steel and describes and rationalizes the final microstructures observed, both in terms of not only formation but also for the expected influence on mechanical properties.
