- Abstract
- This study was concerned with effects of acicular ferrite on Charpy impact properties in heat affected zones (HAZs) of two API X80 linepipe steels containing oxides. In the one steel, Mg and O-2 were additionally added to form a larger amount of oxides than the other steel, which was a conventional X80 steel containing a considerable amount of Al and Ti. Various HAZ microstructures were obtained by conducting HAZ simulation tests under different heat inputs of 35 kJ cm(-1) and 60 kJ cm(-1). Oxides present in the API X80 linepipe steels were complex oxides whose average size was 1-2 mu m, and the number of oxides increased with increasing amount of Mg and O-2. The volume fraction of acicular ferrite present in the steel HAZs increased with increasing number of oxides, and decreased with increasing heat input. When the volume fraction of acicular in the HAZ was higher than 20%, Charpy impact energy at -20 degrees C was higher than 100 J as the ductile fracture mode was dominant. Particularly in the steel HAZs having a larger amount of oxides, Charpy impact properties were excellent because oxides worked as nucleation sites of acicular ferrite during welding. Charpy impact properties of the HAZs could be well correlated with the volume fraction of acicular ferrite and number of oxides under different heat input conditions. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.
