Abstract:

X80 pipeline steel was heat treated by using dual phase accelerated cooling (the initial cooling temperature of the accelerated cooling was 700 ℃), and dual-phase structure of bainite and ferrite (B+F) was obtained. Microstructure characterization, mechanical properties test and corrosion resistance in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution were studied. The results show that the microstructure of pipeline steel after heat treatment is composed of lath bainite, polygonal ferrite and a small amount of martensite/austenite islands. The yield ratio and initial work hardening index of (B+F) dual-phase pipeline steel are 0.65 and 0.31, respectively. Compared with that of steel before heat treatment, the uniform elongation of pipeline steel after heat treatment is 8.3%, which indicates that the ductility is significantly improved. The corrosion resistance is also improved due to 52.4% amount of ferrite phase in the dual-phase structure. The coordinated deformation of (B+F) dual-phase structure obtained by dual-phase accelerated cooling during plastic deformation process can meet the needs of high deformation, and the corrosion resistance of the dual-phase structure is excellent, which provides some reference for the actual production of high deformation pipeline steel.
