Effect of alloying elements addition on the secondary tempering brittleness of Cr-Mo steels review
For some Cr-Mo steels (2.25Cr1Mo) which are usually serviced at medium temperature for a long time,the critical problem of the second type temper embrittlement is existed in these steels because of the continuous segregations of P,S and other harmful impurities to the grain boundary during the service. In order to explore some effective methods to reduce the temper embrittlement tendency of this kind of Cr-Mo steels and improve the reliability of the material,starting from the segregation mechanism of solute elements,the intrinsic essences of alloy elements segregation at grain boundary and its function on improving the temper brittleness of steel were analyzed. The segregation phenomena of several common elements and their influence on temper embrittlement of steel were mainly summarized. At the same time,the main reasons for the difference between theoretical calculation and experimental study are also analyzed. It is expected to provide some effective methods for temper embrittlement of medium temperature steel during long-term service,and offer some references for the study of grain boundary segregation behavior of alloying elements in future.

Microstructure and properties as well as deformation behavior in an incritical annealing medium-Mn steel
In order to investigate the evolution rule of microstructure of medium manganese steel and its influence on mechanical properties and deformation behavior in an intercritical annealing treatment, a cold-rolled medium manganese steel (0.1C-7Mn-0.35Si) was intercritically annealed from 570 to 650 ℃. The research results show that as the annealing temperature increases, the dual-phase structure containing of austenite plus ferrite structure gradually tends to be equiaxed and the grains become coarsened, and the martensite structure appears at 650 ℃. The tensile strength of the experimental steel increases with increasing temperature, while the elongation and yield strength all show a downward trend; the localized uneven deformation band was gradually weakened and was completely disappeared at 620 and 650 ℃. When annealed at a relatively high annealing temperature, the stimulative deformation-induced martensite transformation inside coarse equiaxed austenite grains and the reduced dynamic recovery in large-sized ferrite grains, as well as the introduction of martensite at higher temperature etc. all enhance the work hardening capability at the yield stage, and hence recede or suppress the propagation of the Lüders band.

Effect of recrystallization annealing temperature on texture and magnetic properties of ultra-thin oriented-silicon steel
In order to study the effect of annealing temperature on microstructure,texture and magnetic properties of ultra-thin grain-oriented silicon steel for medium/high frequency application,an ultra-thin grain-oriented silicon steel with a thickness of 0.08 mm was prepared by the primary recrystallization method using the commercial 0.27 mm glassless grain-oriented silicon steel plate as raw materials. Effects of annealing in the range of 800 ℃ to 1 000 ℃ on annealed structure,texture and magnetic properties of ultra-thin oriented silicon steel were systematically investigated. It was found that,due to forming high-angle misorientation grain boundary with surrounding deformation matrix,the η oriented ({0kl}<100>) grains in transition bands preferentially nucleated by bulging of initial grain boundaries. With the increase of annealing temperature,average recrystallized grain size increased,the size advantage of non-η oriented grains such as {114}<481> grains became more obvious,the volume ratio of η oriented grains decreased and grain uniformity turned worse. Ultra-thin oriented silicon steel had better comprehensive magnetic properties when annealing temperature was slightly lower and the magnetic induction intensity and the core loss was 1.82 T and 11.66 W/kg respectively,best comprehensive medium frequency magnetic properties in the present experiment condition when annealing temperature was 800 ℃.

Effect of manganese on microstructure and properties of high nitrogen super martensitic stainless steel
In order to further improve the strength and toughness and excellent corrosion resistance of super martensitic stainless steel,two new super martensitic stainless steels with nitrogen of 0.35% and manganese of 0.4% and 2.0%(mass percent) were developed and prepared under laboratory conditions,which are processed by quenching and partitioning process; The microstructure and mechanical properties of the steel were characterized by universal testing machine,optical microscope,scanning electron microscope,transmission electron microscope and electron backscattering diffraction. The results show that the mechanical properties of the two kinds of test steels are significantly improved compared with that of typical super martensitic stainless steels after quenching and partitioning. At the same time,it is found that manganese has a significant influence on the strength and toughness of the test steel. When the mass percent of manganese increases from 0.4% to 2.0%,the tensile strength and elongation of the test steel change from 1 690 MPa and 15.2% to 1 215 MPa and 35.1%,respectively,which both break the strength and toughness indexes of traditional super martensitic stainless steel. It is concluded that the reason for the significant improvement of strength and toughness is that the retained austenite content increases significantly after quenching and partitioning due to the synergistic effect of nitrogen and manganese,which is also caused by the precipitation of nano-scale reversed austenite and nitride.

Low temperature impact toughness controlling for Ti-microalloyed high strength steel
To solve the problem of inferior low-temperature impact toughness of hot-rolled titanium microalloyed high-strength steel,the reasons were analyzed from the aspects of impact fracture morphology,second phase of TiN and metallographic structure by means of the optical microscope,the scanning electron microscope,the energy dispersive spectrometer and other devices combined with thermodynamics and kinetics calculation. The analysis results showed that the main reasons for the inferior low-temperature impact toughness of the test steel are as follows. The presence of large particles of the second phase of TiN in steel,serious pearlite banded structure and uneven size distribution in steel,the effect of large TiN particles was more significant. By adding the processes of KR hot metal desulfurization and RH refining,improving the secondary cooling strength of continuous casting,reducing the mass percent of C,N in steel and other optimization measures,and therefore,the size of large TiN particles was reduced,the grade of pearlite banded structure in steel was reduced,as well as the proportion of soft phase structure of ferrite and the microstructure uniformity were increased. The low-temperature impact toughness of hot-rolled titanium microalloyed high-strength steel was improved significantly and the qualified rate was increased to 100%.

Effect of tempering temperature on impact absorbed energy of modified T23 steel
The safety of ultra-super critical power plants is severely endangered by the high reheat-cracking susceptibility of T23. Our former experimental results showed that the reheat cracking susceptibility of modified T23 steel was highly improved by modifying the composition,but the impact absorbed energy decreased. In order to improve the impact absorbed energy of modified T23 steel, the effect of tempering temperature on the microstructure,hardness and impact absorbed energy of modified T23 steel was investigated in this paper. The hardness and impact absorbed energy of modified T23 steel after tempering at 750-810 ℃ were measured,and the microstructure was analyzed by optical microscope (OM),scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The result shows that with increasing tempering temperature,the hardness of modified T23 steel decreases,while the impact absorbed energy increases firstly and then decreases. After tempering at 790 ℃,the impact absorbed energy reaches the maximum value. The main reasons for the decrease of hardness are the softening of matrix,the decomposition of M-A constitutes and the widening of bainitic laths. Compared with tempering at 750 ℃,the number of M-A constitutes with large size in modified T23 steel after tempering at 790 ℃ decreases,and the size is smaller. There are still some M23C6 carbides with small size at the grain boundaries, and the degree of bainitic lath widening is low. The crack propagation is hindered effectively,hence the impact absorbed energy is the highest. When the tempering temperature is increased to 810 ℃,the number of small M-A constitutes decreases and a large number of M23C6 carbides dissolve. In particular,the retarding effect of crack propagation is further reduced due to the severe widening of bainitic laths. Therefore,the impact absorbed energy decreases.

Rust layer of weathering steel and its stabilization treatment status
Weathering steel has good atmospheric corrosion resistance,but the formation of stable rust layer is slow. Pretreatment of the surface of weathering steel before use can shorten the formation time of rust layer stabilization and prevent rust liquid from sagging. The development of weathering steel at home and abroad,the formation process of stabilized rust layer and the composition and structure of rust layer are briefly summarized. The rust layer is divided into loose outer rust layer dominated by γ-FeOOH and dense inner rust layer dominated by α-FeOOH. The mechanism of rust layer protection is introduced,including physical barrier,anodic passivation protection,corrosion inhibitor protection and ion selective penetration protection. In order to explore the best use of weathering steel,the current application methods of weathering steel are summarized,which are mainly used after exposed,coated and rust stabilized. The key points of stabilizing treatment for rust layer of weathering steel are put forward,that is,selecting suitable film forming materials and accelerants to promote the formation of α-FeOOH. The application and development direction of stabilization treatment technology in the future are prospected.

Effect of nitrogen contentration on hardening and softening properties of high nitrogen stainless steel
High-nitrogen nickel-free austenitic stainless steels with different mass percent of nitrogen from 0.02% to 1.20% were designed and melted. The effect of nitrogen on work hardening and annealing softening were investigated through mechanical properties test and microstructure examination. The results show that nitrogen enhances the rate of work hardening. The work hardening rate increased 7.06 MPa/% when the mass percent of nitrogen raise from 0 to 1.2%. Nitrogen can promote recrystallization nucleation, refine grain size effectively. The grain refined 60% with mass percent of nitrogen adds from 0.4% to 1.2%, but it can diversify grain orientation.

Effect of silicon on microstructure and properties of ferritic heat-resistant steel
The 18Cr-Al-Si ferritic heat-resistant stainless steel as a new type of structural connection material is mainly used in the field of supercritical or ultra-supercritical thermal power generation. In order to clarify the influence of Si content on the structure and properties of this steel,based on 18Cr-Al-Si ferritic heat-resistant stainless steel,the Si content of two groups of different components is added.Through the test methods such as room temperature tensile test and high temperature oxidation test,meanwhile,with the help of metallurgical microscope(OM),scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and other characterization methods,the structure and properties of different Si content test steels were systematically analyzed. The results show that the increase of Si content will refine the grain size of ferrite and increase the amount of M23C6,the tensile strength and yield strength of the test steel will increase,and the elongation will decrease. The fracture mode will change from ductile to tough-brittle mixed mode. 1.35Si steel has greater mass gain,this is because more M23C6 carbides are precipitated in the steel,thereby reducing the content of Cr dissolved in the matrix and forming the oxide film,and decreasing its high-temperature oxidation resistance.

Precipitates, microstructure and properties of Ti-IF steel with high plastic strain ratio
In order to study the effect of hot rolling and final product precipitates on the plastic strain ratio of Ti-IF steel, The precipitation behavior of micro-alloyed carbides during hot rolling and galvanized annealing of two Ti-IF steels at different hot-rolling heating temperatures were studied by universal testing machine, transmission electron microscope (TEM), energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS) and electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD) analysis methods combined with thermodynamic calculation. The results showed that the size of the precipitates of hot-rolled coils increased with the decrease of hot-rolling heating temperature, the size of the precipitates of Ti4C2S2 and its composite with Cu2S increased from 50-100 nm to 100-200 nm. The precipitates are mainly spherical or ellipsoidal distributed in a cellular or continuous chain-like form. With the reduction of sulfur content, hot-rolled coils heated at 1 230 ℃ contain more TiC precipitates with size of 10-20 nm, which can be retained after annealing in galvanizing, while TiC particles are rarely found in hot-rolled or galvanized coils at higher sulfur content. That is, more coarse Ti4C2S2 can be precipitated at higher sulfur content while the precipitation and growth of fine TiC is inhibited. The {111} surface texture ratio of galvanized coil with higher sulfur content reached more than 87.5%, therefore it′s exhibiting higher plastic strain ratio in terms of mechanical properties.

Development of heavy-gauge steel with excellent brittle crack arrest toughness for mega container carriers
For the excellent brittle crack arrest toughness,the heavy-gauge steel for mega container carriers can significantly reduce the hazard factor caused by complex alternating stresses on a large opening structure on the upper deck. By systematically summarizing the evaluation system of crack arrest toughness,comparing and analyzing the development trend of mega container carriers at home and abroad as well as the production status of heavy-gauge crack arrest steel,the microstructural characteristics and possible production process are summarized. The fine-grained equiaxed ferrite,polygonal ferrite,limited refined bainite,combined with the strengthened texture along with the γ orientation at 1/2 thickness are the keys to improving the crack arrest toughness. The NEU-Rolling process proposed by Northeast University can solve the existing problem of producing heavy-gauge steel by a traditional controlled rolling process.

Microstructures and mechanical properties in ultra-thick EH47 steel plates and heat affected zones
A microalloyed low carbon MnCrNiCu steel has been proposed to develop EH47 steel plates via thermomechanical controlled processing(TMCP) route. The effect of hot deformation of austenite or cooling rate on phase transformation in the steel was investigated. Heavy steel plates with maximum thickness of 85 mm were rolled. Submerged arc welding(SMA) and flux-cored arc welding(FCAW)processes were employed in welding trials,respectively, to evaluate the weldability of the thickest plate. Microstructures in the plates and the coarse-grained heat affected zone(CGHAZ) were characterized. Ductile-to-brittle transition temperatures(DBTTs) in the plates were measured based on a series of instrumented Charpy V notch(CVN) impact tests, followed by the determination of the local cleavage fracture stresses(σf). Microhardness and CVN impact toughness in the heat affected zone(HAZ) produced by either SMA or FCAW were also tested. Full thickness crack tip open displacement(CTOD) in the mother plate or the weld joints was tested at -10 ℃ leading to evaluation on the crack-initiation toughness(Kc) in the ultra-thick plate or the weld joints. A temperature dependency of crack-arrest toughness(Kca)in the ultra-thick plate was determined based on a series of large scale double tension(DT)tests across the entire thickness of the ultra-thick plate. The results show that:a mixture of polygonal ferrite(PF)+acicular ferrite(AF)associated with dispersed martensite-austenite constituents was produced in the plates. An increase in σf leads to a decrease in DBTT. The critical events of cleavage fracture during the CVN testing and DT crack arrest testing are identical being grain-sized cracks. In comparison with the CGHAZ where quasi-polygonal(QPF)+AF are produced by SMA,cleavage crack can be initiated more easily in the CGHAZ by FCAW due to the formation of brittle GB. As a result,Kc associated with the latter CGHAZ is lower than the former. Kca at -10 ℃ is determined being 7 140 N/mm3/2indicating satisfactory crack arrestability in the mother plate.

Effect of electron beam melting on carbide of high speed steel
The fine and dispersed carbides are the guarantee of the excellent performance of high-speed steel, but the complex alloy composition leads to coarse carbides and severe segregation in the as-cast high-speed steel. In order to explore the effect of electron beam melting on as-cast high-speed steel and improve the structure and carbide state of high-speed steel, electron beam melting technology to prepare M35 high-speed steel and characterize its composition and structure was used. The results show that the average dendrite spacing in EBM-M35 high-speed steel is 20 μm, the size of carbides is fine, and they are evenly distributed in the structure. The main types are MC and M2C, and the M2C carbides change from lamellar to fibrous. During heat treatment of as-cast EBM-M35 high-speed steel, it was found that the carbide fractured and spheroidized after being kept at 1 180 ℃ for 30 min to achieve the effect of refining the carbide and dispersing the carbide in the structure. Furthermore, the fracture and spheroidization of carbides in EBM-M35 high-speed steel can be completed at a lower temperature or shorter heat treatment time, and the microstructure optimization of as-cast high-speed steel can be completed at a lower cost. It provides a more excellent basis for the deformation and refinement of as-cast high-speed steel.

Mechanical behavior of an as-forged austenite-based low-density steel under high-speed impact loading at cryogenic temperature
In order to evaluate the ability of the as-forged austenite-based low-density steel to resist high-speed impact loading at low temperature,a low-temperature and high-speed impact test using a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) apparatus at -50 ℃ and engineering strain rate of about 4 300 s-1 was carried out on an as-forged austenite-based low-density steel sample of Fe-28.13Mn-10.04Al-1.05C (Mn28Al10) with dimensions of ø3.94 mm×2.88 mm. The mechanical behavior of the steel at low-temperature and high-speed impact loading was studied. The result showed that,the impacted sample experienced elastic deformation of about 18 μs,compression plastic deformation of about 110 μs,tensile plastic deformation of about 20 μs and fracture under the above-mentioned experimental process. The plastic energy and the adiabatic temperature rise of the impacted sample before fracture were about 1 558 J/cm3 and 178 ℃,respectively. The stress-strain curve of the impacted sample showing a typical strain-strengthening characteristic,and the existence of adiabatic temperature rise made the stress-strain curve showed fluctuation phenomenon. The impacted sample was broken down into three fragments,which were induced mainly by compression plastic deformation and tensile plastic deformation. The fracture showed compression zone and tensile zone,both of which belong to ductile fracture characterized by the dimple. The substructures of the deformation zone near the compression zone and the tensile zone were all high-density movable dislocations. The dislocation density of the compression deformation zone is lower than that of the tension deformation zone,and the length and width of the high-density dislocation in the compression deformation zone were larger than that in the tension deformation zone. The deformation mechanism of the as-forged austenite-based low-density steel of Mn28Al10 at -50 ℃ and engineering strain rate of about 4 300 s-1 was dislocation slip.

Influence of notch on fatigue properties of nitrided CrNiW steel in very high cycle regime
In order to study the influence of notch sensitivity on fatigue properties of nitrided CrNiW steel,a smooth specimen and two notched specimens with concentration factor Kt=1.20 and Kt=1.55 were designed,respectively. The very high cycle fatigue tests were carried out by using nitrided CrNiW steel. The microstructure of the fatigue specimen was observed by SEM. The relationship of notch fatigue factor Kf,notch sensitivity index q and number of cycles to failure Nf were analyzed. The results show that,the case-nitriding has little effect on the improvement of fatigue strength of steel. For the smooth specimen and the notch specimen with Kt=1.20,the failure modes can be classified as surface induced failure and the interior induced failure where the defects are limited in the non-nitriding area. For the notch specimen with Kt=1.55,interior failure induced by the inhomogeneous matrix area within the nitrided layer is observed,which is a new failure characteristic. The duplex S-N property of smooth specimen is not obvious. However,there is a duplex S-N property with surface induced failure and interior induced failure as Kt=1.20,and there is a duplex S-N property only with surface induced failure which occurs in the short life regime and the VHCF regime as Kt=1.55. With the increase of Kt,the phenomenon of multiple interior crack sites is replaced by the single interior crack site,and the interior defect position gradually moves towards the surface of specimen,and the shape of fisheye first approximately exhibits the oblate with major axis at x direction,followed by the circular shape,and then the elliptical shape with major axis at y direction. The Kt has a large effect on fatigue life with surface failure,but has a little effect on fatigue life with interior failure.

Dendritic morphology and characteristic parameters during solidification of Fe-C alloy with phase field model
In order to realize the quantitative characterization of the dendrite morphology during the alloy solidification process,reveal the influence of solute distribution and undercooling on the microsegregation in the solidification front,and then carry out the quantitative study of the liquid phase permeability between solidification dendrites,the phase field model is adopted to discuss the microstructure and characteristic parameters of Fe-0.5%C alloy during solidification,and the fractal dimension and dimensionless circumference were introduced to quantitatively analyze the dendrite morphology,microsegregation and mush zone permeability. The results show that the fractal dimension and dimensionless circumference can be used to estimate the complexity of dendrite morphology quantitatively. The fractal dimension increases from 1.28 to 1.791,and the dimensionless circumference increases from 2.39 to 12.6 when the undercooling increases from 20 to 27 K. With increasing undercooling,the solute concentration in both the central axis of dendrite and the solid/liquid interface increase,and the diffusion layer thickness at the dendrite tip decreases,i.e.,the segregation ratio between dendrites increases. Taking as the tortuosity factors of the dendrite in liquid,the fractal dimension and dimensionless circumference were used to estimate the mush permeability during solidification. Compared the fractal dimension,the dimensionless circumference is reliable in estimating the permeability with the value of 1.36×10-15-1.75×10-13 m2 for the given undercoolings.

Influence of Ca treatment on application of rare earth in HAZ during high heat input welding progress
To make clear the influence of Ca treatment on the effect of Rare Earth (RE) to improve the toughness of Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) in C-Mn steel,Gleeble was used to simulate the welding thermal cycle process with a heat input of 339 kJ/cm. The differences in inclusion,microstructure and low-temperature impact toughness in HAZ between RE treated steel and Ca-RE treated steel were compared. At last,the influence of Ca on the role of RE in HAZ was studied. It was found that Ca can promote the function of RE to improve the low temperature impact toughness in HAZ. The inclusions in HAZ of RE treated steel transformed from complex inclusions containing RExOy to that of RE and Ca when treated with Ca,thereby decreasing the total amount of inclusions. Ca treatment also resulted in the increase in the mean size of the inclusions from 1.5 to 2.2 μm,while a decrease in the aspect ratio from 1.5 to 1.4. Although Ca had little effect on the content of acicular ferrite in HAZ of RE-treated steel,however,the inhibition of RE on prior austenite grain coarsening in HAZ was enhanced by Ca treatment,with a smaller grain size than that of the RE treated steel. The low-temperature impact toughness in HAZ of RE treated steel was obviously improved by Ca treatment When the heat input was 339 kJ/cm.

Effect of nickel interlayer thickness on characteristics of 316L/EH40 composite interface
In order to explore the influence of interlayer thickness on the microstructure and properties of composite materials, four kinds of composite samples with different thickness of Ni interlayer (0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 mm) were set up. Hot compression test of samples with the same thickness ratio was carried out under the same conditions. The microstructure of the interface after compression was analyzed by metallographic microanalysis technology, and the diffusion of elements at the interface was analyzed by energy spectrum analysis. The mechanical properties of the interface were tested by microhardness test and the tensile properties of the material were tested by tensile test. The results show that with the increase of the thickness of the nickel interlayer, the bonding interface became smooth, and the barrier effect of diffusion of carbon, chromium and other elements became better. When the thickness reached a certain degree, the mechanical properties of plate decreased with the increase of interlayer thickness. Besides, the hardness value near the 0.05 mm Ni layer appeared obvious mutation, and the change trend of hardness value near the other three thicknesses of interlayer was almost the same. Among them, the diffusion behavior of elements could be block well by the 0.10 mm thick Ni interlayer, and the excellent tensile property(512 MPa) at the interface of materials could also be ensured.
