摘要
Acicular Ferrite(AF) is beneficial in welds because it provides a tough and strong microstructure.Therefore,much works have been done in the study of the effect of alloying elements and welding conditions aimed at obtaining more AF in the weld metal.However,the knowledge about the nature of AF is limited due to the lack of kinetics researches.In this paper,the kinetic curves of AF transformation in an X65 weld metal were established by means of welding thermal simulation test.The results showed that AF transformation is a typical diffusion process of nucleation and growth with incubation period.AF transformation in weld metal obeys the relationship described by JMA Equation.The effect of welding heat input was also studied.
