TiNbV微合金钢焊接接头HAZ晶粒长大及相变原位观察

Grain growth and phase transformation in the welded joint HAZ of TiNbV microalloyed steel

采用激光共聚焦显微镜原位观察方法,研究了大热输入用TiNbV微合金钢在模拟焊接热循环作用下焊接热影响区(HAZ)晶粒长大过程及相变的规律.热循环过程中加热温度升高至860~980℃时,发生由铁素体和珠光体向奥氏体的转变,1 100℃时,奥氏体晶粒开始有明显长大的趋势,1 300~1 400℃时,晶粒以合并长大方式迅速长大;冷却过程中温度降低至1 400~1 350℃时,晶粒以晶界迁移方式缓慢长大,660~580℃时,发生奥氏体迅速向贝氏体转变,焊接HAZ主要由贝氏体与铁素体组成,贝氏体的尺寸是由奥氏体晶粒大小决定的.热循环高温停留时间延长,奥氏体与贝氏体的形成、终了、转变温度区间均有下降.结果表明,组织中先共析铁素体含量先降低后增加,贝氏体含量降低,多边形铁素体消失,先共析铁素体含量增加,冷却组织趋于均匀粗大.焊接过程中,选择合适的高温停留时间可提高组织中IAF的含量,提高力学性能.

The grain growth and phase transformation in HAZ of TiNbV microalloyed steel under simulated welding thermal cycling were studied by in situ observation method using laser confocal microscope.The results show that the transformation from ferrite and pearlite to austenite is occurred while the heating temperature rises to 860~980℃during thermal cycling.The austenite grain begins to grow obviously while the temperature reaches 1100℃.At the temperature range of 1300~1400℃,the grain grows rapidly with the form of combining.During cooling process,when the temperature declines to 1400~1350℃,the grain grows slowly with the form of grain boundary migrating.When the temperature decreases to 660~580℃,the austenite transforms rapidly to bainite.The content of HAZ is mainly composed of bainite and ferrite.The size of austenite grain determines the maximum size of bainite.The formation,transformation and end temperature range of austenite and bainite decreases with the prolongation of the high temperature residence time.The content of proeutectoid ferrite decreases first and then increases,the content of bainite decreases,the polygonal ferrite disappears,and the cooling structure tends to be uniform and coarse.During the welding process,the choosing of appropriate high temperature residence time can increase the content of IAF in HAZ and improve the mechanical properties of the joints.
