By means of metallographic examination, scanning electron microscope examination, hardness test, impact test, bend test, tensile test and so on, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the steel pipes were investigated. The test results show that welding defects such as crack and blowholes are not found. The microstructure of the welded metal is Widmanstatten ; the microstructure of the heat affected zone is Widmanstatten, pearlite and proeutectoid ferrite, and the base metal is pearlite and ferrite. The highest of the metal Brinell hardness is in the weld seam, followed by the heat affected zone, and the lowest is in the base metal. The microstructure of the weld metal is coarse, which results in that the toughness of the weld is the lowest, but the hardness of the welds is the highest in the weld zone. The bend angles of the weld metal present a mountainous shape with the surface energy. Only when the surface energy is of the best value, the mechanical properties of the weld metal is the best.展开更多
