The HIC experiment was conducted in hydrogen sulfide（H_2S）-saturated solution. The experimental results show that the steel with GB ＋ AF and QF microstructure present excellent corrosion resistance to HIC, whereas the phases of bainite lath and martensite/austenite in LB ＋ GB microstructure are responsible for poor corrosion resistance. Compared with ferrite phase, the bainite microstructure exhibits higher strength and crack susceptibility of HIC. The AF ＋ GB microstructure is believed to have the best combination of mechanical properties and resistance to HIC among the designed steels.展开更多
