Three high strength Nb-, Ti- and Ti+V- bearing S690QL steels were welded to investigate and compare the effects of microalloy addition on HAZ toughness. Charpy V notch impact tests from three microalloyed welds under different cooling rates have been performed. Fractographic examination shows that several factors including large-sized grain, upper bainite or hard second phase, interact to determine the brittle fracture mode and impaired toughness of Nb bearing weld at high heat input. In contrast to this reduced toughness, Ti bearing welds exhibits satisfied toughness regardless of at a fast or slow cooling rate as a result of limited austenite grain and refined favourable intragranular acicular ferrite structure. Moreover, in the case of such refined structure as matrix, TiN particles are found to be irrelevant to the fracture process and crystallographic misorientation results also confirms that high angle boundaries between fine ferrites plates provide much effective barrier for crack propagation and contribute to improved toughness.
Hydrogen can have an extreme degradation effects in steels, particularly concerning the mechanical properties. These effects can lead to hydrogen assisted cracking in micro-alloyed high strength steels during fabrication and/or operation in industrial applications. The Carrier Gas Hot Extraction method, which functionally combines a mass spectrometer with a Thermal Desorption Analysis process, was used for the detection of ultra-low diffusible hydrogen concentrations in the material specimens. The work shows the interaction between hydrogen and lattice defects in different micro-alloyed materials and HAZ. These steels were prepared in a quenched and tempered condition and in a thermo-mechanically rolled condition. The trapping characteristics of two steel grades, S690QL and S700MC, were studied with respect to the activation energy dependent on carbon content and micro-alloying elements such as Ti, Nb, Mo, Cr and V. The two steel grades exhibited several types of traps: carbide formations, dislocations and/or grain boundaries were common, which can influence activation energy and hydrogen solubility. The type and dimension of inclusions or particles also affected the hydrogen trapping behavior. A decrease of carbon and specific alloying elements in MC steels led to a change in the activation energy binding the trapped hydrogen. This thermo-mechanically hot
rolled steel revealed an increased interaction between hydrogen
and precipitations. The higher carbon content in the
quenched and tempered steel led to a higher interaction
between hydrogen and iron carbide, specifically in the
martensitic phase. Furthermore,the trapping behavior in HAZ showed a significant increase in activation energy, especially in the coarse grained microstructure.
Wasserstoff kann in Überlagerung mit Beanspruchungen zu einem unerwarteten Werkstoffversagen in höherfesten Stählen führen (wasserstoffunterstützte Schädigung von Metallen, starke Abnahme des Verformungsvermögens). Hierbei besteht in der Schweißtechnik die Gefahr einer wasserstoffunterstützten Kaltrissbildung. Der Fokus des Vortrags liegt auf das Wasserstoffbindungsverhalten (Trapping) im Grundwerkstoff und im schweißsimulierten Gefüge. Die Ergebnisse zeigen Unterschiede hinsichtlich der Bindungsenergie und des Fallencharakters. Anhand dieser lassen sich Rückschlüsse ziehen über eine effektive Wärmebehandlung zur Wasserstoffreduktion im Gefüge. Das Ziel ist eine Reduzierung des Risikos einer wasserstoffunterstützten Rissbildung.
Hydrogen can have an extreme degradation effects in steels, particularly concerning the mechanical properties. These effects can lead to hydrogen-assisted cracking in microalloyed high-strength steels during fabrication and/or operation in industrial applications. In order to study these effects, electrochemically charged tensile specimens were tested to elucidate the degradation of their properties. The carrier gas hot extraction (CGHE) method, which functionally combines a mass spectrometer with a thermal desorption analysis (TDA) process, was used for the detection of ultra-low diffusible hydrogen concentrations in the material specimens. The mass spectrometer provided rapid and automatic determination of hydrogen concentration, whereas the TDA presented the activation energy within the respective test specimen at the specific temperature. Additionally, specimen temperature was carefully monitored to reduce the evaluation error for local effusion peaks. A quenching and deformation dilatometer was used for the analysis of typical heat-affected zones during the welding process for a high reproducibility of the homogenous microstructures that were studied. The present work shows the interaction between hydrogen and lattice defects in different microalloyed materials and heat-affected zones of weldable fine-grained steels. These steels were prepared in a quenched and tempered condition and in a thermo-mechanically rolled condition. These preparations were made according to German standard DIN EN 10025-6 and to DIN EN 10149-2, respectively. The trapping characteristics of two steel grades, S690QL and S700MC, were studied with respect to the activation energy dependent on carbon content and microalloying elements such as Ti, Nb, Mo, Cr, and V. The two steel grades exhibited several types of traps: carbide formations, dislocations, and/or grain boundaries were common, which can influence activation energy and hydrogen solubility. The type and dimension of inclusions or particles also affected the hydrogen trapping behavior. A decrease of carbon and specific alloying elements in thermo-mechanically hot rolled steels led to a change in the activation energy binding the trapped hydrogen. This thermo-mechanically hot rolled steel revealed an increased interaction between hydrogen and precipitations. The higher carbon content in the quenched and tempered steel led to a higher interaction between hydrogen and iron carbide, specifically in the martensitic phase. Furthermore, the trapping behavior in heat-affected zones showed a significant increase in activation energy, especially in the coarse-grained microstructure. These previously mentioned various effects were studied to better understand the degradation of mechanical properties in these two steels.
High strength structural steels are susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement. A critical combination of stress, amount of diffusible hydrogen and microstructure is believed to cause cold cracking. Especially during welding of high strength structural steels high tensile residual stresses may develop. Therefore, a feasibility study was conducted using synchrotron X-ray diffraction in order to analyze the stress–strain behavior during tensile loading. For that purpose two types of steel showing different hardening mechanisms were used. On the one hand a thermo-mechanically treated S1100MC and on the other hand a quenched and tempered S1300Q were chosen. The samples were electrochemically charged with hydrogen and subsequently stored in liquid nitrogen to prevent effusion. Tensile tests of the samples were conducted in a special load frame allowing for tilting the samples while applying constant loads. High energy synchrotron radiation was used for energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDXRD) analysis in transmission geometry. This method offers the possibility for measuring several diffraction lines of all contributing crystalline phases of the material. Strains as well as stresses applying the sin²ψ-method were determined for varying load situations. This feasibility study shows how the interaction of hydrogen and the stress/strain response may be assessed by diffraction methods. Examples are presented showing that hydrogen alters the load distribution as well as the strain behavior between different lattice planes in high strength steels.
