Weldability of 1 000 MPa Grade Ultra-low Carbon Bainitic Steel

摘要

Maximum hardness test in weld heat-affected zone (HAZ),oblique Y-groove cracking test and mechanical property test of welding joint of 1 000 MPa grade ultra-low carbon bainitic steel were carried out,so as to research the weldability of the steel.The results show that the steel has lower cold cracking sensitivity,and preheating tem-perature of 100 ℃ can help completely eliminate cold cracks,generating good process weldability.The increase of preheating temperature can reduce the hardening degree of heat-affected zone.The strength of welding joint decreases and hardness reduces when heat inputs increase,and excellent mechanical properties can be obtained when low weld-ing heat inputs are used.Fine lath bainites of different orientations combined with a few granular bainites that effec-tively split the original coarse austenite grains are the foundation of good properties.
