This study investigates the differences in microstructure and mechanical properties of a heavy-wall ferrite/bainite dual-phase X70 pipeline steel plate. It is found that the surface and mid-thickness layers exhibit higher strength and hardness, while the quarter layer exhibits higher plasticity. The refined grain size and strong fiber texture contribute to the enhanced strength and hardness. The analysis of strain-hardening behavior reveals that the mid-thickness layer has a higher strain-hardening capacity at the beginning of plastic strain, leading to deformation instability and reduced material plasticity.
The ever-increasing demand for oil & gas exploration from land to subsea necessitates using higher-strength and high-ductility heavy-wall thickness pipes, which may increase the microstructural inhomogeneity along the steel plate sections, ultimately impacting the mechanical properties. In this work, the differences in microstructure and mechanical properties between the through-thickness layers of a heavy-wall ferrite/bainite (F/B) dual-phase (DP) X70 pipeline steel plate were studied. The results showed that the size of the ferrite grain and the volume fraction of bainite increased from the surface layer to the mid-thickness layer of the DP X70 pipeline steel plate. The surface and mid-thickness layers had a lower uniform elongation and higher strength and hardness. In comparison, the quarter layer had higher uniform elongation and lower strength and hardness. The refined grain size and the strong {001}<110> texture were responsible for enhanced in strength and hardness. The higher g-fiber texture at the quarter layer favored the higher plasticity. The analysis results of strain-hardening behaviors based on the modified C-J model showed that the mid-thickness layer had a higher strain-hardening capacity at the beginning of the plastic strain, leading to deformation instability and reduced material plasticity. The sur -face layer maintained a high hardening exponent even at high plastic strains, which facilitated the deformation properties of the material. The results provide a basis for evaluating the influence of microstructural factors on the strength and plasticity of heavy wall X70 pipeline steel and the coordination mechanism of micro deformation in DP steels.(c) 2023 The Authors.
