Microstructure and microhardness evolution of thermal simulated HAZ of Q&P980 steel
The microstructure evolution and microhardness of Q&P980 steel heat-affected zone (HAZ) was investigated systematically using weld thermal simulation technique. The phase transformation temperatures were determined by the dilatometry. Ac1 and Ac3 were observed to be quite constant, 750 and 935 °...

The microstructure evolution and microhardness of Q&P980 steel heat-affected zone (HAZ) was investigated systematically using weld thermal simulation technique. The phase transformation temperatures were determined by the dilatometry. Ac1 and Ac3 were observed to be quite constant, 750 and 935 °C, at the heating rates higher than 150 °C/s. The different regions of HAZ were obtained varying the peak heating temperature in the simulation experiments. With the peak temperature increased from 300 to 1350 °C, the microstructure evolved from martensite/ferrite/retained austenite to tempered martensite/carbides/ferrite, then finally turned to single martensite phase with fine lath or coarse lath morphology. The volume percentage of retained austenite reduced dramatically from 13% to 2% due to retained austenite transformation at high temperature. The lowest microhardness of 268 HV was obtained in sub-critical HAZ and the highest microhardness of 485 HV was obtained in fine grained HAZ. The welding continuous cooling transformation (CCT) diagram of Q&P980 steel corresponding coarse grained HAZ was constructed by dilatometric methods. There was ferrite, bainite and martensite transformation regions when the cooling rates ranged from 0.1 to 100 °C/s. The microhardness kept at a high certain level of 450–460 HV at high cooling rates (≥20 °C/s) because of the formation of martensite. By the CCT diagram determined, the effect of cooling rate on microstructure and microhardness can be deduced and utilized for optimizing the welding parameters. |
