Background technology
At present, along with the fast development of national economy, the state of the art of the Infrastructure such as engineering machinery, bridge, building improves constantly, and its intensity to structural steel, toughness, plasticity and welding property etc. require more and more higher.But along with intensity rank improves, the danger of structure generation brittle failure increases.
Generally, the yield strength of material and tensile strength present positively related relation (yield tensile ratio is yield strength and tensile strength ratio).Dependency structure steel standards and design, while constantly revising strength of materials rank, also carries out strict restriction to Ductility Indexes such as toughness, plasticity and yield tensile ratios.Experimental study and engineering practice all show, yield tensile ratio is an important mechanical performance index of relational structure security.Yield tensile ratio is higher, namely yield strength and tensile strength spacing too small, material deforms shortly can rupture.But the material that yield tensile ratio is low, easily produces viscous deformation under external broach effect, because its tensile strength is high, material can not rupture easily.Therefore viscous deformation can as the sign of fracture, the time arriving fracture is longer, and the security of material is higher.For ensureing the security of structure design, requiring that material has enough viscous deformation before breaking, namely requiring that material has low yield tensile ratio.
Low welding crack sensibility high-strength steel welds when not preheating or low preheating and does not occur crackle, is called CF (CrackFree) steel in the world.The principal feature of this type of steel has low Pcm value, low-carbon-equivalent, excellent welding property, has the features such as low carbon content, high strength, high tenacity simultaneously; Its main production process generally has TMCP, TMCP+ tempering or modified (quenching+tempering).
TMCP or " TMCP+ tempering " high strength CF steel, organization type is acicular ferrite or ferrite bainite, yield tensile ratio higher (generally between 0.88 ~ 0.93).As yield tensile ratio will be reduced, the cooling rate after steel plate controlled rolling need be reduced to obtain the granular bainite of some amount, but its intensity and low-temperature flexibility there is the trend of reduction.Modified high strength CF steel, the organization type after tempering is tempered sorbite, and yield tensile ratio is higher (generally between 0.90 ~ 0.95) also; Meanwhile, in order to ensure quenched and tempered steel hardening capacity, under the prerequisite suitably improving C content, generally need to add the alloying elements such as Ni, Cr, Mo, Cu, the raising of C content and the interpolation of alloying element, increase Pcm index and carbon equivalent Ceq value, have a negative impact to the welding property of material.
