Detection method for forming nanocrystals on surface of 690 high-strength steel
Technical Field
The invention relates to a material detection method, in particular to a detection method for forming nanocrystals on the surface of 690 high-strength steel.
Background
With the growing population and the constant consumption of onshore oil and gas resources, the ocean has become the main field of oil and gas development in the world. The ocean platform is comprehensive ocean engineering equipment integrating oil field exploration, oil gas treatment, power generation, heat supply, crude oil product storage and transportation and personnel living, and is a working base for implementing seabed oil gas exploration and exploitation. The current trend of the world ocean oil and gas development towards deep sea and polar region is that higher requirements are put on the comprehensive performance of the steel for the ocean platform, and the steel for the ocean platform is important in the corrosion resistance of the ocean atmosphere and the seawater besides high strength, high toughness, fatigue resistance, lamellar tearing resistance, good weldability and cold processing performance. Some countries in the united states, japan and europe have since long begun to study steels for offshore oil platforms and developed a number of steel grades suitable for use in deep and polar regions, such as a514 in the ASTM specification, the wetten 80 in the JFE standard and 690 in the DNV specification. China has no specific steel standard for ocean platforms, and certain technical gap exists between the steel for the ultrahigh-strength ocean platforms with yield strength of more than 690 MPa and the steel for the ultrahigh-strength ocean platforms abroad. 690 high-strength steel is important marine steel, is very easy to generate corrosion damage and even corrosion fatigue fracture under the action of ocean tidal range, and can seriously threaten the safety of a marine platform.
690 high strength steel is widely used in the industries of ocean engineering, ships, port machinery and the like because of having excellent performances of high strength, high toughness, fatigue resistance, lamellar tearing resistance and the like, and good welding performance and cold processing performance. In recent years, with the increasing of world energy demand and the reduction of exploitable oil and gas resources, mankind has to explore and develop the highly acidic oil and gas resources which are rich in strong corrosive environments such as CO2, H2S, Cl and the like in the super-huge type marine natural gas field, and the super-huge type marine natural gas field is characterized by complex geological structure, high temperature, high pressure and high corrosivity. Therefore, the demand for 690 high strength steel is increasing at home and abroad.
Failure behaviors (e.g., contact fatigue failure, frictional wear, etc.) occur on the surface of the test specimen due to most engineering materials, and these failure behaviors are highly sensitive to the surface texture and properties of the material. Therefore, the structure and the performance of the surface of the material are optimized, and the overall service life of the engineering material can be effectively prolonged. Nanocrystalline material refers to crystalline material having a grain size on the order of nanometers. Such solids are polycrystalline bodies composed of structural units (predominantly crystals) of at least a few nanometers in size (in one direction). Since the nano-crystalline grains are extremely fine, a large number of atoms are located at the interfaces between the crystalline grains, making the interfaces a non-negligible structural unit. The unique structural characteristic enables the nanocrystalline material to be a new material different from polycrystalline and amorphous materials, so that the material has a plurality of excellent performances in the aspects of mechanics, magnetism, dielectricity, superconductivity, photons and the like. Particularly, when the grains are refined to the nanometer level, many mechanical properties of the material can be obviously changed, such as the strength and the hardness are improved, and the superplasticity phenomenon also occurs in some materials. Therefore, whether the nanocrystals are formed or not becomes one of the important indexes for corrosion prevention of key parts of the marine platform using 690 high-strength steel as a material.
At present, no nano-crystal detection macroscopic detection method for metal materials exists in China, and only the observation of local grain size can be carried out by shooting a sample through a transmission electron microscope, and meanwhile, through electron diffraction, when the diffraction pattern of the nano-crystal detection macroscopic detection method is in a concentric ring form, the nano-crystal can be formed in the observed area of the sample, but the method has the defects of overlong detection period, damage to the surface of the material, high contingency, large error in the measured grain size and the like, so the detection method cannot be applied in actual production, and therefore a new detection method for detecting whether the nano-crystal is formed on the surface of 690 high-strength steel is urgently needed in the actual production process.

Examples
A detection method for forming nanocrystals on the surface of 690 high-strength steel comprises the following steps:
several pieces 690 of high tensile steel samples were prepared.
The power density of a plurality of 690 high-strength steel samples is respectively 1.53GW/cm2、1.98 GW/cm2、2.77 GW/cm2、4.07 GW/cm2、5.09 GW/cm2And carrying out a laser shock peening process.

The index of a crystal plane represents not only a certain crystal plane but also a group of crystal planes parallel to each other. In addition, the interplanar spacing and distribution of atoms on the interplanar planes within the crystal are identical except that planes with different spatial orientations can be grouped into the same family of planes, denoted by { hkl }, which represents the sum of several sets of equivalent planes linked by symmetry.
