Influence of carbon, manganese and nickel on microstructure and properties of strong steel weld metals: Part 1 – Effect of nickel content
Tóm tắt
The effects of increasing the nickel content from 3 to 7 or 9 wt-% were investigated in high strength steel weld metals with 2 wt-% manganese. Nickel additions were beneficial to strength but detrimental to impact toughness. Significant segregation of nickel and manganese to interdendritic regions was observed at the two higher nickel contents. In these weld metals a mainly martensitic microstructure developed at interdendritic regions, whereas bainite was found at dendrite core regions. The microstructural inhomogeneity was due to segregation and the accompanying stabilisation of austenite in solute enriched regions to lower transformation temperatures. With 3 wt-% nickel the microstructure was found to be more homogeneous, with mainly bainite forming. The decrease in impact toughness with increasing nickel content was mainly attributed to the formation of coarse grained coalesced bainite.
