The loading capacity of ultralarge container ships has reached 24000 TEUs so far,and to ensure the safe operation of these ships,the maxmium thickness of crack arrest steel used in the upper deck areas reaches 100 mm,...
Cold rolled martensitic sheet steels are achieving more and more applications in car-making because of their ultra-high strength and potential for weight reduction. The relatively low plasticity of ultra-high strength...
A self-developed electromagnetic induction-heating device was used to investigate the variation in the microstructure and properties of X80 pipeline steel in the rapid induction tempering process at different process ...
Separation is a commonly observed phenomenon during drop weight tear testing in high-toughness linepipe steels. Severe separation is harmful because it may cause fracturing or bursting of pipes. In this study, a quant...
Self-shielded flux-cored wire is a convenient and efficient consumable for pipeline field girth welding because of its self-protection characteristic and high deposition rate, especially for remote construction sites ...

The microstmcture and mechanical properties of SA533B low-alloy steel were investigated under different cooling and tempering conditions. Steel plates cooled at 40℃/s and 25℃/min,exibited microstructures of auto-tem...
Oxide metallurgy technology has been developed at Baosteel for improving the heat affected zone toughness of steel plates for high heat input welding. After deoxidation with strong deoxidizers of Mg alloy, the complex...
Excellent heat affected zone(HAZ)toughness technology improved by strong deoxidizers(ETISI)technology has been developed by Baosteel.In the deoxidation process of molten steel by adding strong deoxidizers,the formatio...
Many of the high strength,high toughness steels in use or under development are alloy steels with dislocated lath martensitic structures.These microstructures are visually complex,and are difficult to categorize in th...
The reliability of steel welds becomes more critical issue with increasing steel strength,because brittle phases are more likely to form in the weld metals and heat-affected zone(HAZ) and thereby the toughness and duc...
