The experimental results show that two hardness peaks present on the second-stage ageing-hardening curve when the first-stage ageing is dealt with comparatively lower temperature than the conventional one. The first peak is caused by dispersive and evenly distributed G.P. zones, while η ′phases and coarsened G.P. zones contribute to the second peak. Tensile strength of experimental alloy raises 9.6% （33.2 MPa） and SCC susceptibility decreases 38.9% by applying the second peak ageing regime instead of conventional T73. AI-Zn-Mg alloy obtains high strength and SCC resistance due to its finely dispersive matrix precipitates （MPts）, coarsened and discontinuous grain boundary precipitates （GBPs）, as well as the narrow precipitate free zone （PFZ） in the second peak ageing condition. 2017 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of The editorial office of Journal of Materials Science ＆ Technology.展开更多

The SCC susceptibilities of X70 pipeline steel before and after quenching in the simulating solutions were analyzed using slow stain rate test （SSRT） and potentiodynamic polarization technique to investigate the SCC electrochemical mechanism of different microstructures further. The results show that SCC appears in the original microstructure and the quenched microstructure as the polarization potential decreases. Hydrogen revolution accelerates SCC of the two tested materials within the range of-850 mV to -1200 mV vs. SCE. Microstructural hardening and grain coarsening also increase SCC. The SCC mechanisms are different, anodic dissolution is the key of causing SCC as the polarization potential is higher than the null current potential, and hydrogen embrittlement will play a more important role to SCC as the polarization potential lower than the null current potential.展开更多
文摘在模拟近中性p H土壤腐蚀环境的NS4溶液中,采用慢应变速率拉伸(SSRT)试验、电化学极化和SEM观察,研究了外加阴极极化电位对X80管线钢近中性p H土壤应力腐蚀开裂(SCC)行为的影响。结果表明:X80管线钢在近中性p H土壤环境中SCC敏感性较高,开裂模式为穿晶SCC;SCC机制随外加阴极极化电位不同而改变,外加阴极极化电位高于-900 m V时,SCC受阳极溶解和氢脆混合控制,外加阴极极化电位低于-900 m V时,SCC为氢脆控制;随着外加电位负向增加,慢拉伸试样的断面收缩率、延伸率和断裂时间降低,SCC敏感性增加,在实际管道阴极保护工程中要避免过保护。
