Abstract

The tensile and impact tests were used to study the mechanical properties under different temperatures of 300 mm large-scale angle steel at different positions, especially the tensile strength, yield strength, total elongation and impact toughness in the range of-40 oC to 20 oC. The results showed that different regions had great differences in the microstructures and impact toughness, in which the size of edge region was the smallest and the impact toughness was the best. However, the coarsened grain of heat affected zone at weld region had deteriorated to the low temperature impact toughness. When the impact energy was 34 J, the ductile-brittle transition temperature of weld, center, vertex and edge were-7.2 oC, -33.0 oC, -31.5 oC and far less than-40 oC, respectively. Meanwhile, because the banded structure was detrimental to the ductility, the elongation of rolling direction was lower than vertical direction. The strength of weld region was higher than other locations, but the elongation was obviously decreased.
