Abstract

Experimental methods, such as OM, SEM and X-EDS, were used to study the microstructure of X80 pipeline steel. It mainly consists of fine acicular ferrite (AF). X80 pipeline steel possesses high strength and impact energy at-30°C approaches to 400J. Grain refinement and precipitation hardening are the main reasons for high strength, and toughness improvement can be attributed to grain refinement and particular microstructural characteristics of AF.
