Abstract:This research aims to investigate the effect Si on microstructures and mechanical properties of normalized pressure vessel steel A517 Grade Q. The Si contents were varied from 0.5, 0.9, 1.2, and 1.6. The normalizing process was carried out at 920 °C in 10 minutes. The microstructures were characterized by optical light microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and The mechanical tests were conducted by hardness, tensile, wear, and impact testing machine. The microstructures and mechanical properties w… Show more
