The pipeline steel as an application in pipeline construction must have good comprehensive mechanical properties due to the harsh environment of the pipeline engineering. So this experiment takes the X80 pipeline steel as the research object, the thermal stability second phase particles which would not be dissolved or aggregated at high temperature will be expected by means of adding nanomagnesium oxide into the steel with the method of carrier dispersion addition. The effect of nanometer magnesium oxide addition on the cast microstructure of X80 pipeline steel was analysed. The results show that the cast microstructure is consist of the ferrite and a small amount bainite. And the bainite is distributed at the boundary of the ferrite grains. When adding 0.02 wt% nanometer magnesium oxides, the number of bainite increases significantly in the cast microstructure, which is mostly distributed at the boundary of the ferrite grains.

This experiment takes the X80 pipeline steel as the research object, the thermal stability second phase particles which would not be dissolved or aggregated at high temperature will be expected by means of adding nanocalcium oxide into the steel with the method of carrier dispersion addition. The effect of nanocalcium oxide addition on the cast microstructure of X80 pipeline steel was analysed. The results show that the cast microstructure is consist of the ferrite and a small amount bainite. And the bainite is distributed at the boundary of the ferrite grains. When adding 0.02 wt% nanocalcium oxides, there is more bainite in the microstructure by contrast. The number of the acicular ferrite significantly increases in the cast microstructure, and the grains become more fine and uniform. Simultaneously, the granular bainite is uniformly distributed at the grain boundary and edge of the ferrite.

Nanometer calcium and magnesium oxides were added into molten steel by the carrier method in the experiment. The experiment takes the X80 pipeline steel as the research object and analyses the effect of nanometer calcium and magnesium oxides addition on the inclusions in the cast microstructure of the X80 pipeline steel. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to analyse the morphology and distribution of the inclusions in the cast microstructure of the X80 pipeline steel. The results reveal that there are a small amount of inclusions in the sample of no nanometer oxides addition. With the amount of the nanoMgO oxide addition rising, the number of the inclusions in the sample firstly increases and then decreases gradually. When adding 0.05 wt% nanoMgO or CaO oxides, the size of the inclusions is big and the aggregation phenomenon appears. When adding 0.02 wt% nanoMgO or CaO oxides, the number of the inclusions in the cast microstructure is the most, whose size is smaller, about 2~4 μm and the inclusions are the most uniformly distributed.

The effects of rare earth addtition of Er on the microstructures and mechanical properties of Mg-9Zn-Zr magnesium alloys were examined. The results showed that the addition of Er resulted in the formation of two types of thermally stable Er-bearing compounds with distinct Zn/Er ratio. The volume fraction of the second-phase particles increased with the increase of Er addition. 2% Er could refine the as-cast microstructure effectively. The yield strength generally increased and the elongation decreased gradually. 0.5% Er-bearing alloy had optimum combined mechanical properties, with the yield strength, tensile strength and elongation being 313MPa, 366MPa and 22%, respectively. Furthermore, addition of Er brought about homogenous deformation behaviour and recrystallization behaviour to the alloy.

The effect of volume fraction of ferrite on the mechanical properties including strength, plasticity and wok hardening was systematically investigated in X80 pipeline steel in order to improve the plasticity. The microstructures with different volume fraction of ferrite and bainite were obtained by heat-treatment processing and the mechanical properties were tested. The work hardening behavior was analyzed by C-J method. The results show that the small amount of ferrite could effectively improve the plasticity. The work hardening ability and the ratio of yield/tensile strength with two phases of ferrite/bainite would be obviously better than that with single phase of bainite. The improvement of plasticity could be attributed to the ferrite in which more plastic deformation was afforded.

Nanometer calcium and magnesium oxides were added into molten steel by the carrier method in the experiment. The experiment takes the X80 pipeline steel as the research object and analyses the effect of nanometer calcium and magnesium oxides addition on the inclusions in the cast microstructure of the X80 pipeline steel. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) were used to analyze the composition of the inclusions in the cast microstructure of the X80 pipeline steel. The result reveals that when no addition of nanooxides, the inclusions in the cast microstructure are the C-Fe-Si-Al-Mn-based inclusions. When adding nanoMgO, the inclusions are mainly the composite oxides of Fe-Mg-Si-O, Fe-Mg-Si-Mn-O and Mg-Si-Mn-Al-O. When adding nanoCaO, the inclusions are mainly the composite oxides of Fe-Ca-Al-O, Fe-Ca-Si-O, Fe-Ca-Si-Mn-O and the composite oxides or sulfides of Fe-Ca-Si-Mn-O-S. There is more Fe in some inclusions and Fe is not uniformly dispersed in the molten steel. As the result, some certain segregation phenomenon takes place.
