RESUMO
ABSTRACT In the present work the microstructural characterization of a single-pass weld of 9Cr1MoVNb P91 steel performed by the flux-cored arc welding (FCAW) process in the “as welding” condition has been carried out by means of transmission electron microscopy. P91 steel offers a good weldability, but the mechanical properties of the welded joints are found to be inferior compared to the base metal. The heat affected zone (HAZ) of these types of steels is ~ 4 mm making it difficult to extract carbon replicas and thin foil to study the microstructure generated in each sub-zone of the ZAC: coarse grained ZAC (CGZAC), fine grained ZAC (FGZAC) and intercritical ZAC (ICZAC). Nev-ertheless, it was possible to extract replicas from each region to identify precipitates and using a focused ion beam (FIB-SEM), thin films could be extracted from a specific area to characterize the matrix microstructure. The precipitates present in each subzone of the ZAC were characterized as well as how the dissolution of M23C6 affects the matrix. At low peak temperatures and low heating / cooling rates such as those characterizing the fine grain zones (ICHAZ and FGHAZ) the M23C6 carbides were found to be partially dissolved and in contact with retained austenite. On the other hand, in the areas with the highest peak temperatures and high heating/cooling rates (CGHAZ and fusion zone) thin films of retained austenite were found on the austenitic grain boundaries and on the martensítica lath. On the other hand, in the areas with the highest peak temperatures and high heating / cooling rates (ZACGG and ZF) thin films of retained austenite on the austenitic grain edges and the martensite laths were found.
