    Effect of the chemical homogeneity of a quenched and tempered C-Mn steel pipe on the mechanical 3 properties and phase transformations.

    Seamless steel pipes for application in the oil and gas industries are manufactured from quenched and tempered steel. Aiming to meet the required characteristics, it is necessary that the microstructure and the mechanical properties are homogeneous along the wall thickness of the pipes, which is even more critical for thick wall pipes. Considering the seamless steel pipe manufacturing process, any chemical segregation along the thickness could affect the phase transformation kinetics during heat treatments and, consequently, microstructure and mechanical properties. In this context, this pioneer work when evaluating the effect of the chemical homogeneity of a seamless pipe on the mechanical properties and phase transformations. The studied pipe was manufactured by a C-Mn steel designed for oil and gas industry applications. Two regions of the pipe wall were analyzed - a region close to the inner surface and another near the outer surface. The steel was subjected to quenching and tempering heat treatments. Scanning electron and optical microscopy techniques were used to characterize the resultant microstructures. Microhardness and Charpy impact tests were performed aiming to analyze the pipe mechanical behavior in the studied regions. In addition, dilatometric tests were performed in order to determine the continuous cooling transformation diagrams of these regions.
