Impact of Vanadium Addition on API X100 Steel

Corrosion Behavior of API X100 Steel Material in a Hydrogen Sulfide Environment

Recently, the API X100 steel has emerged as an important pipeline material for transportation of crude oil and natural gas. At the same time, the presence of significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in natural gas and crude oil cause pipeline materials to corrode, which affects their integrity. In this study, the effect of H2S concentration on the corrosion behavior of API X100 in 3.5% NaC...

Inclusion Shape Control and its Effects on the Impact Property of the API X42 Steel

In recent years many different ways have been investigated by steel producers to increase ductility, impact strength and formability of steels. More important ways are steels with very low amounts of inclusion, small size inclusions and modified inclusions. In this study, experiments have been performed on the API-X42 steel produced by the electric arc furnace in Mobarekeh Steel Co. After the p...

Ductile rupture of prestrained X100 pipeline steel sheets

Abstract. The mechanical and damage behavior of a X100 steel after prestrain is studied in this work. Experimental results show both a plastic and rupture anisotropy: the T direction exhibits a higher ultimate stress but the lowest ductility and toughness. Prestrain reduces ductility and crack growth resistance. A model able to represent the plastic and damage behaviour of the material before a...
