Microstructure of high strength X80 pipeline steels which contain different Nb contents was investigated using optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.Second phase particles were analyzed by extraction replica method.Results show that microstructure of low Nb content steel comprises granular bainite and Lath-like bainite,and a few of martensite-austenite(M-A) islands.However,microstructure is consisted of fine acicular ferrite and M-A islands in high Nb content steel.Precipitates in low Nb pipeline steel are large scale cubic TiN particles,however,precipitates of high Nb pipelines steel are mainly the large size duplex type(Nb,Ti)C and fine NbC precipitates.
