A new kind of Mn-Mo-Nb-Cu-B bainite steel which satisfied mechanical demands of E690 offshore plate steel was designed. The effect of two processes——thermomechanical control process (TMCP)+tempering (T) and thermomechanical control process (TMCP)+reheating and quenching (RQ)+tempering (T)——on microstructure and mechanical properties were studied by means of scan electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and electron back scatter diffraction (EBSD). The results showed that optimal mechanical properties were available when tempering at 550 ℃ for both processes. The microstructure of the TMCP+T treated sample tempering in the range of 450 to 550 ℃ for 1 h did not change dramatically yet the lath in the TMCP+RQ+T treated sample merged together and transformed into polygonal ferrite. At the same time, the sub-structure of grain bainite transformed from lath to cell-shape to refine grains with tempering temperature mounting. Lots of sub-grain boundaries were located within bainite and adjacent bainite grain boundaries were high angle.

The alloy was reheated to 580 ℃ for tempering at rates of 2, 5, 10, 20, and 40 ℃/s, respectively, after quenching. The amount, distribution, and stability of reversed austenite were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron back scatter diffraction (EBSD). The microstructure and cryogenic impact energy were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and Charpy V-notch (CVN) tests. The results showed that when the sample was heated at 10 ℃/s, the volume fraction of reversed austenite exhibited maximum of 8%; the reversed austenite was uniform along all kinds of boundaries; the reversed austenite contained higher concentration of carbon which enabled it to be more stable. The cryogenic toughness of the alloy was greatly improved when heated at 10 ℃/s, as the fracture surface observation showed that it mainly fractured in ductile rupture mode, which was consistent with the results of cryogenic impact energy.

The high temperature deformation behavior of the 9Ni steel has been studied by the Gleeble-3500 tester. The relationship between deformation resistance and deformation degree, deformation temperature and deformation rate was revealed. The results show that when the deformation degree is less than 02, the deformation resistance increases by about 70 to 200 MPa, while the deformation degree varied between 02 and 04, the deformation resistance increases by about 30-40 MPa, when the deformation degree is larger than 04, the deformation resistance increases slowly, some become stable gradually. The influence of deformation temperature on deformation resistance is larger, and deformation resistance at higher temperature is about 160 MPa smaller than at lower temperature. Higher deformation rate leads to larger deformation resistance. The deformation resistance increases about 70 to 110 MPa with the increase of the deformation rate. A new and highly accurate mathematical model of the steel was established to describe the deformation behavior during rolling.
