The typical heat-affected zone developed in an X-70 steel, usually used in pipeline manufacture, has been simulated via thermal treatment. A non-equilibrium microstructure consisting of bainite, with ferrite and some martensite, has been produced and mechanically characterised, resulting in much greater hardness and strength and a lower ductility and toughness than the corresponding base metal. This also has a lower ductility. Different single-edge notched bending specimens with different crack lengths (a/W between 0.1 and 0.5) were experimentally tested to assess the fracture behaviour of this product under different degrees of constraint. The J-a resistance curves at room temperature were determined, and the obtained results were explained by the effect of constraint on ductile crack growth.
