Effect of Stress Relaxation and Annealing Treatment on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Steel Wire
Bridge cables composed of 1960 MPa steel wires can be damaged during vehicle fires. Therefore, it is necessary to study the high-temperature mechanical properties of steel wires under load-bearing conditions. In this paper, the mechanical properties and microstructure of 1960 MPa steel wire after stress relaxation and high-temperature annealing treatment at different temperatures are investigated. The results show that the stress relaxation limit is 422 MPa at 325 °C. The tensile strength of the steel wire after stress relaxation is 1975 MPa, which decreases by 5.73% compared with the initial state. When the annealing temperature is 300 °C, the tensile strength of the steel wire is 2044 MPa, accounting for 98.7% of the strength of the steel wire at room temperature. The tensile strength decreases by 9% when the annealing temperature is 400 °C, the steel wire strength decreases at a significantly higher rate. In addition, the spacing of the pearlitic sheet layers increases from 55 nm to 75 nm at the heat treatment temperature of 300 °C~350 °C. A passive fire protection temperature of 275 °C is recommended for cable wires if safer protection standards are considered.
