Technical field
The present invention relates to the thermal treatment process of metallic substance, definitely say, relate to and utilize bell type annealing furnace to handle titanium coiled sheet, especially cold rolling industrial pure titanium coiled sheet.
Background technology
Pure titanium has some characteristics different with steel, and for example crystal has the ppolymorphism body structure, is close-packed hexagonal structure below 882 ℃, and slip system is few, and anisotropy is obvious, and chemical property is active, and cold working working hardening effect is remarkable.Web-like or tabular titanium material (hereinafter referred to as the titanium coiled sheet) need anneal after cold rolling.The industrially pure titanium of cold deformation is according to the different recrystallization temperatures that have between 450-550 ℃ of impurity component and cold deformation rate, and annealing temperature should be higher than recrystallization temperature.The chemical property of titanium is active, high temperature down easily generates zone of oxidation with element reaction such as airborne O, H, N, make the physicochemical property variation, except that hardness and fragility increase and plasticity and elasticity reduction, the adsorptivity of the industrially pure titanium under the high temperature is also stronger, carbide and dust in surface residues after cold rolling and the annealing intensification atmosphere may be adsorbed to the surface, form the annealing blackspot, influence titanium coiled sheet surface quality thus.
Existing titanium coiled sheet annealing treating process comprises vacuum annealing or inert-free gas protection annealing.The flat 9-217157 of JP discloses a kind of vacuum annealing process: at first annealing furnace is vacuumized, be heated to then more than 400 ℃ to annealing temperature, then be heated to 600-700 ℃ and insulation under the situation of high-purity nitrogen charging into.Under the relative vacuum state, still there is harmful atmosphere in the stove, nitrogen also has a negative impact to the titanium coiled sheet surface quality after the annealing.Vacuum annealing process is to the requirement height of equipment, and security is lower, is unsuitable for the annealing that big volume weighs the titanium coiled sheet.Inert-free gas protection annealing is carried out in open environment, and there is zone of oxidation on the titanium coiled sheet surface after the annealing, and is of poor quality, needs to clear up zone of oxidation after the annealing, both increased materials consumption and workload, reduces production efficiency again.When annealing with the titanium roll form, adsorptivity is stronger when the condition of high temperature, and chemical property is more active, forms interlaminar bonding easily in the effect of thermal stress, titanium volume surface damage when causing uncoiling, and serious causing can not uncoiling.Therefore, people's expectation is improved above-mentioned existing titanium plate coil annealing process.
