Embodiment
Below the present invention is carried out comparatively detailed explanation.
Unless otherwise, content all refers to weight percent content among the present invention.
SUS304 belongs to metastable austenitic stainless steel; In the cold deformation process, this metastable austenite can change strain-induced martensite into, because the generation of strain-induced martensite makes material have very high intensity and hardness; Thereby cause the difficulty of material redeformation; Influence the deep draw performance of material, can cause material to ftracture when serious, perhaps distortion back timeliness cracking in deformation process.Md30 (℃) be one of the important indicator (formula 1) that characterizes this martensitic transformation degree, Md30 (℃) the strain-induced martensite amount that forms during low more material cold deformation is few more, the punching performance of material is good more, timeliness rimose tendency is low more after the material punching press.
Md30(℃)=551-462(C%+N%)-9.2Si%-8.1Mn%-13.7Cr%
-18.5Mo%-29(Ni%+Cu%)-68Nb%-1.42(γ-8.0)(1)
γ in the formula: material grains degree
The inventor finds the austenitic stainless steel punching course, and essence is the flow process of metal between mould, and this process is accompanied by the distortion of materials sclerosis, thereby influences forming property.Strain hardening is that the passage that the accumulation of dislocation has hindered other dislocation causes; The burying in oblivion of dislocation, arrange again and cross slip will reduce the hardenability of distortion; The stacking fault energy of metal is than higher simultaneously; Metal flow is easier or distortion is easier, thereby increases the shaping of the element advantageous material that improves the metal stacking fault energy.
C: carbon is strong stable austenite and expansion austenitic area element in stainless steel, also is the material reinforcement element.But because atoms such as the relative metal Fe of C atomic radius, Cr, Ni, Cu are much smaller, in metallic substance, belong to interstitial atom, be unfavorable for the corrosion resistance nature and the punching performance of material.Therefore, carbon content of the present invention be defined as≤0.03%.Preferably, C≤0.02%, more preferably 0.007-0.02%.
Si: silicon is a kind of deoxidant element commonly used in the stainless steel smelting process, must guarantee to have in the molten steel Si of certain content, and deoxidation of molten steel could be fully; Silicon reduces the stacking fault energy of material on the other hand, is unfavorable for distortion of materials.Thereby the scope of silicone content confirmed as≤0.75%.Preferably, silicone content is 0.20-0.70%, more preferably 0.40-0.70.
Mn: manganese is one of austenite former; Effect with stable austenite tissue; Simultaneously manganese still be a kind of cheapness, reduce Md30 (℃) element (formula 1), but consider that it has certain negative interaction to material corrosion resistance, the manganese content in the steel is confirmed as: 2.0-3.5%.Preferably, manganese content is 2.5-3.5%, more preferably 2.7-3.45%.
Cr: chromium is the most basic stainless element, is the fundamental element that stainless steel obtains erosion resistance.Simultaneously Cr also is the ferrite former in the stainless steel, because the present invention requires lower C, N (strong austenite former) content, for the balance of the phase that keeps material, chromium content of the present invention is 16-19%.Be preferably 16.1-18.8%, more preferably 16.5-18.6%.
Ni:Ni belongs to strong austenite formation, stable element, and higher stacking fault energy is arranged, and is the main alloy that improves the material forming performance, but because its its heavy addition of expensive price limit, nickel content of the present invention is 8.0-9.0%.Be preferably 8.05-9.0%, more preferably 8.06-8.7%.
Cu:Cu belongs to austenite formation, stable element, and higher stacking fault energy is arranged, and is the main alloy that improves the material forming performance, but the hot workability of too high Cu content influence material, nickel content of the present invention is 2.0-3.0%.Be preferably 2.05-2.95%, more preferably 2.08-2.92% most preferably is 2.3-2.92%.
N: nitrogen is the intensive austenite former, because N belongs to the forming property that interstitial element is unfavorable for material, the nitrogen content of steel of the present invention is≤0.03%.Be preferably≤0.02%, 0.005-0.015% more preferably.
C in Nb:Nb and the stainless steel, N have very strong bonding force; Reduced the deleterious effect of the C in the austenitic stainless steel, N interstitial atom, made material " IF " change, the Nb refinement crystal grain of austenitic stainless steel; The Md30 of reduction material (℃); The stacking fault energy of the Nb increase material of solid solution helps the interflow of material, but too high Nb improves intensity, the increase production cost of material, thereby Nb content 0.1-0.25% of the present invention.For guaranteeing to add the effect of Nb, the content of Nb, C, N must satisfy: Nb-8 (C+N)>=0 reaches (C+Nb)≤0.30%.Be preferably 0.15-0.25%.
Al:Al in stainless steel mainly with Al
2O
3The form of inclusion exists, because such is mingled with and belongs to and can not be mingled with the fragility of flow of metal, the forming property of material is had bigger harm, for limiting its damaging effect regulation Al of the present invention≤0.005%, is preferably 0.003-0.005%.
P: phosphorus is harmful element in stainless steel, should make in the steel phosphorus content low as far as possible, but the stainless steel smelting dephosphorization does not also have economy, effective means, and steel of the present invention confirms that the content of phosphorus is≤0.03%.
S: sulphur also is harmful element in stainless steel, in steel, generates MnS etc. easily and is mingled with, and sulphur worsens the hot workability of steel simultaneously, and the corrosion resistance nature of material is also had negative effect.Thereby the present invention is≤0.02% with sulphur content in the steel, be preferably≤0.005%.
The present invention is through reducing the stainless interstitial atom C of SUS304, N content; Improve the distortion of materials flowing property; Increase the forming property that Cu content improves material; Improve the Md30 that Mn, Cu element reduce material (℃), the Md30 that add harm that Nb alleviates C, N interstitial atom, reduces material (℃), the crystal grain of refinement material gains in strength and avoids the material stamping cracking, makes forming property of the present invention be improved.
Grain fineness number after the material heat treatment, not only influence Md30 (℃) (formula 1), and can improve the intensity of material to a certain extent, reduce the risk of stamping cracking.
When austenitic stainless steel is used as stamping material; It in most cases all is the material that adopts thin specification; Thereby the punch process material not only has the higher requirement of ratio to the forming property of material; Level to the inclusion that influences the material punch process also has higher requirement simultaneously, thereby the present invention has stipulated the production technique of this material simultaneously.
ME with good punching performance austenitic stainless steel of the present invention: in smelting process; Basicity of slag is controlled at 1.5-2.5; Under vacuum or non-vacuum condition; Adopt aluminium content to be lower than 1.0% ferrosilicon or silicomanganese deoxidation, under the non-oxidation protective condition, pour into steel ingot or steel billet through abundant sedative molten steel, the hot rolling heating and temperature control that the present invention is fit to is at 1200-1240 ℃; The present invention compares cold rolling hardenability with SUS304 little, and pass deformation rate can be near 35%, thereby under same deformation rate condition, can reduce the cold rolling passage; 1010-1070 ℃ of this material heat treatment process in cold rolling back is fast cold, to guarantee to obtain 6.0 grades of more tiny metallographic structures of ratio.This material can be produced the equipment production of SUS304 at metallurgical works.
