Description

As-cast high-strength ductile iron and its manufacturing process
Technical Field
The invention relates to an as-cast ductile iron and a production method thereof, in particular to an as-cast high-strength ductile iron and a manufacturing process thereof.
Background
The high-strength nodular cast iron has high tensile strength and high elongation and is widely applied to engineering machinery and automobile parts, and comprises safety parts such as axle housings, steering knuckles, planetary wheel housings, wheel hubs and the like. If the ductile iron can achieve excellent comprehensive mechanical properties such as high strength and high toughness in an as-cast state, the production cost is greatly reduced and the production period is shortened. Many parts, which were originally made of cast steel materials or joined by forge welding, are now increasingly being replaced by ductile iron parts of high strength and toughness. The ductile iron casting is used for replacing a steel part, so that the dead weight can be reduced by 8-12%, and great benefits are brought to the light weight of machinery and the energy conservation. Meanwhile, compared with steel, the cast iron has many advantages, good wear resistance, shock absorption, heat conductivity and lower notch sensitivity, and meanwhile, the raw materials of the cast iron are wide in source and easy to obtain, so that the application status and the prospect of the high-strength and high-toughness nodular cast iron are established.
The inoculant used in the production of the nodular cast iron can play a role in increasing graphite cores, improving nucleation capability, increasing the number of graphite spheres, optimizing tissues and improving comprehensive performance. The inoculants usually used for cast iron are SiFe alloys containing a small amount of Al, Ca, Zr, Ba and other elements, however, under the environmental factors of heavy-wall nodular iron castings or severe cooling conditions, the surfaces of the castings, such as flange parts, are often subjected to shrinkage porosity, and the production requirements cannot be met. Generally, the casting can meet the technical requirements of the material after heat treatment, the production cost is increased due to the standard coal and electricity used for heat treatment, and the environment is seriously polluted by sulfur dioxide and dust generated by the coal.
Therefore, the technical personnel in the field aim to provide a manufacturing process and a formula of as-cast high-strength ductile iron, and the multi-element trace alloy treatment process is adopted, so that the heat treatment process can be avoided, and the as-cast casting has compact structure and meets the requirements of strength and hardness.

In the invention, the sulfur-oxygen cerium inoculant is used as a second inoculant, and after the iron liquid is added, Ce and Ca react with the inoculant and residual S and O in the iron liquid to generate sulfide, oxide and sulfur-oxygen compound compounds. These compounds are more effective cores because of their good compatibility with graphite and their poor separation from the iron bath (small size, time lag of formation), including the SiO formed at this time2And SiO2Composite silicates formed from FeO, MnO are also effective substrates for graphite nucleation. In addition, Ce can also be combined with other harmful trace elements such as Ti, Pb, Bi and the like or form intermetallic compounds to inhibit the harmful effect. These factors are more significant for thick-walled ductile irons. The influence of the sulfur-cerium oxide inoculant on the mechanical performance is the comprehensive result of tissue improvement and the inhibition of the action of harmful elements.
