Background
The yield strength of ordinary structural steel for construction at 600 c will drop below 1/2 of the room temperature yield strength, thereby losing the load-bearing capacity. Existing building standards specify that steel structures be protected with fire-resistant thermal insulation coatings. However, the work of spraying the fireproof heat-insulating coating is harmful to the health of workers, the construction period is prolonged, and the construction cost of the steel structure is increased. In addition, the spatter from the operation of spraying the refractory heat-insulating coating also causes environmental pollution.
The temperature in winter in northern China can reach-20 ℃ at the lowest, and can reach-40 ℃ in partial areas, the impact toughness of a steel structure for construction can be rapidly reduced in severe cold weather, and particularly, the steel structure is easy to break suddenly under the action of certain impact load under the extremely cold weather condition, so that major safety accidents are caused. In order to adapt to northern cold weather conditions and enhance the safety of high-rise buildings, a low-temperature high-toughness refractory steel which has higher strength at high temperature and good impact toughness at low temperature is urgently needed.

Detailed Description
Ordinary structural steel for construction has good strength at room temperature, but as the temperature increases, the yield strength of the steel material decreases to below 1/2 of the room temperature yield strength, thereby losing the load-bearing capacity. The fire resistance of steel is judged internationally by the japanese standards: if the yield strength of the steel at 600 ℃ is greater than 2/3, which is the room temperature yield strength, the steel has fire resistance properties. The refractory steel of the invention has better refractory performance by adding Mo, Cr, Cu, Ni and other alloy elements into the steel.
The impact energy of the common structural steel for the building is required to be more than or equal to 27J, the ductile-brittle transition temperature is-20 ℃, and the material is easy to generate brittle fracture under the action of impact load in the environment with the temperature lower than-20 ℃. According to the low-temperature high-toughness refractory steel, the Nb microalloying element is added into the steel, and the cooling speed is controlled in the processing process, so that the grain structure is refined, and the impact energy of a final product object at-40 ℃ is more than or equal to 200J, so that the low-temperature high-toughness refractory steel has good low-temperature toughness.
In order to obtain good fire resistance and low-temperature toughness, the low-temperature high-toughness refractory steel must have good purity and low C content of molten steel, and special alloy addition is designed.
The invention relates to low-temperature high-toughness refractory steel, which comprises the following chemical components in percentage by weight: 0.01 to 0.12%, Mn: 0.30-1.60%, Si: 0.10-0.50%, Al: 0.010-0.050%, Cu: 0.02-0.05%, Cr: 0.10-0.90%, Mo: 0.10-0.80%, Ti: 0.005-0.060%, Nb: 0.005-0.080%, Ni: 0.05-0.30 percent of the total weight of the alloy, less than or equal to 0.0040 percent of B, less than or equal to 0.025 percent of P, less than or equal to 0.0020 percent of S, and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities.
According to the low-temperature high-toughness refractory steel, a plurality of microalloy elements are added, so that the low-temperature high-toughness refractory steel has good refractory performance and low-temperature toughness in a certain proportion. The yield strength of the refractory steel at 600 ℃ is greater than 2/3 of the yield strength required by the room temperature standard, the impact energy at-40 ℃ is more than or equal to 120J, and the refractory steel has excellent forming performance, cold bending performance, welding performance and the like.
The fire-resistant mechanism of steel: the Mo element added into the refractory steel can remarkably increase the stability of the undercooled austenite in a pearlite transformation region, thereby being beneficial to the formation of bainite or MA structures. Therefore, at a lower cooling speed, the refractory steel has a mixed structure of ferrite, bainite and MA, and the phase boundary of the mixed structure can effectively block dislocation movement, so that the high-temperature strength of the steel is improved.
Molybdenum and niobium are both strong carbide forming elements. Mo favors the formation of more fine stable carbides (Mo)2C) The carbide is Fe3C is more stable and is difficult to decompose and grow up at high temperature. Niobium forms a fine second phase of NbC in the steel and has a high structural stability. The fine dispersed Nb (C, N) can hinder the migration of crystal boundary, improve the growth temperature of crystal grains, achieve the fine crystal effect, and the refined crystal grains can effectively prevent the expansion of cracks, thereby improving the low-temperature toughness of the refractory steel.
After the steel is added with trace elements such as copper, chromium, nickel and the like, a compact protective film with strong adhesiveness is formed on the surface of the steel, so that the corrosion is prevented from diffusing and developing inwards, and a matrix below the rust layer is protected to slow down the corrosion speed. An amorphous spinel type oxide compact layer with the thickness of about 50-100 mu m is formed between the rust layer and the matrix, and the compact oxide film prevents oxygen and water in the air of the external environment from permeating into the steel matrix, slows down the deep development of rust to steel materials and improves the corrosion resistance of the steel materials.
