Description

Industrial ultra-pure iron and production method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metal smelting, and particularly relates to industrial ultra-pure iron and a production method thereof.
Background
Pure iron is an important raw material for producing magnetic materials, electrothermal alloys, precision alloys and special metal materials, and along with the increasing requirements on precision alloys and magnetic components, the purity requirements of sophisticated high-tech products are also increasing.
The raw materials of pure iron and industrial pure iron are produced by GB9971 and GB6983 in China, and the pure iron and the industrial pure iron are generally refined and manufactured outside a converter or a converter plus a furnace, but the purity is not high, the impurity elements of the pure iron are high, the quality purity of a real object is low, and particularly, carbon, sulfur and phosphorus are high, so that the pure iron and the industrial pure iron can only be used for manufacturing common parts. These pure irons are already unsuitable for the manufacture of high-end products, for the production of raw materials for maraging steels, high-strength stainless steels, advanced functional materials (soft magnetic alloys, etc.), in particular for advanced technologies and high-quality components.
The secondary hardening steel is a high-purity steel grade of Cr-Ni-Co-Mo series containing carbon, and is used for manufacturing parts of aircraft landing gear, beam, shaft and the like, and the chemical composition (wt%) of pure iron used in the steel is equal to or less than 0.25% of C, equal to or less than 0.05% of Si, equal to or less than 0.05% of Mn, equal to or less than 0.001% of S, equal to or less than 0.003% of P, equal to or less than 0.005% of Al and equal to or less than 0.005% of Ti. The purity is still the problem to be solved for the second hardening steel and the maraging steel at present, impurities in the pure iron are important reasons influencing the purity of the steel, and the high impurity content greatly influences the toughness of the material. In particular, secondary hardening steel in which S and easily oxidizable elements Al, Si, Ti and Mn have a great influence on the fracture toughness and impact toughness of the material is difficult to remove in double vacuum smelting, which requires that such elements in pure iron be as low as possible.
At present, high purity industrial pure iron is manufactured by electrolysis in japan and usa, and the purity can reach 99.9, but the price is very high, and the cost for producing secondary hardening steel, maraging steel, and high purity stainless steel is high. The alloy is generally manufactured by adopting a converter or an electric furnace plus external refining at home, and is manufactured by an AOD or VOD furnace in some cases, but the purity is not high, and particularly, the contents of sulfur, phosphorus and aluminum are high. With the progress of the external refining technology and the large-scale and intelligent control of the external refining equipment, the converter/electric furnace + external refining means are adopted to produce the pure iron, the pure iron can be classified and graded according to specific use requirements, and meanwhile, the refining and purifying process is further optimized.
At present, a lot of patents or articles exist in the aspects of purifying iron by converter/electric furnace + external refining, but the preparation method of the industrial ultra-pure iron which can be used for producing better low-alloy ultra-high-strength steel, secondary hardening ultra-high-strength steel, high-grade blade steel or low-medium-carbon high-purity stainless steel by adopting the long process of molten iron pretreatment, converter + external refining + continuous casting + electroslag remelting in a large batch mode belongs to the first example.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
The invention relates to a production method of industrial ultra-pure iron, which adopts the long-flow production of KR molten iron pre-desulfurization → converter smelting → LF deep desulfurization → slag skimming → RH deep deoxidation → square billet or round billet continuous casting → electroslag remelting and comprises the following steps:
1) KR molten iron pre-desulfurization: the molten iron with the S less than 0.02 percent is adopted as a raw material, the molten iron with the S less than 0.01 percent is allowed to be selected under the condition, KR is desulfurized in a mechanical stirring and slagging mode, good thermodynamic and kinetic conditions of desulfurization are achieved, and the S is stably controlled to be less than 0.002 percent at the end point; after the molten iron is desulfurized, removing desulfurized slag;
2) deep dephosphorization in converter smelting: kinetic and thermodynamic conditions favoring dep: high oxidizability and high alkalinity, large slag amount, low-temperature smelting, bottom blowing nitrogen and stirring; oxygen blowing is adopted to oxidize residual elements such as Si, Mn and the like in the molten iron as much as possible, and the P of the molten iron is stably controlled to be less than 0.0025% at the end point; slag stopping and tapping are adopted in the tapping process, and slag is basically not discharged, so that rephosphorization in the subsequent process is reduced; the tapping deoxidation adopts the addition of a carbon block for deoxidation, the addition amount of the carbon block is controlled to control the concentration of C in the molten iron to be not higher than 0.20 wt%, and deoxidants such as aluminum, silicon, manganese and the like are not used for deoxidation, so that the increase of the content of aluminum, silicon and manganese in the molten iron is avoided; in the early stage of the step, residual elements such as P, Si, Mn and the like are removed by oxygen blowing in the converter, and carbon is added for deoxidation in the later converter tapping process;
3) LF deep desulfurization: in the reduction stage, namely the shallow desulfurization stage, carbon powder is added to ensure that the content of C is 0.20-0.25 wt%, the stage can reduce oxygen in the slag, the oxidability of the slag is reduced, and the desulfurization and deoxidation are facilitated, and the carbon powder is adopted because the carbon powder has better reaction kinetics; in the deep desulfurization stage, the deoxidation of the slag and the molten steel is strengthened, carbon powder is continuously added to add the carbon content in the molten iron to be slightly higher than 0.25 wt% (0.25-0.26 wt%), and the steel slag (FeO + MnO) is ensured to be less than or equal to 1.0%; high-alkalinity operation is carried out, and the alkalinity is controlled within the range of 5.0-7.0; adding lime in small batches and in multiple batches at the later stage in the desulfurization process, controlling the stability of molten iron at the end point to be less than 0.001%, removing desulfurization slag and transferring to an RH process;
4) RH deep deoxidation: in the degassing step, the vacuum degree is not higher than 100Pa, the holding time is not lower than 25min, at the end of the vacuum deep deoxidation cycle, 0.2kg/T of mixed rare earth (the components are 30% of La, 48% of Ce, 18% of Nd and 3% of Pr) is added through a vacuum bunker to carry out deep desulfurization, deep deoxidation and impurity denaturation in molten iron, the content of T [ O ] in the molten iron is reduced through two modes of circulation and weak blowing, and the end point is when the content of T [ O ] is less than 15 ppm; controlling the content of the end point C according to the use requirement of specific pure iron: 0.01-0.25 wt%;
5) continuous casting: continuous casting is carried out by adopting a full-protection pouring mode, and a rectangular billet, a square billet and a round billet can be selected;
6) electroslag remelting: the electroslag remelting process can deeply desulfurize and remove large-particle rare earth inclusions, and selects slag system CaF2﹕Al2O3CaO 65:25:10, purifying and proportioning the dregs, and then requiring SiO in the dregs2Not more than 1%.
In the step 3) of the method, because the reaction is always in progress and is dynamically changed, carbon powder cannot be added in place at one time, the carbon powder needs to be continuously added subsequently, and part of the carbon powder can be added to the slag surface in the actual production operation process, so the carbon powder needs to be added to adjust the carbon content in the reduction stage and the deep desulfurization stage.
In the step 4), before the mixed rare earth is added, the circular deoxidation is adopted, and the argon blowing flow is 115-125 Nm3H, the time is 10-15 min; after the mixed rare earth is added, weak blowing is adopted for deoxygenation, and the flow rate of argon blowing is controlled to be 15-25 Nm3The time is controlled to be 12-18 min.
In the method, the converter, LF furnace smelting and RH furnace smelting are conventional smelting and secondary refining processes, so that Mn and Si in the molten iron can be effectively removed, and the molten iron meets the requirements of the component content standard of industrial ultra-pure iron, and the method is not repeated.
In step 5) of the method, the specifications of the continuous casting blank can be selected as follows: 280mm 380mm, 320mm 410mm, 160mm square, 200mm square, phi 240mm or phi 360mm, and the self-electricity consumption of the continuous casting billet is extremely good when the continuous casting billet can be directly used as electroslag remelting after being peeled.
In the step 6) of the method, the ingot can be 360mm or 550mm, and the corresponding slag amount is 34 +/-2 kg or 115 +/-5 kg.
In the step 6) of the method, no deoxidizing agent such as aluminum silicon and the like is added in the smelting process, and only carbon powder is added to deoxidize the slag system to ensure the stability of the slag system, so that the consistency of the component purity of the arc starting end and the feeding end of the electroslag ingot is ensured.
