Description

Process method for solving cracks of high-strength steel casting blank
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgical industrial production, and relates to high-strength steel with tensile strength of more than 950MPa and a casting blank production process thereof. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for controlling cracks in a cast slab.
Background
The high-strength steel for the mechanical stirring tank belongs to niobium-titanium microalloyed steel in the medium-carbon, high-manganese, high-aluminum and high-silicon content range, and the casting blank crack sensitivity is strong.
As shown in FIG. 1, there was a problem that transverse cracks occurred in the corner portions of the cast slab at the beginning of the production trial, and transverse breakage occurred in the cast slab when the cracks were severe. As shown in FIG. 2, metallographic examination revealed that the matrix structure of the ingot consisted mainly of ferrite and pearlite, and no significant abnormality was observed in the structure at the crack. Cracks are formed along ferrite grain boundaries, and are partly transgranular cracks, and iron oxide beads and a remarkable decarburization phenomenon are not observed at the cracks, so that it is concluded that the cracks are formed at a non-high temperature.
Due to the characteristics of the components of the casting blank steel, the high-strength steel casting blank generates surface microcracks before the continuous casting blank exits a fan-shaped section; in addition, in the process of cooling the casting blank to room temperature after the casting blank is taken out of the continuous casting machine, the heat conductivity coefficient of the casting blank is greatly changed within the temperature range of 50-1000 ℃, so that the transverse crack of the primary corner is expanded to cause brittle fracture along the crystal. The cracking problem of the casting blank before entering the heating furnace cannot be effectively solved by adjusting the continuous casting secondary cooling system, the process parameters of the electromagnetic stirring roller, the slow cooling of the casting blank in a slab warehouse in a stacking way or the slow cooling of a heat preservation pit and the like. Therefore, research on a casting blank production process and a casting blank crack control method of the high-strength steel is needed to solve the problem of cracking of a casting blank before the casting blank is fed into a heating furnace.
However, in patent documents of similar or similar steel grades, steel grade components, rolling processes and mechanical properties are mostly disclosed, and few technical solutions for solving the problem of billet cracking are clearly disclosed. For example, chinese patent document CN106636925B discloses a cold-rolled TRIP steel with high strength-elongation product and a preparation method thereof; the Chinese patent document CN107012398B discloses a niobium microalloyed TRIP steel and a preparation method thereof, which implies that a method for alleviating casting blank cracks by 'heating and then preserving heat after casting blank forging' and 'hot rolling after billet pre-heat preservation' is adopted. However, none of these prior arts completely solves the problem of cracking of the cast slab before it is introduced into the furnace.

The casting blank hot charging method comprises the following steps: directly feeding the casting blank into a heating furnace after the casting blank is cut to length, wherein the temperature of the casting blank reaches above 650 ℃; when the number of continuous casting furnaces reaches more than 4, in order to buffer the feeding rhythm of casting blanks, the subsequent casting blanks need to be fed into a heat preservation pit with a gas burner for heating for heat preservation; it must be ensured that the slab surface temperature is above 450 ℃ and is charged into the furnace to reduce the risk of slab cracking below this temperature.
And for the first 3 furnaces of the casting times, directly sending the casting blank into a heating furnace for hot charging and rolling after the casting blank is cut to length, wherein the surface temperature of the casting blank when the casting blank is fed into the furnace is more than 600 ℃. When the number of continuous casting furnaces reaches more than 4, stacking and waiting are needed in a slab warehouse to buffer the furnace feeding rhythm, but the surface temperature of the casting blank is guaranteed to be higher than 450 ℃ for hot charging and rolling.
Example 1, measured temperature profile:
after the casting blank is cut by the continuous casting machine → stacking is waited → the actual temperature measured in the middle of the upper surface, the corner part, the middle of the end surface and the middle of the narrow surface of the casting blank before the casting blank is fed into the heating furnace is shown in fig. 3 and 4. Fig. 3 and 4 show the results of two tests with different billet numbers. The results of both tests were essentially identical.
Example 2, thermal conductivity of cast slab:
the continuous casting slab produced by the process adopts an LFA 427 laser thermal conductivity instrument to measure the thermal conductivity coefficient of the high-strength steel casting blank, and the result shows that: when the casting blank is cooled from 1000 ℃ to 50 ℃, the fluctuation range of the thermal conductivity of the high-strength steel is 26.69-14.28W/(m.K) (the unit of the thermal conductivity is W/m.K). With the reduction of the temperature, the heat conductivity of the casting blank shows an alternating rule of reduction → rise → reduction → rise, and at the temperature of 735 ℃ and 398 ℃, the heat conductivity is respectively 14.29W/(m.K) and 17.18W/(m.K), the heat conductivity is obviously reduced, the stress release is weakened, and the temperature point is a temperature point at which cracks are generated. Therefore, the hot charging rolling can avoid the stress alternation and reduce the cracks.

Example 4 and example actually measured tensile strength and reduction of area of a casting blank:
the continuous casting slab produced by the process is sampled and processed into a sample with phi 120mm multiplied by 10mm, and the tensile strength and the reduction of area are measured on a Gleeble2000D thermal simulation experiment machine. As shown in fig. 5, the results show that: the plastic wave trough of the high-strength steel casting blank occurs between 650 ℃ and 900 ℃, and the corresponding section shrinkage rates are all lower than 30%; the reduction of area Z is only 12% at around 800 ℃. Therefore, the casting blank hot charging rolling is required to avoid the low plasticity temperature range.
The invention has been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, it is obvious that the invention is not limited to the specific implementation in the above-described manner, and it is within the scope of the invention to apply the inventive concept and solution to other applications without substantial modification.
