Description

High-sulfur low-aluminum free-cutting steel continuous casting slab and production method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medium-thickness steel plate blank manufacturing, and particularly relates to a high-sulfur low-aluminum free-cutting steel continuous casting plate blank and a production method thereof.
Background
The free-cutting steel is produced in China from the 50 th of the 20 th century, the annual yield is low at that time, and the yield is increased at present, but the demand of the free-cutting steel is rapidly increased along with the development of the machining industry towards the automation direction. At present, the production level, yield, quality and variety of free-cutting steel in China are greatly different from those of the advanced steel producing countries in the world, especially the cutting speed is difficult to improve, the surface roughness of parts cannot meet the requirement, the service life of cutters is low, and the like.
At present, most domestic steel mills adopt a die casting (electric furnace and ingot casting) method to produce free-cutting steel ingots (billets) or a spray forming method to produce free-cutting die steel, the die casting process has high energy consumption, low metal yield and great environmental pollution, is not suitable for the current social development direction of energy conservation, emission reduction and environmental protection, and the segregation of sulfur is a main reason for causing the non-uniform cutting performance of the free-cutting die steel, but can not occur when the free-cutting die steel is produced by adopting a continuous casting process. The continuous casting has a high solidification rate, so that the sulfide particles are smaller than the die cast sulfide particles.
However, if the high-sulfur low-aluminum steel is produced by adopting a continuous casting method, a series of influences can be generated on the smelting and continuous casting processes of molten steel, which are mainly shown in the following steps: 1) white slag and desulfurization are not produced in the LF refining process; 2) because alumina inclusions have great influence on the cutting performance of the high-sulfur low-aluminum steel, aluminum is used for weak deoxidation after alloying and sulfur supplement, and meanwhile, calcium treatment is also used for carrying out denaturation treatment on the inclusions; 3) the high oxygen content and the high sulfur content of the free-cutting steel greatly reduce the surface tension of molten steel, so that the steel slag is difficult to separate, the steel slag is difficult to be mixed and coiled, a large amount of surface slag inclusion or subcutaneous defects are formed, and steel leakage is caused in serious conditions, so that the continuous casting production is difficult to carry out; 4) after oxygen in molten steel enters the casting powder, the viscosity and the melting temperature of the casting powder are increased, and the melting speed is slowed down, so that liquid slag flows in unevenly, and the heat transfer of a primary solidified shell is uneven; 4) the high-sulfur low-aluminum steel has extremely strong crack sensitivity, and is easy to generate surface longitudinal cracks, so that casting blanks are scrapped or the surface quality of the rolled steel plate is poor and the steel plate is judged to be a waste defective product.
Therefore, no report of producing high-sulfur low-aluminum free-cutting steel by slab continuous casting exists at home and abroad, the high-sulfur low-aluminum free-cutting steel plate is rolled after die casting, and the large demand of the machining industry on the free-cutting steel plate cannot be met.

Comparative example 1
The other same example 1 only changes the VD process compared with the example 1, namely the refining slag is modified without adding a top slag modifier after the VD is broken, the slag surface is not deoxidized, and the flow of argon is not controlled. The method has the advantages that the fluctuation of the S content of the molten steel is large, the precise control cannot be realized, in the continuous casting process, the thickness of the liquid slag layer of the continuous casting mold flux begins to be thinned after 40 minutes of casting along with the lapse of the casting time, and is finally thinned to 4mm, as shown in figure 3, the molten slag is denatured mainly because the oxygen on the slag surface in a ladle permeates into the molten steel in the final stage of casting, the melting point and the viscosity of the mold flux are improved, so that the melting speed is slowed down, generally, the thickness of the liquid slag layer of the continuous casting mold flux is ensured to be 8-12mm, otherwise, the phenomenon of steel leakage is easily caused because the lubrication of the mold flux is insufficient, and therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of the steel leakage accident, the continuous casting is stopped when the casting time reaches 50 minutes, and the subsequent molten steel is completely returned to the furnace.
Comparative example 2
The other embodiment 2 is the same as the embodiment 2 except that the converter pre-deoxidation and the non-yellow-brown slag production are changed compared with the embodiment 2, namely, no aluminum block is added during the converter tapping, the pre-deoxidation operation is not carried out, lime, refining slag and submerged arc slag are added after LF enters a station, no aluminum particles and a purifying agent are added, after electrified slagging is finished, ferrous sulfide is added, the S content is 0.055%, the oxygen content of molten steel detected before the molten steel is taken out of the station is 14.6ppm, the Als content is 0.005%, the color of a slag sample taken during the station leaving is black, and the T.Fe content in the slag is 3.56%.
