Description

High-strength high-toughness bainite non-quenched and tempered steel for high-power engine crankshaft and preparation method thereof

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the field of non-quenched and tempered steel, and relates to high-strength and high-toughness bainite non-quenched and tempered steel for a high-power engine crankshaft and a preparation method thereof.

Background

The non-quenched and tempered steel is an environment-friendly steel which meets the requirements of high performance and low cost, and the application of the non-quenched and tempered steel to automobile parts is more and more extensive along with the increase of the pressure of environmental protection, energy conservation, cost reduction and the like of automobiles and related supporting industries. The crankshaft is one of core parts of an automobile engine, is a typical die forging in the automobile industry, and the first generation of non-quenched and tempered steel 49MnVS3 for the crankshaft is developed as early as 70 years in the 20 th century by German and Saidisen.

The quality of the crankshaft performance determines the reliability and the service life of the engine to a great extent. The service condition of the engine crankshaft is severe, and the engine crankshaft has both torsional stress and bending stress and is simultaneously acted by torsion and impact bending force, so that the service condition of the crankshaft determines that the crankshaft material has high tensile strength and fatigue strength and also needs to have good toughness. The currently used non-quenched and tempered steel for the crankshaft is ferrite and pearlite type non-quenched and tempered steel, such as F38MnVS, and the mechanical property control range R of the steel_p0.2≥550MPa，R_mNot less than 850 MPa; elongation A after fracture is more than or equal to 12 percent, reduction of area is more than or equal to 25 percent, and KU is impacted at normal temperature₂≥25J。

Along with the improvement of the power of an automobile engine, the requirement on steel for the engine crankshaft is higher and higher, and the high-strength and high-wear-resistance performance of the crankshaft during high-speed operation is further improved, and the good toughness is also ensured. The performance of the traditional pearlite and ferrite type non-quenched and tempered steel gradually cannot meet the performance requirements of the steel for the engine crankshaft. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a bainite non-quenched and tempered steel with high toughness and high fatigue performance to meet the material requirement of high-power engine crankshafts.

Furthermore, in the rolling step, in order to promote the dissolution of sulfides, reduce the component segregation and the like, the heating temperature and the heating time of the billet are properly increased, the soaking temperature of the billet in a heating furnace is controlled to be 1210-1250 ℃, and the total time of preheating, heating and soaking is controlled to be 6.0h-12.0 h; the initial rolling temperature is 1090-1130 ℃, and the final rolling temperature is 900-.

Furthermore, the soaking temperature of the heating furnace is preferably 1235-1250 ℃, and the total time of preheating, heating and soaking is preferably 7.0-8.0 h; the initial rolling temperature is preferably 1100-1125 ℃, and the final rolling temperature is preferably 920-.

In the components of the high-strength high-toughness bainite non-quenched and tempered steel for the high-power engine crankshaft, the functions and the control of all elements are as follows:

c: c is the most effective strengthening element in steel, is the most effective element for influencing strength, hardness and hardenability, in order to ensure sufficient strength, hardness and hardenability of the material, because the surface of the crankshaft needs to be subjected to induction quenching strengthening, in order to ensure the surface hardness after induction quenching, the C content cannot be lower than 0.30 percent, but the C content is too high, which can cause the toughness and plasticity of the steel to be too low, therefore, the C content cannot be higher than 0.40 percent, so the C content is determined to be 0.30-0.40 percent, and is preferably 0.32-0.38 percent.

Si: si is a deoxidizer, has a strong solid solution strengthening effect, improves the hardness and the strength of steel, can inhibit the precipitation of brittle carbides during bainite transformation in the steel during a cooling process, enables certain residual austenite to be reserved in the steel, is beneficial to improving the toughness of the steel, and can improve the elastic modulus of the steel and improve the rigidity of a crankshaft, so that the content of Si cannot be lower than 0.60 percent, but excessive silicon increases the activity of C, promotes the decarburization and graphitization tendency of the steel during rolling and heat treatment, deteriorates the toughness of the steel, and cannot be higher than 1.50 percent. The Si content is controlled between 0.60% and 1.50%, preferably between 0.63% and 1.25%.

Mn: mn is an effective element for deoxidation and desulfurization, the hardness and the strength of steel are improved, the stability of an austenite structure can be improved by Mn, the hardenability of the steel is obviously improved, and meanwhile, bainite transformation can be promoted, and the effect is difficult to achieve when the content is less than 1.40%. However, the Mn content is too high, the plasticity of the steel is reduced, the toughness of the steel is deteriorated during hot rolling, the content of residual austenite after phase transformation is too high, the bainite phase transformation temperature is too low, the yield strength and yield ratio of the steel are too low, the internal stress is too large, and the fatigue performance of the bainite non-quenched and tempered steel is deteriorated. Therefore, the Mn content is controlled to be 1.40-2.00%, preferably 1.60-1.90%.

Cr: cr can effectively improve the hardenability of steel and delay bainite transformation so as to obtain required high strength, and the hardness of bainite ferrite can be obviously improved through solid solution strengthening; meanwhile, Cr can also reduce the activity of C, can reduce the decarburization tendency of the surface of steel in the heating, rolling and forging processes, and is beneficial to obtaining high fatigue resistance. Too high Cr can reduce the toughness of steel, Cr is a strong carbide precipitation element, a large amount of carbide can be generated in the structure of an induction quenching layer, the performance of the induction quenching layer is influenced, and the content of Cr cannot be higher than 0.90%. The Cr content is controlled to be 0.60-0.90%, preferably 0.65-0.85%.

Mo: mo can obviously improve the hardenability of steel and promote bainite transformation. Mo can form strong carbide, block the diffusion of atoms, the movement of dislocation and the migration of grain boundaries, and effectively prevent the recrystallization of deformed austenite. Mo provides the strength of the steel mainly through precipitation strengthening and solid solution strengthening forms of carbides. The carbide particles of Mo are fine and can not cause stress concentration of a microstructure, and the impact toughness of the steel can be improved. But Mo has higher cost and is used as little as possible under the condition of meeting the performance requirement. Therefore, the Mo content is controlled to be 0.05 to 0.15%, preferably 0.08 to 0.12%.

V: v is a strengthening element in steel, both V and C, N have extremely strong affinity, the V exists in the steel in the form of carbide mainly due to precipitation strengthening of VC and V (CN), the V plays a main role in refining structure grains in the steel, the solid-dissolved V can obviously inhibit C diffusion in the bainite phase transformation process due to lower bainite phase transformation temperature, the bainite ferrite can be refined, the strength and toughness of the steel can be improved, and the grain boundary proportion of the refined material is increased due to refining of material grains, so that the strength of the steel is increased, and the sensitivity of the material to cracks is greatly reduced. However, when the V content is high, the cost is high. Therefore, the V content is controlled to be 0.05 to 0.20%, preferably 0.07 to 0.15%.

Ni: ni can effectively improve the core toughness of steel, reduce the ductile-brittle transition temperature and improve the low-temperature impact property, and has the effect of improving the fatigue strength of steel materials, and the Ni has higher cost, and the machinability after hot working can be reduced due to the excessively high Ni content. Therefore, the Ni content is controlled to 0.10 to 0.20%, preferably 0.10 to 0.18%.

Ti: ti and C, O, N have strong affinity, TiN and TiC phases separated out by combining with C, N effectively block the growth of austenite grain size within the hot rolling/forging temperature range and play a role in refining grains, and when V-Ti is added in a compounding way, the refining effect on the structure is better. Meanwhile, the solid-solution Ti can strongly inhibit the diffusion of C in the bainite phase transformation process, can play a role in refining bainite ferrite and M-A islands, and can effectively improve the toughness of the bainite non-quenched and tempered steel. Titanium can also increase the yield point of the material. If the Ti content is too high, TiN point-like inclusions are easy to liquify, the impact toughness and the fatigue life of the material are reduced, and forging cracks are easy to generate during forging. Therefore, the present invention controls the Ti content to 0.020 to 0.030%, preferably 0.022 to 0.029%.

B: b can improve the high-temperature plasticity and hardenability of the steel and promote the transformation of bainite. The effect is not significant when the B content is less than 0.0010%, and the effect is not significantly increased when the B content is more than 0.0035%, which is close to saturation. Therefore, the B content should be controlled to 0.0010 to 0.0035%, preferably 0.0020 to 0.0030%.

Al: al is an effective deoxidizer, and can form AlN refined grains, the effect is not obvious when the Al content is less than 0.010%, coarse inclusions are easily formed when the Al content is more than 0.060%, and the VN content is reduced, so that the performance of the steel is deteriorated. Therefore, the Al content should be controlled to 0.010-0.060%, preferably 0.020-0.030%.

[ N ]: can form compounds with V, B, Ti, Al and the like, refine grains, and N can promote the precipitation of V, reduce the consumption of V and reduce the cost. And too high [ N ] can form continuous casting defects such as bubbles and the like, and is easy to combine with Ti to form liquated TiN inclusions, so that the performance of the steel is reduced. Therefore, the N content should be controlled to 60 to 90ppm, preferably 65 to 85 ppm.

P and S: the sulfur is easy to form MnS inclusion with manganese in the steel, so that the steel generates hot brittleness, but the addition of a small amount of S can obviously improve the cutting performance of the non-quenched and tempered steel while not influencing the performance of products, and the MnS has the effect of refining grains; p is an element with strong segregation tendency, increases the cold brittleness of steel, reduces the plasticity and is harmful to the uniformity of the product structure and performance. Controlling P to be less than or equal to 0.010 percent, and S: 0.025-0.035%, S is preferably 0.027-0.035%.

T.O and [ H ]: forming oxide inclusions in the steel by the T.O, and controlling the T.O to be less than or equal to 10 ppm; [H] white spots are formed in steel, the product performance is seriously influenced, and the [ H ] is controlled to be less than or equal to 1.0 ppm.

X: the X reaction is the control of hardenability in the production process of the steel, C, Si, Mn, Cr, V, Ni and Mo elements have different influences on the properties of the steel such as hardness, plastic toughness and terminal hardenability, and in order to ensure that the steel meets the design requirements, through theoretical calculation and experimental determination, the bainite non-quenched and tempered steel needs to form a bainite structure under the control of a cooling process, so that the hardenability of the bainite non-quenched and tempered steel is ensured to reach a certain value, but the structure stress and the thermal stress generated by the overhigh hardenability during heating and cooling are larger, especially in the induction quenching stage. Therefore, X should be controlled to 200-260, preferably 205 ≦ X ≦ 245.

The invention adopts the specific components and the reasonable preparation method to produce the high strength and toughness bainite non-quenched and tempered steel for the high-power engine crankshaft and the crankshaft blank, the mechanical property inspection is carried out according to GB/T228.1 and GB/T229, and the yield strength R of the high strength and toughness bainite non-quenched and tempered steel is_p0.2Not less than 750MPa, tensile strength R_m: 1100-; elongation after fracture A is more than or equal to 12 percent, reduction of area Z is more than or equal to 40 percent, and normal temperature impact KU₂Not less than 35J. The rotary bending fatigue test is carried out according to GB/T4337, and the rotary bending fatigue limit sigma of the forged crankshaft material can be ensured_-1≥550MPa。
