The invention belongs to the technical field of alloy vacuum induction melting, and particularly relates to a vacuum induction melting method for controlling titanium element.
Background
Titanium is a deoxidizer in steel, makes the internal structure of steel compact, at the same time can refine crystal grains, reduce the ageing sensitivity and cold brittleness of steel, improve welding performance, and can avoid intergranular corrosion by adding proper titanium into stainless steel.
In low alloy steels, titanium is added as a microalloying element or in some stainless steels and superalloys, titanium is added as a major element. However, titanium is a chemically very active metal and is easily formed into compounds with elements such as oxygen, sulfur, carbon, and nitrogen in steel. Some high alloy grades of steel are smelted by vacuum induction smelting furnaces, but in vacuum induction smelting furnaces there is not absolute vacuum, and there is a problem with the yield control of the easily burnt elements, especially the titanium element which is very active in chemical properties. How to accurately control the content of titanium element to approximate the chemical compositions of different batches of steel ingots produced by a vacuum induction melting furnace has become an important subject.
Based on the above situation, it is necessary to develop the research work of the yield of the titanium element smelted by the vacuum induction smelting furnace and to improve the basic approach of the titanium element of the steel ingots of different batches produced by the vacuum induction smelting furnace.

Wherein, in the vacuum induction melting method for controlling the titanium element, the vacuum degree is less than 10 Pa.
In the vacuum induction melting method for controlling titanium element, the active metal is at least one of metal silicon, metal manganese, metal aluminum, metal titanium, metal magnesium and rare earth.
Preferably, in the vacuum induction melting method for controlling titanium element, the metal titanium is sponge titanium or pure titanium.

In the vacuum induction melting method for controlling the titanium element, argon is filled into the furnace to reach 0.4-0.6 atmospheric pressure.
In the vacuum induction melting method for controlling the titanium element, the temperature is controlled to be 1420-1560 ℃.
The vacuum induction melting method for controlling the titanium element is used for smelting steel S32160 or ERNiCrMo-3.
Has the advantages that: the invention provides a vacuum induction melting method for controlling titanium element, which strictly controls the adding sequence of raw materials: the method comprises the steps of firstly adding other raw materials except graphite and active metal, then adding the graphite and the active metal except metal titanium, finally adding metal titanium, and then combining protective argon and controlling the temperature of molten steel, thereby realizing the accurate control of the titanium element of the high-titanium-containing material, minimizing the component difference of steel ingots of different batches produced by a vacuum induction smelting furnace, and controlling the error of the titanium element within +/-0.05 wt%.
Detailed Description
The invention provides a vacuum induction melting method for controlling titanium element, which comprises the following steps:
A. calculating the weight of metal titanium to be added according to the content of titanium element in steel, putting the weighed metal titanium into a hopper, and then putting the ingot mould into a vacuum induction melting furnace;
B. putting clean and dry raw materials except graphite and active metal into a crucible of a vacuum induction melting furnace, and putting the graphite and the active metal into a hopper; the crucible of the vacuum induction smelting furnace is smelted by pure iron at least once before being used, so that the material can be really sintered, and the crucible does not have water vapor; the active metal is at least one of metal silicon, metal manganese, metal aluminum, metal titanium, metal magnesium and rare earth;
C. closing the furnace cover, vacuumizing until the pressure in the furnace is less than 10Pa, and then heating by power transmission until the raw materials except graphite and active metal are completely melted down; when no solid exists in the crucible, the raw materials are completely melted down;
D. after melting down, closing the vacuum pump, stopping vacuumizing, and filling argon with the purity not less than 99.9% into the vacuum induction melting furnace to ensure that the pressure in the furnace is 0.4-0.6 atmospheric pressure;
E. under the protection of argon, adding graphite and active metal except metallic titanium in a hopper, adjusting the temperature of molten steel to 1420-1560 ℃ to form a film, adding metallic titanium after the film completely covers the surface of the molten steel, and stirring;
F. and pouring molten steel into the steel ingot mold by adopting a direct pouring mode.
Because the activity of the active metal is higher, other raw materials except graphite and the active metal need to be melted down, and the active metal is added under the protective atmosphere, so that the active metal is prevented from reacting with oxygen, and the alloy components are reduced; meanwhile, carbon dioxide and nitrogen also influence molten steel in the smelting process, and argon is used as the cheapest inert gas, has better economical efficiency, does not react with the molten steel, is an ideal protective gas for vacuum smelting, and is introduced as the protective gas.
In the step E, if the temperature is too high, part of the added titanium metal will volatilize, and the content of the finally added titanium element cannot be ensured, and if the temperature is too low, the molten steel in the crucible starts to solidify and cannot be cast into ingots at a later stage; only when the film is formed on the surface of the molten steel, the surface of the film can not only protect the minimum amount of added metallic titanium from volatilization or volatilization so as to ensure the content of the finally added titanium element, but also ensure that the molten steel is completely liquid and can not be poured, so the temperature of the molten steel is required to be adjusted to 1420-1560 ℃ to form the film, and the metallic titanium is added and stirred after the film completely covers the surface of the molten steel.
The vacuum induction melting method for controlling the titanium element is used for smelting steel S32160 or ERNiCrMo-3.
