Description

Preparation method of low-inclusion aluminum killed steel
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of steel smelting, and particularly relates to a preparation method of low-inclusion aluminum killed steel.
Background
Al killed steel is adopted in the steel making process as the name implies, and more than 95% of low alloy steel in the current industrial production is the Al killed steel. A large amount of Al can be generated due to aluminum deoxidation in the production process of aluminum killed steel2O3Inclusion of Al2O3The inclusions are easy to aggregate into clusters and grow, and the mechanical property, the corrosion property and the fatigue property of the steel can be seriously damaged if the inclusions are not removed. Therefore, the modification treatment technology of the inclusions is commonly adopted for Al in industrial production2O3Inclusion modification treatment for reducing large-size Al2O3The size and type of inclusions, thereby improving the overall properties of the steel.
Taking production and smelting of domestic and foreign pipeline steel as an example, the high-cleanness pipeline steel is generally smelted by adopting a process flow of molten iron pretreatment → converter smelting → external refining → slab continuous casting. The specific production method of the steel comprises the following steps: smelting → LF → RH (VD) refining → continuous casting → heating → rolling → water cooling after rolling → finished product. In the aspect of controlling the quality of the steelmaking process, LF + RH (VD) vacuum treatment is adopted, the Ca treatment process is adopted for almost 100 percent of the denaturation treatment of the inclusions in the molten steel, and the Ca treatment can effectively improve the nodulation of a water gap and Al in the steel production2O3The large-scale inclusion removal problem of the denaturation treatment, so that the Ca treatment is widely applied to the smelting production of pipeline steel.
It was found that only liquid phase inclusions with a diameter of more than 25 μm could be removed by flotation, and that the influence of these 15-25 μm inclusions remaining in the molten steel on the steel quality is very detrimental, even if a small fraction of 15-25 μm inclusions is still present in the molten steel after calcium treatment, and even larger calcium aluminate inclusions are found in Ca treated aluminium killed steel, which inclusions cause serious steel quality problems. The method is particularly unfavorable for pipeline steel, particularly acid-resistant pipeline steel and submarine pipeline steel in a corrosive environment, and in addition, inclusions with the diameter of more than 15 mu m are easy to cause hydrogen-induced cracking and hydrogen bubbling of a steel plate, so that the service quality safety of the pipeline steel is seriously threatened.
And Mg oxide is used in pipeline steel for high heat input welding and improving the toughness of a heat affected zone. At present, molten steel Mg treatment is mainly concentrated on ship plate steel and pipeline steel, and is in a test research stage, and few reports are given on industrial batch Mg treatment; the invention of China patent application CN 106399633A relates to a process for treating liquid magnesium in ship plate steel, which adopts Mg-Al core-spun alloy wires to carry out Mg treatment after LF (RH), the feeding position is the position opposite to the two air bricks of a steel ladle and at the radius position from 1/3 to 1/2 of the center of the steel ladle, the wire feeding speed is 2.5 to 4.0 m.s < -1 >, and the soft blowing is more than or equal to 12min after the wire feeding; the Chinese patent application CN102181802A discloses a preparation method of easily-welded high-strength-toughness X80G pipeline steel treated by magnesium, and the laboratory vacuum induction furnace adopts magnesium treatment to obtain the high-strength-toughness X80 pipeline steel, but the technical process is not reported.
Disclosure of Invention
The applicant finds in the course of the invention that: mg can reduce the size of large-particle-size inclusions in the aspect of modifying the inclusions in steel, so that magnesium treatment is carried out on molten steel when the preparation rate is high, and the technical bias is overcome. After Mg treatment, small, hard and spinel oxides are mostly formed in the steel, which oxides are not deformed during rolling. This oxide is much smaller than that of steel which is usually treated with Ca. In Mg-treated steels, solid MgO. Al is formed2O3Spinel, which is not in the form of clusters but randomly distributed in the steel. Although in Mg-treated steels a large amount of small (< 3 μm) oxides precipitate, such small oxide inclusions have hardly any adverse effect on the mechanical properties of the steel. The edges of the steel treated with Mg, which are made of small spinel oxides, are almost all rounded, which is in contrast to Al with sharp corners2O3The inclusions are different. Such spinelsThe oxide can neither initiate the formation of voids nor act like ordinary Al2O3Inclusions act as a source of stress. Therefore, the pair of inclusions present in the Mg-treated steel is H2Both HIC and SSCC properties of S are better than those of Ca treatment.
Meanwhile, the applicant finds that when magnesium is treated on molten steel, the safety problem of explosion can be caused by directly adding Mg no matter in an RH or VD process, and in addition, the Mg has low density and can be on the surface of the molten steel when being added; mg has a low boiling point, is gasified before being added, and is difficult to dissolve in molten steel.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that these specific embodiments and examples are for the purpose of illustrating the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention.
Throughout the specification, unless otherwise specifically noted, terms used herein should be understood as having meanings as commonly used in the art. Accordingly, unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. If there is a conflict, the present specification will control.
Unless otherwise specifically stated, various raw materials, reagents, instruments, equipment and the like used in the present invention are commercially available or can be prepared by existing methods.
In order to solve the technical problems, the general idea of the embodiment of the application is as follows:
in China, the research on the molten steel Mg treatment technology is mostly used in the experimental and basic theory research stages, and the popularization and application of the industrial technology are not reported in a public way. The invention provides an aluminum killed steel Mg treatment process technology based on an aluminum killed steel production process. Comprises a set of process technologies such as raw material preparation, adding station, method and corresponding process treatment applied in the Mg treatment industry. The technology can realize safe and efficient industrial batch application of the Mg treatment process under atmosphere or vacuum negative pressure under different working conditions in production. The aim of fine control of the series of high-quality aluminum killed steel on the inclusion is met.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a method of manufacturing a low-inclusion aluminum killed steel, the method including:
smelting and continuously casting molten aluminum killed steel to obtain aluminum killed steel;
the method comprises the following steps of smelting aluminum killed steel molten steel, and carrying out magnesium treatment on the aluminum killed steel molten steel, wherein the magnesium treatment comprises adding magnesium-containing alloy into the aluminum killed steel molten steel.
As an alternative embodiment, the magnesium-containing alloy includes at least one of a Ni-Mg alloy and a Mg-Al alloy. In other embodiments, the magnesium-containing alloy may be selected from Si-Mg alloys, rare earth Si-Mg alloys, Mg-Fe alloys, and the like, which are conceivable to those skilled in the art, and are not listed here.
The applicant finds in the course of the invention that: vacuum treatment is generally adopted when high-quality clean steel such as pipeline steel and the like is smelted in industrial production, no matter in RH or VD process, explosion safety problem can be caused by directly adding Mg, the Mg has low density and can be on the surface of molten steel when being added, meanwhile, the boiling point of the Mg is low, the Mg is gasified before being added and is difficult to dissolve in the molten steel, in addition, the chemical activity of the Mg is very strong, the Mg can be combined with oxygen and sulfur nitrogen to lose alloying effect, the Mg is vaporized before contacting the molten steel at the steelmaking temperature and forms high-pressure Mg steam, the steam pressure formed by gasifying the Mg reaches 1.86MPa, and violent oxidation can be generated by oxygen to generate explosion, so that the Mg is dangerous when being directly added into the molten steel, and how to safely add the Mg into the molten steel becomes the technical problem which needs to be solved in the Mg adding process.
By adopting the design, the characteristics of low melting point, small density, high vapor pressure, active chemical property and the like of Mg elements are overcome by changing the adding form of Mg, the problem of safe Mg addition is solved by adopting a method of increasing the melting point and the density and reducing the vapor pressure and the chemical activity, and the safe Mg addition is realized by adopting an intermediate alloy form of Ni-Mg, Mg-Al and the like. In practice, the Ni — Mg alloy is generally selected to have a composition comprising, by weight: ni 70-90% and Mg 10-30%, wherein the selected Mg-Al alloy comprises the following components: al 40-50%, Mg 10-15%, and Fe in balance.
The method for adding magnesium-containing alloy into molten aluminum killed steel is divided into two modes, namely a feeding method and a wire feeding method.
As an alternative embodiment, the method for adding the magnesium-containing alloy into the molten aluminum-killed steel is a charging method, and the charging method specifically comprises the following steps: and putting the magnesium-containing alloy into the molten aluminum-killed steel in a protective gas atmosphere, wherein the pressure of the protective gas atmosphere is as follows: 40-100KPa, and the granularity of the magnesium-containing alloy is less than or equal to 30 mm. Specifically, the protective gas atmosphere may be argon, nitrogen, or CO2Etc.; it should be noted that no protective atmosphere is required under atmospheric pressure, and the atmosphere is protected when the closed vessel is melted, such as under vacuum.
The effect of protective gas atmosphere inhibits the evaporation of magnesium, Mg is particularly active in the process of directly adding into molten steel under vacuum, eruption occurs when the Mg is serious, protective gas with certain pressure is filled into a smelting space, the evaporation of Mg is inhibited, the higher the pressure is, the higher the Mg yield is, and the pressure for controlling the protective gas atmosphere is: the reason for 40-100KPa is that the cost is too high when the air pressure is too large, and the adverse effect of too small is insufficient pressure and insufficient inhibition of Mg volatilization.
The reason for controlling the granularity of the magnesium-containing alloy to be less than or equal to 30mm is that the granularity of the Mg alloy is too large, and when molten steel is added, the local Mg vapor pressure of the molten steel is large, so that the molten steel is easy to erupt, and the yield of the alloy is unfavorable. When the alloy cored wire is added, the Mg alloy particle size wrapped by the alloy wire is smaller, and the size is generally below 5 mm.
As an alternative embodiment, the method for adding the magnesium-containing alloy into the molten aluminum killed steel comprises a wire feeding method, and the wire feeding method specifically comprises the following steps: feeding the aluminum killed steel molten steel into a magnesium-containing alloy core-spun yarn, wherein the granularity of the magnesium-containing alloy is 1-3 mm.
The reason for controlling the granularity of the magnesium-containing alloy to be 1mm-3mm is to consider that the comprehensive alloy yield is higher, the adverse effect of overlarge granularity value is that the local steam pressure of the alloy is high, the Mg element is quickly evaporated, the adverse effect of undersize is that the specific gravity is too low and is taken away by high-temperature steam, and both the alloy yield and the magnesium-containing alloy can cause the alloy yield to be reduced.
The applicant finds in the course of the invention that: the sizes of inclusions existing in the existing Ca-treated aluminum killed steel are still found to be large, the inclusions are not completely removed after the Ca treatment, the Mg yield is low in the Mg treatment before the vacuum premise, the Mg content in the steel is extremely low or too high after the vacuum Mg treatment, so that the quality of the product is unstable, the effect of the inclusion modification process is influenced, and the problem of how to define the proper Mg content to ensure the inclusion modification effect is solved.
In this embodiment, the amount of the wire feeding of the magnesium-containing alloy cored wire is 0.0002% to 0.0018% of the molten aluminum killed steel by weight; the wire feeding depth of the magnesium-containing alloy cored wire is 0.6-0.8 time of the depth of the molten steel; the wire feeding speed of the magnesium-containing alloy cored wire is 3m/s-6 m/s.
According to Al present in the molten steel2O3Determination of the content of inclusions and Al2O3The minimum Mg content wire feeding amount required by the modification of the inclusion, the excessive adverse effect of the wire feeding amount is that the wire feeding cost is high, single-particle MgO and other inclusions can be generated when the Mg is high, in addition, the Mg content in the added molten steel is difficult to reach more than 0.0018 percent, and the excessive adverse effect is that a large amount of harmful Al in the steel cannot be influenced2O3Modifying the impurities.
The reason for controlling the wire feeding depth of the magnesium-containing alloy cored wire to be 0.6-0.8 time of the depth of the molten steel is to ensure that effective content of Mg alloy enters the molten steel under the condition of safety and no occurrence of violent boiling of the molten steel, the adverse effect of overlarge depth value is influenced by the activity of the Mg alloy, the violent boiling of the molten steel exists, the adverse effect of undersize is that the Mg alloy wire cannot reach the inside of the molten steel, magnesium vapor quickly floats to the upper layer of the molten steel, homogenization cannot be realized, and the yield is low.
The reason for controlling the wire feeding speed of the magnesium-containing alloy cored wire to be 3m/s-6m/s is to safely and efficiently control the safety of the wire feeding process and stabilize the yield of Mg, the adverse effect of overlarge speed value is that the molten steel is violently boiled due to a large amount of Mg steam in the molten steel, the safety is affected, meanwhile, the local Mg content is high, part of Mg directly generates MgO, the useful Mg content for modification is reduced, and the adverse effect of undersize is that the smelting period is prolonged, and the production efficiency is reduced.
In the embodiment, after the wire feeding is finished, the molten aluminum killed steel is subjected to soft argon blowing, wherein the time for soft argon blowing is 3-8 min.
The soft argon blowing has the effect of promoting the homogenization and modification effects of the alloy, and the reason for controlling the soft argon blowing time to be 3-8 min is to save the time as much as possible on the premise of ensuring the homogenization and modification effects of the alloy.
As an alternative embodiment, the timing of the magnesium treatment is: after molten steel of the aluminum killed steel is subjected to slag deoxidation, molten steel sulfur reduction and molten steel alloying fine adjustment operation.
Analysis of the effect of molten steel conditions on Mg treatment should ensure effective Mg-to-Al in the steel2O3Deformation treatment, wherein Mg is lost by oxygen in slag and molten steel, and in order to reduce the loss of Mg consumption caused by oxidation of slag and molten steel, the oxygen potential of the slag needs to be ensured to be lower before Mg is added, and Mg treatment is preferably carried out after slag modification (white slag making), deoxidation and fine adjustment of all alloying are finished; meanwhile, in actual operation, it should be noted that: the molten steel treated by Mg should not stay for a long time, so that the pollution and secondary oxidation of the furnace lining to the low-oxygen clean molten steel after Mg treatment are reduced. In addition, too high S content in the molten steel before Mg treatment can also affect the modification of Mg to oxidesThe sexual effect is that Mg in the molten steel with lower oxygen content can be combined with S in the steel to form MgS inclusion, thereby influencing the direct Al-to-Mg ratio2O3And (5) deformation processing. Also, higher molten steel temperatures are detrimental to Mg processing yields. In summary, the molten steel state before Mg treatment should be maintained at a proper temperature, low oxygen and sulfur contents, and all alloying adjustments are completed, and specifically, the oxygen content in the molten steel is preferably less than 0.003% and the sulfur content in the molten steel is preferably less than 0.003%, and the temperature is preferably controlled to be less than 80 ℃ of the superheat degree of the molten steel, and preferably, the temperature of the molten steel is a low temperature.
In conclusion, in combination with the production of the steel-making industry, certain top slag modification and molten steel deoxidation are required before feeding the Mg wire, the oxygen potential of the slag is reduced to produce the oxygen content in white slag and molten steel, and the top slag modification and the molten steel are also required to be placed after LF refining or vacuum refining is finished in the process sequence. Taking the pipeline steel as an example, the pipeline steel process comprises the following steps: smelting → LF → RH (VD) refining → continuous casting, which needs to be carried out under the atmospheric pressure after vacuum treatment, in order to ensure less splashing in the process of adding Mg wire, in the actual operation, the speed can be reduced when the Mg alloy wire is fed initially, and the speed is gradually increased after the liquid level of the added Mg alloy wire boils stably, so that a balance speed is found through practice. And after feeding the Mg wire, performing bottom blowing Ar3-8 minutes to promote the uniformity of alloy elements and the Mg treatment effect. In order to ensure the Mg treatment effect, the electric spark direct-reading spectrum analyzer is used for quickly analyzing the steel-making molten steel samples by utilizing Mg-containing standard samples.
