Background
The conventional cutting tool steel is not suitable for bending parts with complicated shapes because the carbon content is high, the hot rolled structure mainly comprises pearlite, the brittleness is high, and the cutting tool steel cracks after being bent at a small angle. With the development of times, the cutting tool steel has wider and higher application and higher performance requirements, and not only the use hardness of the cutting tool steel is required to be more than 42HRC after heat treatment, but also the processed shape is more and more complex. In order to meet the bending processing requirements of some complex parts, cold-rolled annealed cutting tool steel is generally adopted as a raw material, the bending use requirements can be met through multi-pass annealing and cold rolling, and the production cost is high. The composition and structure of the hot rolled plate are main factors influencing the bending performance and the service hardness of the hot rolled plate, the surface oxidation and decarburization are also one of the main factors influencing the hardness and the bending performance of the hot rolled plate, and the production efficiency is low because the decarburization layer is deep and the grinding amount is large. At present, the surface decarburized layer depth of the high carbon blade steel is generally controlled to about 2.0% of the plate thickness, and the optimum level of the full thickness specification does not exceed 1.0% of the plate thickness, and the control becomes difficult as the plate thickness becomes larger.
On the other hand, the oil fume generated by heat treatment quenching seriously pollutes the environment and the heating energy consumption is large.

The hardness of the hot rolled plate is below 100HRB, and the hardness of the hot rolled plate can reach the hardness above 37HRC required by use only by a plurality of heat treatment processes such as quenching, tempering and the like, so that the cost is high and the efficiency is low.

Magnesium is a very active metal element, which has strong affinity with oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur. Therefore, magnesium is a good deoxidizer and desulfurizer in steel smelting. However, because magnesium is too active, it is not easy to control during smelting, and it is very easy to form inclusions with oxygen, nitrogen, etc. to affect the purity of steel. The invention adopts a unique refining and Re-Mg smelting technology to strictly and accurately control steelThe content of Mg in the alloy is determined by the coaction of Ca and Mg to generate CaO, MgO and Al2O3And CaO, MgO and MnS composite inclusions, which have low melting point and are easy to solidify, float and remove in molten steel, avoid the problem of nozzle nodulation in the continuous casting process, reduce the inclusion content in the molten steel and control the inclusion level in steel not to exceed 1.0 level.

The Ca/Re is more than or equal to 0.02, which can ensure that enough Ca can improve the yield of the rare earth and play a role in coarsening and controlling the interlayer spacing of the sorbite and annealing to easily obtain a spheroidized structure. The casting blank has the advantages that the high-content Re on the surface of the casting blank also cooperates with Sn to generate a ReSnC granular phase which is pinned in grains and at a grain boundary, so that the surface hardness is improved, and the surface oxidation and decarburization are inhibited.
P and S are both inevitable harmful impurities in steel, and their presence seriously deteriorates the toughness of steel, so that measures are taken to reduce the contents of P and S in steel as much as possible while taking into consideration the economical efficiency thereof. The invention limits the highest P content to 0.020% and the highest S content to 0.015%. In the present invention, since sulfur exists in the form of FeS and MnS in steel, Mn is high and MnS tends to be formed, and although the melting point is high and hot embrittlement can be avoided, MnS can be elongated in the machine direction during deformation by machining, and plasticity, toughness and fatigue strength of steel are significantly reduced, Ca, Mg and Re are added to steel to perform inclusion modification treatment.

Therefore, a certain amount of tin is added into the steel, so that the graphitization precipitation of the high-carbon steel can be effectively prevented, and the comprehensive properties such as strength, wear resistance and the like are improved. In addition to strengthening the steel matrix, Sn dissolved in the steel can also generate SnC hard phases with C, and the SnC hard phases block the deformation of cementite in sorbite during the third rolling, so that the cementite is more easily broken.

The cutting tool steel has high carbon, oxygen content is difficult to control, the molten steel has poor fluidity, and in order to improve the fluidity of the molten steel, the deoxidation is sufficient, Al deoxidizer is firstly used for deoxidation, after the oxygen content is less than or equal to 0.0020 percent, Ca is added for at least 5 minutes, and then Re-Mg alloy and Sn are added. Ca, Mg and Re in the components of the invention are all active elements, are difficult to control during smelting, and the adding sequence is very important. Al is generated in the steel after Al addition and deoxidation2O3Impurities, if the refractory material of the lining is poor, MgO. Al will be formed2O3And the melting point of the Al oxide inclusions is high, the Al oxide inclusions are not easy to solidify and float in steel, on one hand, the fluidity of molten steel is reduced, a pouring nozzle is blocked, on the other hand, the inclusions in the steel are increased, and the bending and fatigue properties of the steel are influenced. Adding Al for deoxidation, and then adding Ca for treatment, wherein the Ca can break the original long strip Al2O3 and MgO & Al2O3And MnS inclusions, which are wrapped outside the intermittent inclusions to generate spherical CaO, MgO, Al in a dispersed distribution2O3Or CaO.

And after the casting blank is off-line, the casting blank is placed into a slow cooling pit for slow cooling for more than 72 hours, so that the tool steel casting blank with relatively high alloy content is prevented from cracking under the action of stress, and SnC particles are generated in the steel to prepare for crushing the carbide sheet for the third rolling. And the generation of ReSnC is promoted, the ReSnC is uniformly dispersed and distributed on the surface of a casting blank, and the depth of a surface hardening particle layer of the rolled steel plate is more than 10 percent of the thickness of the steel plate.

After the third rolling, a ReSnC hardened particle layer with the dispersion distribution diameter not more than 20nm is formed below the surface of the steel plate, the depth of the hardened particle layer is not less than 10% of the thickness of the steel plate, and simultaneously, the surface oxidation and decarburization are inhibited, so that the surface hardness of the steel plate does not need to be heat treated and is more than 48HRC, and the wear rate is not more than 30 mg/km.
