Description

20CrNiMo bearing piece and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of powder metallurgy, in particular to a 20CrNiMo bearing piece and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The development of low carbon in automobiles has put new demands on automobile materials and manufacturing processes. Under the 'double carbon' goal, the energy-saving, green and cyclic process becomes the development trend of new automobile materials and new processes, and the light-weight, green materials and cyclic utilization become the main development direction of new automobile materials. The automobile engine part, the generator part, the turbocharger part and the transmission part comprise precise power transmission structures such as shafts, gears, guide wheels, brackets and the like with various structures, and the running requirements such as rotating speed, torque, direction change and the like are realized by utilizing the meshing of the gears with different diameters. The precise power transmission structure has very complex production process, and casting is the simplest process, but has general performance and is more suitable for the condition of larger product size; the forging has better fatigue performance, but the structural freedom degree is greatly limited; extrusion and cold drawing also face the problems of large subsequent machining amount and low material utilization rate; powder metallurgy is suitable for forming various products such as gears and the like with uniform shapes, but is also not suitable for manufacturing support structures with special-shaped thin-wall complex structures, air holes in powder metallurgy products cannot be completely eliminated, and fatigue performance of the products is not as high as that of forgings.
The metal powder injection molding technology (Metal powderinjection molding, MIM) was produced in the 70 s of the 20 th century, and is a rapid net-shape powder forming technology formed by introducing a modern plastic injection molding process into the field of powder metallurgy. As an advanced technology in the field of powder metallurgy, MIM can be used for near-net forming of parts with fine grains, complex structure and small surface roughness, and is suitable for mass and high-efficiency production. With the push of light weight and dual carbon targets, the MIM technology is gradually replacing the traditional processing and molding technology, and is more applied to the production of parts in the fields of automobiles, electronic instruments and the like.
The 20CrNiMo low-carbon alloy steel is high-quality low-carbon fine grain alloy steel, and the composition of the alloy steel is similar to that of American SAE8620H and Japanese SNCM 220. The steel is added with a small amount of nickel element and molybdenum element, so that the steel can bear a certain high temperature, and the hardenability and toughness are improved. The 20CrNiMo has small heat treatment deformation, no tempering brittleness, relatively high hardness and wear resistance on the carburized surface, good toughness in the central part, and high impact load bearing, and may be used widely in producing automobile transmission gear, gear shaft, stepped shaft, guide wheel, transmission support and other parts with high impact resistance and wear resistance, and in producing the connecting rod valve section part of turbine gear whole rotor internal combustion engine.
At present, the research on 20CrNiMo steel is limited in China, mainly focuses on the aspects of steel grade development, heat processing and heat treatment process optimization, and has less research on MIM forming. Compared with MIM forming technology, the traditional hot working and cold working processes are more and more complex, and are inferior in the aspects of degree of freedom of formed parts, material utilization rate, energy consumption, pollution emission and the like. However, due to inherent process characteristics of MIM technology, the formed 20CrNiMo gear steel can form tiny holes which are dispersed and distributed in a part after sintering, and the density of the product is difficult to exceed 7.55g/cm 3 (corresponding to 96% of theoretical density). The porosity has less influence on the static mechanical properties of the material, but the dynamic mechanical properties of the material, especially toughness and fatigue properties, are very sensitive to a small amount of porosity. A small number of holes can lead to shortened service life of the material, and cannot meet the use requirements of high-quality automobile transmission parts.

In one embodiment, in the step (1), the degreasing treatment may be a solvent extraction-pyrolysis two-step degreasing method or a catalytic degreasing method depending on the kind of the binder.
When the binder is selected from paraffin 48-70%, carnauba wax 0-10%, polypropylene 20-40% and stearic acid 1-5%, the degreasing treatment adopts an extraction-thermal decomposition two-step degreasing method.
When the binder is 40-70% of polyformaldehyde, 10-25% of polyethylene, 10-25% of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, 1-5% of polypropylene and 1-5% of stearic acid, the degreasing treatment adopts a catalytic degreasing method.
Specifically, the extraction-thermal decomposition two-step degreasing method is specifically as follows: the solvent extraction adopts n-heptane or trichloroethane, the degreasing temperature is 60-95 ℃ and the degreasing time is 3-4 h, so as to remove the stoneWax component, opening pore channels.

In one embodiment, in step (2), the temperature is raised at a rate of 3 to 6 ℃/min when the temperature is less than 900 ℃ and 1 to 3 ℃/min when the temperature is greater than 900 ℃ during the first sintering.
After one sintering, the density of the material reaches 7.35-7.55 g/cm 3 The density is 92-95.5%.

In one embodiment, in the step (2), after the first sintering, the density of the material is 92-95.5%, and the density of the 20CrNiMo bearing piece is 100%.
The sintering process is a densification process in which powder particles are bonded together when the material is heated to a high temperature, and sintering densification in conventional powder injection molding processes is performed near the melting point of the material by virtue of grain boundary diffusion and migration, with atoms moving along the grain boundaries between two nearly complete grain regions, forming a continuous flow of material, eliminating or reducing voids. However, grain boundary diffusion inevitably causes grain growth, affecting the service properties of the final product. The densification surface diffusion is usually dominant in the low-temperature sintering stage, and the invention rapidly sinters at low temperature and slowly heats at high temperature by controlling the temperature rising rate, sintering temperature and time of the first sintering, so as to reduce the heat preservation temperature and the heat preservation time as much as possible. The first sintering temperature exceeds the austenite transformation temperature, but is lower than the conventional injection molding sintering temperature, and the density of the material after the first sintering is controlled to be 92-95.5%; the second sintering temperature may be lower than or exceeding the austenite transformation temperature, but is generally lower than the first sintering temperature, both controlling grain growth and ensuring densification of the material.
In addition, according to the growth kinetics of the crystal grains, along with the increase of the heating temperature and the extension of the heat preservation time, the diffusion capability of atoms is enhanced, the crystal grains are mutually engulfed, the surface area of the crystal grain boundary is reduced, and the crystal grains grow up. The temperature and time of the first sintering are controlled, so that the density of the product is more than 92-95.5%, the grain growth is reduced as much as possible, and the mechanical property of the final product is improved; meanwhile, the second sintering is carried out under a high-temperature and high-pressure environment, the sintering temperature, time and pressure are controlled, so that the internal pores of the 20CrNiMo bearing piece are eliminated, the densification is further carried out, and the density of the finally prepared 20CrNiMo bearing piece is 100%.
The second sintering temperature is lower than the first sintering temperature, so that the growth of crystal grains caused by long-time action of high temperature is avoided, the average grain size of the material prepared by the method is 22-39 mu m, and the density of the material can reach theoretical density after the twice sintering treatment.
In another embodiment of the invention, a 20CrNiMo force bearing member prepared by the method is disclosed.
The invention discloses an application of the 20CrNiMo bearing piece prepared by the method in automobiles.
The 20CrNiMo bearing piece comprises a small shaft, a gear, a guide wheel, a bracket and other precise power transmission structures used in automobiles.
The method has scientific raw material selection and strict proportion, and can realize the mass production and the stable production of the high-quality automobile 20CrNiMo bearing parts with fine grains by regulating and controlling all relevant parameters in the material production process. The 20CrNiMo special-shaped piece with high density and fine crystal grains can be successfully prepared through reasonable powder particle size collocation, binder selection, a high-efficiency degreasing method and a lower sintering temperature, and the material can obtain excellent strength, toughness, wear resistance and fatigue performance matching through proper tempering treatment or carburizing treatment according to the subsequent specific use requirements, so that the light-weight and high-performance requirements of the vehicle material are met.
