And the degree of superheat of the molten steel in example 1.13 is 10 ℃, the produced high-carbon steel continuous casting blank is worse than that in example 1.11 in terms of central crack, proportion of shrinkage cavity less than or equal to 0.5 and carbon segregation index, which is probably caused by the fact that when the degree of superheat of the molten steel is less than 15 ℃, the fluidity of the molten steel is poor, and the molten steel starts to change to a solid phase, so that the casting of the molten steel and the floating of nonmetallic inclusion in the molten steel are influenced.
By combining the embodiment 1.11 and the comparative example 1-2, the electromagnetic stirring mode of the crystallizer is adopted in the comparative example 1, and the prepared high-carbon steel continuous casting blank is worse than the embodiment 1.11 in the aspects of central crack, the proportion of shrinkage cavity less than or equal to 0.5 and the carbon segregation index; in comparative example 2, the ratio of the central crack, shrinkage cavity less than or equal to 0.5 and carbon segregation index of the prepared high-carbon steel continuous casting blank are inferior to those of example 1.11, probably due to the combined electric stirring mode of the electromagnetic stirring of the crystallizer and the electromagnetic stirring of the solidification end adopted in example 1.11, when the molten steel moves into the crystallizer, the electromagnetic stirring of the crystallizer drives the molten steel to rotate, so that the components in the molten steel are uniformly dispersed, the possibility of segregation in the crystallizer is reduced, and when the formed steel shell moves to a secondary cooling zone under tension and the like, the liquid core in the steel shell is gradually solidified, and at the moment, the electromagnetic stirring of the solidification end enables the liquid core in the steel shell to rotate, so that the components in the liquid core are further uniformly dispersed, and the components in the liquid core are not easy to cause segregation in the solidification process of the liquid core.
In example 1.14 of the present application, the influence of the distance of the electromagnetic stirring at the solidification end from the meniscus of the crystallizer on the produced high-carbon steel continuous casting slab was examined by taking example 1.11 as a control. As a result, it was found that the distance from the solidification end to the meniscus of the crystallizer in example 1.14 was 11.1m, and the produced high-carbon steel continuous casting billet was inferior to example 1.11 in terms of the ratio of the central crack, shrinkage cavity of 0.5 or less and the carbon segregation index, probably due to the fact that the area of the unset liquid core was small and the area of the liquid core due to the electromagnetic stirring was reduced when the formed steel shell driven the liquid core to move to the solidification end electromagnetic stirring place due to the increase of the distance from the solidification end to the meniscus of the crystallizer.
In the present application, example 1.15 examined the influence of the drawing speed on the produced high-carbon steel continuous casting slab by taking example 1.11 as a control. As a result, it was found that the drawing rate of example 1.15 was lower than that of example 1.11, and the produced high-carbon steel continuous casting slab was inferior to example 1.11 in terms of the ratio of center crack, shrinkage cavity.ltoreq.0.5 and carbon segregation index, probably due to the gradual solidification and segregation of the liquid core in the steel shell and the reduction of the liquid core area by electromagnetic stirring action at the solidification end when the steel shell reached the solidification end.
Examples 1.2 to 1.3 examined the influence of electromagnetic stirring modes at different solidification ends on the produced high-carbon steel continuous casting blank by taking example 1.11 as a control. As a result, it was found that the high-carbon steel continuous casting slab produced in example 1.2 was inferior to example 1.11 in terms of the central crack, the ratio of shrinkage cavity to 0.5 and the carbon segregation index, probably due to the fact that the solidification end applied a reverse force to the liquid core while maintaining the inertia of the forward rotation and the solidification end applied a reverse force to the liquid core, so that the liquid core was moved outside the steel shell and impacted the side wall of the steel shell.
In the embodiment 1.3, the mode of stirring in a single direction is adopted, and the prepared high-carbon steel continuous casting blank is worse than the embodiment 1.11 in the aspects of central crack, the proportion of shrinkage cavity less than or equal to 0.5 and the carbon segregation index, which is probably caused by the fact that the liquid core always rotates in a single direction and forms centrifugal force, so that the impact is generated on the side wall of the steel shell.
In embodiment 1.11, the method of stopping 3s after forward rotation and then reversing is adopted, so that the inertia of the liquid core is gradually reduced in the process of driving the liquid core to change direction by the solidification tail end, thereby facilitating the driving of the liquid core to change direction and reducing the impact of the liquid core on the side wall of the steel shell.
Examples 2.1 to 2.3 examined the effect of different secondary cooling modes on the high carbon steel continuous casting slab produced by taking example 1.11 as a control. As a result, it was found that the high-carbon steel continuous casting billets prepared in examples 2.1 to 2.3 were each inferior to example 1.11 in terms of the central crack, the ratio of shrinkage cavity to 0.5 or less and the carbon segregation index, probably due to the fact that when the cold water was directly cooled down the billets, the cold water was difficult to uniformly contact with the surface of the steel shell, so that the surface of the steel shell was unevenly cooled down, and the impact was caused to the surface of the steel shell when the cold water contacted with the steel shell.
In the embodiment 1.11, the aerosol cooling mode is adopted, and the impact on the surface of the steel shell is reduced while the surface of the steel shell is uniformly cooled, so that the adverse effects on the central crack, shrinkage cavity and carbon segregation of the prepared high-carbon steel continuous casting blank are reduced.
And the high-carbon steel continuous casting blank prepared in the example 2.1 is superior to the example 2.2 and the example 2.3 in the aspects of the central crack, the shrinkage cavity and the carbon segregation index, which are all superior to those of the example 2.2 and the example 2.3, and the method of stopping 3s and reversing after forward rotation is adopted in the same water cooling mode, so that the central crack, the shrinkage cavity and the carbon segregation of the high-carbon steel continuous casting blank prepared are better than those of the method of immediately reversing or stirring in a single direction after forward rotation.
3. Composition segregation
11 high-carbon steel continuous casting billets are prepared according to the control process described in the embodiment 1.11, the prepared 11 continuous casting billets are subjected to in-line detection and sampling for 9 points, and the segregation indexes of C, mn and Cr components of the sampling points are detected according to the detection standard of national standard GB/T33165-2016 of high-carbon steel wire rod center segregation quantitative analysis method, so that the average value and the extremely poor value are obtained.
Referring to fig. 1, the average value of carbon segregation of each high-carbon steel continuous casting slab manufactured by the control process of example 1.11 was about 1.00, and the difference value was 0.15 or less, so that it was found that the cross section of the manufactured continuous casting slab was not greatly different in carbon segregation index from edge to core, and carbon elements were uniformly distributed in the manufactured high-carbon steel continuous casting slab.
Referring to fig. 2, the average value of manganese segregation of each high-carbon steel continuous casting blank prepared by the control process of example 1.11 is about 1.00, and the difference value is below 0.075, so that the manganese segregation indexes of the cross section of the prepared continuous casting blank from the edge to the core are not greatly different, and manganese elements are uniformly distributed in the prepared high-carbon steel continuous casting blank.
Referring to fig. 3, the average value of chromium segregation of each high-carbon steel continuous casting slab manufactured by the control process of example 1.11 is about 1.00, and the difference value is between 0.10 and 0.15, so that the cross section of the manufactured continuous casting slab has a small difference between the chromium segregation indexes from the edge to the core, and the chromium elements are uniformly distributed in the manufactured high-carbon steel continuous casting slab.
As can be seen from fig. 1-3, the carbon element, manganese element and chromium element are all uniformly distributed in the high-carbon steel continuous casting billet prepared by the control process of example 1.11, which indicates that the control process of example 1.11 is better in improving the segregation of the steel billet components and further improving the central crack, shrinkage cavity and carbon segregation index of the high-carbon steel continuous casting billet.

The present application is described in detail below in conjunction with the test data provided in table 2.
In combination with the wire rods produced by application of examples 1-2 and the wire rods produced by comparative examples 1-2, it was found that the wire rods produced by application of examples 1-2 were superior to the wire rods produced by comparative examples 1-2 in terms of net-like carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break, which means that the control process of examples 1-2 according to the present application was superior in terms of improving net-like carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break of the produced wire rods, and was more conducive to reducing the possibility of breakage of the wire rods during drawing.
As a result of comparing the superheat degree of molten steel with application examples 1.11 to 1.13, it was found that the wire rods produced in application example 1.11 exhibited better in terms of net-like carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break, which means that controlling the superheat degree of molten steel in the range of 20.+ -. 5 ℃ exhibited better in terms of net-like carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break for the wire rods produced by improvement.
In combination with application example 1.11 and comparative application examples 1-2, it was found that the mesh carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break of the wire rod prepared in comparative example 1 by electromagnetic stirring with a crystallizer were inferior to application example 1.11; the mesh carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break of the wire rod prepared in comparative example 2 by means of electromagnetic stirring at the solidification end are inferior to those of application example 1.11, which means that the control process of example 1.11 is advantageous for improving the mesh carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break of the wire rod prepared.
Using application example 1.11 as a control, the effect of the distance of the electromagnetic stirring at the solidification end from the meniscus of the crystallizer on the wire rod produced was examined in application example 1.14. As a result, it was found that the distance of the solidification end electromagnetic stirring from the meniscus of the mold in example 1.14 was 11.1m, and the net-like carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break of the produced wire rod were inferior to those of application example 1.11, probably due to the fact that the increase of the distance of the solidification end electromagnetic stirring from the meniscus of the mold, the solidification end electromagnetic stirring was difficult to exert a sufficient effect, the prevention of segregation of the components of the continuous casting slab was difficult, and the mechanical properties of the produced wire rod were not improved.
Application example 1.15 examined the effect of pull rate on the wire rod produced, with application example 1.11 as a control. As a result, it was found that the drawing rate of example 1.15 was lower than that of example 1.11, and the net-like carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after fracture of the produced wire rod were all inferior to those of application example 1.11, probably due to the fact that the drawing rate was lowered, the liquid core in the steel shell was gradually solidified and the component was segregated when the steel shell reached the solidification end, the electromagnetic stirring at the solidification end was difficult to prevent the component segregation, and the mechanical properties of the wire rod were not improved.
Using application example 1.11 as a control, application examples 1.2 to 1.3 examined the influence of different coagulation-end electromagnetic stirring modes on the produced wire rods. As a result, it was found that the wire rods produced in example 1.11 were superior in terms of net-shape carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break by stopping for 3 seconds after normal rotation, which suggests that the two-cold stirring process of example 1.11 is advantageous for improving net-shape carbide, tensile strength, reduction of area and elongation after break of the wire rods produced.
