Abstract

1. Inert salt bath for heating steels to austenitizing temperature, consisting of a mixture of essentially alkaline and alkaline earth chlorides and a regenerator, characterized in that from 0,01 to 2 % by weight of a polymeric carbon and nitrogen-containing organic compound are added to the salt mixture as regenerator.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein inertes Salzbad zum Erwärmen von Stählen auf Austenitisierungstemperaturen, bestehend aus einem Gemisch von im wesentlichen Alkali- und Erdalkalichloriden und einem Regenerator.The invention relates to an inert salt bath for heating steels to austenitizing temperatures, consisting of a mixture of essentially alkali and alkaline earth chlorides and a regenerator.

Zum Härten von Strahlteilen, wie beispielsweise Werkzeugen, müssen die Teile auf die Austenitisierungstemperaturerwärmtwerden. Diese Erwärmung erfolgt in vielen Fällen in Salzbädern. Dabei muss die Erwärmung im Salzbad aber so erfolgen, dass die Oberfläche der zu härtenden Bauteile keinerlei chemische Veränderungen erfährt. Die verwendeten Salzbäder sollen also zum Beispiel weder eine Sauerstoffeinwirkung ausüben, wodurch Entkohlung eintreten könnte, noch sollte eine Aufkohlung stattfinden, die bei entsprechenden Härtetemperaturen eventuell zu Aufschmelzungen und damit zur Zerstörung der Werkstücke führen kann. Auch sollen sie nicht korrodierend wirken.To harden beam parts such as tools, the parts must be heated to the austenitizing temperature. In many cases, this heating takes place in salt baths. However, heating in the salt bath must be such that the surface of the components to be hardened does not undergo any chemical changes. The salt baths used should therefore, for example, neither exert an oxygen effect, which could result in decarburization, nor should carburization take place, which may lead to melting and thus destruction of the workpieces at appropriate hardening temperatures. Nor should they have a corrosive effect.

Salzschmelzen zum Erwärmen von Stahlteilen auf Austenitisierungstemperatur enthalten im allgemeinen Chloride der Alkali- und Erdalkalimetalle, meist Chloride von Natrium, Kalium und Barium. Die Zusammensetzung richtet sich nach dem besonderen Anwendungsfall, insbesondere nach der Arbeitstemperatur, d.h. dem Schmelzpunkt des Salzgemisches. Schmelzen dieserArt, die aus sehr reinen Substanzen hergestellt werden, erfüllen im allgemeinen die gestellten Anforderungen an die Oberflächenqualität, sie sind inert. Die Herstellung derartiger Glühbäder aus sehr reinen Substanzen ist jedoch sehr teuer, so dass man geringerwertige Ausgangsstoffe verwenden muss und damit die Inertheit der Bäder verliert. Dazu kommt, dass selbst ursprünglich inerte Glühbäder durch das Hereinschleppen von Verunreinigungen, insbesondere durch das unvermeidliche Hereinschleppen von Eisenoxid, Waschmittelreste, Bearbeitungsöle usw. ihren inerten Charakter verlieren. Dadurch kommt es nicht nur zur Entkohlung der Werkstücke, sondern auch zu einem vermehrten Korrosionsangriff auf die Bauteile und die Elektroden der die Salzschmelzen enthaltenden Öfen und damit zu höheren Kosten.Salt melts for heating steel parts to the austenitizing temperature generally contain chlorides of alkali and alkaline earth metals, mostly chlorides of sodium, potassium and barium. The composition depends on the particular application, in particular on the working temperature, i.e. the melting point of the salt mixture. Melting of this type, which are made from very pure substances, generally meet the requirements placed on the surface quality, they are inert. However, the production of such glow baths from very pure substances is very expensive, so that lower-quality starting materials have to be used and the baths' inertness is thus lost. In addition, even originally inert glow baths lose their inert character due to the introduction of impurities, in particular the inevitable introduction of iron oxide, detergent residues, processing oils, etc. This not only leads to decarburization of the workpieces, but also to an increased corrosion attack on the components and the electrodes of the furnaces containing the molten salts and thus at higher costs.

Um dennoch die gewünschte Inertheit der Salzschmelzen zu erreichen, arbeitet man mit sogenannten Regeneratoren oder Regenerierungsverfahren. Es ist bekannt, dass man Salzschmelzen für Hochtemperaturbäder, beispielsweise zum Härten von Schnellarbeitsstahl, Methylchlorid zusetzen kann, wodurch eine Abkohlung vermieden wird. Der Erfolg dieser Behandlung ist jedoch oft nicht ausreichend und auf jeden Fall nur vorübergehend, da während der Behandlung von Werkstükken eine Methylchlorideinleitung in die Schmelze nicht erfolgen darf.In order to nevertheless achieve the desired inertness of the salt melts, so-called regenerators or regeneration processes are used. It is known that molten salt for high-temperature baths, for example for hardening high-speed steel, can be added with methyl chloride, thereby avoiding decarburization. However, the success of this treatment is often not sufficient and in any case only temporarily, since methyl chloride must not be introduced into the melt during the treatment of workpieces.

Andere Stoffe, die als Regeneratoren verwendet werden, sind z.B. Silizium oder Siliziumcarbid. Das Silizium erfüllt zwar im allgemeinen den gewünschten Zweck, d.h. verhindert die Abkohlung, jedoch kommt es gelegentlich zum Aufsintern des Siliziums auf die Werkstückoberfläche, womit unter Umständen irreparable Schäden entstehen. Ausserdem bildet es im allgemeinen einen schwer entfernbaren zähen Schlamm in der Salzschmelze.Other substances used as regenerators are e.g. Silicon or silicon carbide. The silicon generally fulfills the desired purpose, i.e. prevents decarburization, but occasionally the silicon is sintered onto the workpiece surface, which may result in irreparable damage. In addition, it generally forms a tough sludge in the molten salt that is difficult to remove.

Siliziumcarbid hat praktisch die gleichen Nachteile wie das Silizium selbst, kann aber vor allen Dingen dann nicht verwendet werden, wenn eine Aufkohlung der Werkstückoberfläche unter allen Umständen vermieden werden muss.Silicon carbide has practically the same disadvantages as silicon itself, but above all it cannot be used if carburizing of the workpiece surface must be avoided under all circumstances.

Ähnlich arbeiten Regenerierungsverfahren, bei denen Kohle oder Graphit verwendet wird, z.B. in Form von Stäben, die in die Schmelze getaucht werden. Auch hier ist nicht zu vermeiden, dass Kohlepartikelchen im Bad verbleiben und damit eine aufkohlende Wirkung hervorrufen.Regeneration processes using coal or graphite, e.g. in the form of rods that are immersed in the melt. Here too it cannot be avoided that carbon particles remain in the bath and thus cause a carburizing effect.

Besonders wirksame Regenerierungssubstanzen sind für die sogenannten Hochtemperaturbäder gefunden worden. Dort verwendet man Magnesiumfluorid in Mischung mit Bortrioxid als Regenerator. Solche Bäder sind absolut inert. Dies setzt jedoch voraus, dass verhältnismässig grosse Mengen von Magnesiumfluorid (z.B. 6%) verwendet werden. Dieser hohe Zusatz führt jedoch zu einem verhältnismässig hohen Schlammanfall aus Magnesium- und Eisenoxid, was in solchen Fällen stört, wo die Elektrodenbeheizung der Salzbäder vom Boden her erfolgt. In solchen Fällen ist die Verwendung dieser Regeneratoren nicht möglich. Ausserdem sind sie nur bei Temperaturen über 1100° C verwendbar.Particularly effective regeneration substances have been found for the so-called high-temperature baths. There, magnesium fluoride mixed with boron trioxide is used as a regenerator. Such baths are absolutely inert. However, this requires that relatively large amounts of magnesium fluoride (e.g. 6%) are used. However, this high addition leads to a relatively high amount of sludge from magnesium and iron oxide, which is disturbing in those cases where the electrode heating of the salt baths takes place from the bottom. In such cases, the use of these regenerators is not possible. In addition, they can only be used at temperatures above 1100 ° C.

Es war daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein inertes Salzbad zum Erwärmen von Stählen auf Austenitisierungstemperatur zu finden, bestehend aus einem Gemisch von im wesentlichen Alkali- und Erdalkalichloriden und einem Regenerator, dass auch bei relativ tiefen Temperaturen wirkt, keine Korrosion und keine Aufschmelzungen auf den Oberflächen der behandelten Teile hervorruft und keine Schlammbildung in der Salzschmelze verursacht.It was therefore an object of the present invention to find an inert salt bath for heating steels to the austenitizing temperature, consisting of a mixture of essentially alkali and alkaline earth metal chlorides and a regenerator that also works at relatively low temperatures, no corrosion and no melting on the Surfaces of the treated parts and does not cause sludge formation in the salt melt.

Diese Aufgabe wurde erfindungsgemäss dadurch gelöst, dass dem Salzgemisch als Regenerator 0,01 bis 2 Gew.-% einer Kohlenstoff und Stickstoff enthaltenden polymeren organischen Verbindung zugesetztwird. Diese Verbindungen können dem Bad während des Betriebs oder bereits bei der Herstellung des Salzgemisches bzw. der Salze zugesetzt werden.This object was achieved according to the invention by adding 0.01 to 2% by weight of a carbon and nitrogen-containing polymeric organic compound to the salt mixture as regenerator. These compounds can be added to the bath during operation or during the preparation of the salt mixture or salts.

Besonders bewährt als Regeneratoren haben sich polymere Triazinverbindungen, polymere Cyanwasserstoffsäuren, polymere Carbonsäureamide und/oder polymerer Harnstoff. Der Polymerisationsgrad muss dabei so gewählt werden, dass die Reaktion im Bad nicht zu stürmisch abläuft. Zum Teil sind Polymerisationsgrade n > 3 bereits ausreichend, vorzugsweise liegen sie jedoch wesentlich höher.Polymeric triazine compounds, polymeric hydrocyanic acids, polymeric carboxamides and / or polymeric urea have proven particularly useful as regenerators. The degree of polymerization must be chosen so that the reaction in the bath is not too stormy. In some cases degrees of polymerization n> 3 are already sufficient, but they are preferably much higher.

Geeignete Regeneratoren sind Triaminotriazin-Formaldehyd-Kondensationsprodukte und insbesondere Melon, ein Polymerisationsprodukt des f\ /!e!amins, herstellbar durch Erwärmen von Melamin auf Temperaturen von 500°C. Bewährt haben sich jedoch auch andere stickstoffhaltige polymere organische Verbindungen, wie Cyanursäure oder Azulminsäure. Die Bäder können bei Temperaturen von 700 bis 1300°C betrieben werden.Suitable regenerators are triaminotriazine-formaldehyde condensation products and in particular melon, a polymerization product of f \ / ! E! Amine, which can be prepared by heating melamine to temperatures of 500.degree. However, other nitrogen-containing polymeric organic compounds, such as cyanuric acid or azulmic acid, have also proven successful. The baths can be operated at temperatures from 700 to 1300 ° C.

Folgende Beispiele sollen das erfindungsgemässe Salzbad näher erläutern:

  • 1. Ein Glühsalzbad mit 70% Bariumchlorid und 30% Alkalichlorid wird bei Temperaturen von 1050°C eingesetzt, um Werkzeuge aus Warmarbeitsstahl zu härten. Trotz Regenerierung mit Silizium zeigt eine Stahlfolie mit einem Kohlenstoffgehaltvon 1 %, die 20 Min bei dieser Temperatur in das Bad gehängt und dann abgeschreckt wurde, einen starken Gewichtsverlust von ca. 180 mg/dm2. Stahlwerkzeuge, die in diesem Bad behandelt wurden, zeigten insbesondere an den feinbearbeiteten Oberflächen kräftige Anfressungen, die die Weiterverarbeitung des Werkzeuges unmöglich machten. Die Werkzeuge sind Ausschuss.
  • Dem gleichen Bad wurden dann 0,05% Melon zugesetzt. Nach Beendigung der nach der Zugabe einsetzenden Reaktion zeigte eine Folie, die wie oben beschrieben behandelt wird, nur noch einen Gewichtsverlust von ca. 20 mg/dm2. Stahlwerkzeuge, die darin behandelt wurden, hatten einwandfreie Oberflächen.
  • 2. Bei einem weiteren Versuch, unter Bedingungen wie unter Beispiel 1 geschildert, wird das Glühbad von vornherein mit einer Mischung angesetzt, die ausser Alkali- und Erdalkalichloridenca. 1% Melon enthält. Die in diesem Bad behandelten Werkzeuge aus Warmarbeitsstahl waren frei von Oberflächenkorrosion.
  • 3. Ein magnesiumfluoridhaltiges Bad wird wie folgt angesetzt:
    • ca. 98,0% Bariumchlorid
    • ca. 1,0% Magnesiumfluorid
    • ca. 0,2% B203
    • 0,5% Melon
The following examples are intended to explain the salt bath according to the invention in more detail:
  • 1. An annealing salt bath with 70% barium chloride and 30% alkali chloride is used at temperatures of 1050 ° C to harden tools made of hot-work steel. Despite regeneration with silicon, a steel foil with a carbon content of 1%, which was hung in the bath for 20 min at this temperature and then quenched, shows a strong weight loss of approx. 180 mg / dm 2 . Steel tools that were treated in this bath showed strong corrosion, particularly on the finely machined surfaces, which made further processing of the tool impossible. The tools are rejects.
  • 0.05% melon was then added to the same bath. After the reaction after the addition had ended, a film which was treated as described above showed only a weight loss of approximately 20 mg / dm 2 . Steel tools that were treated in it had flawless surfaces.
  • 2. In a further experiment, under conditions as described in Example 1, the glow bath is prepared from the outset with a mixture which, apart from alkali and alkaline earth chlorides, approx. Contains 1% melon. The tools made of hot-work steel treated in this bath were free from surface corrosion.
  • 3. A bath containing magnesium fluoride is prepared as follows:
    • approx. 98.0% barium chloride
    • approx. 1.0% magnesium fluoride
    • approx. 0.2% B 2 0 3
    • 0.5% melon

In einem solchen Bad behandelte Werkzeuge aus Schnellarbeitsstahl weisen keine Abkohlung auf. Eine 20 min bei 1220°C behandelte Folie mit einem Ausgangskohlenstoffgehalt von 1,0% hat nach Abschluss dieser Behandlung immer noch einen Kohlenstoffgehalt von über 0,9%, was beweist, dass das Bad praktisch nicht abkohlt. Der Gewichtsverlust einer Folie liegt bei 80 mg/dm2, ohne Zusatz von Melon führen derartige Schmelzen zu Gewichtsverlusten von über 200 mg/dm2.Tools made from high-speed steel treated in such a bath have no decarburization. A film treated with a starting carbon content of 1.0% for 20 minutes at 1220 ° C still has a carbon content of over 0.9% after the completion of this treatment, which proves that the bath practically does not carbonize. The weight loss of a film is 80 mg / dm 2 ; without the addition of melon, such melts lead to weight losses of over 200 mg / dm 2 .

Der Versuch wird nach 50 Laufstunden des Bades wiederholt. Bei den geringen Magnesiumfluoridgehalten hätte das Bad ohne Melonzusatz stark abkohlende Wirkung gezeigt. Mit Melonzusatz verhält sich das Bad jedoch genauso inert wie bei der Inbetriebnahme.The test is repeated after 50 hours of running the bath. With the low magnesium fluoride contents, the bath would have had a strong carburizing effect without the addition of melon. With the addition of melon, however, the bath is just as inert as when it was commissioned.
