Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the treatment of metals and alloys, more particularly but not exclusively of ferrous metals and alloys, in particular those having a high melting point, for example greater than 1000 ° C.
  • a refining aid is incorporated into the molten metal.
  • these additives have an important role in reducing the oxygen content.
  • the steelmaker perfectly controls the flowability of the metal, through the calibrated pouring orifices.
  • the adjuvant also makes it possible to adjust the level of elements such as sulfur, phosphorus under certain conditions of use. A favorable action on the number and morphology of inclusions is obtained. This is particularly the case for inclusions of alumina in processes where the steel has been quenched with aluminum.
  • the addition of calcium inside the liquid mass can be carried out using methods of introducing additives in the form of powder or granules.
  • the presentation EP-A-0 030 043 which insists on the importance of having a particle size as homogeneous as possible.
  • the alloy is in the form of granules and can be binary, ternary or multi-component.
  • the second metallic element is chosen from aluminum, copper, nickel, bismuth, lead, tin, lanthanum and silicon, as well as zinc or magnesium alloys.
  • the refining aid is an alloy in the form of granules, each granule having a substantially spherical shape.
  • the alloy consists of one or more metals preferably chosen from beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and zinc and one or more metallic elements whose composition is located in an area of the diagram phases starting from group IIA metal or pure zinc towards the first eutectic point.
  • first eutectic zone we will speak of "first eutectic zone" since it corresponds to the lowering of the melting point in the direction of a binary or multi-component eutectic. It is therefore an alloy located in the eutectic zone, including the eutectic itself, which will be the refining alloy.
  • alloys of calcium or magnesium with aluminum, copper or nickel As binary alloys, let us advantageously mention the alloys of calcium or magnesium with aluminum, copper or nickel. As ternary alloys, mention will be made, for example, of calcium, nickel, aluminum and calcium, magnesium, aluminum alloys.
  • thermodynamic level or can start from the equation expressing as a first approximation the activity coefficient of an element with high dilution in a solvent, in this case y AT (AT for alkaline- earthy or zinc).
  • the vapor pressure of the metal of group IIA chosen (or of zinc) taken separately is as low as possible; the metals chosen for the alloy form defined compounds with free enthalpy of very negative formation with which at eutectic temperature the eutectic alloy is in equilibrium.
  • the addition of the alloy into granules is done by conventional techniques of deep introduction at the level of the molten metal bath, the granules being substantially spherical, calibrated, constant and homogeneous. Their micro-structure is closed and their diameter is between 0.1 and 2.5 mm, preferably between 0.2 and 2.5 mm. This finely divided form is free from fine particle size dust; this gives the product complete safety in use; thus any danger of explosion or self-ignition due to the pyrophoricity of the reactive alloys is eliminated.
  • the invention also provides major advantages in the production of these granulated alloys. Indeed, in the case of their granulation in the liquid phase, it is possible to work at a lower temperature and to make serious energy savings.
  • the range of steels which benefit from being refined according to the invention using granules of alloys of metals of group IIA and the abovementioned metals are in particular steels with a very low content of residual elements such as carbon and silicon , for example the range of steels for deep drawing.
  • the adjuvant granules are also very suitable for refining other ranges of steels such as stainless steels.
  • non-ferrous metal metals and aluminum can be refined, for example by granules of strontium and aluminum alloys, optionally comprising lithium.
  • the calcium alloy with nickel can contain up to 16 atomic% of nickel, ie approximately 20% by weight.
  • the calcium melts around 850 ° C. and forms with nickel an eutectic alloy melting at approximately 605 ° C., corresponding precisely to the 16 atomic% mentioned. above.
  • the eutectic zone is therefore the zone located on the left of the diagram and extending up to 16 atomic% of nickel alloyed with calcium, including the eutectic itself.
  • compositions of between 5% (fusion around 800 ° C.) and 16 atomic% of nickel are chosen.
  • the Ca / Ni alloy can be added to the steel at a rate of 150 ppm per minute, an addition rate that cannot be kept with pure calcium.
  • the steel obtained appears, on analysis, to have the following composition:
  • the ternary Ca / Mg / AI alloy of Example 6 is used in particular for the treatment of lead, owing to its low melting point and to an increased dissolution rate. It is found that this alloy is of great interest for the debismutage of lead.
  • the Ca / Cu alloy of Example 7 can be used for the treatment of bronze, given its low melting point and the reduced bubbling it causes.
  • the Ca / La alloy of Example 8 can be used for the treatment of steels and cast irons, where, in addition to the reduced bubbling which it causes, it allows very good desulphurization and very fine control of the graphitization.
  • the Mg / Ni alloy of Example 9 can be used for the treatment of stainless steels, its melting point being particularly low. It causes reduced boiling, just like the Ca / Ni alloys of Examples 1 to 3.
