Description
La présente invention concerne un acier inoxydable austénitique resulfuré à usinabilité améliorée.The present invention relates to a resulfurized austenitic stainless steel with improved machinability.
Un tel acier austénitique est connu dans le JP-A-160785. Ce brevet traite d'un acier usinable et déformable à froid et ayant, en composition pondérale, notamment, une teneur en soufre inférieure à 0,030%, des teneurs en calcium et oxygène respectivement comprises dans les intervalles 10-300 ppm et 30-300 ppm, de 0,8 à 5% de cuivre et de 0,01 à 0,25% de plomb.Such an austenitic steel is known from JP-A-160785. This patent deals with a steel which can be machined and deformed under cold conditions and which, in weight composition, in particular, has a sulfur content of less than 0.030%, calcium and oxygen contents respectively in the ranges 10-300 ppm and 30-300 ppm , from 0.8 to 5% of copper and from 0.01 to 0.25% of lead.
Dans cet acier inoxydable austénitique, on introduit de l'oxygène et du calcium, ce qui permet de transformer des inclusions dures en inclusions à base d'oxyde de calcium. L'amélioration de l'usinabilité est générée par l'introduction, dans la composition, d'une quantité variable de plomb.In this austenitic stainless steel, oxygen and calcium are introduced, which makes it possible to transform hard inclusions into inclusions based on calcium oxide. The improvement in machinability is generated by the introduction into the composition of a variable amount of lead.
Il est bien connu que les aciers inoxydables austénitiques sont dificules à usiner, en grande partie à cause de leur faible conductibilité thermique, d'où un mauvais écoulement de la chaleur produite à la pointe d'un outil de coupe et une détérioration rapide de l'outil et de leur forte écrouissabilité induisant localement des zones de dureté élevée.It is well known that austenitic stainless steels are difficult to machine, largely because of their low thermal conductivity, resulting in poor flow of the heat produced at the tip of a cutting tool and rapid deterioration of the material. 'tool and their high hardenability locally inducing areas of high hardness.
Un moyen d'améliorer l'usinabilité est l'introduction de l'élément plomb notamment dans une proportion de 0,01 à 0,25%. Cet élément à les inconvénients d'être difficile à dissoudre de façon homogène en bain fondu, et, en raison de sa densité élevée, d'avoir tendance à s'accumuler dans le fond des récipients métallurgiques. De plus il forme des phases à bas point de fusion détériorant la déformabilité à chaud.One way to improve machinability is the introduction of the lead element, in particular in a proportion of 0.01 to 0.25%. This element has the disadvantages of being difficult to dissolve homogeneously in a molten bath, and, because of its high density, of having a tendency to accumulate in the bottom of metallurgical vessels. In addition, it forms phases with a low melting point deteriorating the hot deformability.
Dans le FR-A-2.542.761 qui décrit un procédé de fabrication d'acier à haute usinabilité, il est précisé qu'une autre cause de la difficulté d'usiner les aciers inoxydables est le fait qu'ils contiennent des inclusions d'oxydes durs comme par exemple de l'alumine ou de la chromite qui détériorent les outils de coupe.In FR-A-2,542,761 which describes a process manufacturing high machinability steel, it is specified that another cause of the difficulty in machining stainless steels is the fact that they contain inclusions of hard oxides such as for example alumina or chromite which damage the cutting tools.
Un moyen de réduire la nocivité des inclusions d'oxydes durs est d'introduire dans l'acier un ou plusieurs composés alcalinoterreux, afin de remplacer dans une bonne proportion les inclusions dures par des inclusions d'oxydes à base de calcium, par exemple. Il est précisé d'une part, qu'une certaine quantité de soufre combiné à des inclusions dures en réduit la nocivité, la teneur en soufre étant généralement inférieure à 0,5 10⁻⁴ %, et d'autre part, qu'un autre moyen de réduire la nocivité des inclusions est de réduire leur quantité grâce à une bonne désoxydation et une bonne décantation du bain fondu lors de la réalisation de l'acier.One way to reduce the harmfulness of hard oxide inclusions is to introduce one or more alkaline earth compounds into the steel, in order to replace a good proportion of hard inclusions with inclusions of calcium-based oxides, for example. It is specified on the one hand, that a certain quantity of sulfur combined with hard inclusions reduces its harmfulness, the sulfur content being generally less than 0.5 10⁻⁴%, and on the other hand, that a Another way to reduce the harmfulness of inclusions is to reduce their quantity thanks to good deoxidation and good decantation of the molten bath during the production of steel.
Dans les documents mentionnés ci-dessus, l'amélioration de l'usinabilité de l'acier est réalisée :
- par introduction de plomb en tant que lubrifiant,
- par introduction d'oxygène ou de calcium pour réduire les inclusions dures en inclusions à base de composés alcalinoterreux.
- en réduisant le nombre d'inclusions dures par désoxydation du bain fondu, lors de l'élaboration.In the documents mentioned above, the machinability of the steel is improved:
- by introducing lead as a lubricant,
- by the introduction of oxygen or calcium to reduce hard inclusions to inclusions based on alkaline earth compounds.
- by reducing the number of hard inclusions by deoxidation of the molten bath, during production.
La présente invention a pour objet un acier austénitique resulfuré à unisabilité améliorée contenant d'une part, du soufre pour la création d'un sulfure de manganèse et chrome ayant des propriétés lubrifiantes et, d'autre part, une proportion déter minée d'oxygène et de calcium introduite sous forme de silicoaluminate de chaux, afin de créer, en nombre, des inclusions spécifiques améliorant l'usinabilité.The present invention relates to a resulfurized austenitic steel with improved unisability containing on the one hand, sulfur for the creation of a manganese and chromium sulfide having lubricating properties and, on the other hand, a deter mined with oxygen and calcium introduced in the form of lime silicoaluminate, in order to create, in number, specific inclusions improving machinability.

Dans une composition préférentielle de l'invention, l'acier austénitique comprend du soufre dans une proportion comprise entre 0,15 et 0,35%. Le soufre forme avec le manganèse et dans une plus faible proportion, avec le chrome, un sulfure de manganèse et chrome (Mn, Cr) S qui génère sous forme d'inclusions une lubrification à chaud de l'outil de coupe lors de l'usinage et l'acier.In a preferred composition of the invention, the austenitic steel comprises sulfur in a proportion of between 0.15 and 0.35%.

Le rôle bénéfique du soufre sur l'usinabilité est bien connu. Le soufre engendre dans l'acier des inclusions de sulfure de manganèse contenant également du chrome.The beneficial role of sulfur on machinability is well known. Sulfur generates manganese sulfide inclusions also containing chromium in the steel.
L'addition de soufre, ou encore par exemple du sélénium, permet d'améliorer l'usinabilité des aciers inoxydables austénitiques mais au détriment d'autres propriétés comme par exemple une diminution de la résistance à la corrosion et de la déformabilité à chaud et à froid.The addition of sulfur, or even, for example, selenium, makes it possible to improve the machinability of austenitic stainless steels but to the detriment of other properties such as, for example, a reduction in corrosion resistance and in hot and deformability. cold.
Malgré l'effet défavorable d'une réduction de la résistance à la corrosion engendré par le soufre, les essais sur l'usinabilité des aciers austénitiques se sont orientés vers l'introduction, dans un acier resulfuré, d'oxydes silicoaluminates de chaux. Ces oxydese ne détériorent pas la résistance à la corrosion.Despite the unfavorable effect of a reduction in the resistance to corrosion caused by sulfur, tests on the machinability of austenitic steels have been directed towards the introduction, into resulfurized steel, of lime silicoaluminate oxides. These oxides do not deteriorate the corrosion resistance.
Le oxydes silico-aluminates de chaux sont créés lors de l'élaboration de l'acier grâce à l'introduction de calcium, préférentiellement ,sous forme de fil fourré de silicocalcium, dans le bain fondu sous contrôle des teneurs en oxygène.The lime silico-aluminate oxides are created during the production of steel thanks to the introduction of calcium, preferably, in the form of a wire filled with silicocalcium, in the molten bath under control of the oxygen contents.
Selon l'invention, les oxydes sont en grande majorité liés aux sulfures et forment avec les inclusion de suflures, des inclusions associées, le sulfure se plaçant à l'intérieur des inclusions d'oxyde. Ces sulfures sont des sulfures de manganèse contenant toutefois également du chrome.According to the invention, the vast majority of the oxides are linked to the sulfides and form, with the inclusion of sulfides, associated inclusions, the sulfide being placed inside the oxide inclusions. These sulfides are manganese sulfides, however, also containing chromium.
Les oxydes silicoaluminates de chaux dans leur composition chimique sont préférentiellement de l'anorthite ou de la pseudowollastonite, (dont la composition chimique est représentée sur le diagramme ternaire de la figure 1), la majorité desdits oxydes étant de l'anorthite. Ces oxydes peuvent de plus contenir un peu de MnO.The lime silicoaluminate oxides in their chemical composition are preferably anorthite or pseudowollastonite, (the chemical composition of which is shown in the ternary diagram of FIG. 1), the majority of said oxides being anorthite. These oxides can also contain a little MnO.
Les oxydes silicoaluminates de chaux formés autour des sulfures sont des oxydes malléables, à bas point de fusion qui peuvent se déformer facilement lors du laminage. Pendant l'usinage de l'acier, du fait des températures de coupe élevées, ces inclusions jouent un rôle lubrifiant à l'interface-acier à usiner-outil de coupe, conduisant ainsi à une usure réduire des outils de coupe et à un meilleur aspect de surface des pièces usinées.The lime silicoaluminate oxides formed around the sulphides are malleable, low-melting oxides which can easily deform during rolling. During the machining of steel, due to the high cutting temperatures, these inclusions play a lubricating role at the interface-steel to be machined-cutting tool, thus leading to reduced wear of cutting tools and better surface appearance of the machined parts.
Les recherches réalisées ont permis de conduire à la définition d'une composition d'acier de haute usinabilité à partir d'une base dont la composition a été donnée ci-dessus et ayant essentiellement :
- une teneur en soufre de 0,15 à 0,35%.
- une teneur en calcium supérieure ou égale à 30 ppm sur produit fini,
- une teneur en oxygène supérieure ou égale à 70 ppm sur produit fini,
- un rapport des teneurs en élément Ca/O compris entre 0,3 et 0,5.
Il en découle :
- la présence d'inclusions oxydes de silico-aluminates de chaux préférentiellement d'anorthite (majoritaire) ou de pseudowollastonite (minoritaire) enrobant généralement des sulfures de manganèse et chrome.The research carried out led to the definition of a composition of high-machinability steel from a base whose composition was given above and having essentially:

- a calcium content greater than or equal to 30 ppm on the finished product,
- an oxygen content greater than or equal to 70 ppm on the finished product,
- a ratio of the Ca / O element contents of between 0.3 and 0.5.

De manière nette, il n'y a pas formation de sulfure de calcium, sulfure reconnu comme nocif, pour l'usinabilité des aciers et la résistance à la corrosion.Clearly, there is no formation of calcium sulfide, sulfide recognized as harmful, for the machinability of steels and corrosion resistance.
Les essais suivants illustrent de façon comparative les qualités d'usinabilité de l'acier selon l'invention.The following tests illustrate in a comparative manner the qualities of machinability of the steel according to the invention.
Des essais de tournage avec outil en carbure (de référence P20 ISO) ont été réalisés. Pour une profondeur de passe de 1,5 mm, une avance de 0,25 mm/tour, plusieurs vitesses de coupe sont fixées. Pour chaque vitesse de coupe, l'outil est démonté toutes les 4 mn pour mesure de l'usure en dépouille. Ainsi, pour plusieurs vitesses V1, V2, V3..., une courbe donnant l'usure en dépouille de l'outil en fonction du temps ce l'usinage est tracée. La vitesse de coupe, conduisant à une usure en dépouille de 0,3 mm en 30 mn, peut ainsi être déterminée pour chaque élaboration, et être prise en référence sous le critère VB30/0,3.Turning tests with a carbide tool (P20 ISO reference) were carried out. For a cutting depth of 1.5 mm, an advance of 0.25 mm / revolution, several cutting speeds are fixed. For each cutting speed, the tool is disassembled every 4 min to measure the wear and tear. Thus, for several speeds V1, V2, V3 ..., a curve giving the wear and tear of the tool as a function of time, this machining is plotted. Cutting speed, leading to a wear and tear of 0.3 mm in 30 min, can thus be determined for each production, and be taken as a reference under the criterion VB30 / 0.3.
Le tableau 1 ci-dessous donne quelques résultats obtenus sur des aciers dont la composition de base est : C : 0,05%, Si : 0,5%, Mn : 1,8%, Ni : 8,6%, Cr : 17%, Mo : 0,2%, S : 0,3%, mais dont les teneurs en calcuim et oxygène varient. De plus, pour chaque élaboration, la surface moyenne et le facteur de forme moyen (longueur/largeur) des inclusions de sulfure et des inclusions associées oxyde/sulfure sont donnés.
Les aciers N° 1 et N° 2 constituent des références et ne contiennent pas de silicoaluminate de chaux.Steels N ° 1 and N ° 2 constitute references and do not contain lime silicoaluminate.
Les inclusions associées sont très peu nombreuses, très petites et peu déformées.The associated inclusions are very few, very small and slightly deformed.
Les aciers N° 3 à 7 correspondant à une composition selon l'invention. Les valeurs de VB30/0,3, sont plus élevées d'environ 20%. La surface moyenne et le facteur de forme moyen des inclusions de sulfure des aciers N° 1 et N° 2 d'une part et des aciers N° 3 à N° 7 ne diffèrent pas significativement.Steels No. 3 to 7 corresponding to a composition according to the invention. The values of VB30 / 0.3 are higher by about 20%. The mean surface and the mean form factor of the sulfide inclusions of steels No. 1 and No. 2 on the one hand and of steels No. 3 to No. 7 do not differ significantly.
Par contre, les inclusions associées des aciers selon l'invention (N° 3 à 7) ont une surface beaucoup plus grande et sont beaucoup plus déformées donc beaucoup plus déformables.On the other hand, the associated inclusions of the steels according to the invention (Nos. 3 to 7) have a much larger surface and are much more deformed therefore much more deformable.
Ainsi, ces inclusion associées de silico-aluminates de chaux enrobant les inclusions de sulfure de manganèse et de chrome sont à l'origine de l'élévation importante de la valeur du critère d'usinabilité VB 30/0,3.Thus, these associated inclusions of lime silico-aluminates coating the inclusions of manganese sulfide and chromium are at the origin of the significant increase in the value of the
De même, des essais de tournage avec outil en carbure revêtu TiN ont été réalisés. Ces outils sont de plus en plus utilisés par les usineurs. Pour une avance de 0,25 mm/tour, une passe de 1,5 mm et une vitesse de 340 m/mn, il a été mesuré l'usure en dépouille de l'outil en fonction du temps. Le tableau II ci-dessous donne quelques valeurs obtenues sur les aciers N° 1, 4, 5 et 6 du tableau précédent.
Dans ces essais, les critères retenues pour comparer les aciers sont d'une part le temps conduisant à une usure en dépouille de 0,15 mm dans les conditions de coupe données ci-dessus et d'autre part la mesure de l'usure en dépouille après 30 mn de coupe.In these tests, the criteria used to compare the steels are on the one hand the time leading to an undercut wear of 0.15 mm under the cutting conditions given above and on the other hand the measurement of wear in skin after 30 minutes of cutting.
Ainsi, par rapport à l'acier de référence N° 1 ne correspondant pas à une composition selon l'invention, les essais réalisés sur les aciers N° 4, 5 et 6 montrent que le temps de coupe avant usure de 0,15 mm est multiplié d'un facteur 4 et que l'usure, mesurée sur l'outil après 30 mn de coupe, est réduite de 60% environ.Thus, compared with reference steel No. 1 not corresponding to a composition according to the invention, the tests carried out on steels No. 4, 5 and 6 show that the cutting time before wear of 0.15 mm is multiplied by a factor of 4 and the wear, measured on the tool after 30 minutes of cutting, is reduced by approximately 60%.
Cette amélioration est liée aux inclusions associées décrites, et introduites dans l'acier selon l'invention.This improvement is linked to the associated inclusions described, and introduced into the steel according to the invention.
La figure 3 présente un diagramme donnant les variations du critère d'usinabilité VB30/0,3 en fonction de la concentration en oxygène dans une série de mesures correspondant d'une part à l'élaboration des aciers selon l'invention et, d'autre part, à l'élaboration de l'acier sans calcium.FIG. 3 presents a diagram giving the variations of the machinability criterion VB30 / 0.3 as a function of the oxygen concentration in a series of measurements corresponding on the one hand to the production of the steels according to the invention and, on the other hand, the development of calcium-free steel.
La Figure 4 représente un diagramme donnant les variations du critère d'usinabilité VB30/0,3 en fonction de la concentration en soufre dans une série de mesures correspondant d'une part à l'élaboration selon l'invention et, d'autre part, à l'élaboration de l'acier sans calcium.FIG. 4 represents a diagram giving the variations of the machinability criterion VB30 / 0.3 as a function of the sulfur concentration in a series of measurements corresponding on the one hand to the preparation according to the invention and, on the other hand , to the development of calcium-free steel.
Les figures 3 et 4 montrent tout d'abord que l'évolution de nuances d'aciers inoxydables austénitiques resulfurés vers des teneurs en oxygène élevées ou des teneurs en soufre élevées ne permet pas d'améliorer l'usinabilité de façon significative (critère VB 30/0,3). Par contre, les aciers selon l'invention constituent une population à part, sur les diagrammes des figures 3 et 4, avec des critères d'usinabilité élevés.Figures 3 and 4 show first of all that the evolution of grades of resulfurized austenitic stainless steels towards high oxygen contents or high sulfur contents does not make it possible to improve machinability significantly (
A titre de comparaison, il a été réalisé les mêmes essais d'usinabilité en utilisant le critère d'usinabilité VB 30/0,3 sur des aciers austénitiques dont la composition de base est la suivante :
C : 0,06%, Si : 0,45%, Mn : 0,6%, Ni : 8,6%, Cr : 18%, Mo : 0.2%, S : 0.02%.By way of comparison, the same machinability tests were carried out using the
C: 0.06%, Si: 0.45%, Mn: 0.6%, Ni: 8.6%, Cr: 18%, Mo: 0.2%, S: 0.02%.
Ces aciers ne contiennent pas ou très peu de soufre comparativement à l'acier selon l'invention.These steels contain little or no sulfur compared to the steel according to the invention.
Les essais ont porté sur la variation du calcium et de l'oxygène, en utilisant le même mode opératoire d'introduction du silicoaluminate de chaux que dans l'élaboration des aciers selon l'invention.The tests focused on the variation of calcium and oxygen, using the same procedure for introducing lime silicoaluminate as in the preparation of the steels according to the invention.
Le tableau III ci-dessous donne les valeurs de VB 30/0,3 de plusieurs aciers en fonction de la teneur en calcium et oxygène et de la valeur du rapport des concentrations en élément.
Les aciers N° 8 et N° 9 ne comportent pas ou très peu de calcium et sont les aciers de références pour ces mesures. Les inclusions d'oxydes sont du type silicate polyphasé et chromite.Steels N ° 8 and N ° 9 contain little or no calcium and are the reference steels for these measurements. The oxide inclusions are of the polyphase silicate and chromite type.
L'évolution vers des teneurs en oxygène élevées seules n'entraîne pas d'amélioration de l'usinabilité (comparaison des valeurs de VB 30/0,3 entre les aciers N° 8 et 9).The evolution towards high oxygen contents alone does not lead to an improvement in the machinability (comparison of the values of
Les aciers n° 10 et N° 11 ayant :
- une teneur en calcium supérieure à 30 ppm sur produit fini,
- une teneur en oxygène supérieure à 70 ppm sur produit fini,
- un rapport des teneurs en élément Ca/O compris entre 0,30 et 0,50 ont seulement des inclusions d'oxydes de type anorthite. On remarque, à l'usinage, une augmentation des valeurs du critère d'usinabilité VB 30/0,3 comme représentée en exemple sur la figure 5.Steels No. 10 and No. 11 having:
- a calcium content greater than 30 ppm on the finished product,
- an oxygen content greater than 70 ppm on the finished product,
- A ratio of the Ca / O element contents of between 0.30 and 0.50 have only inclusions of oxides of the anorthite type. Note, during machining, an increase in the values of the
L'acier N° 12 a des teneurs en calcium et oxygène faibles et un rapport Ca/O très élevé. L'usinabilité reste médiocre. Les inclusions analysées chimiquement sont de type gehlenite (Figure 1).Steel No. 12 has low calcium and oxygen contents and a very high Ca / O ratio. Machinability remains poor. The inclusions analyzed chemically are of the gehlenite type (Figure 1).
L'acier N° 13 a une teneur en oxygène correspondant à celle de la composition de l'acier selon l'invention sans soufre mais une teneur en calcium et un rapport Ca/O plus faible. L'usinabilité n'est pas améliorée significativement.Steel No. 13 has an oxygen content corresponding to that of the composition of the steel according to the invention without sulfur but a calcium content and a lower Ca / O ratio. The machinability is not significantly improved.
L'acier N° 14 a des teneurs correspondant à celles de la composition de l'acier selon l'invention sans soufre, mais un rapport Ca/O en dessous de 0,30. L'amélioration de l'usinabilité est sensible mais reste très en-dessous de celle des aciers N° 10 et N° 11.Steel No. 14 has contents corresponding to those of the composition of the steel according to the invention without sulfur, but a Ca / O ratio below 0.30. The improvement in machinability is appreciable but remains far below that of steels N ° 10 and N ° 11.
La comparaison des valeurs VB 30/0,3 des tableaux I et III montre l'importance de l'effet des inclusions d'anorthite seules et de l'effet des inclusions contenues dans l'acier resulfuré selon l'invention.The comparison of the
La présente invention a pour objet un acier inoxydable austénitique resulfuré dont l'usinabilité est améliorée grâce à la création d'inclusions associées oxydes de type silico-aluminate de chaux/sulfure (Mn, Cr)S.The subject of the present invention is a resulfurized austenitic stainless steel, the machinability of which is improved thanks to the creation of associated inclusions of oxides of lime silico-aluminate / sulfide (Mn, Cr) S type.

Ces résultats entraînent la présence d'inclusions associées et déformées d'oxydes enrobant des inclusions de sulfure. Les oxydes sont des silico-aluminates de chaux, préférentiellement de type anorthite et pseudowollastonite dont les compositions chimiques sont déterminées dans le diagramme ternaire CaO-SiO2-Al203 de la figure 1. Ces inclusions associées ont une surface et un facteur de forme (longueur/largeur) importants. La déformabilité élevée des inclusions et leur effet lubrifant à l'interface outil de coupe/copeau permettant une amélioration de l'usinabilité.These results lead to the presence of associated and deformed inclusions of oxides coating sulfide inclusions. The oxides are lime silico-aluminates, preferably of the anorthite and pseudowollastonite type, the chemical compositions of which are determined in the ternary diagram CaO-SiO2-Al203 in FIG. 1. These associated inclusions have a surface and a form factor (length / width) important. The high deformability of the inclusions and their lubricating effect at the cutting tool / chip interface allowing improved machinability.
