Definitions
- the invention relates to aluminized sheets.
- a metallic coating based on aluminum on a sheet is a commonly used means of protecting a steel sheet against corrosion, in particular in the case where the temperature of use of this sheet exceeds about 400 ° C.
- the thickness of the metal coating in question is generally between 5 and 100 ⁇ m.
- the slats are in the form of needles, it is therefore difficult to distinguish, in practice, needles and coverslips.
- the internal layer of alloy having a fragile behavior one seeks generally to limit its thickness.
- Silicon is the most commonly used alloying inhibitor; to be effective, its weight concentration must generally be greater than 6% in the soaking bath.
- Certain aluminized sheets can then be subjected to heat treatments, either to modify their properties, or even normal use (example: thermal screens); so it is important not to not significantly increase the thickness of the internal alloy layer.
- the inner layer can be subdivided into several sublayers comprising still other phases; at the interface between inner layer 1 and steel 2, we can sometimes find an underlay comprising the phases following: a phase called ⁇ (Fe2Al5), a phase called ⁇ (FeAl3), one or several phases based on aluminum nitride; the thickness of this underlay generally does not exceed 1 ⁇ m.
- This outer layer may also include alloying phases to based on aluminum, silicon and iron, in particular of eutectic composition with low melting point.
- the ⁇ 5 phase has a hexagonal structure; it is sometimes called ⁇ H or H; the iron content of this phase is generally between 29 and 36% by weight; the silicon content of this phase is generally between 6 and 12% by weight; the balance consists mainly of aluminum.
- the ⁇ 6 phase has a monoclinic structure; it is sometimes called ⁇ or M; the iron content of this phase is generally between 26 and 29% in weight ; the silicon content of this phase is generally between 13 and 16% by weight; the balance consists mainly of aluminum.
- Table I summarizes the possible composition and the temperature of fusion of the phases present in the coatings obtained after soaked in an aluminizing bath (the composition and temperature of fusion are specified in this same table).
- phase inclusions ⁇ 6 have an elongated shape whereas the inclusions of phase ⁇ 5 generally have a globular shape.
- composition of the coating phases Composition: % by mass HAVE Yes Fe Fusion temperature Bath ⁇ 91 > 6 3 (saturation) 675 ° C (T ° C hardened) eutectic 87 12.2 0.8 ⁇ 577 ° C Dendrites Al ⁇ 98 ⁇ 1.5 ⁇ 0,5 ⁇ 660 ° C Slats Si Majority silicon 1412 ° C ⁇ 6 needles 55 14 31 > 577 ° C Phase ⁇ 5 55 to 62 6 to 12 31 to 36 > 577 ° C
- the object of the invention is to offer a sheet with a coating based on of aluminum is more resistant to cracking by deformation, i.e. a sheet which is more resistant to corrosion after shaping.
- nitride at the interface or free nitrogen in the steel blocks or limits the growth of the thickness of the internal layer of alloy.
- the duration of heat treatment, in the phase where said temperature is higher than 570 ° C, is less than or equal to 15 seconds.
- the steel grade In a manner known per se, the steel grade, the conditions for applying the coating and the composition of the bath, in particular the content of alloying inhibitor, so that the thickness of the inner layer 1 alloy does not exceed that of the outer layer 3.
- silicon is introduced as alloying inhibitor in the bath, with a content greater than or equal to 6% in weight; preferably, the silicon content is greater than or equal to 8%.
- the annealing step can be performed under an atmosphere containing ammonia.
- the outer layer 3 comprises, in addition to the dendrites based aluminum, other phases 4 in the form of needles or elongated lamellae distributed in the thickness of this layer between the dendrites.
- This projection p is shown in FIG. 1 in the particular case any strip, the strip referenced 5.
- the treatment time is less than 15 seconds from so as to limit and / or prevent the increase in layer thickness internal alloy.
- the heat treatment according to the invention has has the effect of significantly reducing the proportion of needles and strips in this outer layer.
- the aluminum coating is applied so as to the thickness of said internal alloy layer is less than or equal to 5 ⁇ m and the heat treatment according to the invention is carried out so that the thickness of said internal alloy layer remains less than or equal to 5 ⁇ m.
- the minimum temperature of the treatment according to the invention corresponds to the melting temperature of the phase of the outer layer corresponding to the Al-Si-Fe eutectic composition.
- the maximum temperature of the treatment according to the invention corresponds to the melting temperature of the aluminum dendrites of the outer layer.
- This heat treatment can be carried out in air, even if the coating oxidizes slightly on the surface.
- the aluminized sheet according to the invention therefore resists corrosion better after shaping, in the sense that the coating better protects the steel.
- the structure of the coating of the aluminized sheet according to the invention is shown schematically in Figure 2 and shown in Figure 6; the general structure remains the same: on steel 2, an internal layer 7 of alloy and a layer external 8 mainly composed of aluminum.
- the treatment according to the invention generates a structural rearrangement of the layer external leading to the disappearance and / or partition of the lamellae or needles of this layer.
- the heat treatment according to the invention would therefore have the technical effect first to rearrange the structure of the outer layer so as to obtain a structure opposing the propagation of cracks.
- the heat treatment according to the invention must also be adapted for prevent or limit the increase in thickness of the inner layer 7 of alloy, because this layer is particularly fragile.
- the conditions of the heat treatment according to the invention can therefore be optimized in a manner known per se between these two compromises : sufficient rearrangement of the outer layer and slight increase in the thickness of the internal layer of alloy.
- the heat treatment according to the invention is of short duration, which is an important advantage compared to long-term annealing treatments and at a lower temperature.
- This heat treatment can therefore advantageously be carried out in line on conventional dip coating installations.
- this heat treatment is applied so as to heat the outer layer more than the inner alloy layer.
- the heat treatment according to the invention can also improve appreciably the surface reflectivity of the sheet, in particular in the field wavelengths between 1.5 and 5 ⁇ m; we get this advantage additional especially when performing heat treatment under non-oxidizing atmosphere.
- the treatment according to the invention is not limited to a surface gloss treatment; indeed some effective brightening treatments cause significant increase of the thickness of the internal layer of alloy, which is contrary to the invention described here.
- a steel grade containing a content greater than or equal to 10 -2 % by weight of nitrogen is used. free.
- AlN aluminum nitrides
- the aluminized steel sheet according to the invention has the following analysis (element contents expressed in thousandths of% by weight): Composition of the steel of Example 1 Element VS mn P S Yes al Or Cr Cu NOT 10 -3 % 53 300 10 15 6 22 20 20 7 11
- the other elements are in the state of traces; the titanium content is less than 10 -3 %.
- a significant part of the nitrogen contained in this steel is said to be "free", the other part being essentially combined with aluminum in the form of aluminum nitride (AIN); the AIN content having been evaluated at approximately 1.4 10 -3 % by weight of “nitrogen” equivalent, it is deduced therefrom that the content of free nitrogen is of the order of 10 -2 % by weight in this steel.
- AIN aluminum nitride
- a coating based on both sides of this sheet is applied aluminum with a total thickness of approximately 15 ⁇ m; this coating is applied as previously described by soaking in an aluminum bath containing silicon.
- the average silicon content in the coating is 7% about.
- this treatment consists in heating the sheet at the speed of 4 ° C / s up to a temperature of 578 ° C, and, as soon as this temperature is reached, blowing with nitrogen to obtain a speed of cooling between 10 and 15 ° C / s.
- the schematic device is used in FIG. 4: it is a vertical oven 13 comprising two series of electrical resistors 14; the sample to be treated 15, made of aluminized sheet, is suspended from a support rod 16; to measure the temperature of heat treatment, a thermocouple 17, type K (chromel-alumel) is used, 0.2 mm in diameter and class 1 ( ⁇ T ° C x 0.004, i.e. ⁇ 2.4 ° C at 600 ° C); this thermocouple 17 is welded to the face coated with the aluminized sheet.
- a thermocouple 17 type K (chromel-alumel) is used, 0.2 mm in diameter and class 1 ( ⁇ T ° C x 0.004, i.e. ⁇ 2.4 ° C at 600 ° C); this thermocouple 17 is welded to the face coated with the aluminized sheet.
- the coating according to the invention is very resistant better cracking than the coating according to the prior art which has not undergone heat treatment.
