Definitions

  • the invention relates to a casting made of a hardenable copper alloy.
  • Another disadvantage of the proven mold material CuCrZr is the relatively low hardness of about 110 HBW to 130 HBW. In a one- or two-roller continuous casting process, however, it is unavoidable that steel splashes reach the roll surfaces even before the pouring area. The solidified steel particles are then forced into the relatively soft surfaces of the casting rolls, thereby significantly affecting the surface quality of the cast strips of about 1.5 mm to 4 mm thickness.
  • the lower electrical conductivity of a known CuNiBe alloy with an addition of up to 1% niobium leads to a higher surface temperature compared to a CuCrZr alloy. Since the electrical conductivity is approximately proportional to the thermal conductivity, the surface temperature in the shell of a casting roll of the CuNiBe alloy is compared to a casting roll with a jacket of CuCrZr with a maximum temperature of 400 ° C at the surface and 30 ° C. increase the back to about 540 ° C.
  • ternary CuNiBe- or CuCoBe alloys generally have a Brinell hardness of over 200 HBW, but reaches the electrical conductivity of the standard semi-finished products made from these materials, such as rods for the production of resistance welding electrodes or sheets and strips for the production of springs or Leadframes, possibly in the range of 26 Sm / mm 2 to about 32 Sm / mm 2 values. Under optimum conditions, only a surface temperature on the shell of a casting roll of about 585 ° C would be achieved with these standard materials.
  • DE 31 20 978 A describes a curable copper alloy for continuous casting molds, consisting essentially of in% by weight 0.2% - 2.0% nickel, 0.05% - 0.5% beryllium, 0.01% 1.0% niobium, remainder substantially copper, which alloy is said to have high strength, high thermal conductivity and high heat resistance, substantially as a result of heat treatment including solution heat treatment and aging treatment.
  • EP 0 548 636 B1 also includes the prior art, the use of a curable copper alloy of 1.0% to 2.6% nickel, which may be wholly or partially replaced by cobalt, 0.1% to 0.45% Beryllium, optionally 0.05% to 0.25% zirconium and optionally up to a maximum of 0.15% of at least one element of the niobium, tantalum, vanadium, titanium, chromium, cerium and hafnium group, balance copper including manufacturing impurities and more common Processing additives with a Brinell hardness of at least 200 HBW and an electrical conductivity above 38 Sm / mm 2 as a material for the production of casting rolls and casting wheels.
  • Alloys with these compositions have disadvantages in the hot workability due to the relatively high alloy element content.
  • high degrees of hot working are required to achieve, starting from the coarse-grained cast structure with several millimeters of grain size, a finer-grained product with a grain size ⁇ 1.5 mm (according to ASTM E 112).
  • ASTM E 112 ASTM E 112
  • for large-scale casting rolls are so far only with great effort sufficiently large cast blocks with sufficient quality to produce;
  • technical forming facilities are hardly available in order to realize a sufficiently high amount of hot kneading for recrystallization of the cast structure into a fine microstructure with a justifiable expense.
  • the invention is - based on the prior art - the object of the invention to provide a mold made of a hardenable copper alloy, which is insensitive even at high casting speeds against changing temperature stresses and has a high fatigue resistance at the working temperature.
  • the casting mold is produced by casting, hot working, solution annealing at 850 ° C to 980 ° C, cold working up to 30%, and curing at 400-550 ° C over a period of 4-32 hours, with a maximum mean grain size of 1.5 mm according to ASTM E 112, has a hardness of at least 170 HBW and an electrical conductivity of at least 26 Sm / mm 2 .
  • the mold has in the cured state of the copper alloy a mean grain size of 30 microns to 500 microns to ASTME 112, a hardness of at least 185 HBW, a conductivity between 30 and 36 Sm / mm 2 , a 0.2% proof strength of at least 450 MPa and an elongation at break of at least 12%.
  • the casting mold according to the invention makes it possible to increase the casting speed by more than twice the conventional casting speed. In addition, a significantly improved surface quality of the cast strip is achieved. Also, a significantly longer life of the mold is guaranteed.
  • Casting molds should not only include stationary casting molds, e.g. Plates or tubes, but also co-moving molds, such as casting rolls are understood.
  • a further improvement of the mechanical properties of the casting mold, in particular an increase in the tensile strength, can advantageously be achieved according to claim 2, in that the copper alloy contains 0.03% to 0.35% zirconium and 0.005% to 0.05% magnesium.
  • the copper alloy contains ⁇ 1.0% cobalt, 0.15% to 0.3% beryllium and 0.15% to 0.3% zirconium.
  • the ratio of cobalt to beryllium is between 2 and 15.
  • this ratio of cobalt to beryllium from 2.2 to 5.
  • the copper alloy contains at most 0.15% of at least one element of the group comprising niobium, manganese, tantalum, vanadium, titanium, chromium, cerium and hafnium.
  • casting molds are considered to be particularly advantageous in the form of casting rolls of a two-roll casting plant with shells made of the copper alloy provided according to the invention, which are subjected to alternating temperature stress under high rolling pressures when strips of non-ferrous metals, in particular of aluminum or aluminum alloys, are cast close to the final dimensions.
  • each jacket can be provided with a coating which reduces the heat permeability.
  • the coating is effected specifically due to the performance of the jacket of a copper alloy in particular an aluminum strip characterized in that at the beginning of a Abg discern- and rolling process from the interaction of copper with aluminum on the surface of the shell forms an adhesion layer from which then in the further course of the casting process aluminum penetrate into the copper surface and form there a stable resistant diffusion layer whose thickness and property are substantially determined by casting speed and cooling conditions.
  • the alloys were then subjected to at least 30 minutes solution annealing above 850 ° C with subsequent water quenching and then cured for 4 to 32 hours in the temperature range between 400 ° C and 550 ° C.
  • Table 2 alloy Rm Mpa Rp 0.2 Mpa A% HB 2.5 187.5 el.
  • the alloys according to the invention in particular for producing a shell of a casting roll, achieve the desired recrystallized fine-grain structure with a correspondingly good elongation at break.
  • a particle size of more than 1.5 mm is present, which reduces the plasticity of the material.
  • the alloys A to G according to the invention again exhibit good elongations at break and a grain size of less than 0.5 mm, while the comparison alloys H to J have a coarse grain with a grain size of more than 1.5 mm and lower elongation at break values.
  • these copper alloys have clear processing advantages in the production of jackets, especially for larger casting rolls of two-roll casting plants, making it possible to produce a fine-grained end product with optimum basic properties for the field of application.
