Definitions

  • the present invention is related to steel types and products made thereof, which exhibit an increase in corrosion resistance when exposed to a chlorine-rich environment. These steels are known as weathering steels.
  • JP2006118011 in the form of a steel composition comprising C, Al, Si, P, Ni, Cu, N, with Sn and/or Sb added in an amount between 0.03 and 0.5wt% and one or more of Ti, Nb, Mo, W, V, Ca or Mg, with the mass ratio of Ni/Cu smaller than or equal to 0.5.
  • the weathering capability in saline environment is mainly obtained by the presence of Sb and/or Sn, which stabilize the amount of Fe2+ ions when the steel is in a wet and saline environment, by reacting with Fe3+ ions, produced by oxidation of Fe2+.
  • Sn and/or Sb is disadvantageous for various reasons :
  • JP-A-2001 262 271 discloses a high tensile strength steel sheet excellent in adhesion of electroplating and ductility.
  • the present invention aims to provide a weathering steel with a Ni-content in the same order of magnitude as in traditional weathering steels, and with an increased corrosion resistance in marine or seaside conditions, as well as with excellent mechanical properties.
  • the invention is related to a steel product as disclosed in the appended claims.
  • the invention is in particular related to a steel product as disclosed in the main independent claim, suitable for use in outdoor environments, in particular in saline conditions.
  • the steel product of the invention may be any type of construction element such as a steel sheet or beam.
  • the invention is related to a steel composition characterized by the following contents (in wt%) :
  • the following narrower ranges are defined for Cu, Ti, Cr, Ni and Nb (in wt%) :
  • the steel product according to the invention comprises no Sn and no Sb.
  • the present invention is related to a steel product of the weathering steel type, i.e. a product exhibiting increased corrosion resistance after having been exposed to the outside environment for a given time.
  • the steel product is defined by a composition consisting of (in wt%):
  • the amounts of Cu, Ti, Cr, Ni and Nb are as follows (in wt%) :
  • the present invention reveals that the inventive steel compositions favour the formation of fine grained goethite ( ⁇ -FeOOH) in the corrosion layer forming on the surface of a steel product having these compositions, due to the specific combined Al and Si content.
  • fine grained goethite' is meant goethite with grain sizes from about 8nm to about 15nm. The formation of such fine grained goethite is beneficial for the stability of the oxide layer in saline conditions.
  • inventive compositions do not necessarily include an addition of significant amounts of Ni, regarded as beneficial for weathering resistance in saline conditions.
  • inventive compositions do not comprise Sn and Sb above an accidental impurity level.
  • the steel product of the invention comprises no Sb or Sn. Elements such as Nb, Ti, Cu, Cr are added for improving the mechanical properties of the steel.
  • the invention is related to any type of steel product having the composition as claimed, e.g. steel sheets or beams, obtained by any standard steel-making process, e.g. hot-rolled or cold-rolled sheets or beams.
  • Table 1 shows the compositions of 3 test samples S1 to S3 having Al and Si contents within the claimed invention, as well as 2 comparative samples C1 and C2 having Al and Si contents falling outside the claimed ranges and/or wherein the combined Al and Si content is less than 0.85wt%.
  • the samples are outside the subject matter of the appended claims because of the presence of Molybdenum in S1 and the lower levels of Ti, Cu, Ni, Cr and Nb. They are however illustrative of the influence of the combined presence of Al and Si on the goethite formation, and hence on the weathering steel behaviour of products of the invention.
  • test samples have been obtained by standard steel processing methods, involving at least a hot rolling step, possibly followed by a cold rolling step.
  • the samples were subjected to a dip-dry test during 60 days, using a 0.05M NaCl solution, in order to test weatherability behaviour in saline conditions.
  • oxide layers were formed on the samples.
  • the composition of these oxide layers was investigated by Mössbauer spectroscopy, used in particular to measure the relative area of superparamagnetic goethite in the oxide layer.
  • Superparamagnetic goethite has a particle size between 8 and 15nm, as opposed to antiferromagnetic goethite, having particle sizes above 15nm.
  • Table 2 clearly shows that the combined Al and Si contents according to the present invention give rise to a considerable increase in the relative area of fine-grained goethite in the oxide layer.
  • Table 1 example compositions (in wt%) Sample C Si Al P Mn S N Ti Mo Cu Ni Cr S1 0.19 0.35 1.2 0.077 1.6 0.006 0.005 0.007 0.025 0.02 0.025 0.025 S2 0.07 1 0.03 0.02 0.5 0.003 0.003 - - 0.3 - - S3 0.07 0.25 0.8 0.02 0.5 0.003 0.003 - - 0.3 - - C1 0.07 0.25 0.4 0.02 0.5 0.003 0.003 - - 0.3 - - C2 0.03 0 1 0.01 1.8 0.003 0.007 - - 0.4 - - Table 2:Relative area of superparamagnetic goethite (in %) Sample % S1 51 S2 40 S3 29 C1 15 C3 16
