Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a grain-oriented, intended for electrical applications electrical tape or sheet.
  • Such electrical tapes or sheets are characterized by a particularly sharp ⁇ 110 ⁇ ⁇ 001> texture, which has a slight magnetization direction parallel to the rolling direction.
  • Such a texture is called after their discoverer also "Goss texture”.
  • Goss texture occurs via a selective anomalous grain growth, which is also called secondary recrystallization.
  • secondary recrystallization the natural tendency of a metallic matrix to increase grain size is suppressed by the presence of grain growth inhibitors, which in technical language are also called “inhibitors” or “inhibitor phase” for short.
  • the inhibitor phase consists of very fine and homogeneously distributed particles of one or more foreign phases.
  • the particles in question already have a natural one at their interface with the matrix Interfacial energy. This obstructs a grain boundary moving across it, because the further savings in interfacial energy in the overall system are greatly reduced.
  • the inhibitor phase therefore has a central importance for the formation of the Goss texture and, consequently, for the magnetic properties of the respective material. Of importance here is the homogeneous distribution of very many very small particles. Because the number of excreted particles is not revealed experimentally, their size gives information about their effect. Thus, it is believed that the particles of the inhibitor phase should not be significantly larger than 100 nm on average.
  • the grain growth inhibitory effect of the MnS phase is so limited that, starting from the usual Hot strip thicknesses of z. B. 2.30 mm at least two-stage cold rolling to the thickness of the tape is necessary and between the individual cold rolling a recrystallizing intermediate annealing must be carried out to obtain the desired properties.
  • the material inhibited by MnS in the course of this treatment only reaches a limited texture sharpness, in which the Goss layer scatters on average by 7 ° around the ideal position. This texture sharpness is reflected in a comparably low magnetic polarization J 800 at a field strength of 800 A / m, which is rarely able to exceed values above 1.87 T.
  • the commercial name for such procured material is "Conventional Grain Oriented", in short "CGO".
  • a nitriding treatment, as required in the methods of an acquired inhibition method is, if it is carried out in a completed annealing annealing furnace, technically complex, costly and often very difficult to control because of the very precise surface reactions to be controlled.
  • Other nitration treatments using nitrogen-donating adhesive additives have only limited effectiveness.
  • the hot-rolled strip thickness is preferably selected so that the subsequent cold-rolling process only has to be carried out in one stage in order to achieve the required final thickness of the cold-rolled strip material obtained.
  • degree of deformation of this cold rolling depends on the respective adjustable in various ways inhibitor effect.
  • the object of the invention was to provide a method which allows using the GWA process cost-effective and with reduced operating costs grain-oriented electrical tapes or to produce sheets whose magnetic properties at least correspond to the properties of CGO material.
  • the invention proposes a method whose operations are carried out in accordance with claim 1.
  • the invention is based on a grain-oriented electrical steel strip or sheet known per se base alloy system, in addition to iron and unavoidable impurities an Si content of 2 - 6.5 Wt .-%, typically by 3.2 wt .-%, and had to adjust the special features of According to the invention produced electrical tape or sheet contained further alloying elements.
  • alloying elements were carbon, sulfur, nitrogen, copper, manganese, aluminum and chromium.
  • Thermodynamic model calculations were performed on this multi-component alloy system.
  • Silicon in electrical tapes or sheets causes an increase in the specific resistance and thus a reduction in the re-magnetization loss.
  • levels below 2% by weight the properties required for use as a grain oriented electrical steel are no longer achieved.
  • Optimal processing properties result when the Si contents are in the range of 2.5-4 wt.%.
  • Si contents of more than 4% by weight some brittleness of the steel strip occurs, but at Si contents of up to 6.5% by weight, the noise-causing magnetostriction is minimized. Even higher Si contents appear to be too strong However, lowering the saturation polarization does not make sense.
  • a particularly important component of the process according to the invention is that it uses sulfides which are eliminated during hot working as inhibitors. Only by the nucleation sites existing there during the transformation can a uniform finely dispersed inhibitor particle distribution be set, as is necessary for effective grain growth inhibition, ie the formation of irregularly sized grains, and thus good magnetic properties.
  • AlN particles formed during hot working are not suitable as a useful inhibitor in both ferrite and austenite because precipitates would always occur in both the ferrite and austenite prior to the onset of hot working very few and very coarse particles would lead to the unfavorable properties of the resulting electrical tape or sheet would entail.
  • the content of acid-soluble Al in the steel processed according to the invention may be up to 0.08% by weight, with acid-soluble Al contents of 0.025-0.040% by weight having been proven in practice.
  • the N content should be kept as low as possible and not exceed 30 ppm. Nitrogen binds with Al to AlN. In order for sufficient free Al to remain available for optional nitriding treatment, in the case of the present invention, in the case of the effective presence of Al for the ratio% N /% Al of the N content% N to the Al content% Al:% N /% Al ⁇ 0.25.
  • the inventive method is completely unaffected by the presence of aluminum.
  • the nitrogen content of the melt analysis is kept low, typically below 30 ppm, pure Al is present in the primary recrystallized and decarburized cold rolled strip to finished strip thickness.
  • This cold-rolled strip can then be subjected to a nitriding treatment during the decarburization annealing or thereafter, thereby forming AlN particles in the ribbon which act as an additional inhibiting phase, so that a higher Goss texture sharpness can be formed, which can produce magnetic properties similar to those of conventional HGO material are common.
  • MnS is also unsuitable as an inhibitor for the process according to the invention, since the solubility temperature is so high that MnS separates clearly before hot rolling, ie already during reheating of the respectively processed thin slab or on its way to the hot rolling device used for hot rolling , In addition, because of the strong affinity of manganese for sulfur at higher Mn contents, the sulfur content deliberately provided for in the steel would almost completely set. Accordingly, the use of MnS as an inhibitor would hardly provide any free sulfur for the formation of copper sulfides during hot working.
  • the Mn content is limited to up to 0.1% by weight and at the same time in the case of the presence of Mn for the ratio% Mn /% S of the Mn content% Mn to S Salary% S given the condition:% Mn /% S ⁇ 2.5.
  • the invention uses CuS as an inhibitor.
  • copper sulfides in the dynamic case in principle, have such low solubility temperatures that they are present in the chemical compositions customary today only excrete at temperatures at which in the conventional production of grain-oriented electrical steel strip or sheet, the coiling of the hot strip.
  • the desired goal of a targeted finely dispersed inhibitor excretion is missed.
  • the solubility temperature for copper sulfides has been raised by alloying measures so that their precipitation can take place during hot forming.
  • the Mn content is lowered as far as possible.
  • the aim is to achieve the range of inefficiency, which is why the Mn range to a maximum of 0.1 wt .-%, in particular max. 0.05 wt .-%, is limited.
  • the sulfur content was increased to 0.01 wt .-% and thus so far that the mass ratio% Mn /% S each ⁇ 2.5, in particular ⁇ 2 compared with typical grain-oriented electrical steel. This ensures that sufficient free sulfur is always available for the formation of copper sulphides.
  • the solubility and thus also the precipitation temperature could be increased by more than 50 ° C in the steel processed according to the invention. If we are talking about "copper sulfides", then by the way, that means the whole group CuxSy compounds, too if they can have very different proportions.
  • a steel processed according to the invention comprises not less than 0.1% by weight of Cu. At the top, the Cu content is limited to 0.5% by weight in order to avoid deterioration of the surface finish of the grain-oriented electrical sheet or strip produced according to the invention.
  • the S content of the steel according to the invention is at most 0.100% by weight.
  • a slab heating temperature of up to 1200 ° C. and times between casting and solidification, homogenization annealing and hot rolling are required, which are available today Casting machines can be realized.
  • the hot rolling pass plan used in the method according to the invention is also adapted such that the temperature of the rolling stock is below the precipitation temperature for copper sulfide over as many hot-forming passes as possible.
  • the composite according to the invention in the course of the steel inventive method in a conventional manner to 35 - 100 mm, in particular max. 80 mm thick thin slabs processed. This is usually done by conventional continuous casting.
  • the simultaneously low Mn content and the concomitant formation of FeS should be selected when pouring the melt according to the invention to the strand from which then the invention processed thin slabs are divided, the casting speed comparatively low to the Danger of strand breakthroughs to be avoided.
  • the casting speed during casting can be limited to a maximum of 4.6 m / min.
  • the overheating of the melt in the tundish is preferably 3 to 50 K.
  • a sufficient amount of casting powder is melted on the bath level in order to ensure the required amounts of slag for the film formation between the mold and the strand shell.
  • pouring can be enabled by using a casting powder that is modified to have an increased reflow rate compared to high superheat casting. This can be achieved by adjusting the amount and type of carbon carriers and increasing the flux content of the casting powder.
  • the advantage of very low superheat casting is fast Strand growth in the mold and a significant refinement of the solidification structure.
  • the parameters of the post-casting heat treatment and the hot rolling of the thin slabs are particularly adjusted to avoid problems that might otherwise be caused by the formation of liquid FeS (iron sulfide).
