Description

[Technical Field]

The present disclosure relates to a low-Cr ferritic stainless steel, and more particularly, to a low-Cr ferritic stainless steel capable of securing formability while having excellent high-temperature strength and high-temperature oxidation resistance, and a manufacturing method thereof.

[Background Art]

A ferritic stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance while adding less expensive alloying elements, and has high price competitiveness compared to austenitic stainless steels. In particular, 9∼14% of low-Cr ferritic stainless steel has superior cost competitiveness, and is used in exhaust system parts (Muffler, Ex-manifold, Collector cone, etc.) corresponding to the exhaust gas temperature range of room temperature to 800°C.
However, the high-temperature strength and high-temperature oxidation resistance were inferior to those of high-Cr and Nb-added steels, so there was a limit to the expansion of use. Increasing the Cr content or adding Nb to improve the high-temperature strength and high-temperature oxidation resistance causes the manufacturing cost to rise. Therefore, there is a need for development that can improve high temperature properties without adding Nb to low-Cr ferritic stainless steel.

[Modes of the Invention]

Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are provided to transfer the technical concepts of the present disclosure to one of ordinary skill in the art. However, the present disclosure is not limited to these embodiments, and may be embodied in another form. In the drawings, parts that are irrelevant to the descriptions may be not shown in order to clarify the present disclosure, and also, for easy understanding, the sizes of components are more or less exaggeratedly shown.
Also, when a part "includes" or "comprises" an element, unless there is a particular description contrary thereto, the part may further include other elements, not excluding the other elements.
An expression used in the singular encompasses the expression of the plural, unless it has a clearly different meaning in the context.
As a result of conducting various studies to improve the high-temperature strength and high-temperature oxidation resistance of low-cost low-Cr ferritic stainless steel, the inventors were able to obtain the following knowledge.
In general, Nb is added to ferritic stainless steel for exhaust systems for high-temperature strength. Since Nb is relatively expensive in raw material costs and causes an increase in manufacturing cost, the addition of niobium is not a desirable development direction. It is widely known that substitutional solid solution strengthening elements are effective to increase high-temperature strength. In particular, when a substitutional solid solution strengthening element is added, the greater the difference in weight and atomic radius compared to Fe and Cr, the greater the solid solution strengthening effect. In the periodic table of the elements, alloying elements such as Si, Cu, Sn, etc. are far from Fe and Cr, and there are differences in weight and atomic radius. Therefore, it was determined that it could replace the existing Nb, and component optimization was performed to increase the high-temperature strength.
Meanwhile, the Cr content is generally increased for high-temperature oxidation resistance. However, since Cr also has a high raw material cost and causes an increase in manufacturing cost, increasing the content of chromium is not a desirable development direction. For high-temperature oxidation resistance, when exposed to high temperatures for a long time, certain elements are densely concentrated on the surface to suppress the formation of the Fe-oxide film. In the present disclosure, Si, Cu, and Sn were selected as candidates as elements that can be concentrated on the surface, and component optimization was performed for high-temperature oxidation resistance.
Including the above, the present disclosure must satisfy the component system conditions and formulas as follows.
A low-Cr ferritic stainless steel with excellent formability and high temperature properties according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes, in percent (%) by weight of the entire composition, C: 0.005 to 0.015%, N: 0.005 to 0.015%, Si: 0.5 to 1.5%, Mn: 0.1 to 0.5%, Cr: 9 to 14%, Ti: 0.1 to 0.3%, Cu: 0.3 to 0.8%, Al : 0.01 to 0.05%, Sn: 0.005 to 0.15%, the remainder of iron (Fe) and other inevitable impurities.
Hereinafter, the reason for the numerical limitation of the content of the alloy component element in the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. Hereinafter, unless otherwise specified, the unit is % by weight.
The content of C is 0.005 to 0.015%.
When the C content exceeds 0.015%, it combines with Cr to form Cr₂₃C₆ precipitates, which decreases high-temperature oxidation resistance due to local Cr depletion in the matrix. In addition, in order to control the C content to less than 0.005%, the VOD process cost for steelmaking increases, which is not preferable. Therefore, the content of C is limited to the range of 0.005 to 0.015%.
The content of N is 0.005 to 0.015%.
When N in the steel exceeds 0.015%, the concentration of solid solution N reaches its limit, and it combines with Cr, and Cr₂N precipitates are formed, resulting in a decrease in high-temperature oxidation resistance due to local Cr depletion in the matrix. In addition, in order to control the N content to less than 0.005%, the VOD process cost for steelmaking increases, which is not preferable. Therefore, the content of N is limited to the range of 0.005 to 0.015%.
The content of Si is 0.5 to 1.5%.
Si is a solid solution strengthening element for increasing high-temperature strength, and also increases high-temperature oxidation resistance by forming a Si-enriched oxide film on the surface layer. For the above two effects, a minimum Si content of 0.5% or more is required, and if it exceeds 1.5%, the workability of the material is greatly deteriorated, so the Si content is limited as above.
The content of Mn is 0.1 to 0.5%.
Mn is an impurity that is inevitably included in steel and plays a role in stabilizing austenite. If the Mn content exceeds 0.5% in low-Cr ferritic stainless steel, reverse austenite transformation occurs during annealing heat treatment after hot rolling or cold rolling, which adversely affects elongation. Therefore, the content of Mn is limited as above.
The content of Cr is 9 to 14%.
Cr is an essential element added to form a passivation film that inhibits oxidation in stainless steel. In order to form a stable passivation film, Cr of 9% or more should be added. However, since the present disclosure aims to develop low-cost steel with reduced Cr, the upper limit is limited to 14%. More preferably, it may be in the range of 10.5 to 12.5%.
The content of Ti is 0.1 to 0.3%.
Ti should be added at least 0.1% in order to increase the corrosion resistance of the weld. Ti combines with C and N to form Ti(C,N) precipitates, thereby lowering the amount of solid solution C and N, and suppressing the formation of a Cr depletion layer. However, when the Ti content exceeds 0.3%, the Ti component of the surface layer reacts with oxygen, causing yellow discoloration. Therefore, the Ti content is limited as above.
The content of Cu is 0.3 to 0.8%.
Cu is an element that contributes to high-temperature strength by replacing Nb as a solid solution strengthening element. In addition, when Cu generates fine precipitates through appropriate heat treatment, additional high-temperature strength can be expected due to the precipitation strengthening effect. Therefore, it is added at least 0.5%. However, if too much Cu is added, the high-temperature hot workability may be impaired, so the amount is limited to 0.8% or less.
The content of Al is 0.01 to 0.05%.
Al is an element added for deoxidation during steel making. When the Al content exceeds 0.05%, Al in the surface layer reacts with oxygen to form a nonuniform oxide layer, which adversely affects high-temperature oxidation resistance. Therefore, the Al content is limited as above.
The content of Sn is 0.005 to 0.15%.
Sn is a solid solution strengthening element for increasing high-temperature strength, and at the same time, it increases high-temperature oxidation resistance by forming a Sn-enriched oxide film on the surface layer. For the above two effects, at least Sn of 0.005% or more should be added. However, if it exceeds 0.15%, Sn segregates at the grain interface during hot rolling, weakening the bonding force between grains, causing microcracks in the surface layer. Therefore, the upper limit of the Sn content is limited to 0.15% or less.
In addition, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, Ni: 0.3% or less, P: 0.04% or less, and S: 0.002% or less may be further included.
The content of Ni is 0.3% or less. Ni is an impurity that is inevitably included in steel, and may be contained in an amount of 0.01% or more, and plays a role in stabilizing austenite. When the Ni content exceeds 0.3% in low-Cr ferritic stainless steel, reverse austenite transformation occurs during annealing heat treatment after hot rolling or cold rolling, which adversely affects elongation. Therefore, the content of Ni is limited as above.
The content of P is 0.04% or less. P is an inevitable impurity contained in steel, and since it causes intergranular corrosion during pickling or impairs hot workability, its content is adjusted to 0.04% or less.
The content of S is 0.002% or less. S is an unavoidable impurity contained in steel, and its content is limited to 0.002% or less because it segregates at grain boundaries and impairs hot workability.
The remainder of the ferritic stainless steel except for the above alloying elements is made of Fe and other inevitable impurities.
Meanwhile, the low-Cr ferritic stainless steel with excellent formability and high temperature properties according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may satisfy the following Formulas (1) to (3). $Cu + Si \geq 1.3$
The high-temperature strength is usually affected by solid solution strengthening and precipitation strengthening. Since Cu and Si are representative solid solution strengthening elements, they are preferably added to increase high-temperature strength. When Cu is precipitated in the Cu precipitated phase, the high-temperature strength increases more effectively due to the precipitation strengthening effect. In addition, when the Si content is increased, since the limit of the solubility of Cu is lowered, the precipitation of the Cu precipitated phase becomes easier. Accordingly, a Cu precipitated phase of 0.03wt% or more having a size of 1 to 500 nm in the matrix may be precipitated. Therefore, the Cu+Si content is controlled in the range of 1.3% or more.
Through the above solid solution strengthening and precipitation strengthening effect, the low-Cr ferritic stainless steel according to the present disclosure can exhibit a high-temperature strength of 12 MPa or more at 900°C. $Si + Cu + 10 * Sn \leq 3.0$
The Si, Cu, and Sn alloy elements have a positive effect on the high-temperature strength or high-temperature oxidation resistance, respectively, but the material is too hard, resulting in poor elongation and poor formability. In the present disclosure, when Si and Cu improve high-temperature strength and satisfy Formula (3) at the same time, an elongation of 30% or more can be secured to prevent poor formability. Therefore, in order to secure material workability, the relationship between Si, Cu, and Sn content is controlled within the above range. $(Si + 5 * Sn) /Ti \geq 5.0$
In high temperature oxidation, when Si and Sn are added to low-Cr ferritic stainless steel, a uniform oxide film of Si and Sn is first formed to suppress abnormal oxidation. However, when Ti is added, the Ti oxide film is formed unevenly, and since the Ti oxide film itself exhibits yellow color, high temperature discoloration occurs. Therefore, it is possible to improve the high-temperature oxidation resistance by controlling the Si, Sn, and Ti content in the above range.
Next, a manufacturing method of a low-Cr ferritic stainless steel with excellent formability and high temperature properties according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described.
The manufacturing method of low-Cr ferritic stainless steel with excellent formability and high temperature properties of the present disclosure can manufacture cold rolled steel sheet through a conventional manufacturing process, and includes performing a cold rolled annealing heat treatment on a ferritic stainless steel cold rolled steel sheet containing the above-described alloy composition and satisfying Formulas (1) to (3); and rapid cooling to a temperature range of 450 to 550°C and maintaining for 5 minutes or more.
For example, the cold rolled steel sheets may be manufactured by hot-rolling the slab containing the above-described alloy component composition, annealing the hot-rolled steel sheet, and cold-rolling
The cold rolled steel sheet can be rapidly cooled to a temperature range of 450 to 550°C and maintained for 5 minutes or more after the usual recrystallization heat treatment in the cold rolling annealing process. Through the cooling and maintenance, it is possible to increase the precipitation of the Cu precipitated phase in the same component system, and to further improve the high-temperature strength.
Accordingly, the cold-rolled annealed steel sheet may contain a Cu precipitated phase of 0.09 wt% or more having a size of 1 to 500 nm in the matrix, and a high-temperature strength of 900°C may be 14.5 MPa or more.
Hereinafter, it will be described in more detail through a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure.

Discoloration occurred at high temperature, but Cu precipitate of 0.05 wt% was precipitated by satisfying Formula (1), and high-temperature strength was 12 MPa or more. In addition, it was confirmed that the high-temperature strength was secured by satisfying Formula (2), and the elongation was measured as 33.3%, indicating excellent formability.
Inventive Examples 2 to 4 satisfy all of Formulas (1) to (3) by optimizing the Si, Cu, and Sn content. As a result, high-temperature strength of 13.5 MPa or more and elongation of 30.8% or more were exhibited, and high-temperature discoloration did not occur.
Inventive Examples 5 to 7 show that all of Formulas (1) to (3) were satisfied by optimizing the Si, Cu, and Sn contents, and the cooling schedule after heat treatment according to the present disclosure was applied.

It will be appreciated that various changes and modifications are possible.
