Definitions
- the present invention relates to an innovative work roll coating for application in cold rolling and temper-mill rolling of steel products and the method for producing such innovative coating.
- Cold rolling is an industrial process where sheets or strips of metal are passed between large rollers, which compress it and squeeze it under high pressure. This results in grain reorientation and creation of defects in the crystal structure of the metal. Depending on the applied strain, different mechanical properties are achieved after cold-rolling, usually including a higher yield strength and greater hardness of the metal strip.
- the thickness of the metal strip is hence reduced by processing it through a sequence of rolling mill stands. Multi-stand mills typically consist of three to six pairs of rollers in a series, each pre-set to reduce the thickness by a certain percentage until the final thickness is reached.
- Hard chrome plating of work rolls is standard practice in the rolling industry since the 1980's.
- the benefits thereof are an improvement of roughness retention, leading to an increase of rolling length and of service life, the latter up to a factor of 2, strip cleanliness improvement as well as provision of a cheap and robust process.
- a wide range of technologies allow to coat rolling mill rolls with protective coatings, for instance powder spraying (thermal spray or cold spray), vacuum deposition (PVD, CVD), as well as chemical and electrolytic processes.
- powder spraying thermal spray or cold spray
- PVD vacuum deposition
- electroplating and chemical plating are of particular interest in the cold rolling industry, since they are well adapted for the application of coatings with thickness in the appropriate range of 5 to 10 ⁇ m.
- the surface morphology of electroplated and chemical plated coatings is also very similar to that of EHC coatings, which is beneficial for the surface quality of the rolled sheet.
- the treatment cost and processing time associated with the electroplating process for large parts is advantageous as compared, for instance, to vacuum deposition.
- Electroplated alloyed metal coatings are usually based on co-deposition of an iron group metal (Fe, Ni, Co, Cr) with another alloy forming element.
- iron group metal Fe, Ni, Co, Cr
- Such alloys include Ni-P, Ni-B, Ni-Fe, Ni-Co, Ni-Cr, Ni-Mo, Ni-W, Co-P, Co-B, Co-W, Co-Mo, Co-Cr, Co-Fe, Cr-P, Cr-C, Fe-C, Fe-P, Fe-B, Fe-P-B.
- Cermet coatings are obtained by co-deposition of metal or metal alloys and embedded non-metallic particles, which generally belong to, but are not limited to, carbides, nitrides, borides or oxides.
- the hard particles further enhance the micro-hardness, load-bearing capacity and wear resistance of the coating.
- Those heat treatments typically require temperatures in the range 300 to 500°C applied during minutes or hours.
- FIG. 1 shows the evolution of the hardness of DIN 1.2363 steel samples during oven-annealing trials performed at different durations and temperatures.
- the steel samples were initially heat-treated and quenched using a heat cycle representative for cold rolling rolls. It can be observed that, above 250°C, the steel hardness is significantly and prohibitively reduced with increasing annealing time.
- FIG. 2 shows the hardness evolution of SIHARD TM R246 steel from SIJ Ravne Systems, initially induction-hardened to 720HV then oven-annealed in air under different conditions (temperature and time).
- SIHARD TM R246 steel from SIJ Ravne Systems
- Laser-based surface treatments of steel parts are described in the scientific literature and patents. Local heating of the surface by the laser beam has been applied for raising the surface temperature in the austenitisation range or even above the melting point, which can be exploited for surface hardening, texturing, or alloying. Laser-annealing has also been applied in some studies for annealing of steel parts with protective coatings applied by electroplating. In those references, the annealing is applied on the whole part or at least on a part of the substrate.
- US 4,628,179 A to J. Crahay discloses a method for providing isotropic roughness on the surface of a rolling mill roll by focusing a continuous concentrated corpuscular beam, e.g. a laser beam or an electron beam, on the roll surface, guiding the beam to impinge on the roll surface in a helical path, and regulating the concentration of the beam, the relative speed of rotation of the roll, and the translation speed of the beam.
- a continuous concentrated corpuscular beam e.g. a laser beam or an electron beam
- the Cr- and Fe-based alloy deposits could be significantly hardened after rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at 500°C for a few seconds.
- RTA rapid thermal annealing
- the hardness values of the annealed Cr- and Fe-based alloy deposits increase with the increasing degree of crystallization of the C-related membranes.
- the highest hardness of an alloy deposit was observed after RTA at 500°C for 10 s, and the highest hardness of 1205 Hv was found for the Cr-based alloy deposit prepared with 30 A dm-2.
- Document US 2008/0102291 A1 discloses a method for coating a substrate.
- the method includes applying a coating to a surface of the substrate, such as applying a metallic or cermet coating via a HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel) coating process, and locally heating the applied coating and a first portion of the substrate, for example via an induction heating process or a laser heating process.
- the first portion includes the surface of the substrate and less than the entire substrate.
- the method further includes cooling the applied coating and the first portion, for example by use of compressed or ambient air, or ambient water.

- the solution of the invention is also intended to bring added value for applications where thermally-sensitive metal objects need to be coated with a hard and wear-resistant coating, for instance to increase the mechanical durability of aluminum parts.
- a first aspect of the present invention relates to a method of coating a thermally-sensitive metal object with a protective coating, comprising the following steps:
- the method is further limited by one of the following characteristics or a suitable combination thereof:
- a second aspect of the invention relates to a coated thermally-sensitive metal object, obtained by the method according to anyone of the preceding claims, characterised in that the thickness of the coating layer with improved mechanical property is comprised between 2 and 100 ⁇ m.

Micro-hardness is measured according to a method which is well-known of the skilled person (Vickers method, ISO 6507/ ASTM E384). FIG. 3 shows a micro-hardness depth-profile of the sample measured to a depth of 3mm. The micro-hardness value reported in Table 1 for the substrate is the average of the 30 data points measured for the depth profile. As shown on Table 1, before annealing, the coating is softer than the substrate. Table 1. Micro-hardness comparison between coating and substrate in non-annealed condition Non annealed Ni-P coating applied by electroplating on a DIN 1.2363 steel substrate Micro-hardness (HV0.1) Coating 540 ⁇ 11 Substrate 685 ⁇ 10

As shown on Table 2 and FIG. 4 , the micro-hardness depth-profile of the substrate is not significantly impacted by the superficial annealing treatment. Table 2. Micro-hardness comparison between substrate and coating after annealing Ni-P coating applied by electroplating on a DIN 1.2363 steel substrate after superficial annealing Micro-hardness (HV0.1) Coating 1035 ⁇ 19 Substrate 678 ⁇ 12

- Oven-annealing was performed by introducing the coated sample in a furnace pre-heated at 390°C. The sample was left at 390°C for 60min in air then withdrawn from the oven and allowed to cool down to room temperature.
- FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 show the micro-hardness depth profile of the substrate measured, respectively, after laser-annealing and oven annealing.
- the substrate micro-hardness after laser-annealing is not significantly impacted by the superficial annealing treatment. In contrast, softening of the substrate is observed throughout the sample in the case of oven-annealing. Table 4.
