Description

  The present invention relates to a hot rolling roll, and more particularly to a centrifugal cast composite roll suitable for a hot rolling finishing stand of a steel plate.

  In recent years, the progress of hot rolling technology for steel sheets has been remarkable, and the usage environment of hot rolling rolls has become more severe. Particularly recently, the production of steel plates with a large hot rolling load such as high-strength steel plates and thin-walled products has been increasing. For this reason, the improvement of the roll characteristics for hot rolling used, especially the improvement of abrasion resistance has been strongly demanded. In response to such a demand for improvement in wear resistance, a high-speed roll having a composition similar to that of the high-speed tool steel composition and a large amount of hard carbide dispersed to significantly improve wear resistance has been developed. It is used a lot.

  For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 04-365836 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 05-1350 propose a roll outer layer material for rolling. The outer layer material described in Patent Document 1 is C: 1.5 to 3.5%, Ni: 5.5% or less, Cr: 5.5 to 12.0%, Mo: 2.0 to 8.0%, V: 3.0 to 10.0%, Nb: 0.5 to 7.0 %, And Nb and V are contained so that the contents of Nb, V and C satisfy a specific relationship, and the ratio of Nb and V falls within a specific range. Thereby, even if the centrifugal casting method is applied, segregation in the outer layer material is suppressed, and the outer layer material for rolling is excellent in wear resistance and crack resistance. The outer layer material described in Patent Document 2 includes C: 1.5 to 3.5%, Cr: 5.5 to 12.0%, Mo: 2.0 to 8.0%, V: 3.0 to 10.0%, Nb: 0.5 to 7.0%, In addition, Nb and V are contained so that the contents of Nb, V and C satisfy a specific relationship, and the ratio of Nb and V falls within a specific range. Thereby, even if the centrifugal casting method is applied, segregation in the outer layer material is suppressed, wear resistance and crack resistance are improved, and it is said that it greatly contributes to productivity improvement of hot rolling.

However, from the viewpoint of improving the quality and productivity of hot-rolled products, the usage environment of hot-rolling rolls becomes harsh, and the requirements for the surface quality of hot-rolled products become stricter. Nevertheless, there is a problem that the required wear resistance and surface quality cannot be satisfied.
For such a problem, for example, in Patent Document 3, C: 2.5 to 4.0%, Cr: 6.0 to 20.0%, Mo: 2.0 to 12.0%, V: 3.0 to 10.0%, Nb: 0.6 to 5.0%, A roll outer layer material for hot rolling has been proposed in which the C, V, Nb, and Cr contents are adjusted so as to satisfy a specific relational expression. According to the technique described in Patent Document 3, in the outer layer material, eutectic carbide is increased in addition to hard granular carbide, and further, the carbide and the matrix phase are strengthened, and the outer layer has excellent wear resistance. It is said that a hot-rolling composite roll having excellent fatigue resistance and a low thermal expansion coefficient and excellent surface roughness resistance can be produced. Further, in Patent Document 4, the outer layer contains C: 2.5 to 2.9%, Cr: 12 to 18%, Mo: 2.0 to 12.0%, V: 3 to 8%, Nb: 0.5 to 4%, Mo / Cr , Rolls for hot rolling have been proposed that contain C, Mo, and Cr so that C + 0.2Cr is within a specific range. According to the technique described in Patent Document 4, an appropriate amount introduction of MC-type carbide and M ₇ C ₃ type carbide, strengthen the MC type carbide and a M ₇ C ₃ type carbide is achieved, segregation of carbides in the roll outer layer It is said that the deterioration of the surface quality of the rolled product can be prevented.

  However, recent hot-rolled steel sheets (rolled products) are required to be further thinned, increased in strength, and improved in quality, and the increase in rolling load is significant. The hot rolling conditions are becoming more severe, and the usage environment of the hot rolling roll is becoming more severe. On the surface of the roll for hot rolling, when the material to be rolled is hot-rolled, a sliding stress acting in the roll rolling direction and a rolling stress acting in the roll axial direction act repeatedly, and further from the backup roll. Repeated rolling stress acts. Due to such repeated heat and stress loads, the roll surface layer is fatigued, causing fatigue damage such as rough skin, fatigue crack initiation / growth, and surface layer chipping.

  An object of the present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art and to provide a hot rolled centrifugal cast roll outer layer material and a centrifugal cast composite roll excellent in wear resistance and fatigue resistance of the roll surface layer. To do.

  In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present inventors diligently studied the influence of alloying elements on the fatigue resistance during hot rolling of a centrifugally cast roll outer layer material. As a result, by limiting Cr to 5.0 to 8.0% by mass and adjusting the content of each element so that V and Mo, and further C, V and Nb satisfy a specific relationship, In addition to being excellent in wear resistance during hot rolling, the inventors have obtained an unprecedented knowledge that fatigue resistance is significantly improved.

First, the experimental results on which the present invention is based will be described.
In mass%, C: 2.3-2.6%, Si: 0.3-0.6%, Mn: 0.3-0.7%, Nb: 0.7-1.2%, Cr 5.0-7.7%, Mo 3.4-5.7%, V 4.7 Change in the range of ~ 6.8%, melt the melt composed of the remainder Fe and unavoidable impurities in a high frequency furnace, and create a ring-shaped roll material corresponding to the roll outer layer material (outer diameter: 250mmφ, wall thickness: 60mm) Casted by centrifugal casting. The casting temperature was 1400 ° C. to 1450 ° C., and the centrifugal force was 180 G as a multiple of gravity. After casting, quenching and tempering were performed, and the hardness was adjusted to HS 82-84. It should be noted that the outer layer material made of high-speed centrifugal casting (2.3% by mass C-0.3% by mass Si-0.4% by mass Mn-6.2% by mass Cr-3.7% by mass Mo-5.2) used for a hot rolling post-stage rolling mill Mass% V-1.6 mass% Nb-remainder Fe and unavoidable impurities) equivalent material was similarly subjected to centrifugal casting, and then subjected to the same heat treatment as a standard (conventional example).

  Fatigue test pieces (outer diameter 60mmφ, wall thickness 10mm) and wear test pieces (outer diameter 60mmφ, wall thickness 10mm) were sampled from the obtained ring-shaped roll material and subjected to hot rolling fatigue test and wear test. . In addition, the fatigue test piece has a notch (depth t: 1.1 mm, circumferential length L: 1.1 mm) as shown in FIG. 2 at two locations on the outer peripheral surface using electric discharge machining (0.2 mmφ wire). It was introduced by the wire cut method. Further, the end portions of the rolling surfaces of the wear test piece and the fatigue test piece were chamfered.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the hot rolling fatigue test is performed by a two-disk sliding rolling method between a test piece and a counterpart material, and the test piece (fatigue test piece) having a notch as shown in FIG. 2 is cooled with water. While rotating the test piece at 700 rpm, the mating piece (material: S45C, outer diameter: 190 mmφ, width: 10 mm, with chamfering) heated to 820 ° C was pressed against the rotating test piece at a load of 980 N, and the sliding rate was 10%. Was rolled. Rolling was performed until the two notches introduced into the fatigue test piece were broken, and the rolling rotation speed until each notch was broken was determined, and the average value was taken as the broken rolling rotation speed. And the broken rolling rotation speed of the conventional example is 1.0 (reference), the ratio of the broken rolling rotation speed of each ring-shaped roll material to the reference, (the broken rolling rotation speed of the ring-shaped roll material) / (conventional example The number of broken rolling rotations) was calculated. When this ratio exceeded 1.2, it was evaluated that the fatigue resistance was remarkably excellent. FIG. 3 shows the relationship between the ratio of the broken rolling rotation speed and the amount of (Mo + V) (mass%).

FIG. 3 shows that with an increase in the amount of (Mo + V), the ratio of the broken rolling rotation speed increases, and the fatigue resistance is improved. Further, if the Cr content is within this range, it can be said that the influence on fatigue resistance is not significant. Further, FIG. 3 suggests that the amount of (Mo + V) needs to exceed 10.0% in order to ensure fatigue resistance of 1.2 times or more that of the reference material.
According to the study by the present inventors, if this hot rolling fatigue test is used, it is possible to reproduce the rough surface generated by the hot rolling roll and the occurrence / progress of fatigue cracks. Can easily evaluate the fatigue resistance. It can be said that it is a roll outer layer material which has the outstanding fatigue resistance, so that there are many broken rolling rotation speeds.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the abrasion test is performed by a two-disk sliding rolling method between a test piece and a mating member, and the test piece (wear test piece) is rotated at 700 rpm while being cooled with water. The mating piece (material: S45C, outer diameter: 190mmφ, width: 15mm, with chamfering) heated to 810 ° C was rolled at a sliding rate of 10% while being pressed with a load of 980N. Rolling was performed until the cumulative number of rolling rotations reached 252000, and the wear loss of the test piece was determined. Then, assuming that the wear loss of the conventional example is 1.0 <reference>, the ratio of the wear loss of each ring-shaped roll material to the reference, (wear loss of ring-shaped roll material) / (wear loss of conventional example) was calculated. FIG. 4 shows the relationship between the ratio of the obtained weight loss and the amount of (Mo + V) (mass%).

  As can be seen from FIG. 4, as the amount of (Mo + V) increases, the ratio of wear loss decreases, and the wear resistance improves. Further, if the Cr content is within this range, it can be said that the influence on the wear resistance is not significant. Further, from FIG. 3, it is suggested that the wear loss ratio is further reduced by making the (Mo + V) amount more than 10.0%, and the wear resistance is improved as well as the fatigue resistance.

The present invention has been completed based on the above findings and further studies. That is, the gist of the present invention is as follows.

  According to the present invention, a high-performance centrifugal cast composite roll for hot rolling with significantly improved fatigue resistance can be manufactured easily and inexpensively, and a remarkable industrial effect is achieved. The composite roll made of centrifugal cast for hot rolling according to the present invention has significantly improved fatigue resistance and wear, rough skin, and fatigue cracks even under severe hot rolling environments where high rolling loads act. -Roll surface damage such as growth and chipping off of the surface layer can be remarkably suppressed. According to the present invention, the surface quality of hot-rolled steel sheet is significantly improved, the productivity of hot-rolled steel sheet is improved, and the roll life is improved. There is also an effect that can be done.

  The roll outer layer material of the present invention is manufactured by centrifugal casting and can be used as it is as a ring roll or a sleeve roll, but is applied as an outer layer material of a composite roll for hot rolling suitable for hot finish rolling. The composite roll for hot rolling according to the present invention comprises an outer layer formed by centrifugal casting and an inner layer welded and integrated with the outer layer. An intermediate layer may be disposed between the outer layer and the inner layer. That is, instead of the inner layer welded and integrated with the outer layer, an intermediate layer welded and integrated with the outer layer and an inner layer welded and integrated with the intermediate layer may be used. The inner layer is preferably manufactured by a static casting method. In the present invention, the composition of the inner layer and the intermediate layer is not particularly limited, but the inner layer is preferably made of spheroidal graphite cast iron, and the intermediate layer is preferably made of a high carbon material of C: 1.5 to 3% by mass.

First, the reasons for limiting the composition of the roll outer layer material (outer layer) will be described. In the following, mass% is simply written as% unless otherwise specified.
C: 2.2-2.6%
C forms a solid solution to increase the base hardness and combines with a carbide forming element to form a hard carbide, thereby improving the wear resistance of the roll outer layer material. The amount of eutectic carbide varies depending on the C content. Since eutectic carbide affects the rolling use characteristics, if the C content is less than 2.2%, the amount of eutectic carbide is insufficient, the frictional force during rolling increases, and rolling becomes unstable. On the other hand, the content exceeding 2.6% excessively increases the amount of eutectic carbide, hardens and embrittles the roll outer layer material, and reduces crack resistance. For this reason, C was limited to the range of 2.2 to 2.6%.

Si: 0.2-0.7%
Si is an element that acts as a deoxidizer and improves the castability of the molten metal. In the present invention, it is desirable to contain 0.2% or more, but even if contained over 0.7%, the effect is saturated and contained An effect commensurate with the amount cannot be expected, resulting in an economic disadvantage. For this reason, Si was limited to 0.2 to 0.7%.

Mn: 0.2-0.7%
Mn is an element that has the effect of fixing S as MnS and rendering it harmless, and also has the effect of improving the hardenability by dissolving in the matrix. In order to obtain such an effect, a content of 0.2% or more is required. However, if the content exceeds 0.7%, the effect is saturated and an effect commensurate with the content cannot be expected, which is economically disadvantageous. For this reason, Mn was limited to 0.2 to 0.7%.

Cr: 5.0-8.0%
Cr combines with C to mainly form eutectic carbides, improves wear resistance, reduces friction with steel sheets during rolling, reduces roll surface damage, and stabilizes rolling. It is an element having In order to obtain such an effect, a content of 5.0% or more is required. On the other hand, if the content exceeds 8.0%, hard and brittle eutectic carbides increase excessively, and fatigue resistance is lowered. For this reason, Cr was limited to the range of 5.0 to 8.0%.

Mo: 4.4-6.0%
Mo is an element that combines with C to form hard carbides and improves wear resistance. Mo dissolves in hard MC type carbides to strengthen the carbides and also dissolves in eutectic carbides to increase the fracture resistance of these carbides. Through such an action, Mo improves the fatigue resistance and wear resistance of the roll outer layer material. In order to obtain such an effect, the content of 4.0% or more is required. However, if the content exceeds 6.0%, Mo-based hard and brittle carbides are generated, and fatigue resistance is lowered. For this reason, Mo was limited to the range of 4.4 to 6.0%.

V: 5.3-7.0%
V is an important element in the present invention in order to have both wear resistance and fatigue resistance. V forms extremely hard carbide (MC type carbide), improves wear resistance, and effectively acts to sever and disperse eutectic carbide, thereby significantly improving the fatigue resistance of the outer layer material of the roll. It is an element that improves. Such an effect becomes remarkable when the content is 5.3% or more. However, when the content exceeds 7.0%, the MC type carbide is coarsened and the centrifugal casting segregation of the MC type carbide is promoted. Destabilize the characteristics. For this reason, V was limited to the range of 5.3 to 7.0%.

Nb: 0.6 to 1.3%
Nb improves the wear resistance and further the fatigue resistance through the action of strengthening the MC type carbide by solid solution in the MC type carbide and increasing the fracture resistance. Nb is an element that has an action of promoting the division of the eutectic carbide, suppressing the destruction of the eutectic carbide, and improving the fatigue resistance of the outer layer material of the roll. Nb also has the effect of suppressing segregation during centrifugal casting of MC type carbide. Such an effect becomes remarkable when the content is 0.6% or more, but the content exceeding 1.3% promotes the growth of MC type carbides in the molten metal and promotes the segregation of carbides during centrifugal casting. For this reason, Nb was limited to the range of 0.6 to 1.3%.

In the present invention, Mo and V are contained within the above-described content range, and the following formula (1)
10.0 <(Mo + V) ≤ 12.5 (1)
(Where Mo, V: content of each element (mass%))
The content is adjusted so as to satisfy.
When the amount of (Mo + V) is 10.0% or less and the expression (1) is not satisfied, desired excellent wear resistance and fatigue resistance cannot be secured. On the other hand, if the content exceeds 12.5%, hard carbides increase excessively, the roll outer layer material becomes hard and brittle, fatigue resistance decreases, and castability also decreases. For this reason, the amount of (Mo + V) is limited to 10.0% exceeding 12.5% satisfying the expression (1) and 12.5% or less.

In the present invention, C, V, and Nb are contained within the above-described content range, and the following formula (2)
0.6 ≦ (C−0.24V−0.13Nb) ≦ 1.3 (2)
(Where V, C, Nb: content of each element (mass%))
The content is adjusted so as to satisfy.
V and Nb combine with C to form MC type carbides. Therefore, (C-0.24V-0.13Nb) means the amount of carbon that forms eutectic carbide or dissolves in the matrix, affects the hardness of the matrix and the amount of eutectic carbide, and is a rolled steel sheet. It is a factor that governs the frictional force between the roll and the roll and the rough skin resistance of the roll.

If (C-0.24V-0.13Nb) is less than 0.6, the amount of eutectic carbide is insufficient, and the frictional force at the time of steel plate rolling increases. On the other hand, when C-0.24V-0.13Nb) exceeds 1.3, the amount of eutectic carbide excessively increases, the roll outer layer material becomes hard and brittle, and crack resistance decreases. For this reason, (C-0.24V-0.13Nb) is limited to 0.6 or more and 1.3 or less which satisfies the formula (2).
The balance other than the components described above consists of Fe and inevitable impurities. Examples of inevitable impurities include P: 0.05% or less, S: 0.05% or less, N: 0.06% or less, and B: 0.008% or less. P is segregated at the grain boundaries and deteriorates the material, so it is desirable to reduce it as much as possible in the present invention, but 0.05% or less is acceptable. Further, S is present as sulfide inclusions and lowers the material, so it is preferable to reduce it as much as possible, but 0.05% or less is acceptable. N is mixed by about 0.06% or less in the case of normal dissolution, but this level does not affect the effect of the present invention. B is an element mixed from scrap, casting flux, or the like as a melting raw material, and has an action of dissolving the carbide in the carbide and weakening the carbide. In the present invention, it is preferable to reduce it as much as possible, but 0.008% or less Then, the effect of the present invention is not adversely affected and is acceptable.

Below, the preferable manufacturing method of the composite roll for hot rolling of this invention is demonstrated.
First, in the present invention, the roll outer layer material manufacturing method is an inexpensive centrifugal casting method with low energy cost.
First, a molten mold having the above-described roll outer layer material composition is poured into a rotating mold whose inner surface is coated with a refractory mainly composed of zircon or the like so as to have a predetermined thickness, and then centrifugally cast. When the intermediate layer is formed, it is preferable that the outer layer layer material is solidified during solidification or completely solidified, and then the molten metal having the intermediate layer composition is poured and centrifugally cast while rotating the mold. After the outer layer or the intermediate layer is completely solidified, it is preferable to stop the mold rotation and stand the mold, and then statically cast the inner layer material to form a composite roll. Thereby, the inner surface side of the roll outer layer material is redissolved to form a composite roll in which the outer layer and the inner layer, or the outer layer and the intermediate layer, and the intermediate layer and the inner layer are welded and integrated.

  In addition, it is preferable to use spheroidal graphite cast iron, worm-like graphite cast iron (VC cast iron), etc. excellent in castability and mechanical properties for the inner layer to be statically cast. Since the outer layer and the inner layer are integrally welded to the centrifugal casting roll, the component of the outer layer material is mixed in the inner layer by about 1 to 8%. When carbide forming elements such as Cr and V contained in the outer layer material are mixed into the inner layer, the inner layer is weakened. For this reason, it is preferable to suppress the mixing rate of the outer layer component into the inner layer to less than 6%.

Moreover, when forming an intermediate | middle layer, it is preferable to use graphite steel, high carbon steel, hypoeutectic cast iron, etc. as an intermediate | middle layer material. The intermediate layer and the outer layer are integrally welded in the same manner, and the outer layer components are mixed in the intermediate layer in the range of 10% or more and less than 100%. From the viewpoint of suppressing the amount of the outer layer component mixed into the inner layer, it is important to reduce the amount of the outer layer component mixed into the intermediate layer as much as possible.
The composite roll for hot rolling of the present invention is preferably subjected to heat treatment after casting. The heat treatment is preferably a treatment in which the step of heating to 950 to 1150 ° C. and air cooling or blast air cooling and the step of cooling to 450 to 600 ° C. and then cooling are performed once or more.

  In addition, the preferable hardness of the composite roll for hot rolling of this invention is 79-88HS, and more preferable hardness is 80-86HS. It is recommended to adjust the heat treatment after casting so that such hardness can be secured stably.

  The melt of the roll outer layer material composition shown in Table 1 was melted in a high-frequency furnace and made into a ring-shaped test material (ring roll; outer diameter: 250 mmφ, wall thickness: 60 mm) by centrifugal casting. The casting temperature was 1400-1450 ° C., and the centrifugal force was 180 G as a multiple of gravity. After casting, quenching and tempering were performed and the hardness was adjusted to 81 to 84HS. It should be noted that the outer layer material made of high-speed centrifugal cast rolls used for the post-rolling mill after hot finish rolling (in mass%, 2.3% C-0.3% Si-0.4% Mn-6.2% Cr-3.7% Mo-5.2% A ring-shaped test material (ring roll) having a composition of V-1.6% Nb-remainder Fe and inevitable impurities) was similarly cast by a centrifugal casting method, and further subjected to heat treatment to obtain a reference material (conventional example).

A fatigue test piece and a wear test piece were collected from the obtained ring-shaped test material, and a hot rolling fatigue test and a wear test were performed. The test method was as follows.
(1) Hot rolling fatigue test A fatigue test piece (outer diameter 60 mmφ, wall thickness 10 mm, with chamfering) having the shape shown in FIG. 2 was collected from the obtained ring-shaped test material. For the fatigue test piece, electrical discharge machining (wire cutting) using notches (depth t: 1.1 mm, circumferential length L: 1.1 mm) as shown in FIG. ) Method.

As shown in FIG. 1, the hot rolling fatigue test is performed by a two-disc sliding rolling method between a test piece and a counterpart material, and the fatigue test piece is rotated at 700 rpm while being cooled with water. The mating piece (material: S45C, outer diameter: 190mmφ, width: 10mm, with chamfering) heated to 820 ° C was rolled at a sliding rate of 10% while being pressed with a load of 980N. And it was made to roll until two notches introduced into the fatigue test piece broke, each rolling rotation speed until each notch broke was calculated | required, and the average value was made into the broken rolling rotation speed. And the ratio of the broken rolling rotation speed of each of the ring-shaped test materials obtained and the conventional example, based on the broken rolling rotation speed of the conventional example (1.0), (the broken rolling rotation speed of each ring-shaped test material ) / (Breakage rolling speed of conventional example) was calculated and used as an index of fatigue resistance.
(2) Wear test A wear test piece (outer diameter 60 mmφ, wall thickness 10 mm, chamfered) was collected from the obtained ring-shaped test material and subjected to a wear test. The wear test was performed by a two-disk sliding wear method between a test piece and a counterpart material shown in FIG. Rotate the test piece (wear test piece) at 700 rpm while cooling with water, and load the mating piece (material: S45C, outer diameter: 190mmφ, width: 15mm, with chamfering) heated to 810 ° C to the rotating test piece Rolled at a slip rate of 10% while pressing with Rolling was performed until the cumulative number of rolling rotations reached 252000, and the wear loss of the test piece was determined. Then, with the wear loss of the conventional example as the standard (= 1.0), the ratio of the wear loss of each ring-shaped test material to the wear loss of the conventional example, (wear loss of each ring-shaped test material) / (wear loss of the conventional example) As an index of wear resistance.

  The obtained results are shown in Table 2.

  In all of the examples of the present invention, the wear resistance and fatigue resistance are remarkably improved by more than 1.2 times compared to the conventional examples. On the other hand, the comparative example out of the scope of the present invention does not show a remarkable improvement in which one or both of wear resistance and fatigue resistance exceed 1.2 times compared to the conventional example.
