Description

本発明は鋼材、浸窒処理用鋼材に関する。   TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a steel material and a steel material for carbonitriding treatment.

リングギアを代表とする自動車のトランスミッションの中の遊星ギヤの一部品である薄物部品の表面硬化処理法として、高炭素マルテンサイトの形成を利用した浸炭処理や合金窒化物による析出強化を利用した窒化処理が広く用いられている。ここで、浸炭処理では処理ひずみの大きさが、窒化処理では処理時間が長い事や硬化層が浅い事が問題となっており改善が求められている。そのため浸炭処理に比べ処理ひずみが小さく、窒化処理より短時間で比較的厚い硬化層が得られる新たな表面硬化処理法として浸窒焼入れ処理法が開発され、工業的に利用され始めている。   As surface hardening treatment method for thin parts which are one component of planetary gears in transmissions of ring gears, carburizing using high carbon martensite formation and nitriding using precipitation strengthening with alloy nitrides Processing is widely used. Here, in the case of the carburizing treatment, the magnitude of the treatment strain is a problem, and in the nitriding treatment, the problem is that the treatment time is long and the hardened layer is shallow, and an improvement is required. Therefore, as a new surface hardening treatment method in which a treatment strain is smaller than carburizing treatment and a relatively thick hardened layer can be obtained in a short time than nitriding treatment, a nitro-quenching treatment method has been developed and is beginning to be used industrially.

浸窒焼入れ処理法はA1点(863K)以上の温度域で鋼表面から窒素を拡散浸透させて高窒素オーステナイトを表層部で得た後に、焼入れて硬質な高窒素マルテンサイトを生成させる表面硬化法である。浸窒焼入れ処理法は浸炭処理に比べ低温で処理を行うため熱ひずみが小さく、母材がオーステナイト化しない温度域では変態ひずみも小さい。また窒化に比べて高温で処理を行うため処理時間が短くなることが期待される。
このような浸窒処理に関する従来法として、例えば特許文献1〜6に記載の方法が提案されている。
In the case of carbonitriding, nitrogen is diffused and infiltrated from the steel surface in a temperature range of A1 point (863 K) or higher to obtain high nitrogen austenite in the surface layer, and then hardening is performed to form hard high nitrogen martensite. It is. In the case of the carbonitriding treatment method, the thermal strain is small because the treatment is performed at a lower temperature than the carburizing treatment, and the transformation strain is also small in a temperature range where the base material is not austenitized. In addition, it is expected that the processing time will be shorter because the processing is performed at a higher temperature than the nitriding.
As a conventional method regarding such nitronitriding treatment, for example, methods described in Patent Documents 1 to 6 have been proposed.

しかしながら、従来の浸窒処理は、浸炭に比べると温度が低いため、有効硬化層を深くすることが困難であった。   However, in the conventional carbonitriding process, it is difficult to deepen the effective hardened layer because the temperature is lower than carburizing.

本発明は上記のような課題を解決することを目的とする。
すなわち、本発明の目的は、低歪かつ有効硬化層を深くでき、かつ、浸窒処理時に発生する窒化物の制御を考慮することで、浸炭材同等の曲げ疲労強度を有することが可能な浸窒処理に適した鋼材を提供することである。
The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned problems.
That is, it is an object of the present invention to provide a low strain and deep effective hardened layer, and an immersion capable of having the same bending fatigue strength as that of a carburized material by considering the control of the nitride generated at the time of nitriding treatment. It is providing a steel material suitable for nitrogen treatment.

本発明によれば、低歪かつ有効硬化層を深くでき、浸炭材同等の曲げ疲労強度を有することが可能な浸窒処理に適した鋼材を提供することができる。   According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a steel material which is low in strain and capable of deepening the effective hardened layer, and which is capable of having a bending fatigue strength equivalent to that of a carburized material, and which is suitable for the nitriding treatment.

本発明の発明者は、(1)有効硬化層深さ、(2)焼入れ性、(3)窒化物生成量に関して、低歪かつ有効硬化層を深くでき、浸炭材同等の曲げ疲労強度を有することが可能な浸窒処理に適した鋼材の成分について調査した。   The inventor of the present invention has low strain and can deepen the effective hardened layer with respect to (1) effective hardened layer depth, (2) hardenability, and (3) nitride formation amount, and has bending fatigue strength equivalent to carburized material. It investigated about the composition of the steel material suitable for the possible nitriding treatment.

(1)有効硬化層
実用部品への負荷応力を想定した場合、内部でも破損しない程度に硬化層の深さが必要となってくる。よって、内部起点で破損する部位にとって有効硬化深さの増加は、そのまま高強度化につながる。
有効硬化層を深くするための手段として、I.処理温度を高くする、II.処理時間を長くする、III.鋼材の焼入れ性を上げる、の三種類が挙げられる。
ここでI.は温度上昇により歪が増大するため、なるべく低温で処理を実施したい。
II.生産性の観点からなるべく短時間で処理を実施したい。
III.について、これまで有効硬化深さの増加に対する鋼材成分の影響についての検討は、ほぼされていない。
(1) Effective Hardened Layer Assuming stress applied to practical parts, the depth of the hardened layer is required to such an extent that no damage occurs inside. Therefore, the increase in the effective curing depth directly leads to the increase in strength for the portion broken at the internal starting point.
As a means to deepen the effective cured layer, I.1. Raise the processing temperature, II. Increase processing time, III. There are three types to increase the hardenability of steel materials.
Here, I. Since the strain is increased by the temperature rise, it is desirable to carry out the treatment at a temperature as low as possible.
II. We want to carry out processing in as short time as possible from the viewpoint of productivity.
III. So far, the effects of steel components on the increase of effective hardening depth have not been almost considered.

(2)焼入れ性
焼入れ性は有効硬化層の深さを増大するために必要に応じて高くする必要がある。一般的に焼入れ性を向上させるためにはSi、Cr、Mn、Cu、Ni、Moなどの元素を添加する。また、添加元素の量を増やせば増やすほど焼入れ性は向上するといわれている。一方で、焼入れ性が高すぎるとマルテンサイト変態量が多くなり、歪が増大する。そのため歪軽減の観点から言えば、焼入れ性は低い方がよい。ここで、焼入れ性のジョミニー試験で測定される各水冷端からの距離はそれぞれ違う冷却速度を持っており、水冷端から遠くなるほど冷却速度は遅くなる。
(2) Hardenability The hardenability needs to be increased as necessary to increase the depth of the effective hardened layer. Generally, in order to improve the hardenability, an element such as Si, Cr, Mn, Cu, Ni, Mo, etc. is added. Further, it is said that the hardenability is improved as the amount of the additive element is increased. On the other hand, when the hardenability is too high, the amount of martensitic transformation increases and strain increases. Therefore, from the viewpoint of strain reduction, the hardenability should be low. Here, the distance from each water cooling end measured in the hardenability test has different cooling rates, and the cooling speed becomes slower as the distance from the water cooling end increases.

(3)窒化物割合
浸窒処理中に窒化物が生成すると、焼入れ性を担保するために添加していた元素が母相から奪われるため、不完全焼入れ組織が形成されたり、Nの固溶による焼入れ性の向上効果が十分に得られなかったりするため、疲労強度が低下するものと予想される。そのため、窒化物量は少ない方がよい。しかし、添加元素量と窒化物の生成量の関係および、それが疲労強度に与える影響についてはこれまでに明らかにされていない。
(3) Nitride ratio If nitride is formed during the nitriding treatment, the element added for securing the hardenability is deprived from the matrix phase, so that an incompletely quenched structure is formed or a solid solution of N is formed. It is expected that the fatigue strength is lowered because the effect of improving the hardenability by the above can not be obtained sufficiently. Therefore, the smaller the amount of nitride, the better. However, the relationship between the amount of added elements and the amount of nitride formation and the influence on the fatigue strength have not been clarified so far.

<式1について>
本発明の発明者は、JISのS15Cの中央成分対比1.4倍の有効硬化層を得る成分系を検討した。NやCの拡散深さは、処理時間に対して平方根でしか増えない。つまり、処理時間を2倍に増やすと有効硬化深さは1.4倍となる。鋼成分を制御し有効硬化深さを1.4倍に増加させるとS15C対比処理時間が半分になることに対応する。
本発明の発明者が検討したところ、I.合金元素添加量により、Nの侵入深さが変化することを明らかにした。具体的にはSiとCrは窒化物を生成するため、侵入N深さが減少する。MnはNの活量を低下させ、鋼材中のNの安定度が上がるため、侵入N深さが増加する。II.さらに同一N濃度の場合でも鋼材の焼入れ性の変化により、硬さは変化する。I.、II.の影響を考慮し、鋼材成分が有効硬化深さに与える影響を検討した。そして、式1=−0.225×Si+0.083×Mn+0.091×Cr+0.035×Cu+0.047×Ni+0.092×Moと定義した場合に、式1≧0.04を満たすと、JIS S15C対比1.4倍となる鋼材が得られることがわかった。
なお、Si、Mn、Cr、Cu、Ni、Moは、Si含有率(質量%)、Mn含有率(質量%)、Cr含有率(質量%)、Cu含有率(質量%)、Ni含有率(質量%)、Mo含有率(質量%)を意味する。また、後述するように、Si、Cr、Cu、Ni、Moは含有率がゼロである場合がある。この場合は、式1の該当する項にゼロを代入すればよい。後述する式2、式3においても同様である。
<About Formula 1>
The inventor of the present invention examined a component system for obtaining an effective cured layer 1.4 times the central component of JIS S15C. The diffusion depths of N and C increase only by the square root with respect to the processing time. That is, if the treatment time is doubled, the effective curing depth becomes 1.4 times. Controlling the steel composition and increasing the effective hardening depth by 1.4 corresponds to halving the S15C contrast processing time.
As examined by the inventor of the present invention, I.I. It was clarified that the penetration depth of N changes with the addition amount of alloy elements. Specifically, Si and Cr form nitrides, so the penetration N depth decreases. Mn lowers the activity of N and increases the stability of N in steel materials, so the penetration N depth increases. II. Furthermore, even in the case of the same N concentration, the hardness changes due to the change in the hardenability of the steel material. I. , II. The effects of steel components on the effective hardening depth were examined in consideration of the effects of And, when the equation 1 ≧ 0.04 is satisfied in the case that the equation 1 = −0.225 × Si + 0.083 × Mn + 0.091 × Cr + 0.035 × Cu + 0.047 × Ni + 0.092 × Mo is satisfied, the JIS S15 C contrast is satisfied. It turned out that the steel material which becomes 1.4 times is obtained.
In addition, Si, Mn, Cr, Cu, Ni, Mo are Si content (mass%), Mn content (mass%), Cr content (mass%), Cu content (mass%), Ni content (Mass%), Mo content (mass%) is meant. Further, as described later, the content of Si, Cr, Cu, Ni, and Mo may be zero. In this case, zero may be substituted for the corresponding term of equation 1. The same applies to Equations 2 and 3 described later.

<式2について>
薄肉部品を想定した場合、薄物部品の芯部の冷却速度はおよそジョミニー値のJ3〜J5程度であり、本発明の鋼材はこれらの冷却速度でのマルテンサイト量を減らすことで歪が大きく低減できる。
フルマルテンサイトの硬さは炭素量で整理でき、0.05〜0.3%の範囲では(60C+31)HRCと表わせる。J5値がフルマルテンサイトとなる硬さの半分(60C+31)/2以下となれば、歪に影響が大きいマルテンサイト組織が発生せず、フェライト+パーライト+少量のベイナイト組織となり、歪を十分に小さくすることができる。
このような知見に基づき、鋼材のジョミニー値J5に対する合金元素の影響を検討し、後述する式2が、式2≦(60×C+31)/2を満たす場合に、歪を小さくできることを見出した。
<About Formula 2>
When thin parts are assumed, the cooling rate of the core of thin parts is approximately J3 to J5 of the jominy value, and the steel material of the present invention can greatly reduce the strain by reducing the amount of martensite at these cooling rates. .
The hardness of full martensite can be arranged by the amount of carbon, and can be expressed as (60C + 31) HRC in the range of 0.05 to 0.3%. If the J5 value becomes half (60C + 31) / 2 or less of the hardness at which full martensite is formed, a martensitic structure having a large influence on strain does not occur, and ferrite + pearlite + a small amount of bainite structure is formed, and the strain is sufficiently small. can do.
Based on such findings, the inventors examined the influence of the alloying elements on the jominy value J5 of the steel material, and found that the strain can be reduced when the equation 2 described later satisfies the equation 2 ≦ (60 × C + 31) / 2.

<式3について>
曲げ疲労強度に対して、侵入した表層Nのうち窒化物となるN量が一定割合(22%以上)を超えると不完全焼入れ組織が形成されたり、Nの固溶による焼入れ性の向上効果が十分に得られなかったりするため、疲労強度が大きくばらつくことを明らかにし、合金成分添加量を規定した。また、SiとMnを同時添加すると、Mnも窒化物として生成することを明らかにした。
そして、式3=25.4×Si+20.3×Cr+32.8×Si×Mnとすると、式3≦22を満たす必要があることを見出した。
<About Equation 3>
If the N content to be nitrided out of the intruded surface layer N exceeds a certain percentage (22% or more) against the bending fatigue strength, an incompletely quenched structure is formed or the hardenability improvement effect by solid solution of N is In order not to be obtained sufficiently, it was clarified that the fatigue strength largely fluctuated, and the alloy component addition amount was specified. In addition, it was revealed that when Si and Mn were simultaneously added, Mn was also formed as a nitride.
And when Formula 3 = 25.4 x Si + 20.3 x Cr + 32.8 x Si x Mn, it was found that Formula 3 を 満 た す 22 needs to be satisfied.

本発明の鋼材の組成について説明する。   The composition of the steel material of the present invention will be described.

C成分の含有率は0.05〜0.25質量%であり、0.07〜0.20質量%であることが好ましい。
C成分の含有率が低すぎると、浸窒焼入後の芯部硬さが低下する傾向がある。
また、逆にC成分の含有率が高すぎると、冷間鍛造性、芯部の靭性、加工性が低下する傾向がある。また、C成分の含有率が高くなると、焼入時の膨張量が増え、歪が増加する傾向がある。
The content of the component C is 0.05 to 0.25% by mass, and preferably 0.07 to 0.20% by mass.
If the content of the C component is too low, the hardness of the core after dip quenching tends to decrease.
On the other hand, if the content of the component C is too high, the cold forgeability, the toughness of the core, and the processability tend to be lowered. In addition, when the content of the C component increases, the amount of expansion at the time of quenching increases, and the distortion tends to increase.

Si成分の含有率は0.30質量%以下であり、0.01〜0.15質量%であることが好ましい。
Siは微量でも窒化物が生成するため、Si成分の含有率が高すぎると、窒化物が形成され、疲労強度を低下する傾向があるからである。
The content rate of Si component is 0.30 mass% or less, and it is preferable that it is 0.01-0.15 mass%.
Since a small amount of Si forms nitrides, if the content of the Si component is too high, nitrides are formed and the fatigue strength tends to decrease.

Mn成分の含有率は0.61〜2.0質量%であり、0.65〜1.5質量%であることが好ましい。
Mnは浸窒処理時の有効硬化深さを向上させるために有効である。Mn成分の含有率が低すぎると、浸窒焼入時の芯部の焼入れ性が低下する傾向がある。
また、逆にMn成分の含有率が高すぎると、被削性や加工性が低下し、焼入性が上昇しすぎる傾向がある。
The content of the Mn component is 0.61 to 2.0% by mass, and preferably 0.65 to 1.5% by mass.
Mn is effective to improve the effective curing depth at the time of nitridation treatment. If the content of the Mn component is too low, the hardenability of the core during nitrocarburizing tends to decrease.
Also, conversely, if the content of the Mn component is too high, the machinability and the workability tend to be reduced, and the hardenability tends to be too high.

P成分の含有率は0.1質量%以下であり、0.05質量%以下であることが好ましい。
P成分の含有率が高すぎると、粒界割れが生じやすくなる傾向があるからである。
The content of the P component is 0.1% by mass or less, and preferably 0.05% by mass or less.
If the content of P component is too high, intergranular cracking tends to occur easily.

S成分の含有率は0.1質量%以下であり、0.05質量%以下であることが好ましい。
S成分の含有率が高すぎると、MnS系介在物が生成し、疲労強度が低下する傾向があるからである。
The content rate of S component is 0.1 mass% or less, and it is preferable that it is 0.05 mass% or less.
If the content of the S component is too high, MnS inclusions tend to be generated and the fatigue strength tends to decrease.

Cr成分の含有率は0.7質量%以下であり、0.01〜0.5質量%であることが好ましい。
Crは、浸窒処理後の有効硬化深さを増加させるのに有効な元素である。Cr成分の含有率が高すぎると、窒化物が形成されやすくなり、疲労強度がばらつきが多くなる。
The content of the Cr component is 0.7% by mass or less, preferably 0.01 to 0.5% by mass.
Cr is an element effective to increase the effective depth of hardening after carbonitriding. If the content of the Cr component is too high, nitrides are likely to be formed, and the variation in fatigue strength increases.

Al成分の含有率は10〜800ppmであり、50〜500ppmであることが好ましい。
Al成分の含有率が低すぎると結晶粒粗大化を防止するAlNが十分な量が析出せず、結晶粒粗大化を発生しやすくなるからである。
逆にAl成分の含有率が高すぎると、粗大なAl23系介在物が生じて強度低下を招く傾向があるからである。
The content of the Al component is 10 to 800 ppm, preferably 50 to 500 ppm.
If the content of the Al component is too low, a sufficient amount of AlN for preventing the coarsening of the crystal grains is not precipitated, and the coarsening of the crystal grains is easily generated.
On the other hand, if the content of the Al component is too high, coarse Al 2 O 3 inclusions tend to be generated to cause a reduction in strength.

N成分の含有率は10〜300ppmであり、10〜250ppmであることが好ましい。
N成分の含有率が低すぎると結晶粒粗大化を防止するAlNが十分な量が析出せず、結晶粒粗大化を発生しやすくなるからである。
逆にN成分の含有率が高すぎると、鋳造時に空隙(密に埋まっていない部分)が発生する傾向があるからである。
The content of the N component is 10 to 300 ppm, preferably 10 to 250 ppm.
If the content of the N component is too low, a sufficient amount of AlN for preventing the coarsening of the crystal grains is not precipitated, and the coarsening of the crystal grains is easily generated.

Moreover, the deposition state of the nitride of surface layer was confirmed by magnification of 2,000 using FE-EPMA using the sample after mirror polishing.

第2表に示した有効硬化深さと式1の計算結果との関係を図5に示す。
図5から、式1の値が0.04以上であると、S15Cの1.4倍の有効硬化深さとなることが理解される。なお、1.4倍は処理時間にすると、同一有効硬化深さを得るためにJIS 15C対比処理時間が半分になることに相当する。
したがって本発明の鋼材は、短時間(3〜4h程度)で、必要な有効硬化深さを得ることができる鋼材といえる。
The relationship between the effective curing depth shown in Table 2 and the calculation result of Equation 1 is shown in FIG.
It is understood from FIG. 5 that when the value of Formula 1 is 0.04 or more, the effective curing depth is 1.4 times that of S15C. In addition, if processing time is made into 1.4 time, in order to obtain the same effective hardening depth, it is equivalent to half processing time compared with JIS 15C.
Accordingly, the steel material of the present invention can be said to be a steel material capable of obtaining a necessary effective hardening depth in a short time (about 3 to 4 hours).

第1表に示したロックウェル硬さ(J5)と真円からの変形量(歪み)との関係を、図6に示す。
図6からロックウェル硬さ(J5)がおよそ20HRC以下であると変形量が少ないことが分かる。フルマルテンサイトの硬さは炭素量で整理でき、0.05〜0.3%の範囲では(60C+31)HRCと表すことができる。一般的に、ロックウェル硬さ(J5)がフルマルテンサイトとなる半分((60C+31)/2)以下(0.15%の場合は20HRC)であれば歪(変形量)に影響が大きいマルテンサイト組織が生成せず、フェライト+パーライト+少量のベイナイト組織となる。すなわち、式2≦((60C+31)/2)を満たすのであれば、マルテンサイト量を減らすことができ、歪を大幅に低下させることができる。また、比較例14と15は、それぞれ汎用肌焼鋼であるSCR415とSCR420であるが、それらに対して大幅に歪が低下していることがわかる。
実機の薄肉部品を想定した場合、薄物部品の芯部の冷却速度はおよそジョミニー値のJ3〜J5程度であり、本発明の鋼材はこれらの冷却速度でのマルテンサイト量を減らすことで歪が大きく低減できる。
The relationship between the Rockwell hardness (J5) shown in Table 1 and the amount of deformation (distortion) from a perfect circle is shown in FIG.
It can be seen from FIG. 6 that the amount of deformation is small when the Rockwell hardness (J5) is approximately 20 HRC or less. The hardness of full martensite can be arranged by the amount of carbon, and can be expressed as (60C + 31) HRC in the range of 0.05 to 0.3%. In general, martensite having a large influence on strain (deformation amount) if Rockwell hardness (J5) is half ((60C + 31) / 2) or less (20 HRC in the case of 0.15%) at which full martensite is achieved No structure is formed, resulting in ferrite + pearlite + small amount of bainite structure. That is, if the formula 2 ≦ ((60C + 31) / 2) is satisfied, the amount of martensite can be reduced, and the strain can be significantly reduced. Moreover, although comparative example 14 and 15 are SCR 415 and SCR 420 which are general purpose case-hardening steels, respectively, it turns out that distortion is falling sharply to them.
Assuming thin-walled parts of actual machines, the cooling speed of the core of thin parts is approximately J3 to J5 of the jominy value, and the steel of the present invention has a large strain by reducing the amount of martensite at these cooling speeds. It can be reduced.

第2表に示した表面N濃度および窒化物析出量から、窒化物析出割合(=窒化物析出量/表面N濃度×100(%))を求めた。求められた窒化物析出割合と疲労強度との関係を、図7に示す。
図7から、表層Nのうち窒化物となったNの割合が22%以上となると、疲労強度のばらつきが大きくなっていることが分かる。組織写真(SEM2000倍、図8)から、窒化物の生成により、焼入れ性を担保するために添加していた元素が母相から奪われ、固溶Nの低減により形成された不完全焼入れ組織が確認される。さらにFE−EPMA(2000倍、図9)から窒化物の生成を見てとることができる。疲労強度が低下した試験片は、すべてはこの様な不完全焼入組織と多量の窒化物生成が確認され、疲労強度との因果関係が明らかになった。
本発明の鋼材は、窒化物析出量を抑制しているため、疲労強度のばらつきや低下が起こらない鋼材であるといえる。
From the surface N concentration and the nitride deposition amount shown in Table 2, the nitride deposition ratio (= nitride deposition amount / surface N concentration × 100 (%)) was determined. The relationship between the nitride precipitation ratio thus determined and the fatigue strength is shown in FIG.
It can be seen from FIG. 7 that when the ratio of N which has become nitride in the surface layer N is 22% or more, the variation in fatigue strength is large. From the microstructure photograph (SEM 2000 times, FIG. 8), due to the formation of nitride, the element added for securing the hardenability is deprived from the matrix phase, and the incompletely quenched structure formed by the reduction of solid solution N is It is confirmed. Furthermore, the formation of nitride can be seen from FE-EPMA (2000 ×, FIG. 9). All the specimens with reduced fatigue strength were confirmed to have such a partially quenched structure and a large amount of nitride formation, revealing a causal relationship with the fatigue strength.
Since the steel material of the present invention suppresses the nitride precipitation amount, it can be said that the steel material of the present invention is a steel material which does not cause variation or reduction in fatigue strength.
