TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to high-toughness spheroidal graphite cast iron. [Problems to be Solved by Prior Art and Invention] Spheroidal graphite cast iron FCD37 or F having a conventional ferrite material
CD40 has some elongation and high impact value, but low impact value at low temperature. To improve these, a method of adding Ni is disclosed in
33897 and the like. However, since Si is 2.0% or more in this invention, at least 1.7 kgf at -15 ° C.
Only an impact value of −m / cm 2 can be obtained. Further, cast iron containing spheroidal graphite obtained by adding a ferroalloy containing Bi to the molten metal and inoculating it is disclosed in JP-A-58-45311.
No. 6,086,045. However, this one also has a cast iron content of 2.2% or more after inoculation.
Since it contains, the hardness may increase, the elongation may decrease, the impact value may decrease, and particularly, the impact value may decrease at an extremely low temperature. Recently, automobile and industrial cast parts are often used even at a low temperature of about -40 ° C, and a high impact value is required even at such a low temperature. Therefore, the present inventors have improved the elongation and the impact value by decreasing the Si content and adding a small amount of Bi to increase the number of graphite particles to 300 pieces / mm 2 or more. Further, in the above invention, ferritizing annealing is performed in the examples on condition that the ferrite structure is used.
In order to reduce the manufacturing cost, it is most preferable to use the as-cast condition without annealing. In the present invention, the number of graphite particles is increased to reduce the pearlite due to the addition of a small amount of Bi, and even if the heat treatment is not performed, or even if the heat treatment is performed, a sufficient elongation and impact value can be obtained by the heat treatment at a low temperature and a short time. The present inventors have completed the present invention by finding that they can be secured. Needless to say, higher annealing and toughness can be obtained by annealing to obtain a ferrite structure. An object of the present invention is to improve elongation and impact value, particularly impact value at low temperature, and to reduce the manufacturing cost by omitting heat treatment or even performing heat treatment at low temperature and short time even if it is performed. Is provided. [Means for Solving the Problems] The spheroidal graphite cast iron of the present invention contains C: 3.0 to 4.0% Si: 1.5 to less than 2.0% by weight% Mn: <0.3% P: <0.03% Cr: <0.10% Mg : 0.02 to 0.06% CE value (carbon equivalent = C + 1/3 x (Si + P)): 3.9 to 4.6% It consists of residual iron and inevitable impurities, and 0.005 to 0.03% Bi is added to the molten metal having the above composition. Simultaneously with or after addition of Bi, inoculation is performed to set the number of graphite particles to 300 pieces / mm 2 or more, and the impact value at −40 ° C. to 1.5 kgf-m / cm 2 or more. It is characterized by being 0.0015 to 0.150%. Next, the reason for limiting the numerical values will be described. If C is less than 3.0%, castability will be poor and pearlite will increase due to a decrease in the number of graphite particles. On the other hand, if it exceeds 4.0%, quiche graphite tends to be produced, and the strength is reduced. If the content of Si is less than 1.5%, carbides are easily precipitated, and the impact value and elongation decrease. On the other hand, if it exceeds 2.0%, the impact value and elongation decrease due to the influence of silicoferrite. When Mn exceeds 0.3%, the amount of pearlite increases and the impact value and elongation decrease. When P exceeds 0.03%, impact value and elongation decrease due to the influence of steadite. If the Cr content exceeds 0.1%, carbides are easily precipitated, and the impact value and elongation decrease. If Mg is less than 0.02%, the graphite will not be spheroidized, and if it exceeds 0.06%, not only are sink marks and carbides easily generated, but also it is economically disadvantageous. When the CE value is less than 3.9%, carbides are easily generated, and castability is also deteriorated. If it exceeds 4.6%, quiche graphite is likely to be produced. If Bi has a residual content of less than 0.0015%, the effect of increasing the number of graphite particles is reduced, and as a result, cementite is generated in the as-cast structure. Also, when the residual content exceeds 0.0150%, the effect of inhibiting Bi spheroidization of graphite appears, and the spheroidization rate of graphite is increased.
It becomes 70% or less and various mechanical properties deteriorate. Bi has a low melt yield rate in molten spheroidal graphite cast iron, and its fluctuation is large.
In order to reach 15 to 0.0150%, add 0.005 to 0.030
Must be set to%. If the number of graphite particles is less than 300 pcs / mm 2 , the distance between the graphites will increase, and pearlite will increase, resulting in a decrease in impact value and elongation. [Operation] The present invention can obtain as-cast spheroidal graphite cast iron having high elongation, impact value, and particularly high impact value at -40 ° C. Further, a higher impact value and elongation can be obtained by performing a ferrite annealing heat treatment. [Example 1] FIGS. 1 (a), (b), (c) and (d) show microscopic structures. It can be seen that the material of the present invention shown in FIG. 1 (a) has a large number of graphite particles and a large amount of ferrite. Compared with this, the normal FCD40 shown in Fig. 1 (b) has a small number of graphite particles and a large amount of pearlite. In addition, the low Si% shown in Fig. 1 (c)
FCD40 has a small number of graphite particles and has an extremely large amount of perlite. It can be seen that the normal FCD40 shown in FIG. 1 (d) to which Bi is added has an increased number of graphite particles and an increased amount of ferrite. 2 and 3 show mechanical properties. The tensile strength of the material of the present invention is 43.5 kgf / mm 2 , the proof stress is 27.2 kgf / mm 2 , and the elongation is 23.8.
%, The impact value at room temperature is 2.23kgf-m / cm 2 , the impact value at -40 ℃ is 1.81kgf-m / cm 2 , and the tensile strength and proof stress are
Although lower than FCD40, good elongation and impact values, especially at -40 ° C, are obtained. In addition, the FCD40 with low Si has a high tensile strength and yield strength due to the large amount of pearlite in the microstructure, but the elongation and the impact value are significantly low. Ordinary Si% with Bi added
In the FCD, graphite has a fine structure and a large amount of ferrite in the microscopic structure. However, compared with the material of the present invention having low Si, the FCD has elongation and a low impact resistance. In particular, no remarkable improvement in the low temperature impact value at -40 ° C was observed. As described above, it is understood that the material of the present invention is an extremely superior material as compared with the conventional material or the material obtained by reducing the Si content or adding Bi. It is also understood that excellent materials can be obtained without heat treatment. [Effects of the Invention] As is clear from the above description, the spheroidal graphite cast iron of the present invention has a low Si value, and by adding a trace amount of Bi, heat treatment is performed without or with heat treatment. As a result, by heat treatment at low temperature for a short time, the number of graphite particles increases, the ferrite ratio improves, pearlite decreases, sufficient elongation and impact value can be secured, and the adverse effect of silico-ferrite, that is, hardness It is possible to reduce the rise in temperature, the decrease in elongation, the decrease in the impact value, especially the decrease in the impact value at an extremely low temperature of about -40 ° C. Also, as mentioned above, it has excellent tensile strength, elongation and impact value in the as-cast state, but when heat-treated, it has more excellent elongation, impact value, especially impact value at low temperature compared to the as-cast material. Is improved. That is, it has a remarkable effect in improving the mechanical properties of spheroidal graphite cast iron and reducing the manufacturing cost.
