Description

  The present invention relates to an alloy-saving high-purity ferritic stainless steel sheet excellent in oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength in a high-temperature environment of, for example, 400 ° C. or higher and 1050 ° C. or lower and a method for manufacturing the same. Specifically, the present invention relates to high-purity ferritic stainless steel excellent in oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength suitable for constituting members such as heating equipment, combustion equipment, and automobile exhaust systems.

  Ferritic stainless steel is used in a wide range of fields such as kitchen equipment, home appliances, and electronic equipment. Recent improvements in refining technology have enabled extremely low carbon, nitrogenization, reduction of impurity elements such as P and S, and addition of stabilizing elements such as Nb and Ti to improve ferritic stainless steel with improved weather resistance and workability Steel (hereinafter referred to as high-purity ferritic stainless steel) is being applied to a wide range of applications. This is because the high-purity ferritic stainless steel is more economical than the austenitic stainless steel containing a large amount of Ni, whose price has been increasing significantly in recent years.

  In the heat-resistant steel field where oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength are required, high-purity ferritic stainless steels such as SUS430J1L, SUS436J1L, and SUH21 are standardized (JIS G 4312). As represented by 19Cr-0.5Nb for SUS430J1L, 18Cr-1Mo for SUS436J1L, and 18Cr-3Al for SUH21, it is characterized by the addition of rare elements Nb and Mo, or a large amount of Al. Although Al-containing high-purity ferritic stainless steel represented by SUH21 has excellent oxidation resistance, there are problems in workability, weldability, and manufacturability associated with low toughness.

  Various studies have been made on the above-described problems of Al-containing high-purity ferrite. For example, in Patent Document 1, Cr: 13 to 20%, Al: less than 1.5 to 2.5%, Si: 0.3 to 0.8%, Ti: 3 × (C + N) to 20 × (C + N An Al-containing heat-resistant ferritic stainless steel sheet excellent in workability and oxidation resistance, and a method for producing the same are disclosed. In Patent Document 2, Cr: 8 to 25%, C: 0.03% or less, N: 0.03% or less, Si: 0.1 to 2.5%, Al: 4% or less, A = Cr + 5 ( Ferritic stainless steel having an A value defined as Si + Al) in the range of 13 to 60 and excellent in steam oxidation resistance and thermal fatigue properties is disclosed. The stainless steels disclosed in these Patent Documents 1 and 2 are characterized by a combined addition with Si by reducing the amount of Al added. Since Si is an element that lowers the toughness of steel, there remains a problem with the manufacturability of these steels. The stainless steel disclosed in Patent Document 3 is Cr: 11-21%, Al: 0.01-0.1%, Si: 0.8-1.5%, Ti: 0.05-0. 3%, Nb: 0.1 to 0.4%, C: 0.015% or less, N: 0.015% or less, 2% or less of W is added as needed to obtain high temperature strength . The stainless steel disclosed in these patent documents secures oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength by reducing the amount of Al and adding Si or a rare element W.

  As means for solving the above problems, there is considered a method for improving oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength by using a trace element without depending on high alloying. Conventionally, the use of rare earth elements is known as a trace element that dramatically improves oxidation resistance. For example, Patent Document 4 does not rely on Si or Al, but rare earth elements to Cr: 12 to 32% ferritic stainless steel: 0.2% or less, Y: 0.5% or less, Hf: 0.5 % Or less, Zr: 1% or less of 1% or less, and adding them as 1% or less is disclosed. As for the high temperature strength, Patent Document 5 discloses a ferritic stainless steel excellent in high temperature strength containing trace elements of Sn and Sb and a method for producing the same. Most steels disclosed in Patent Document 5 are low Cr steels with Cr: 10-12%, and high Cr steels with Cr: more than 12% are combined with V, Mo, etc. in order to ensure high temperature strength. ing. As an effect of Sn and Sb, improvement of high-temperature strength is cited, and no examination or description relating to the oxidation resistance targeted by the present invention is found.

So far, the inventors have disclosed a high-purity ferritic stainless steel that has improved corrosion resistance and workability by adding a small amount of Sn, regardless of the high alloying of Cr and Mo, from the viewpoint of resource saving and economy. . The stainless steels disclosed in Patent Documents 6 and 7 reduce C, N, Si, Mn, and P with Cr: 13-22%, Sn: 0.001-1%, and Al: 0.005-0.05. % High purity ferritic stainless steel to which a stabilizing element of Ti or Nb is added as necessary.
However, these patent documents do not discuss the influence of a small amount of Sn and Al addition on the oxidation resistance and high temperature strength which are the object of the present invention.
Patent Document 8 contains Cr: 11-22%, Al: 1.0-6.0%, reduces C, N, S, Sn: 0.001-1.0%, Nb : Ferritic stainless steel containing one or more elements selected from the group consisting of 0.001 to 0.70% and V: 0.001 to 0.50% is disclosed and is exposed to high-temperature steam Although prevention of evaporation of Cr and / or its compounds in the environment is disclosed, the effects of addition of Al and Sn on oxidation resistance and high temperature strength are not disclosed.

As described above, in high-purity ferritic stainless steel, although addition of Al or combined addition of Al and Si is effective to ensure oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength, problems remain in manufacturability and weldability. Also, in order to ensure the above characteristics regardless of the high alloying of Al or Si, it is necessary to use very expensive rare elements such as Nb, Mo, W and rare earth. On the other hand, high-purity ferritic stainless steel added with a small amount of Sn is also disclosed from the viewpoint of resource saving and economical efficiency, but has not yet achieved oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength.
Therefore, the object of the present invention is to utilize Sn addition to prevent oxidation without relying on excessive alloying of Al or Si, which impedes manufacturability and weldability, or addition of rare elements such as Nb, Mo, W, and rare earths. It is an object of the present invention to provide an alloy-saving high-purity ferritic stainless steel sheet with improved properties and high-temperature strength and a method for producing the same.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have conducted intensive research on the effect on oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength, focusing on the addition of Sn and the action of Al in high-purity ferritic stainless steel. Knowledge has been obtained and the present invention has been made.

(A) Sn is an element effective for increasing the high-temperature strength, and the addition of Nb, Mo, and W can be reduced by adding Sn. It has been found that a Cr amount of 16% or more is effective for exhibiting the effect of improving the oxidation resistance in addition to the high temperature strength by the addition of Sn. Although there are many unclear points about such an effect of improving oxidation resistance, the mechanism of its action is presumed based on experimental facts as described below.

(B) Sn-added 16Cr steel (hereinafter referred to as Sn-added 16Cr steel) and heat-resistant stainless steel described in paragraph [0003]: 19Cr-0.5Nb steel and 18Cr-1Mo steel in an atmospheric continuous oxidation test at 950 ° C. and 200 hr. Went. In 19Cr-0.5Nb steel and 18Cr-1Mo steel, the peeling of the oxide film begins to progress, whereas in the case of Sn-added 16Cr steel, the stability of the high protective film is eliminated without causing abnormal oxidation or peeling of the oxide film. showed that.

(C) Detailed analysis of the oxide film in Sn-added 16Cr steel revealed that Sn was not present in the oxide film, and the Cr concentration of the oxide film was higher than that of 19Cr-0.5Nb steel or 18Cr-1Mo steel. . That is, the addition of Sn showed an action of increasing the Cr concentration in the chromia coating (Cr ₂ O ₃ ) and suppressing the penetration of Fe, Mn, Ti, etc. into the oxide coating that leads to the destruction of Cr ₂ O ₃ . . Due to the effect of such Sn addition, oxidation resistance and high temperature strength equal to or higher than those of the above heat resistant stainless steels: 19Cr-0.5Nb steel and 18Cr-1Mo steel can be achieved with the alloy-saving 16Cr steel.

(D) It has been found that the oxidation resistance of the above-described Sn-added 16Cr steel is stably expressed by adding 0.05% or more of Al. When the amount of Al is 0.8% or less, although a continuous oxide film of Al is not generated, it is considered that the oxygen partial pressure at the steel interface is lowered to contribute to the improvement of the stability of Cr ₂ O ₃ . Although there are still many unclear points about such oxidation resistance improvement by Sn + Al, it seems that the effect of Sn addition is superimposed on a small amount of Al. Further, when the Al addition amount exceeds 0.8%, the formation of a continuous oxide film of Al proceeds, and thereby the effect of improving the oxidation resistance by the alumina film exceeding the chromia film can be expressed. That is, the oxidation resistance of the above heat resistant stainless steel: SUH21 can be achieved with a smaller amount of Cr and Al.

(E) In order to improve the oxidation resistance described above, it is effective to increase the purity of steel by reducing C, N, P, and S, and to add a stabilizing element such as Nb or Ti.

(F) In the heating of the slab during hot rolling, the extraction temperature after heating secures the amount of scale generated for removing the haze and the inclusions on the surface of the slab that obstruct the surface properties, and the fine TiCS Is reduced to solid solution S that induces abnormal oxidation, and the temperature is set to suppress the generation of MnS and CaS that can be the starting point of abnormal oxidation. For Sn-added steel with a Cr content of 16% or more, it is effective to set the temperature to 1100 to 1200 ° C.

(G) The coiling after hot rolling is performed at a temperature that ensures steel toughness and suppresses internal oxides and grain boundary oxidation that cause deterioration of surface properties. For Sn-added steel with a Cr content of 16% or more, it is effective to set the temperature to 500 to 600 ° C. Moreover, it is Sn or Cr to carry out hot-rolled sheet annealing at 900 ° C. or more to dissolve a stabilizing element such as Nb or Ti and to gradually cool a temperature range of 550 to 850 ° C. at 10 ° C./second or less It is effective in enhancing the high temperature strength and oxidation resistance by promoting the reduction of grain boundary segregation and the formation of fine carbonitrides.

In addition, it is possible to obtain an alloy-saving type high-purity ferritic stainless steel sheet having a high temperature strength that is equal to or higher than that of existing heat-resistant steel.

  Hereinafter, each requirement of the present invention will be described in detail. In addition, "%" display of the content of each element means "mass%".

(I) First, the reasons for limiting the components of the steel sheet will be described below.
Since C deteriorates the oxidation resistance, the lower the content, the better. Therefore, the upper limit is made 0.03%. However, excessive reduction leads to an increase in refining costs, so the lower limit is made 0.001%. Preferably, it is 0.002 to 0.01% in consideration of acid resistance and manufacturing cost.

In addition to being effective as a deoxidizing element, Si is an element that improves oxidation resistance. In order to ensure the oxidation resistance of the deoxidizer and the present invention, the lower limit is made 0.01%.
However, excessive addition causes a decrease in steel toughness and workability, so the upper limit is made 2%. Preferably, considering the effect and manufacturability, 0.05 to 1%. A more preferable range is 0.1 to 0.6%.

  Since Mn is an element that inhibits oxidation resistance, the smaller the content, the better. The upper limit is made 1.5% from the viewpoint of suppressing the decrease in oxidation resistance. However, excessive reduction leads to an increase in refining costs, so the lower limit is made 0.01%. Preferably, considering the oxidation resistance and the manufacturing cost, the content is made 0.05 to 0.5%.

  Since P is an element that impairs manufacturability and weldability, the smaller the content, the better. The upper limit is made 0.05% from the viewpoint of suppressing manufacturability and weldability deterioration. However, excessive reduction leads to an increase in refining costs, so the lower limit is made 0.005%. Preferably, considering the manufacturing cost, the content is made 0.01 to 0.04%.

  Since S degrades oxidation resistance and hot workability, the smaller the content, the better. Therefore, the upper limit is made 0.01%. However, excessive reduction leads to an increase in refining costs, so the lower limit is made 0.0001. Preferably, considering the oxidation resistance and manufacturing cost, the content is made 0.0002 to 0.002%.

  Cr is a constituent element of the high purity ferritic stainless steel of the present invention, and is an essential element for ensuring the oxidation resistance and high temperature strength targeted by the present invention by adding Sn. In order to ensure the oxidation resistance and high temperature strength of the present invention, the lower limit is made 16%. The upper limit is 30% from the viewpoint of manufacturability. However, from the economical efficiency compared with SUH21, it is preferably 16 to 22%. In consideration of performance and alloy cost, it is more preferably 16 to 18%.

  N, like C, degrades the acid resistance, so the lower the content, the better. Therefore, the upper limit is made 0.03%. However, excessive reduction leads to an increase in refining costs, so the lower limit is made 0.001%. Preferably, it is 0.005 to 0.015% in consideration of oxidation resistance and manufacturing cost.

  In addition to being an effective element as a deoxidizing element, Al is an essential element for enhancing the target oxidation resistance of the present invention. The lower limit is over 0.8% in order to obtain the effect of improving the oxidation resistance of the alumina film with a relatively small amount of Al superimposed on the addition of Sn. The upper limit is 3% from the viewpoint of manufacturability. However, excessive addition causes deterioration of steel toughness and weldability, so it is preferably more than 0.8% to 2%. From the economical efficiency compared with SUH21, it is more preferably 1 to 2%.

  Sn is an essential element for ensuring the target oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength of the present invention without resorting to excessive alloying of Al or Si and addition of rare elements such as Nb, Mo, W, and rare earths. It is. In order to obtain the target oxidation resistance and high temperature strength of the present invention, the lower limit is made 0.01%. The upper limit is 1% from the viewpoint of manufacturability. However, from the economical efficiency compared with SUH21, it is preferably 0.1 to 0.6%. In consideration of performance and alloy cost, it is more preferably 0.2 to 0.5%.

  Nb and Ti are elements that improve oxidation resistance by the action of a stabilizing element that fixes C and N, and are added as necessary. When added, the content is set to 0.03% or more where the effect is exhibited. However, excessive addition leads to a decrease in manufacturability accompanying an increase in alloy costs and a recrystallization temperature, so the upper limit is made 0.5%. A preferable range is 0.05 to 0.5% for one or two of Nb and Ti in consideration of effects, alloy costs, and manufacturability. A more preferable range is 0.1 to 0.3%.

  Ni, Cu, Mo, V, Zr, and Co are effective elements for increasing the high-temperature strength due to a synergistic effect with Sn, and are added as necessary. When Ni, Cu, and Mo are added, the effect is 0.15% or more. When V, Zr, and Co are added, they are set to 0.01% or more at which the effect is exhibited. However, excessive addition leads to an increase in alloy costs and a decrease in manufacturability, so the upper limit is 0.5% for both.

  Mg forms Mg oxide together with Al in molten steel and acts as a deoxidizer, and also acts as a crystallization nucleus of TiN. TiN becomes a solidification nucleus of the ferrite phase in the solidification process, and by facilitating crystallization of TiN, the ferrite phase can be finely formed during solidification. By making the solidified structure finer, it is possible to prevent surface defects caused by coarse solidified structures such as ridging and roping of products, and to improve workability. When adding, it is made 0.0001% to express these effects. However, if it exceeds 0.005%, manufacturability deteriorates, so the upper limit is made 0.005%. Preferably, considering the manufacturability, the content is made 0.0003 to 0.002%.

  B is an element that improves hot workability and secondary workability, and addition to high purity ferritic stainless steel is effective. When adding, it is made 0.0003% or more which expresses these effects. However, excessive addition causes a decrease in elongation, so the upper limit is made 0.005%. Preferably, considering the material cost and workability, the content is made 0.0005 to 0.002%.

  Ca is an element that improves hot workability and steel cleanliness, and is added as necessary. When adding, it is made 0.0003% or more which expresses these effects. However, excessive addition leads to a decrease in productivity and a decrease in oxidation resistance due to water-soluble inclusions such as CaS, so the upper limit is made 0.005%. Preferably, considering the manufacturability and oxidation resistance, the content is made 0.0003 to 0.0015%.

  Zr, La, Y, Hf, and REM have the effects of improving hot workability and steel cleanliness and remarkably improving oxidation resistance and hot workability, and may be added as necessary. . When added, the content is set to 0.001% or more where the effect is exhibited. However, excessive addition leads to an increase in alloy cost and a decrease in manufacturability, so the upper limit is made 0.1%. Preferably, considering the effect, economy and manufacturability, it is 1 type or 2 types or more, and 0.001 to 0.05% respectively.

(II) Next, the reason for limitation regarding the preferable manufacturing method of a steel plate is demonstrated below.
A preferred production method is described in order to obtain the oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength equal to or higher than those of SUH21 having the components described in the item (I).
The steel sheet of the present invention is a steel having the component composition (I) melted by a conventional method using a converter, an electric furnace, or a secondary refining device, and slab by a continuous casting method or a steel ingot method. (Slabs, steel slabs) After this slab is heated in a heating furnace, it is hot-rolled and wound into a coil as a hot-rolled steel sheet to form a hot-rolled steel sheet, or hot-rolled sheet if necessary After annealing, it is further subjected to cold rolling, annealing, and pickling treatment to form a cold rolled steel sheet.

  The reason why the extraction temperature after heating the slab (slab) in hot rolling is 1100 ° C. or more is to secure a scale generation amount for removing inclusions on the surface of the slab that induces scab. The scale generation amount is a scale thickness of 0.1 mm or more. The upper limit of the extraction temperature is set to 1250 ° C. in order to stabilize TiCS by suppressing the generation of MnS and CaS that are abnormal oxidation starting points. Considering the target oxidation resistance of the present invention, the extraction temperature is preferably 1100 to 1200 ° C.

  The reason for setting the coiling temperature after hot rolling to 600 ° C. or lower is to ensure steel toughness and to suppress internal oxides and grain boundary oxidation that cause deterioration of surface properties. Moreover, when it exceeds 600 degreeC, the precipitate containing Ti and P tends to precipitate, and there exists a possibility of leading to a fall of oxidation resistance. If the coiling temperature is less than 400 ° C., water injection after hot rolling may cause defective shape of the hot-rolled steel strip, and may induce surface flaws when the coil is unfolded or passed. In consideration of the target oxidation resistance of the present invention, the winding temperature is preferably 500 to 600 ° C.

  After the hot rolling, the hot-rolled sheet annealing may be omitted, and one cold rolling or two or more cold rolling sandwiching the intermediate annealing may be performed. However, in addition to Sn and Cr, it is preferable to perform hot-rolled sheet annealing at 900 ° C. or higher in order to increase the high-temperature strength targeted by the present invention by solid solution strengthening of Nb, Ti, Ni, Cu, or Mo. The upper limit of the hot-rolled sheet annealing temperature is preferably set to 1050 ° C. in consideration of the decrease in surface properties and pickling descaling properties.

  When the cooling rate of the hot-rolled sheet is set to 10 ° C./second or less in the temperature range of 550 to 850 ° C., the grain boundary segregation of Sn and Cr is reduced, so that the solid solution is made uniform, and fine carbonitride generation Is effective in improving high temperature strength and oxidation resistance. The cooling rate is preferably 5 ° C./second or less in order to promote fine precipitation. The lower limit is not particularly specified, but is 0.01 ° C./second in order to suppress coarsening of the carbonitride.

  The conditions for cold rolling are not particularly specified. The finish annealing after cold rolling is preferably set to 1000 ° C. or less in consideration of the surface properties. The lower limit is preferably set to 800 ° C. at which recrystallization is completed in the steel sheet of the present invention. The pickling method is not particularly specified, and it should be carried out by a method commonly used in industry. For example, alkaline salt bath immersion + electrolytic pickling + nitric hydrofluoric acid immersion and electrolytic pickling are performed by neutral salt electrolysis or nitric acid electrolysis.

  Examples of the present invention will be described below.

A ferritic stainless steel having the components shown in Table 1 is melted and hot rolled at an extraction temperature of 1180 to 1250 ° C. from a heating furnace, and a sheet thickness of 3.0 to 6.0 mm at a winding temperature of 500 to 730 ° C. A hot-rolled steel sheet was obtained. The hot-rolled steel sheet was annealed and cold-rolled twice, sandwiching the intermediate annealing or once, to produce a cold-rolled steel sheet having a thickness of 1.0 to 2.0 mm. All the obtained cold-rolled steel sheets were subjected to finish annealing at a temperature of 850 to 1050 ° C. at which recrystallization was completed.
The components of the steel were also carried out in the range defined by the present invention (the component of the present invention) and the other range (comparative component). Manufacturing conditions were also carried out under the preferable conditions (invention examples) limited in the present invention and other conditions (comparative examples). In the conventional example, commercially available SUH21 (18% Cr-3% Al) was used.

Various test pieces were sampled from the obtained steel sheet and subjected to the following tests to investigate and evaluate the characteristics of the steel sheet.
The high temperature strength (TS, 0.2% PS) was determined by a high temperature tensile test by collecting a tensile test piece having a parallel part length of 40 mm and a width of 12.5 mm from the rolling direction. The high temperature tensile test was performed at 800 ° C., and the tensile speed was 0.09 mm / min up to 0.2% proof stress, and thereafter 3 mm / min.
The oxidation resistance was evaluated by taking a 20 mm × 25 mm test piece and subjecting the front and back surfaces and end surfaces to a wet # 600 polishing finish in the atmosphere at 1050 ° C. for 200 hours. The evaluation index was (i) peeling of the surface film and (ii) occurrence of abnormal oxidation. The peeling of the surface film in (i) is a change in the color tone generated in a dot-like manner, and the abnormal oxidation in (ii) is confirmed to be a lumpy oxidation form mainly composed of Fe oxide due to destruction of the protective film on the surface. Was the case. Under this continuous oxidation test condition, SUH21 (18Cr-3Al), which was a conventional example, showed a partial change in the color tone of the surface film and accompanying peeling, even without abnormal oxidation. Therefore, the object of the present invention is to have an oxidation resistance that does not cause abnormal oxidation in the atmospheric oxidation at 1050 ° C. for 200 hours, and a high temperature strength equal to or higher than that of the conventional example (0.2% P. at 800 ° C.). S ≧ 45 MPa, TS ≧ 60 MPa).

Table 2 summarizes the test results.
From Table 2, test numbers 1, 3, 5, 6, and 9 to 13 are high purity ferritic stainless steels that satisfy all of the components specified in the present invention and preferred production methods (hot rolling conditions and hot rolled sheet annealing conditions). It is. These steel plates have an alumina coating and exhibit oxidation resistance equal to or higher than that of the conventional example SUH21, and are compatible with high temperature strength.

  Test Nos. 2, 4, and 7 have the components specified in the present invention, and partly or completely deviate from the preferred production methods (hot rolling conditions, hot rolled sheet annealing conditions) of the present invention. However, these steel sheets have high temperature strength and oxidation resistance equivalent to SUS21 which is the target of the present invention. Test Nos. 8, 11, and 14 have a larger amount of C and N than the steels of the other invention examples, and although the present invention is out of the high purity suitable for the present invention described in paragraph [0014], the present invention. This is a case where the composition has a composition of the above range and has the target characteristics of the present invention. In Test Nos. 11 and 14, although the high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance targeted by the present invention are obtained, the Al content exceeds 2%, and the weldability and toughness are slightly inferior in the examples of the present invention.

  Although test numbers 15-20 are implementing the preferable manufacturing method (hot-rolling conditions, hot-rolled sheet annealing conditions) of this invention, it remove | deviates from the component of this invention. These steel sheets did not achieve the high temperature strength and oxidation resistance targeted by the present invention.

  FIG. 1 shows the relationship between the Cr, Sn, and Al amounts of the steel of the present invention and the oxidation resistance. “O” indicates that the target oxidation resistance of the present invention was obtained, and “x” indicates that the evaluation of oxidation resistance is equal to or less than that of the comparative steel. From this result, in order to obtain good oxidation resistance in addition to high-temperature strength by adding Sn, it is important to adjust the component ranges (Cr, Sn, Al) defined in the present invention.

  According to the present invention, oxidation resistance by utilizing a small amount of Sn addition without relying on excessive alloying of Al or Si which impedes manufacturability or weldability, or addition of rare elements such as Nb, Mo, W, rare earth, etc. It is possible to obtain an alloy-saving high-purity ferritic stainless steel sheet with improved properties and high-temperature strength equal to or better than those of existing heat-resistant steel.
