Description
本発明は、ダクタイル鋳鉄などの黒鉛粒数を増加させるための鋳鉄用接種剤に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an inoculant for cast iron for increasing the number of graphite grains such as ductile cast iron.
従来から黒鉛粒数を増加させるための鋳鉄用接種剤としては、母合金のなかに硫黄と黒鉛球状化元素との化合物を含有することを特徴とし、さらに詳細には、硫黄と化合したマグネシウムとの化合物、硫黄と化合した希土類元素との化合物、硫黄とマグネシウムと希土類元素との化合物のいずれかの化合物を含有する母合金としたことを特徴とするものが存在する(特許文献1)。 Conventionally, the injecting agent for cast iron for increasing the number of graphite grains has been characterized by containing a compound of sulfur and a graphite spheroidizing element in the mother alloy, and more specifically, magnesium combined with sulfur. (Patent Document 1), there is a compound characterized by containing a compound of any of the above compounds, a compound of a rare earth element compounded with sulfur, and a compound of sulfur, magnesium, and a rare earth element (Patent Document 1).
さらに、この種の鋳鉄用接種剤としては、球状黒鉛鋳鉄の溶湯処理の際に溶湯に接触させられる球状黒鉛鋳鉄用接種剤であって、SiC粉末と少なくともFe-Si系合金とを複合化してなるものが存在する(特許文献2)。 Further, this type of injectant for cast iron is an injectant for spheroidal graphite cast iron that is brought into contact with the molten metal during the molten metal treatment of spheroidal graphite cast iron, and is a composite of SiC powder and at least an Fe—Si alloy. (Patent Document 2).
また、この種の鋳鉄用接種剤としては、球状黒鉛鋳鉄の鋳鉄溶湯に接種を行うためのBi系接種剤であって、Biと、Ni、Cuのいずれか1種または2種とを含む混合物または合金であることを特徴とするものが存在する(特許文献3)。 Further, this kind of inoculator for cast iron is a Bi-based inoculator for inoculating molten cast iron of spheroidal graphite cast iron, and is a mixture containing Bi and any one or two of Ni and Cu. Alternatively, there is one characterized by being an alloy (Patent Document 3).
ダクタイル鋳鉄などの鋳造において、接種剤による黒鉛粒数の増加によって得られる効果としては、鋳鉄の材質強度の向上、引け性(鋳造不良)の低減、鋳造歩留まりの向上(コスト低減)などが考えられる。 In casting of ductile cast iron, etc., the effects obtained by increasing the number of graphite grains by the injectant are considered to be improvement of the material strength of cast iron, reduction of shrinkage (casting defect), improvement of casting yield (cost reduction), etc. ..
そこで、本発明は、従来の接種剤と同等以上に黒鉛粒数を増加させる接種剤を提供することを目的としてなされたものである。 Therefore, the present invention has been made for the purpose of providing an inoculant that increases the number of graphite grains to be equal to or higher than that of a conventional inoculant.
そのため、本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤は、Fe―Si系合金に、Ca、Alのいずれの元素も含有したものとすると共に、Ti、V、Nbのうちいずれか一つ以上の元素を含有したものとし、Siが70~75重量%、Caが2.2~2.3重量%、Alが1.3~1.4重量%、Ti、V、Nbのうちいずれか一つ以上の元素の合計が0.5~6.0重量%、残りが主にFeからなるものとしている。 Therefore, the inoculant for cast iron of the present invention is assumed to contain any element of Ca or Al in the Fe—Si alloy, and also contains any one or more of Ti, V and Nb. It is assumed that Si is 70 to 75% by weight, Ca is 2.2 to 2.3% by weight, Al is 1.3 to 1.4% by weight, and one or more of Ti, V, and Nb is used. The total is 0.5 to 6.0% by weight, and the rest is mainly composed of Fe .
そして、本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤は、平均粒径が0.1~10.0mmの粉末であるものとしている。 The inoculant for cast iron of the present invention is a powder having an average particle size of 0.1 to 10.0 mm.
本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤は、以上に述べたように構成されており、従来の接種剤と同等以上に黒鉛粒数を増加させることができるものとなった。 The inoculant for cast iron of the present invention is configured as described above, and the number of graphite grains can be increased to the same level as or higher than that of the conventional inoculant.
以下、本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤を実施するための形態を詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the inoculant for cast iron of the present invention will be described in detail.
本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤は、FeーSi系合金に、Ti、V、Nbのうちいずれか一つ以上の元素を含有したものとし、Siが70~75重量%、Ti、V、Nbのうちいずれか一つ以上の元素の合計が0.5~6.0重量%、残りが主にFeからなるものとしている。 The inoculant for cast iron of the present invention is a Fe-Si alloy containing one or more of Ti, V, and Nb, and has 70 to 75% by weight of Si, Ti, V, and Nb. It is assumed that the total of any one or more of the elements is 0.5 to 6.0% by weight, and the rest is mainly composed of Fe.
本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤は、粉末であるものとしており、その粒度は接種剤の添加時期によって異なるが、平均粒径が0.1~10.0mmの粉末であるものとしている。接種剤の添加時期が遅いほど、粒度は小さくするのが好ましい。鋳込み直前で大きいものを使用すると溶け残り、また取鍋時であまり小さいものを使用すると取鍋付着しスラグ化、速く溶けて効果がでないなどの問題があるからである。例えば、接種剤の添加時期が、注湯流添加であれば0.25~1.0mmとするのが好ましく、鋳型内添加であれば0.25mm未満とするのがより好ましく、取鍋添加であれば1.0~10.0mmとするのが好ましい。 The inoculant for cast iron of the present invention is a powder, and the particle size thereof varies depending on the timing of addition of the inoculant, but the average particle size is 0.1 to 10.0 mm. The later the inoculant is added, the smaller the particle size is preferably. This is because if a large one is used immediately before casting, it remains undissolved, and if a too small one is used at the time of ladle, it adheres to the ladle and becomes slag, and it melts quickly and has no effect. For example, the timing of addition of the inoculant is preferably 0.25 to 1.0 mm when the inoculant is added, more preferably less than 0.25 mm when the inoculant is added in the mold, and the ladle is added. If there is, it is preferably 1.0 to 10.0 mm.
本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤において、FeーSi系合金は、CaおよびAlのいずれの元素をも含有したものとしている。本発明の実施例で用いたFeーSi系合金のCaの含有量は2.2~2.3重量%、Al含有量は1.3~1.4重量%とした。
In the inoculant for cast iron of the present invention, the Fe-Si alloy contains both elements of Ca and Al. The Ca content of the Fe-Si alloy used in the examples of the present invention was 2.2 to 2.3% by weight, and the Al content was 1.3 to 1.4% by weight .
本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤は、Tiの含有量が0.5~2.0重量%であるものとしており、好ましくは1.7~1.9重量%であるものとしている。本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤において、Tiの含有量をこのような範囲としたのは、Tiの含有量が0.5重量%未満である場合には黒鉛粒数の増加があまり見られず、Tiの含有量が2.0重量%を超える場合にもそれ以上の黒鉛粒数の増加があまり見られないと共に、過剰添加すると球状化阻害の恐れがあるからである。 The inoculant for cast iron of the present invention has a Ti content of 0.5 to 2.0% by weight, preferably 1.7 to 1.9% by weight. In the inoculant for cast iron of the present invention, the Ti content was set in such a range because the increase in the number of graphite grains was not so much observed when the Ti content was less than 0.5% by weight. This is because even when the Ti content exceeds 2.0% by weight, the number of graphite grains does not increase so much, and if it is excessively added, spheroidization may be inhibited.
本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤は、Vの含有量が0.5~2.0重量%であるものとしており、好ましくは1.8~2.0重量%であるものとしている。本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤において、Vの含有量をこのような範囲としたのは、Vの含有量が0.5重量%未満である場合には黒鉛粒数の増加があまり見られず、Vの含有量が2.0重量%を超える場合にもそれ以上の黒鉛粒数の増加があまり見られないと共に、過剰添加すると球状化阻害の恐れがあるからである。 The inoculant for cast iron of the present invention has a V content of 0.5 to 2.0% by weight, preferably 1.8 to 2.0% by weight. In the inoculant for cast iron of the present invention, the reason why the V content is set in such a range is that when the V content is less than 0.5% by weight, the number of graphite grains does not increase so much. This is because even when the V content exceeds 2.0% by weight, the number of graphite grains does not increase so much, and if it is excessively added, spheroidization may be inhibited.
本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤は、Nbの含有量が0.5~2.0重量%であるものとしており、好ましくは1.6~1.8重量%であるものとしている。本発明の鋳鉄用接種剤において、Nbの含有量をこのような範囲としたのは、Nbの含有量が0.5重量%未満である場合には黒鉛粒数の増加があまり見られず、Nbの含有量が2.0重量%を超える場合にもそれ以上の黒鉛粒数の増加があまり見られないと共に、過剰添加すると球状化阻害の恐れがあるからである。 The inoculant for cast iron of the present invention has an Nb content of 0.5 to 2.0% by weight, preferably 1.6 to 1.8% by weight. In the inoculant for cast iron of the present invention, the Nb content was set in such a range because when the Nb content was less than 0.5% by weight, the number of graphite grains did not increase so much. This is because even when the Nb content exceeds 2.0% by weight, the number of graphite grains does not increase so much, and if it is excessively added, spheroidization may be inhibited.
