(Industrial Application Field) The present invention is directed to the blooming of steel containing Al and S.
This invention relates to a continuous billet casting method for obtaining good quality with few subcutaneous and central large nonmetallic inclusion defects. (Conventional technology) In bloom billet continuous casting, the size of the slab is smaller in cross-section than in continuous slab casting, so there is a restriction in the installation space for the immersion nozzle in the mold, and from the viewpoint of improving controllability of injection flow rate. , casting is carried out using a small-diameter submerged nozzle. In molten steel containing Al, Al 2 O 3 is inevitably present as a deoxidation product, and during casting, it adheres and grows on the inner wall of the nozzle, causing nozzle clogging, inhibiting stable casting, and impairing casting. It is likely to cause defects on one surface and inclusion defects in the subcutaneous and central areas. As a countermeasure against this problem, a method has conventionally been adopted in which nozzle adhesion is suppressed by a combination of reducing Al 2 O 3 suspended in molten steel by ladle refining and controlling the blowing of Ar gas into the nozzle. However, there is a problem that the ladle refining effect is limited and that the blown Ar bubbles flow into the mold and form pinhole defects on the surface of the slab. In particular, in continuous billet casting, blowing Ar gas is undesirable because pinholes become small spherical defects, which lowers detection accuracy in magnetic particle testing, and this also worsens the level of defects on the surface of the product. Therefore, in recent years it has developed a strong affinity with S and O.
Focusing on Ca, the morphology of inclusions in molten steel has been controlled by adding Ca. For example, controlling the sulfide form of MnS into spherical CaS as a measure to prevent hydrogen-induced cracking in sour gas line pipe materials and weld cracking in lamellar tear-resistant steel, or Al 2 O 3 to prevent nozzle clogging in continuous casting. This includes controlling the morphology of CaO-Al 2 O 3 to form low-melting-point oxides. Conventionally, regarding the morphology control of MnS to CaS,
Haida et al., Tetsu to Hagane, No. 66 (1980), No. 3, P354
As reported in , a quantitative operational parameter ACR expressed by the molar ratio of effective Ca and S used for reaction with S has been proposed. If the value of this parameter is 1 or more, it becomes possible to control the morphology of MnS, so ACR
Operations are conducted to ensure ≧1. On the other hand, regarding the morphology control of Al 2 O 3 to CaO-Al 2 O 3 based low melting point oxides, 12CaO・7Al 2 O 3 (melting point 1460℃) and CaO・Al 2 O which exhibit a liquid phase in the casting temperature range are used. 3
Although it is qualitatively said that nozzle clogging will occur less if the morphology is controlled to a composition equivalent to (melting point 1610℃), quantitative No operational parameters posted. (Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As mentioned above, in order to reduce pinhole surface defects on slabs, the blowing of Ar gas into the nozzle is stopped, the molten steel is treated with Ca, and Al 2 O 3 of low melting point
It is generally considered that it is effective to control the morphology of CaO-Al 2 O 3- based inclusions. However, when the obtained slab is rolled to a finished product and subjected to ultrasonic testing, CaO−Al 2 O 3
Large CaS-based inclusions may occur, resulting in unsatisfactory product quality. The present invention is directed to a bloom billet continuously cast steel material containing Al and S, in which CaO-Al 2 O 3 -CaS
This prevents the formation of large inclusions in the system. (Means for solving the problem) The present invention has Al 0.010-0.050%, S 0.005-0.005%
In bloom billet continuous casting of steel containing 0.050%, Ca is added to the molten steel to reduce [%
Continuous casting is performed by adjusting the Ca]/[%Al] ratio within the range of 0.06 to 0.20. (Function) In this invention, the composition ranges of Al and S in steel are defined for the following reasons. Al needs to be contained at 0.010% or more to adjust the grain size of steel, but even if it is added in excess of 0.050%, the grain size adjustment effect will be saturated, and Al
As the concentration increases, the O concentration in the steel decreases, and the Ca remaining after reacting with O reacts with S to increase the amount of CaS produced, so the upper limit is set to 0.050%. S is from the perspective of imparting machinability to steel bars and wire rod products used for machine structural steel or cold heading steel.
The minimum content is 0.005% or more, but 0.050
If the content exceeds 0.05%, the mechanical properties will deteriorate and at the same time it will react with the added Ca and increase the amount of CaS produced. Therefore, the upper limit is set at 0.050%. For Ca, the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio depends on Al.
Adjust the addition so that it falls within the range of 0.06 to 0.20.
Figure 1 shows [%Al], [%Ca], [%Ca]/
[%Al] and defective rate of inclusion-based ultrasonic flaw detection in finished products {(number of defective products/total number of products) x 100, %}
Indicates the relationship between Figure 2 also shows [%Ca]/
The relationship between the [%Al] ratio and the inclusion-based ultrasonic flaw detection failure rate is shown. It is stable at low levels within the range, but conversely becomes high in the area below 0.06. In particular, it is necessary to contain S to impart machinability to steel bars and wire rods, but as shown in Figure 3, in the region where the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio is less than 0.06, S There is a clear tendency for the ultrasonic flaw detection failure rate to increase when the value increases beyond 0.010%. The reason for this is that as the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio decreases, CaO- Al2O3 - based oxides with a high melting point are produced, and as the S content increases, the amount of CaS produced increases. This is because CaO- Al2O3 -CaS inclusions with a high melting point are formed in the molten steel, making agglomeration and flotation difficult. Furthermore, if the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio exceeds 0.20,
Not only will a high melting point CaO-Al 2 O 3 -based oxide with a high CaO/Al 2 O 3 ratio be formed, but a large amount of Ca will have to be added, so the upper limit of the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio should be set. Specified in 0.20. From the above, in the present invention, the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio is limited to 0.06 to 0.20. In this way, the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio in steel is
By adjusting within the range of 0.06 to 0.20, the first
As shown in the figure, the composition of inclusions in steel has a low melting point.
The composition can be made close to that of 12CaO−7Al 2 O 3 based oxide. This oxide, like other CaO−Al 2 O 3 oxides with different CaO/Al 2 O 3 ratios, has a small amount
Although it contains CaS, it is maintained in a liquid phase at a casting temperature of about 1500°C, so it is easy to aggregate and thicken before solidifying and float and separate. Therefore, large inclusions that are detected by ultrasonic flaw detection of finished products do not remain in the bloom billet slab. (Example) Examples of the present invention are shown below. When producing mechanical structural steel and cold heading steel for 120 tons/heat of steel bars and wire rods using a converter and degassing equipment, an oxidizing converter containing a large amount of FeO, MnO, SiO 2 , etc. is used. After removing the spilled slag and forming a highly basic and non-oxidizing slag made of quicklime and aluminum slag on the surface of the molten steel in the ladle, adjusting the composition and dehydrogenation, a wire with an outer diameter of 13 mmφ is inserted deep into the molten steel in the ladle. iron-coated CaSi alloy wire (Ca content in filling 30%) with CaSi consumption of 0.48
Around Kg/T (Ca basic unit: 0.14 Kg/T) was added. In this way, while suppressing the oxidation loss of Ca, the [%Ca]/[%Al] in the molten steel is reduced as shown in Table 1.
10 adjusted so that the ratio is within the range of 0.06 to 0.20
The heat was separately cast using a curved billet continuous caster with a slab cross-sectional size of 162 mm x 162 mm. On the other hand, as a comparative material, five heats were separately cast in the same continuous casting machine in which the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio in the molten steel was adjusted to be less than 0.06 as shown in Table 1. The billet obtained from each heat is 40mm in diameter.
After rolling into a steel bar, the resulting steel bar was subjected to an ultrasonic flaw detection test, and the ultrasonic flaw detection failure rate due to large inclusions was compared in relation to the [%Ca]/[%Al] ratio, as shown in Figure 4. show. As is clear from the figure, [%Ca]/
In the heat where the [%Al] ratio is adjusted within the range of 0.06 to 0.20, there are extremely few inclusion defects.

By adjusting the Al] ratio within an appropriate range and performing continuous casting, the composition of inclusions in the molten steel approaches the composition of low-melting-point inclusions, promoting agglomeration and flotation, and preventing the formation of large inclusions in the slab. It is something. As a result,
In addition to preventing the occurrence of large inclusion defects in the subcutaneous and central areas of the product, since there is no need to blow Ar into the nozzle, pinhole surface defects can be virtually eliminated.
