  • the invention of this application relates to a method for producing ferritic heat-resistant steel for use in boilers of thermal power plants, chemical industry apparatuses, and the like that are operated at high temperatures and under low oxygen partial pressure atmospheres.
  • Heat resistant steel and heat resistant alloys have been used as materials resisting to high temperatures and high pressures at thermal power plants; in the case of using such heat resistant steel and heat resistant alloys under the atmosphere, dense oxide coating film forms on the surface to function as protective layers.
  • the invention of the present application has been made under such circumstances, and the objectives thereof are to overcome the problems of the conventional techniques and to provide a high Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel on which an oxidation-resistant protective coating film is formed even in the presence of high temperature water vapor under low oxygen partial pressure atmospheric condition.
  • the invention of the present application provides, firstly, a steel characterized in that it is a ferritic heat-resistant steel containing 15 mass % or less of Cr, in which at least the region up to 10 ⁇ m defined by surface depth is made of a worked texture composed of extended ferritic grains or superfine texture composed of ferrites 3 ⁇ m or less in grain diameter, and having a protective coating film on the surface.
  • a steel characterized in that the shorter diameter of the extended ferritic grains is 5 ⁇ m or less; and thirdly, it provides a steel characterized in that the shorter diameter of the extended ferritic grains is 3 ⁇ m or less, or the grain diameter of the ferrites is 1 ⁇ m or less.
  • the invention of the present application provides, fourthly, a production method for a steel of one of claims 1 to 3, in which working is applied in the temperature range of from 400 to 800° C. to form a worked texture or superfine ferrite grain texture at least in the region up to 10 ⁇ m defined by surface depth, and pre-oxidation treatment is applied to form a protective coating film; fifthly, it provides a production method in which the working degree on applying working is 0.7 or higher in true strain; and sixthly, a production method in which the pre-oxidation treatment is carried out by holding the steel for 30 to 90 minutes in the temperature range of from 400 to 800° C. under the atmosphere.
  • FIG. 1 is a cross sectional scanning electron microscope (SEM) photograph of an intensively worked part which have been subjected to compression working at a temperature of 500° C., followed by pre-oxidation treatment in the atmosphere at 640° C./1h, an then by water-vapor oxidation at 650° C./100h;
  • SEM scanning electron microscope
  • FIG. 2 is a cross sectional SEM photograph of a weakly worked part which have been subjected to compression working at a temperature of 500° C., followed by pre-oxidation treatment in the atmosphere at 640° C./1h, an then by water-vapor oxidation at 650° C./100h; and
  • FIG. 3 is side cross sectional SEM photograph of an intensively worked part which have been subjected to compression working at a temperature of 500° C., followed by water-vapor oxidation at 650° C./3h without applying pre-oxidation treatment.
  • the invention of the application is most characterized by that the oxidation resistance is improved by applying a specific working and heat-treatment, and not by increasing the composition of chromium (Cr) or silicon (Si), nor by adding elements such as palladium (Pd) or platinum (Pt) and the like. Accordingly, the high Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel obtained by the method for improving the oxidation resistance according to the invention of the application possesses an advantage in that the physical properties and the chemical properties of the initial composition remain without being impaired.
  • the surface layer of the steel material can be modified by applying mechanical treatment such as shot peening and the like, or an oxidation-resistant protective coating film can be formed by applying relatively mild crystal grain refining treatment with large grains about 10 to 50 ⁇ m in particle diameter, however, in high Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel containing 15 mass % or less Cr, such oxidation-resistant protective coating film cannot be formed even if such treatment should be employed.
  • the keys of the invention of the present application are to accumulate strain energy at high levels by applying warm intensive working to the high Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel, or to form fine texture consisting of crystal grains 2 ⁇ m or less in grain diameter.
  • the reason for accumulating strain energy at high levels or for forming fine texture consisting of crystals grains 3 ⁇ m or less in grain diameter is because, the steel material having the strain energy accumulated in high levels easily undergoes recrystallization to form superfine grain texture.
  • the grain boundary area increases to contribute for the diffusion acceleration of chromium (Cr).
  • chromium Cr
  • Cr 2 O 3 chromium oxide
  • thermomechanical treatment such as the rolling or the forging generally employed in the art, it is not possible to highly accumulate the strain energy or to form a fine texture consisting of ferritic crystal grains 3 ⁇ m or less in grain diameter according to the invention of the present application.
  • the working ratio is lower than 70%, the accumulation of the desired strain energy remains insufficient, and the generation of protective coating film and the use thereof cannot be fully expected ever after the pre-oxidation treatment.
  • the morphology of the elongated ferritic grains it is preferred that it has a shorter diameter of 5 ⁇ m or less, and most preferably, it has a shorter diameter of 3 ⁇ m or less; otherwise, the ferritic grains has a grain diameter of 3 ⁇ m or less, and most preferably, they are fine grains 1 ⁇ m or less in grain diameter.
  • the invention of the present application comprises accumulating strain energy at high levels by applying warm intensive working to the high Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel, or forming fine texture consisting of crystal grains 3 ⁇ m or less in grain diameter; however, the protective coating film does not always form at high temperatures in the presence of water vapor by simply accumulating the strain energy by warm intensive working or by forming fine crystal texture. It is necessary to form sequentially thereafter the protective coating film by applying pre-oxidation treatment.
  • the pre-oxidation treatment is preferably carried out under the atmosphere or under an inert gas (rare gas or gaseous nitrogen) atmosphere containing gaseous oxygen, but more practical is to perform the treatment in the atmosphere. Further, the pre-oxidation treatment is preferably performed by heat treatment in the atmosphere at 400 ⁇ 800° C. for about 30 to 90 minutes.
  • chromium (Cr) is oxidized for the first time, and forms Cr 2 O 3 which functions as an oxidation-resistant protective coating film.
  • the grain diameter is 0.8 ⁇ m or less for the sample held at 660° C or lower, and is 1 ⁇ 2 ⁇ m for the sample held at 680 ⁇ 700° C.
  • the invention of the application enables forming an oxidation-resistant protective coating film on the high Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel having a Cr content of 15 mass % or less, on which an oxidation-resistant protective coating film had never been formed, and this widely increases the usage of high Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel. Furthermore, the invention of the application is advantageous in that it utilizes heat treatment, because it does not make any changes on the composition of the high Cr ferric heat-resistant steel. Moreover, since the protective coating film is thin and is tightly adhered, it hardly peels off; it thereby exhibits effect on greatly reducing the risk of causing clogging of the piping due to the peeled off scales, or of wearing the turbine blades.
  • the high Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel of the invention of the application includes those of various compositions containing 15 mass % or less of Cr. For instance, there are included those containing 7 mass % to 15 mass % of Cr.
  • Steel such as the high Cr ferrite heat-resistant steel specified in ASME SA35 P91 or ASME SA 213 T91, are included. These are specified in the invention of the application by the general term “high ferritic (system)” steel.
  • Mod. 9Cr-1Mo steel was subjected to 70% compression working at 500° C., and was cut and polished in such a manner that the fine texture region and the worked texture region should be exposed on the surface. Then, after applying pre-oxidation treatment at 650° C. for 1 h in the atmosphere, the test specimen was oxidized in water vapor at 650° C./100 h.
  • FIG. 1 shows the cross section SEM photograph of the intensively worked part. The formation of the Cr-rich (Cr 2 O 3 ) protective coating film (0.1 ⁇ m or less in thickness) on the surface was observed. Furthermore, the crystal grain diameter of the ferritic grains in the fine texture region under the protective coating film was found to be 1.0 ⁇ m or smaller. Further, the shorter diameter of the elongated ferrite in the worked texture region under the protective coating film was found to be 3 ⁇ m.
  • Mod. 9 Cr-1Mo steel was subjected to pre-oxidation treatment at 680° C. for 1 h in the atmosphere, and was then subjected to water-vapor oxidation at 650° C./100 h.
  • FIG. 2 shows the cross section SEM photograph of the resulting product, but the growth of an Fe-rich double layer scale (about 60 ⁇ m in thickness) due to accelerated oxidation was observed. The average grain diameter of the ferritic grains was 7 ⁇ m.
  • Mod. 9Cr-1Mo steel was subjected to 70% compression working at 500° C. in a manner similar to that of Example 1, and was subjected to water-vapor oxidation at 650° C./3 h thereafter without applying pre-oxidation treatment for observation.
  • FIG. 3 shows the cross section SEM photograph of the intensively worked part. The formation of double layer scale (about 10 ⁇ m in thickness) was observed.
  • the invention of the application enables forming a thin and highly adhesive oxidation-resistant protective coating film, which had been believed impossible, on the high Cr ferritic steel having a Cr content of 15% or less.
