Claims priority, application Austria, Oct. 16, 1961,
A 7,773/61 8 Claims. (Cl. 75--6tl) In refining pig iron or other high carbon iron alloys with oxygen blown against the surface of the iron bath within a converter, crucible or similar container, it is known that the heat produced by the combustion of the impurities in the steel and of a certain amount of iron is more than sufficient to heat the melt to the temperature necessary for tapping off and to produce from the slag formers added a hot and reactive slag. So it is necessary to add to the bath scrap material or ore for cooling purposes, thereby avoiding too high an end temperature, protecting the refractory cladding and providing for unobjectionable casting properties of the steel produced. It has been recognized that with this process it is also possible to produce low alloy steels if the addition of scrap iron is reduced so that a somewhat higher temperature of the melt at the end of the blowing process is attained, whereby the excessive heat is used for melting deoxidation agents and alloying constituents, which are added to the refining receptacle or to the ladle after the end of the blowing process. In this manner now great quantities of low alloy steels are produced.
When it was tried to produce high quality steels with an average content of alloying elements rather a high end temperature of the bath had to be chosen to compensate for the reduction in temperature which is experienced after the blowing period on account of deoxidation, for the holding time necessary for the separation of the deoxidation products and for the addition and melting of the alloying additions. Therefore the quantity or" cooling means added had to be diminished or even omitted and when blowing of chemically and/ or physically cold iron carbon alloys and when producing of steels with a somewhat higher content in alloying elements, or when using cheaper low percent alloying means, one had to rely on the auxiliary means known per se which consists in adding to the bath prior to and/ or during the blowing process such materials as carbon, silicon or aluminium and/or alloys of such materials, which dissolve in the bath and, by their combustion, supply the additional heat necessary for the oxygen refining process.
For the alloying additions containing alloying elements which do not have a lower afhnity with respect to oxygen than iron, and therefore could not be added prior to or during the blowing process, with such a process at the end of the blowing process a high end temperature is necessary which severely reduces the life of the refractory cladding of the refining receptacle. However according to this process steels with a content in alloying elements of about 6 percent can still be produced. With steels which need only a low casting temperature the content in alloying elements can be increased, especially if high percent alloying means are used and if these are preheated.
On the other hand, however, alloying means, containing alloying elements with a greater aflinity for oxygen than iron, can, prior to or during the blowing process, only be added to a restricted extent, because only at a low content in alloying elements the end temperature at the end of the blowing process, tolerable for the lining, is sufficiently high to shift the equilibrium between the iron bath and the slag in such a manner that an intolerable 3,218,157 Patented Nov. 16, 1965 high quantity of alloying materials does not remain in the slag.
The present invention aims at providing a process for the production of high alloy steels within a refining receptacle without external heating, for instance in a converter, crucible and the like, whereby the iron bath is refined by oxygen blown from above against the bath, and the inventive process consists essentially in that at least such alloying means, which contain alloying elements with a greater aflinity with respect to oxygen than iron, and such heating materials with a greater aflinity with respect to oxygen than iron and than the alloying elements are added to the bath in solid state in partial quantities, and that the bath between the single additions of the partial quantities is refined by the oxygen blown from above against the bath.
Due to the use of the heating materials having a greater afiinity with respect to oxygen than the alloying elements contained in the alloying means, the addition of heating materials protects the alloying elements from excessive burning off and from transfer into the slag in spite of the addition of alloying elements having a greater aflinity with respect to oxygen than iron. The addition in partial quantities prevents too great a heating of the bath so that the lining of the refining receptacle is protected and a long life period is guaranteed. The inventive process allows the temperature during the total process to be maintained more uniform and to avoid the temperature peaks which are dangerous for the lining. Additionally, the addition of alloying means in partial quantities prevents too great a cooling of the bath which would occur as a result of the addition of too great quantities of alloying means in solid state. Therefore, the process according to the invention is advantageously applicable if the total quantity of the alloying means to be added, which alloying means contain alloying elements with a greater ailinity with respect to oxygen than iron, amounts to more than 15%, especially more than 25%, of the weight of the bath. The process according to the invention is of special advantage for the production of steels with a content of alloying elements, which have a greater atfinity for oxygen than iron, of more than 10%, preferably more than 13%.
According to the invention there can be added as alloying additions FeCr, FeMn and the like and as heating materials Si, Al and the like and/ or alloys of heating materials.
The partial quantities of alloying means and the partial quantities of heating materials, can, if desired, be added at different phases of the process. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, however, the additions of alloying means and heating materials are made simultaneously, especially commonly (combinedly). Alloying means and heating materials can be added to the bath in form of a single alloy, however, for instance in form of FeCr with high Si-content.
It is advantageous to distribute the additions of the partial quantities with reference to the process time in such a manner that the partial quantity of the heating materials following next is added at a content of the bath in heating materials which is just suflicient to protect the alloying elements, for instance Cr, from excessive burning off and transfer into the slag. Thereby, the requirements, namely to avoid excessive heating of the bath and simultaneously to retain the alloying elements within the bath, are best met. Preferably the heating materials are added in such a quantity that the heat supplied to the bath by oxidation of the heating materials corresponds to the heat consumed by the alloying process.
According to the invention the ratio of the added alloying means and the heating materials is selected so that before the addition of the partial quantity following next between two blowing periods the temperature of the melt does not exceed 1750 C., but preferably is 100 to 250 C. higher than the liquidus-temperature of the alloy present in the melt.
Thereby, the ratio of alloying elements and heating materials in each partial quantity, and the quantity of oxygen blown onto the bath at er the addition of the partial quantity, can be selected so that at least 80%, preferably more than 90%, of the alloying elements added are found in the finished steel.
V/ith respect to the temperatures during the process it seems appropriate to select not too large partial quantities. Therefore, according to the invention, the single partial quantities of the alloying means are so dimensioned that the single increase in alloying elements in the melt amounts to not more than preferably to about 5%.
During the additions of the partial quantities of alloying means and heating materials the blowing of oxygen onto the bath can be iriterrupted to avoid burning of. of these materials during their addition.
For the production of steels containing alloying elements with a greater affinity and alloying elements with lower afiinity with respect to oxygen than iron in the refining process a bath can be utilized which already contains the alloying elements wtih a lower affinity with respect to oxygen than iron. These alloying elements with a lower a; inity with respect to oxygen than ironcan be added to the melt within the refining receptacle or into the refining receptacle prior to filling the receptacle with the melt. However, refining can also be started using an iron bath with a content in alloying elements with a greater affinity with respect to oxygen than iron, for instance by adding to the bath within the refining receptacle the first partial quantity of at least the alloying means prior to the beginning of the refining process.
At all events it is advantageous, if, prior to each addition of a partial quantity of alloying means, the slag is completely or partially removed or reduction means are thrown onto the slag. Thereby, according to the invention, it can be proceeded so that, prior to the addition of a partial quantity, the bath, essentially free of slag, is transferred into a ladle or the like, the slag is removed from the refining receptacle and the bath is retransferred into the refining receptacle, whereby the addition of the partial quantity is made into the ladle or the refining receptacle.
Particularly when refining of iron baths rich in phosphorus, according to the invention, prior to the addition of the first partial quantity of alloying means, these can be refined, with an addition of heating materials if desired, until a low carbon and phosphorus content of the bath is attained.
The use of the inventive process is of special advantage when producing extremely soft CrNi steels with less than 0.05% C., preferably 0.03% C. maximally.
Example A crucible was charged with 20,300 kg. pig iron and 2,900 kg. niclrel; the original Sic0ntent of the pig iron of 0.10% was increased to 0.6% by addition of FeSi-alloy. Within 16 minutes and seconds, under normal blowing conditions, the melt was blown down to 0.03% C. and 0.21% Mn. The bath temperature was 1750 C. For complete removal of the slag the charge was tilted through the tapping hole. During tapping the addition or" the first partial quantity of 2500 kg. FeCr was added in the ladle. The slag was dumped out of the crucible wliereafter the melt was retransferred to the crucible. it was blown for 1 minute and 15 seconds whereafter a bath temperature of 1730 C. was measured. Thereafter the slag removed and the second partial quantity of 2500 kg. FeCr was given to the bath within the crucible. A Simplex FeCr with a Si-content of approximately 6% was used. Thereby, by calculation, the bath contained after each addition approximately .55 Si. The melt was blown to eat within 1 minute 15 seconds; the temperature measured was 1710 C. Now again it was tilted through the tapping hole, whereby the addition of the third partial quantity of 2300 kg. FeCr was given into the pan. After retransferring it was blown to heat again; the blowing period lasted 2 minutes. The temperature was at 1700 C, analysis of the melt at this moment showed 0.020% C, 0.19% rln; 0.32% Si; 10.96% Ni; 13.82% Cr; 0.009% P; 0.014% S. In the same manner a further partial quantity of 1200 kg. FeCr and 20 lrg. FeSi was now introduced into the melt, it was blown for 1 minute and 30 seconds, a temperature of 1705 C. was attained. An intermediate analysis showed: 0.025% C; 0.16% Mn; 0.31% Si; 10.47% Ni; 15.72% Cr; 0.010% P; 0.014% S. After addition of the remaining 1000 kg. FeCr a temperature of 1560 C. was determined. After resting the melt within the crucible for 12 minutes the melt was tilted, thereby adding 280 k". FeMn suraffin, that is, a ferro-manganese having an extremely low carbon content, in most cases be low 0.1 percent, and 200 kg. FeSi of After the 10. melt had stood for 8 minutes-whereafter the melt had a temperature of 1420" C.measured with the Pyropto, an optical pyrorneterthe melt was directly cast. Analysis of the melt showed: 0.03% C; 0.98% Si; 1.08% Mn; 9.96% Ni; 17.42% Cr; 0.010% P; 0.014% S. The yield in chromium was By a reductive treatment of the melt the yield in Cr can be further increased.
