Definitions
- refractory material components are used to channel and control the molten steel flow and to protect it from reoxidation when it is flowing from a ladle to a tundish and from the distributor to a continuous casting mold.
- the refractory material is subject to severe conditions of use. It undergoes thermal stress, a steel erosion, oxidation, and generally all reactions which result from interactions between the constituents of the refractory material and steel.
- the refractory materials used generally contain carbon. Frequently they use a carbon bond and are composed of one or more refractory oxides such as alumina, zirconia. clay, magnesia. silica, silicon carbide or other dense grains. These refractories also generally contain significant amounts of carbon in the form of graphite, amorphous graphite, carbon black and an additional amount of carbon from the binder used.
- the invention relates to a part for casting steel, this part comprising a body made of a refractory material containing carbon. It applies in particular to steel casting between a ladle and a continuous casting distributor, and to steel casting between a distributor and a continuous casting mold.
- It also relates to a heat treatment process of a workpiece according to the invention.
- EP 2 695 8408 a metal pouring nozzle which comprises a body of refractory material in which is formed a flow channel for the molten metal.
- the nozzle has an annular chamber arranged around the channel near the periphery of this channel and extending almost over its entire length.
- the chamber is connected to means for placing under vacuum. It forms a screen for the migration of gaseous products towards the flow channel.
- the nozzle may also include a jacket made of a carbon-free refractory material interposed between the periphery of the channel and the chamber placed under vacuum.
- the depression is maximum in the area located around the annular chamber.
- the complex network of porosity leads to significant pressure drops.
- the depression drops, which considerably limits the evacuation of the gases formed. It is therefore very difficult to eliminate the gases in the immediate vicinity of the contact area of the refractory with liquid steel.
- GB-A-2,095,612 is a casting stopper. It has a body and a reinforced nose ending the body and made of a material different from that of the body. The material of the body and that of the nose are compressed in a single operation. In other words, two powders of different composition, for example graphite alumina for the body and zirconia or magnesia for the nose, are introduced simultaneously into the same mold and then pressed and cooked simultaneously.
- the cohesion of the alumina, zirconia and / or magnesia grains is obtained by a carbon type bond, namely a bond in which the carbon contained in the mixture constitutes by hot polymerization. a network that encloses the different grains.
- the reactions between chemical compounds, particularly gaseous, which can form at high temperature in the refractory material constituting the nose of the stopper and in the liquid steel occur.
- the carbon monoxide reduces some elements present in the molten steel on the surface of the nose and on this surface causes the precipitation of oxides especially aluminum oxide. Oxide deposits gradually prevent complete closure of the sprue.
- the present invention relates to a part for steel casting which overcomes these drawbacks of the prior art.
- This part must make it possible to completely prevent reactions between chemical compounds, particularly gaseous, which can form at high temperature in the refractory material constituting the body of the part and in the liquid steel.
- the part comprises a layer partially or totally covering the body and capable of forming a gas-impermeable, oxidized and densified layer when it is brought to a temperature above 1000 ° C. .
- the plugging phenomena which occur when the carbon monoxide forming in the refractory reduces certain elements present in the liquid steel on the surface of the flow channel are remedied. steel and causes the precipitation of oxides, in particular aluminum oxide, on this surface. Oxide deposits gradually block the nozzle channel, which disturbs regulation and greatly reduces its duration of use. These deposits can also detach unexpectedly and end up as inclusions within the solidified steel. That, according to the invention, gas exchange between the refractory body of the nozzle and steel are prevented, the plugging phenomena previously known are reduced very significantly and the quality of the cast steel is improved. The steel is cleaner, having fewer inclusions.
- a hard and dense layer without carbon avoids such phenomena.
- the outer layer of the nozzle is made of a refractory material comprising sintering precursors.
- sintering precursors are intended to promote the phenomenon of sintering, that is to say of grain to grain bonding. It allows sintering to occur at a lower temperature and to run in a shorter time.
- These sintering precursors are chosen in particular from the group comprising calcined alumina, reactive calcined alumina, silica smoke, clays, fine particles ( ⁇ 50 microns) of oxides.
- the outer layer is made of a material comprising at least 4% and at most 9% by weight of carbon, including the carbon contained in the binder used, of which 1.5% to 6% in the form of graphite. Ideally the total carbon will not exceed 5% by total weight.
- the outer layer may consist of an insert manufactured separately from the body and then assembled with this body. It can also be co-pressed at the same time as the body of the nozzle.
- the same binder is used to bond the material constituting the body of the part and the material constituting the outer layer.
- the use of the same binder provides greater ease of manufacture, particularly in the case where the part is compressed. Indeed, in the latter case, it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to compress a part using two different binders.
- the material of the outer layer comprises agents for reducing the permeability.
- agents for reducing the permeability are preferably chosen from the group consisting of borax, silicon carbide, boron carbide, boron nitride and metal additions and particularly silicon.
- the purpose of these permeability reduction agents is to create a layer with reduced permeability which is added to the dense oxidized layer impermeable to gases formed by sintering the wall of the pouring channel.
- the outer layer consists of at least 80% alumina and is not covered with enamel. It has a thickness of less than 10 mm and the thickness of the dense sintered layer impermeable to gases is less than 5 mm.
- the invention further relates to a method of implementing a part according to the invention. According to this method, a dense, sintered and gas-impermeable layer is formed on the surface of the pouring channel during the heat treatment step.
- the heat treatment step is carried out by bringing the part to a temperature of 1000 ° C. in less than 20 minutes.
- FIG. 1 is a view in longitudinal section of a pouring nozzle according to the present invention
- Figures 2 and 3 are partial views on an enlarged scale of part of the nozzles shown in Figure 1
- FIG. 4 is a diagram which illustrates the preferred mode of preheating used for the creation of a dense sintered layer impermeable to gases in a nozzle according to the present invention.
- Figure 5 is a longitudinal sectional view of an alternative embodiment of a pouring nozzle according to the invention
- Figure 6 is a longitudinal sectional view of a stopper rod according to the present invention;
- the pouring nozzle shown in FIG. 1 is intended to be placed under a distributor. It can be fixed under this distributor in a fixed position, for example cemented in a seat brick or by means of a bayonet mechanism or the like. It can also be placed in a tube changing machine which allows, in known manner, to quickly replace one tube with another.
- the nozzle comprises a body designated by the reference 2, an upper part through which the liquid steel enters a pouring channel 9 which passes right through. In the embodiment shown the liquid metal flows through vents 6 arranged laterally relative to the body.
- the pouring nozzle comprises a cuff 8 made of a material resistant to erosion by the powder covering the casting mold. This cuff will be placed at the level of the steel in the continuous casting mold where cover powder floats on the liquid steel. The two openings 6 open below the level of the metal so as to avoid any contact with the air.
- the body 2 of the nozzle is made of a traditional refractory material, for example a material comprising from 20 to 30% of carbon and one or more refractory oxides such as alumina, zirconia, silica, magnesia, etc.
- the body 2 is coated externally with a layer of enamel 3 which aims to prevent oxidation of the refractory material during preheating and use.
- the interior of the pouring channel 9 is made of a refractory material comprising a low graphite content. The total loss on ignition of this material is less than 9%. This means that when this material is oxidized during the step of preheating the nozzle, the graphite it contains and the carbon contained in the binder represent 9% or less of the weight of refractory.
- the jacket 10 includes a large amount of a refractory oxide such as alumina. This quantity is at least equal to 80%.
- the material constituting layer 10 comprises sintering precursors, in particular calcined alumina, reactive calcined alumina, silica smoke or clays. Sintering precursors are small grains, that is to say grains whose specific surface is large. As a result, the contact surface between the grains is increased. The calcined alumina has a large specific surface and the calcined alumina reactivates an even greater specific surface. Silica smoke produces an alumina-silica reaction to create mullite. The densification of the shirt is then carried out by mullitization. Clay type systems also create ceramic bonds at a relatively low temperature of the order of 1000 ° C to 1100 ° C.
- This layer is dense, hard and has pores of small diameter. It is therefore impermeable to gases.
- This layer is preferably formed during the preheating of the nozzle. The preheating operation oxidizes the carbon contained in the jacket 10 and thus eliminates it. This gives a carbon-free layer on the surface of the flow channel 9 of the nozzle. It should however be noted that, unlike the attempts observed previously, this carbon-free layer has a small thickness.
- the thickness of the decarburized layer will typically be 3 mm, and at most 5 mm. It is thus observed that a substantial portion of the thickness of the jacket is not decarburized during preheating. In fact, during this operation, two simultaneous phenomena are observed. On the one hand, the oxidation of carbon which increases the permeability of the jacket material in a proportion all the greater the higher the carbon content. This is the reason why, in general, the carbon content of the jacket material should not be high and in any case it should not be greater than 9%.
- FIG. 2 There is shown in Figures 2 and 3 a portion of the nozzle of Figure 1 before the preheating operation ( Figure 2) and after preheating (Figure 3).
- Figure 2 a distinction is made between layer 2 corresponding to the body and layer 10 corresponding to the thickness of the jacket before preheating.
- FIG. 3 the layer 2 forming the body has remained identical.
- the layer 10 is now broken down into a layer 10a which constitutes the dense sintered oxidized sintered layer impermeable to the gases described above and a layer 10b which has not been oxidized because it has been protected from oxidation by the layer 10a . Its composition therefore remained identical to the initial composition it had prior to preheating.
- the nozzle which initially consisted of only two distinct layers, now consists of three different layers.
- agents for reducing the permeability are also included in the jacket 10. These waterproofing agents are, for example, silicon metal, borax, boron carbide (B 4 C), boron nitride (BN) . These agents are designed to reduce the permeability of the layer 10b so as to form an additional barrier in order to oppose the circulation of gas between the liquid steel flowing through the trough 9 and the body of refractory material 2.
- FIG. 4 shows a graph which illustrates the correct way of preheating a nozzle of the invention.
- curve A the temperature of the nozzle was rapidly raised to a temperature at least equal to 1000 ° C. This temperature was measured in the refractory material inside the channel 4. This was done in a period of less than 20 min. Indeed, as explained previously, two phenomena occur simultaneously during preheating. on the one hand the oxidation of the carbon layer and on the other hand the creation of a dense sintered layer.
- the oxidation will continue throughout the thickness of the jacket 10 and may also reach the body 2. In order for this to not happen it is necessary quickly reach the sintering temperature, that is to say a temperature at least equal to 1000 ° C as shown schematically in Figure 4. It is therefore necessary that the power of the burners used for preheating is sufficient to allow this temperature to be reached quickly.
- Curve B illustrates a too slow rise in temperature.
- the temperature of 1000 ° C. necessary for the sintering to be able to be carried out under good conditions is reached only after too long a duration, clearly greater than 20 min. Under these conditions the decarburization of the jacket 10 has occurred excessively and it will not be possible to obtain a sufficiently tight layer.
- the temperature rise is rapid but the maximum temperature reached remains below 1000 ° C. Consequently, in this case also, the sintering of the layer 10a will not occur under good conditions.
- FIG. 5 an alternative embodiment of the nozzle of Figure 1.
- the difference lies in the fact that the jacket 10 does not completely cover the pouring channel 9.
- the upper part of the nozzle, called seat area , the lower part of the channel 9 and the gills are not covered by the jacket 10.
- the nozzle of the invention can be covered externally with a layer of enamel to prevent oxidation of the refractory material during preheating and use.
- this enamel layer must not be present on the jacket 10 because it would prevent its oxidation during preheating and therefore its surface densification which is a desired effect in accordance with the present invention in order to create a dense sintered layer as has been explained previously.
- the stopper rod has a body 2 of elongated shape.
- An axial channel 7 is left in this body by the pressing mandrel.
- the axial channel 7 extends from the upper end of the stopper rod to a small distance from its lower end.
- the part upper part of the body can be connected, by means not shown, to a lifting mechanism which makes it possible to move it vertically in order to regulate the flow of liquid steel.
- the stopper has a rounded nose 5.
- the body 2 of the stopper is made of a traditional refractory material, for example a material comprising from 20 to 30% of carbon and one or more refractory oxides such as alumina, zirconia, silica, magnesia etc.
- the outer layer 4 of the nose 5 is made of a refractory material having a low graphite content.
- the total loss on ignition of this material is less than 9%. This means that when this material is oxidized during the preheating stage of the stopper, the graphite it contains and the carbon contained in the binder represent 9% or less of the weight of refractories.
- the outer layer 4 includes a large amount of a refractory oxide such as alumina.
- the material constituting the outer layer 4 of the nose includes sintering precursors, in particular calcined alumina, reactive calcined alumina, silica smoke or clays. The total amount of refractory oxide is at least 80%.
- the sintering precursors are generally grains of small size, that is to say grains with a large specific surface. As a result, the contact surface between the grains is increased.
- the calcined alumina has a large specific surface and the calcined alumina reactivates an even greater specific surface.
- Silica smoke produces an alumina-silica reaction to create mullite.
- the densification of layer 4 is then carried out by mullitization.
- Clay type systems also create ceramic bonds at a relatively low temperature of the order of 1000 ° C to 1100 ° C.
- This layer is dense, hard and has pores of small diameter. It is therefore impermeable to gases.
- This layer is preferably formed during the preheating of the stopper rod, but it can also be carried out previously. The preheating operation oxidizes the carbon contained in the outer layer 4 and thus eliminates it. This gives a carbon-free layer on the outer surface of the nose 5. It should be noted that this carbon-free layer has a small thickness.
- the thickness of layer 4 is 10 mm
- the thickness of the decarburized layer will typically be 3 mm and at most 5 mm. It can thus be seen that a large part of the thickness of layer 4 is not decarburized during preheating. In fact, during this operation, two simultaneous phenomena are observed. On the one hand, the oxidation of carbon which increases the permeability of the jacket material in a proportion all the greater the higher the carbon content. This is the reason why, in general, the carbon content of the jacket material should not be high and in any case it should not be more than 9%.
- the stopper rod shown in Figure 6 was produced by the process known as isostatic copressing. Two mixtures, one corresponding to the composition of the body 2 of the stopper rod, the other to that of the outer layer 4, were placed simultaneously in a deformable mold comprising an axial mandrel intended to form a recess corresponding to the channel 7. L he assembly was subjected to isostatic pressing. The same binder was used for the body 2 and for the outer layer 4. The use of the same binder is a great advantage because it makes it possible to give greater cohesion to the part and ensures a better bond between the body 2 and the outer layer 4.
- the nozzle which initially consisted of two distinct layers will consist of three different layers after a preheating step.
- permeability reduction agents are also included in layer 4.
- These waterproofing agents are, for example, silicon metal, borax, boron carbide (B C), boron nitride (BN). The purpose of these agents is to reduce the permeability of the layer so as to form an additional barrier to oppose the circulation of gases between the liquid steel contained in the pocket or in the distributor and the body of the refractory material 2.
- composition of an example of a mixture for the constitution of a sintered layer according to the invention is given below and the physical properties of this layer before sintering / oxidation.
