The invention relates to the field of
ferrous metallurgy and
forge piece manufacturing, in particular to high-
toughness, ultra-pure and large-
quenching-depth 40CrNiMoRE
rare earth special steel for a large ring piece and a preparation method of the high-
toughness, ultra-pure and large-
quenching-depth 40CrNiMoRE
rare earth special steel. The invention relates to a high-temperature-resistant steel material, which comprises the following chemical components in percentage by weight: 0.3 to 0.5 percent of C, 0.1 to 0.5 percent of Si, 0.4 to 0.8 percent of Mn, 0.5 to 1.5 percent of Cr, 0.5 to 1.5 percent of Ni, 0.1 to 0.5 percent of Mo, 0.05 to 0.30 percent of V, 0.0005 to 0.0030 percent of B, 0.005 to 0.030 percent of RE and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities. Through V, B and RE comprehensive microalloying,
molten steel purification, inclusion modification and grain refinement, the
hardenability is improved, and the surface
quenching layer depth,
hardness uniformity and
impact toughness are ensured. And moreover, the high-toughness, ultra-pure and large-quenching-depth large ring piece is obtained through preparation technologies such as pure
smelting, airtight protection pouring and uniform deformation, and the technical problems that an existing large ring piece is low in purity, poor in toughness, insufficient in
hardenability, cracked in surface quenching and the like can be effectively solved.
