The invention discloses
corrosion fatigue resistant steel and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of low
alloy steel manufacturing. According to the steel, on the basis that E690 steel comprises the main elements of 0.04%-0.07% of C, 0.20%-0.26% of Si, 1.45%-1.60% of Mn, less than or equal to 0.01% of P, less than or equal to 0.015% of S and 0.44%-0.50% of Cr, element regulation and control are carried out, and the steel comprises the characteristic elements of 0.28%-0.66% of Cu, 0.76%-1.55% of Ni, 0.03%-0.12% of Sb and the balance Fe and inevitable impurities. According to the
corrosion fatigue resistant steel for
engineering and the preparation method thereof, the
alloy elements Cu, Ni and Sb are adjusted and added to inhibit
corrosion fatigue
crack initiation and expansion while the comprehensive
mechanical property requirement is ensured through
alloy element regulation and control, so that the
corrosion fatigue life is prolonged to meet the requirement of
engineering steel on
corrosion fatigue resistance design. A steel
ingot meeting the component design range is smelted through a
vacuum induction furnace, through laboratory
corrosion fatigue performance evaluation and corresponding follow-up component design and preparation
process optimization, the corrosion fatigue resistant steel with the structure being
bainite is finally obtained, and the corrosion fatigue life of the corrosion fatigue resistant steel can be prolonged by 52% at most.
