Abstract

The invention discloses a vacuum induction melting method of high-oxygen-content steel, which comprises the following steps: using iron scales or iron ores as an oxygen supply source, charging oxygen gas and argon gas into the furnace, regulating the gas pressure in the furnace, and reasonably optimizing the addition sequence of the iron scales, alloy and graphitic carbon, thereby ensuring the high oxygen content. The invention solves the problem of contradiction between high vacuum degree and high oxygen content, greatly enhances the oxygen content in molten steel, and provides technical guarantees for melting high-oxygen-content steel grades in vacuum.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of vacuum induction metallurgy, in particular to a method for vacuum induction smelting steel with high oxygen content. Background technique [0002] Vacuum smelting began during the First World War. Due to the high degree of vacuum, in addition to degassing, it can also remove trace impurities with high vapor pressure in the alloy. Therefore, some high-grade special steels are also used for vacuum smelting. Vacuum smelting is now widely used for deoxidation, decarburization, improving alloy yield, fine-tuning molten steel composition, etc. [0003] The core problem of vacuum induction smelting is the carbon-oxygen reaction. Due to the high vacuum in the furnace, the general furnace pressure can reach 40-60Pa, and the partial pressure of CO is very low, which destroys the original balance of carbon and oxygen, making the oxygen in molten steel The content is very low. When smelting under vacuum, the oxygen...
