Problems solved by technology

[0002] The nitrogen content in steel has a great influence on the mechanical properties of steel. With the increase of nitrogen content in steel, the plasticity and ductility of steel decrease; nitrogen can also increase the aging of steel, reduce the cold working performance of steel, and cause welding heat affected zone Embrittlement, slab cracking and intergranular corrosion
Therefore, reducing the nitrogen content of molten steel has always been the goal of smelting high-quality steel, especially in the smelting process of wear-resistant and abrasive tool steel. The alloying process of LF furnace is difficult and the smelting cycle is long. In order to improve the alloying efficiency and shorten the smelting cycle , to ensure the production rhythm of continuous casting. Usually, LF furnace adopts large argon gas stirring to promote alloying. This strong dynamic condition of large argon gas is in contradiction with the control of nitrogen content, resulting in high nitrogen content in smelting this series of steels, making continuous casting The internal and surface quality of the billet is poor, which affects the performance of the steel plate and subsequent processing, and ultimately prevents the benefits of steel from being brought into play

Abstract

The invention discloses a control method for nitrogen content of molten steel of wear-resistant steel. By virtue of optimization of a converter tapping technology, improvement of orders of deoxidizing slagging and alloying of an LF (Ladle Furnace), as well as rational control on ladle bottom argon blowing flow rate and pressure in different smelting stages, and complete protective casting of continuous casting process, the nitrogen content of the molten steel can be controlled within 0.0030% after converter tapping, nitrogen adding in molten steel during LF+RH (Ladle Furnace process +Ladle Furnace process) is steadily controlled within 0.0010%, nitrogen adding in molten steel in the continuous casting process is steadily controlled within 0.0005%, and finally, nitrogen content in a high alloy wear-resistant steel continuous casting billet is controlled within 0.0045%, therefore, internal quality and surface quality of the casting billet are improved greatly.
