Problems solved by technology

At present, some domestic enterprises use AlN to refine the crystal grains, but the Al content is too high, and the nozzle nodules are serious during the pouring process. During the pouring process, the nozzle nodules will randomly rush into the crystallizer, Insufficient flotation to form large-sized inclusions in steel

Abstract

The invention relates to a grain refining method of high-strength and long-life gear steel, which controls Al: 0.020-0.030%, Nb: 0.010-0.060%, N: 0.0060-0.0100%, Ti≤0.0035%, O≤0.0012 in the steel %. Reduce the content of Al and Ti, increase Nb, match a part of N, and use the joint action of Al+Nb+N to refine the grains. The rolling process has a key influence on the grain refinement. In terms of rolling, according to the research on the melting / precipitation temperature and precipitated phase of AlN, NbC, NbN, Nb(C,N), targeted improvements are made: when heating Melt Nb, C, Al, and N into γ-Fe, and use a large compression ratio in the first few passes of rolling to form a large deformation, refine the structure, and provide structure preparation for the precipitation of AlN and NbC in the subsequent pass; control the final rolling Temperature, so that a large number of NbC, AlN and other particles precipitate after rolling; slow cooling after rolling, cooling rate ≤ 8 ℃ / min, prolong the precipitation time of Al, Nb carbide, nitride or carbonitride. Through the above improvements, it is ensured that the grains of the gear steel are fully refined.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to special steel smelting, in particular to a grain refinement method to obtain high-strength and long-life gear steel. Background technique [0002] For quenching + low-temperature tempering gear steel, the grain refinement can improve the resistance of the carburized layer to crack propagation, and increase the strength and toughness of the carburized layer. At present, the carburized gear steels at home and abroad use AlN or Ti to refine the grains. After carburizing and quenching at 930°C for 6 hours, the austenite grains are rated at 6-7.5 according to GB / T6394. [0003] However, purely using Ti to refine the grains inevitably exists in the steel such as figure 1 The large-sized sharp-edged TiN particles shown reduce the gear contact fatigue life. At present, some domestic enterprises use AlN to refine the crystal grains, but the Al content is too high, and the nozzle nodules are serious during the pouring process. During t...
