Abstract

The invention relates to a method for smelting ultra-low carbon stainless steel in a vacuum induction furnace. The method comprises the steps of filling raw materials required by smelting into a crucible; starting to heat after vacuumizing until the raw materials are melted down; reducing the vacuum degree, and adding iron ore into the molten steel till [C] is less than or equal to 0.01 wt%; stopping vacuum, adding aluminum until [O] is less than or equal to 0.002 wt%, starting a vacuum pump, and pre-degassing until [N] is less than or equal to 0.002 wt%; adding metal chromium, heating after melting down, and carrying out vacuum final degassing until [N] is less than or equal to 0.003 wt%; cutting off power to form a film, introducing argon, alloying Nb and Ti elements, adding an alloy, switching to a stirring power supply, and electrifying to melt down; and raising the temperature to 30-60 DEG C above the molten steel liquidus temperature, and carrying out electrified tapping. According to the method, the harmful element C is effectively reduced through iron ore decarburization, excessive acid-soluble aluminum can be volatilized through high-vacuum degassing, N, O and H can be reduced, the cleanliness of the steel is improved, and it can be guaranteed that the component structure of a steel ingot is more uniform through low-liquidus casting.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of vacuum induction furnace smelting, and in particular relates to a method for smelting ultra-low-carbon stainless steel in a vacuum induction furnace. Background technique [0002] In addition to high corrosion resistance, ultra-low carbon stainless steel also has good cold working performance and welding performance. It is widely used in energy, environmental protection, petrochemical, food and other industries. The metallurgical process is generally completed by electric furnace + LF + VOD. The process is relatively long, and requires relatively high levels of equipment and process technology. It is difficult to smelt stainless steel with a mass fraction of Cr of 20% to 30%, mainly due to problems such as difficult alloying and difficult decarburization and nitrogen removal. [0003] Among the disclosed technologies, the invention patent with application number 201410471330.9 discloses a new smelting met...
