Abstract

The invention discloses an RH (Ruhrstahl Heraeus) refining process for inhibiting 20CrMnTi steel from generating large-size TiN-containing composite inclusions. The total treatment time of the RH refining process is 30-50 min, and the maximum argon blowing flow is 15-25 NL / min per ton of steel; the whole process is divided into an RH early stage, an RH middle stage and an RH later stage; and the treatment time, vacuum pressure, argon blowing flow and alloying of the three periods are controlled, and strict control over the content of elements such as Al, Mg, O, Ca, Ti and N in the 20CrMnTi molten steel is achieved. According to the method, generation of MgO-Al2O3-TiOx oxides in the smelting and solidification process is inhibited, TiN is effectively prevented from growing on MgO-Al2O3-TiOx oxide inclusions, the effect of remarkably reducing the number and mutual aggregation of the oxides and TiN composite large-size inclusions is achieved, the TiN inclusions are fine and evenly distributed, and the size is smaller than 5 micrometers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention mainly belongs to the field of steel smelting, and in particular relates to an RH refining process for suppressing the formation of large-sized TiN-containing composite inclusions in 20CrMnTi steel. Background technique [0002] 20CrMnTi gear steel is a kind of gear steel with large production volume and wide application in my country. The Ti content is controlled within the range of 0.04-0.1%, and the TiN precipitates of tens of nanometers are mainly used to pin the grain boundary and inhibit the grain growth. effect. [0003] In actual production, due to the complex smelting process and solidification segregation, two kinds of harmful inclusions of TiN will be formed in steel. The first type is a single TiN inclusion, formed in a homogeneous nucleation manner, with a size in the range of a few microns, relatively small, and more uniformly distributed, so it is less harmful. The other is composite TiN inclusions, which are formed in a h...
