[0036] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0037] Existing silicon steel strip products have at least one of the following problems: their magnetic properties often fail to meet high-end standards; it is difficult to achieve extremely thin thickness while maintaining quality and mechanical properties; and the existing preparation process is relatively complex. These problems limit the performance of silicon steel strip in applications that pursue high efficiency, high speed, high power density, and lightweight.
[0038] Based on this, in the first aspect, the present invention provides an ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strip, the thickness of the strip is t f ≤0.10 mm, the texture type of the strip includes a relatively high content of λ-lines ({001} <hk0>), η-line ({0kl} <100> ), <115> / / NDThese three textures, as well as the lower content of γ-rays (ND / / <111> )Texture;
[0039] Among them, the λ-line ({001} <hk0>) texture content is 10.8% to 25.8%, η-line ({0kl} <100> ) Texture content is 13.2% to 50.5%, <115> / / ND texture content is 31.4% to 52.8%; γ-ray (ND / / <111> )Texture content is 12.9% to 19.9%.
[0040] Compared with the prior art, the ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strip provided by the present invention has high magnetic induction and low medium and high frequency iron loss, for example: 5000 ≥1.66T, B for most examples 5000 Can reach above 1.70, P 1.0 / 400 <10.8W / kg,P 1.0 / 1000 <22.7W / kg, the above excellent magnetic properties are attributed to its specific texture characteristics, including: a relatively high and appropriate content of λ-line ({001} <hk0>) and η-line ({0kl} <100> ), <115> / / ND these three textures, and γ-line (ND / / <111> ) texture content is low, especially, <115> / / ND This specific texture has a positive effect on magnetic properties. The strip includes 31.4% to 52.8% <115> / / ND texture is beneficial to improving its magnetic properties.
[0041] Based on the above-mentioned specific texture characteristics, the magnetic properties of the strip provided by the present invention in each direction can reach: magnetic induction intensity B 5000 ≥1.66T, iron loss P 1.0 / 400 <10.8W / kg,P 1.0 / 1000 <22.7W / kg.
[0042] Preferably, the λ-line ({001} <hk0>) texture content is 15.0% to 25.8%, η-line ({0kl} <100> ) Texture content is 32.1% to 50.5%, <115> / / ND texture content is 39.9% to 51.4%; γ-ray (ND / / <111> ) texture content is 12.9% to 18.4%; Based on the preferred content of the above-mentioned specific texture, the magnetic induction intensity B of the strip in each direction 5000 ≥1.73T. When the strip includes favorable textures such as λ-line, η-line, <115> / / When the ND content is within the above preferred range and the unfavorable γ-line texture is controlled within a certain lower range, it helps to further improve the magnetic properties of the strip and achieve higher magnetic induction and low iron loss.
[0043] Furthermore, the thickness of the strip of the present invention can be thinner, that is, the thickness of the strip is t f It is 0.03mm~0.08mm.
[0044] Furthermore, when the strip is very thin, it also has high mechanical properties; for example, when 0.03 mm ≤ t f <0.05mm, the yield strength R of the strip e ≥350MPa, tensile strength R m ≥400Mpa; when 0.05mm≤t f ≤0.08mm, the yield strength of the strip R e ≥450MPa, tensile strength R m ≥500Mpa.
[0045] Preferably, the strip includes: small-angle grain boundaries of 2°≤α≤15° with a grain boundary ratio of 19.5% to 34.7%, and large-angle grain boundaries of α>45° with a grain boundary ratio of 18.9% to 33.4%; α is the orientation difference between adjacent grains. When the proportion of grain boundaries with different phase differences in the strip meets the above preferred conditions, a strip with better mechanical properties can be obtained. For example, when 0.03mm≤t f ≤0.05mm, the yield strength of the strip R e ≥380MPa, tensile strength R m ≥440Mpa; when 0.05mm≤t f ≤0.08mm, the yield strength of the strip R e >450MPa, tensile strength R m ≥530Mpa. Based on the above-mentioned preferred conditions for the grain boundary ratio, as the grain boundary ratio increases, it is beneficial to obtain a higher strength strip.
[0046] Preferably, the side structure of the strip has 1-2 layers of grains, and the grain structure of the strip is equiaxed. This microstructure helps to further improve the magnetic properties of the strip and achieve high magnetic induction and low iron loss in all directions. Specifically, (1) Improve magnetic induction: equiaxed grain structure and 1-2 layers of grains help to increase the consistency of arrangement of magnetic domains inside the material, thereby improving magnetic induction (magnetic flux density), so that the strip can conduct magnetic flux more effectively during magnetization; (2) Reduce iron loss: equiaxed grain structure and 1-2 layers of grains help to reduce iron loss caused by domain wall oscillation, thereby optimizing the high-frequency characteristics of the strip.
[0047] Preferably, the total average grain size of the strip is 27 μm to 74 μm; wherein the λ-line ({001} <hk0>), η-line ({0kl} <100> ), <115> / / ND The average grain size of any of the three textures is ≥ the total average grain size. The γ-line (ND / / <111> ) The average grain size of the texture is ≤ the total average grain size. When the strip of the present invention has a specific microstructure texture, such as λ-line, η-line, <115> / / NDThe average grain size of any of the three favorable textures is greater than or equal to the total average grain size, while the average grain size of the unfavorable γ-line texture is less than or equal to the total average grain size, and the total average grain size is within the preferred range, which is beneficial to improving the magnetic properties, further improving the magnetic induction, and also helping to reduce iron loss.
[0048] Furthermore, when the total average grain size of the strip is 27 μm to 74 μm, as the total average grain size decreases, it is beneficial to obtain a strip with higher strength.
[0049] Preferably, the λ-line ({001} <hk0>) texture includes Cube({001} <100> )、{001} <110> , {001} <120> These three orientation components; and / or, the η-line ({0kl} <100> ) textures include Goss ({011} <100> ), {210} <001> These two oriented components. When the favorable texture such as λ-line ({001} <hk0>), η-line ({0kl} <100> ) each include a specific orientation component, the magnetic properties can be optimized and the magnetic induction can be further improved. Specifically, when favorable textures such as λ-line and η-line include the above-mentioned specific orientation components, the movement resistance of the magnetic domain wall can be reduced, making the magnetization process smoother, thereby improving the magnetic induction, and a more regular magnetic domain structure can be formed. This regular magnetic domain structure helps to reduce the chaos and mutual interference of the magnetic domain wall, thereby reducing iron loss.
[0050] In some possible designs, the chemical composition of the strip includes, by mass percentage: Si: 2.0-3.5%, Al: 0.2-1.0%, Mn: 0.05-0.5%, and the rest is Fe and unavoidable impurities; wherein the sum of the Si and Al element contents satisfies 2.5%≤{[Si]+[Al]}≤4.5%.
[0051] In a second aspect, the present invention further provides a method for preparing the ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strip as described in the first aspect, comprising the following steps:
[0052] S1, select the initial thickness t 0 A non-oriented silicon steel sheet with a thickness of 0.15 to 0.35 mm is used as a base material, and the average grain size of the base material is 50 to 180 μm;
[0053] S2, cold rolling the base material at room temperature to obtain a final thickness t through multiple cold rolling passes. f Cold-rolled ultra-thin strip ≤0.1mm;
[0054] S3, annealing the cold-rolled ultra-thin strip.
[0055] Compared with the prior art, the preparation method provided by the present invention is simple to operate and has a short process flow. As an economical and efficient method, it is suitable for manufacturing ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strips.
[0056] Preferably, in step S1, the initial texture type of the base material includes λ-line ({001} <hk0>), η-line ({0kl} <100> )、Cube({001} <100> )、Goss({011} <100> ), {115} <161> 、{114} <481> ,γ-ray(ND / / <111> )At least two of the seven texture components.
[0057] In some preferred embodiments, in step S2, the final thickness t f Preferably, the total deformation of cold rolling is 46% to 92%, wherein the deformation of the first cold rolling is controlled at 30% to 60%, and the deformation of the second cold rolling is controlled at 20% to 40%.
[0058] Preferably, in step S3, the annealing temperature is 700-1000° C., the annealing time is 10-60 min, and the annealing atmosphere is hydrogen or a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen.
[0059] Based on the preparation method of the present invention, further by screening a base material with a specific microtexture, and / or selecting appropriate rolling process parameters and / or controlling annealing process parameters, it is beneficial to prepare an ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strip with excellent magnetic properties; specifically, by at least one of the following preferred methods: (a) using a non-oriented silicon steel plate with a characteristic initial structure as the base material, (b) controlling the reasonable ratio of the total deformation amount of the cold rolling process, the first cold rolling deformation amount and the second cold rolling deformation amount, (c) selecting a suitable annealing temperature and time as well as an annealing atmosphere, it is helpful to improve the magnetic induction and reduce the medium and high frequency iron loss, obtain higher mechanical properties and improve the surface quality.
[0060] Preferably, in step S2, the cold-rolled ultra-thin strip is 2 =45° ODF cross-section intensity level: λ-line ({001} <hk0>) texture ≥ α* line texture > γ-line (ND / / <111> ) texture, and the λ-line texture contains strong Cube ({001} <100> ) texture, the strength level of Cube texture is ≥ 2. By controlling the micro texture strength level of the cold-rolled ultra-thin strip, it is helpful to obtain a strip product with a higher strength favorable texture and a lower strength unfavorable texture, thereby optimizing its magnetic properties and further improving the magnetic induction.
[0061] It should be noted that in step S1, (1) the thickness of the selected base material is between 0.15 and 0.35 mm. This thickness range can adapt to different cold rolling mills and process requirements, providing flexibility for production. (2) The average grain size is 50 to 180 μm, which can ensure that the base material can form a shear band after a certain cold rolling deformation. The formation of the shear band increases the nucleation probability of the easily magnetized grains, promotes grain refinement and increases dislocation density, which helps to improve the magnetic properties and mechanical properties of the material. (3) Selecting a base material with a suitable initial texture type can ensure that it can obtain a good "precursor" after the cold rolling deformation process, which helps to improve the magnetic properties, mechanical properties, and organizational uniformity.
[0062] It can be understood that in step S2, the thinner the base material, the fewer rolling passes are used, but the rolling ratio of the first two passes remains almost unchanged, that is, rolling according to the preferred pass ratio of controlling the deformation of the first cold rolling pass at 30% to 60% and the deformation of the second cold rolling pass at 20% to 40% can improve the magnetic properties, improve the mechanical properties, improve the isotropy of the material, and optimize the uniformity of the microstructure; specifically, (1) improving the magnetic properties: a larger deformation of the first pass helps to form a nucleus that is conducive to the easy magnetization texture and to form a favorable environment for the recovery and recrystallization of the nucleus, while a smaller deformation of the second pass helps to adjust the storage energy distribution. A reasonable deformation ratio (1) Improve mechanical properties: The appropriate deformation ratio is conducive to the reasonable distribution of storage energy in the steel strip during cold rolling, and provides conditions for the formation of a reasonable grain structure for annealing treatment. The grain size is small and evenly distributed, which can improve the yield strength and tensile strength of the steel strip. (2) Improve isotropy and organizational uniformity: A reasonable rolling ratio promotes the formation of more linear textures, which helps to reduce the anisotropy of the material, so that the steel strip has low anisotropy in the longitudinal and transverse directions.
[0063] Exemplarily, the deformation amount of the first cold rolling is 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, and 55%; the deformation amount of the second cold rolling is controlled at 23%, 25%, 27%, 30%, 33%, 35%, and 38%.
[0064] It can be understood that in the production process of ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strip, annealing process is one of the key steps, which has a significant impact on the evolution of grain structure and texture. In step S3, by selecting a suitable annealing temperature (e.g., 700-1000°C) and annealing time (e.g., 10-60 minutes), and using an annealing atmosphere containing hydrogen, it is beneficial to improve magnetic properties, mechanical properties, isotropy and surface quality. Specifically, (1) improving magnetic properties: adopting the above-mentioned suitable annealing temperature and annealing time can improve grain structure and texture, form grain structure and texture that are beneficial to magnetic properties, thereby improving magnetic induction and reducing iron loss; (2) improving mechanical properties: adopting the above-mentioned suitable annealing process parameters can ensure that the material undergoes uniform recrystallization during the annealing process, optimize the grain size and shape, and improve the mechanical properties of the material; (3) improving isotropy and surface quality: adopting the above-mentioned suitable annealing process parameters can help reduce the anisotropy of the steel strip, making the magnetic properties and mechanical properties more consistent in different directions. The annealing atmosphere containing hydrogen can reduce the oxidation of the steel strip surface, maintain the chemical composition of the material and improve the surface quality.
[0065] Exemplarily, the annealing temperature is 750°C, 775°C, 800°C, 825°C, 850°C, 875°C, 900°C, 925°C, 950°C, 975°C, and the annealing time is 15 min, 20 min, 25 min, 30 min, 35 min, 40 min, 45 min, 50 min, 55 min.
[0066] Exemplarily, in step S3, a multifunctional heat treatment furnace is used for annealing, which facilitates the adjustment of annealing temperature, annealing time and annealing atmosphere. Ultra-thin strips with excellent performance can be obtained by adjusting the annealing process.
[0067] Specifically, in step S1, the grain structure of the selected parent material is equiaxed crystal. Equiaxed crystal means that the grains in the material are roughly the same size in all directions and have no obvious directional characteristics. This organizational morphology has the following advantages in the preparation of ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel: improving magnetic induction and reducing iron loss, improving processability, and enhancing isotropy.
[0068] Preferably, the side structure of the parent material has 1-3 layers of grains, and at least 25% of the grains penetrate the thickness of the parent material (i.e., the number of grains that penetrate the thickness of the parent material accounts for ≥ 25%) to ensure that the average grain size reaches half of the entire thickness of the parent material or more. Exemplarily, the side structure of the parent material may include 1 layer, 2 layers, and 3 layers, or 1 layer and 2 layers, or 1 layer and 3 layers; the number of grains in one layer may account for 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, or 90%.
[0069] It can be understood that the selected base material has 1-3 layers of grains and at least 25% of the grains penetrate the thickness of the base material, which has the following benefits in terms of improving magnetic induction and reducing iron loss: 1) Improving magnetic induction: The penetration characteristics of the grains help to form a continuous magnetic flux path, reduce magnetic resistance, and thus improve the magnetic induction intensity of the material; 2) Reducing iron loss: Larger grain size and fewer grain boundaries can reduce grain boundary scattering, reduce losses during the magnetization process, and thus reduce iron loss; 3) Improving isotropy: The penetration of grains in the thickness direction helps to reduce the anisotropy of the material, improve the performance consistency of the steel strip, and also help to improve the formation of favorable textures in subsequent cold rolling and the uniformity of the structure after annealing.
[0070] In some preferred embodiments, the initial texture type of the parent material belongs to at least one of the following 12 situations:
[0071] (1)λ-line +η-line texture;
[0072] (2)λ-line+{115} <161> Texture;
[0073] (3) η-line + {115} <161> Texture;
[0074] (4){115} <161> +γ-line texture;

[0083] The inventors of the present invention have found in their research that the use of the above 12 kinds of base materials with characteristic initial structures is conducive to further improving the magnetic properties and mechanical properties, and also has better structural uniformity and surface quality.
[0084] Further preferably, based on these 12 characteristic initial structures, by selecting a base material with a suitable thickness and average grain size, and after a carefully designed cold rolling and annealing process, it can be transformed into a high-quality ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strip with excellent magnetic properties. The following are some preferred implementations:
[0085] a) When the initial texture type of the base material belongs to at least one of the following seven situations (1), (2), (3), (5), (6), (8), and (9), in step S1, the initial thickness t 0 The thickness of the steel sheet is 0.15-0.20 mm, and the average grain size is 80-100 μm; in step S2, the deformation of the first cold rolling is controlled at 40%-50%, and the deformation of the second cold rolling is controlled at 20%-25%; in step S3, the annealing temperature is 800-850° C., and the annealing time is 20-30 min.
[0086] b) When the initial texture type of the base material belongs to case (4) or (7), in step S1, the initial thickness t 0 The thickness of the steel sheet is 0.25-0.30 mm, and the average grain size is 100-130 μm; in step S2, the deformation of the first cold rolling is controlled at 40%-50%, and the deformation of the second cold rolling is controlled at 30%-40%; in step S3, the annealing temperature is 850-950°C, and the annealing time is 10-30 min. More preferably, the annealing temperature is 900-950°C.
[0087] c) When the initial texture type of the base material belongs to case (10), in step S1, the initial thickness t 0 The thickness of the steel sheet is 0.25-0.35 mm, and the average grain size is 130-160 μm; in step S2, the deformation of the first cold rolling is controlled at 40%-60%, and the deformation of the second cold rolling is controlled at 30%-40%; in step S3, the annealing temperature is 850-1000°C, and the annealing time is 10-30 min. More preferably, the annealing temperature is 900-950°C.
[0088] d) When the initial texture type of the base material belongs to case (11) or (12), in step S1, the initial thickness t 0 The thickness of the steel sheet is 0.30-0.35 mm, and the average grain size is 130-160 μm; in step S2, the deformation of the first cold rolling is controlled at 50%-60%, and the deformation of the second cold rolling is controlled at 30%-40%; in step S3, the annealing temperature is 850-1000°C, and the annealing time is 10-20 min. More preferably, the annealing temperature is 900-950°C.
[0089] It should be noted that for cold-rolled ultra-thin strips of different thicknesses, using the appropriate annealing temperature is beneficial to further improve the magnetic properties, mechanical properties, and product quality. In some preferred embodiments, when the final thickness of the cold-rolled ultra-thin strip is t f At 0.03mm≤t f <0.05mm, the annealing temperature is 800~1000℃; or, when the final thickness of the cold-rolled ultra-thin strip is t f At 0.05mm≤t f Under the condition of ≤0.08mm, the annealing temperature is 700-900°C.
[0090] It should be noted that in step S1, the intensity level of each of the seven texture components, as expressed by ODF (Orientation Distribution Function), is ≥ 2, which indicates that these specific texture components are dominant in the material, so that the dominant texture can be used to achieve excellent magnetic properties as well as to ensure mechanical properties and product quality.
[0091] Exemplarily, in step S3, the annealing atmosphere is a mixed gas of nitrogen and hydrogen. Preferably, the volume fraction of hydrogen in the mixed gas is V H2 ≥10%. By controlling the annealing atmosphere to contain a certain amount of hydrogen (at least 10%), the magnetic properties, mechanical properties and surface quality of ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strip can be further improved, while maintaining the isotropy of the material, better meeting the needs of high efficiency, high speed, high power density and lightweight.
[0092] More preferably, in the hydrogen-nitrogen mixed annealing atmosphere, the hydrogen content (i.e., volume fraction) is 10% to 40%, which can achieve a relatively ideal annealing effect while ensuring safety, easy operation, and reducing costs, thereby producing high-quality ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strips with excellent magnetic properties. Exemplarily, the hydrogen content (i.e., volume fraction) is 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, and 35%.
[0093] It should be noted that in step S1, an insulating coating is provided on the surface of the base material, which can not only prevent interlayer short circuits, maintain the stability of magnetic properties, and protect the surface of the material, but also help to maintain the flatness of the material during the cold rolling process, and also help to form a more uniform temperature distribution during the annealing process, thereby improving the heat treatment effect.
[0094] It should be noted that in step S2, a multi-roll mill is used for cold rolling. During the rolling process, front and rear tensions are applied to the strip between the rollers to keep the strip flat and wrinkle-free, thereby improving the strip quality and maintaining the integrity of the insulating coating on the strip surface.

[0221] In order to more clearly show the parameter variables and performance test results of the preparation examples of all the above embodiments and all the comparative examples, see Table 2 and Table 3. As can be seen from Table 2, the corresponding preparation examples of the above embodiments adopt the preparation method provided by the present invention to obtain ultra-thin non-oriented silicon steel strip products with high magnetic induction and low medium and high frequency iron loss, and the magnetic induction intensity B 5000 All can reach 1.66T and above, most B 5000 Can reach above 1.70, medium frequency iron loss P 1.0 / 400 Can be controlled below 10.8W / kg, most P 1.0 / 400 Can be controlled below 10.0W / kg, high frequency iron loss P 1.0 / 1000 It can be controlled below 22.7W / kg (since 0.08mm strips are more often used in the medium frequency field, the key parameters P are listed in Table 2. 1.0 / 400 ). Compared with the preparation examples of Examples 9-3 to 9-10, the magnetic properties of the strip product obtained in the preparation example of Example 9-1 are better due to the use of more preferred base materials and process parameters (such as the thickness of the base material, the average grain size, the ratio of the deformation amount of the first pass and the second pass in rolling, the annealing temperature and time).

For example, B 5000 Decline, P 1.0 / 400 The processing performance and quality of the obtained strip are also not as good as the products obtained in the preparation examples listed in Table 2 (i.e., the strip products in the corresponding embodiments).
