Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of metal materials, and particularly relates to a nickel-based alloy welding material for pressure vessels and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the progress of China's industrial technology, along with the increasingly high requirements for the performance of metal materials, whether it is the nuclear industry and aviation industry in high-tech fields or the traditional chemical industry, the demand and requirements for pressure vessels are getting higher and higher. Whether it is a storage container, such as a chemical storage tank or a hydrogen storage tank, etc.; or a reaction vessel, such as a reactor, etc., there are requirements for pressure, and at the same time, higher requirements are put forward for the materials. In the industry, according to the requirements of different media, the material selection and design of pressure vessels require sufficient strength, stiffness, service life and compatibility with the medium to meet different working conditions. It is necessary to comprehensively consider the chemical composition, mechanical properties and process performance of the pressure vessel, and at the same time, the welding performance of the pressure vessel should also be considered.

[0003] At present, pressure vessels are still mainly made of nickel-based alloys. To meet the excellent sealing performance of pressure vessels, the welding materials should also be mainly nickel (Ni). As the main element used in current welding materials, Ni is a rare alloying element that can not only improve the strength of alloy materials but also does not significantly weaken the plasticity of the materials, and has extremely excellent high-temperature resistance, oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance. However, there are obvious defects in nickel-based alloy welding: for example, pores and slag inclusions are likely to appear during the welding process due to high-temperature oxidation, affecting the welding quality and sealing performance. During the welding process, grain growth affects the toughness and the cost is too high. In addition, when used for the storage and transportation of hydrogen, there will also be a phenomenon of hydrogen embrittlement, resulting in material failure.

[0004] At present, there are two conventional methods. One is to improve the welding process, and by optimizing welding parameters, preheating temperature, etc., to alleviate the problems of pores, slag inclusions and toughness, but the effect is not good. The other is to purify alloy impurities through the design of the nickel-based alloy composition. This research and development direction will be the mainstream direction in the future.
