Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steel rolling, and particularly relates to a high-toughness semi-steel for H-beam rolling roller ring and a semi-steel roller and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] At present, my country is in the stage of high-quality development, and there is a huge demand for H-shaped steel with high dimensional accuracy and excellent comprehensive performance. H-shaped steel is mainly manufactured by rolling, so the toughness, wear resistance and fatigue resistance of the roller ring material are crucial. The carbon content of semi-steel material is 1.4%~2.3%. Semi-steel rollers not only have the high strength and toughness of cast steel rollers, but also have the good wear resistance of cast iron rollers. Semi-steel roller rings are usually used in the rough rolling stand and the front section of the finishing rolling of the plate and strip hot rolling mill, and are also widely used in the rough rolling and medium rolling stands for the production of steel, wire rods and bars. Among them, carbon and chromium are important elements for the formation of carbides in semi-steel rollers, which play an important role in improving the wear resistance of rollers. In order to improve the wear resistance of the rollers, it is often necessary to greatly increase the hardness of the material, which causes its impact toughness to decrease, which is easy to cause the surface of the roller to peel off or even break the roller, affecting the long-term service of the roller and the rhythm of steel rolling production. Therefore, improving the toughness of the roller material (generally measured by the impact absorption work) is a bottleneck problem faced by the industry. In view of this technical difficulty, it is particularly urgent to develop high-toughness semi-steel materials by optimizing chemical composition design and heat treatment process technology.

[0003] Chinese patent CN200910031123.0 discloses a patented technology of a semi-steel roller and its preparation method, which can improve the morphology and distribution uniformity of carbides and inhibit the segregation of alloy elements. However, its semi-steel material also contains a large amount of K and Na elements. On the one hand, these two elements are extremely active and difficult to accurately control during the production process, which increases the difficulty of process control; on the other hand, K and Na elements have low melting points. Under the harsh high temperature working conditions of the roller, these elements will melt, causing cracks to initiate and expand, making the roller surface peeling or even breaking.

[0004] The patented technology of US Patent US4165407A Adamite roll material for a rolling mill is characterized by low alloying component design, especially low Cr element, which is a key carbide-forming element in semi-steel materials. Although some other carbide-forming elements are added, the Cr content of no more than 0.8% still makes the semi-steel material of this patent invention have poor wear resistance due to insufficient carbide quantity.

[0005] Generally speaking, in the existing patented technologies, some mainly focus on the composition design with high carbon and noble metal element contents, resulting in high production costs; while others mainly focus on the composition design with high carbon and low alloy element contents, resulting in poor service performance of semi-steel materials. Therefore, designing more economical and reasonable chemical compositions and optimizing the heat treatment process to prepare semi-steel materials with low cost and high performance are of great significance for the high-quality development of the steel industry.

[0011] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present invention lies in: in the said Step 1, the chemical composition ratio of the semi-steel material is designed as C: 1.8%-2.0%; Si: 0.5%-0.7%; Mn: 1.2%-1.4%; Cr: 2.4%-2.7%; Ni: 0.8%-1.0%; Mo: 0.3%-0.5%; La: 50ppm-80ppm; Ce: 80ppm-150ppm; Y: 50ppm-100ppm; the balance is Fe and impurities; prepare the semi-steel alloy melt according to the set composition, including the following steps: Step 1.1: Calculate and prepare raw materials such as ordinary scrap steel, ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrochromium, ferromolybdenum, nickel plate, carburant, aluminum cerium, aluminum yttrium and rare earth silicon calcium modifier respectively according to the total weight of each furnace of aluminum alloy and the chemical composition ratio; Step 1.2: Add ordinary scrap steel, ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrochromium, ferromolybdenum, nickel plate, carburant into the smelting furnace for melting respectively; after melting, perform composition detection, and perform secondary alloying according to the actual element content to make the composition of the molten steel meet the required range; Step 1.3: Adjust the temperature in the furnace to 1560-1580°C, put one-third of the aluminum cerium rare earth master alloy into the furnace, keep warm and stand for 20 minutes; Step 1.4: After standing, put one-third of the aluminum cerium rare earth master alloy into the furnace again, keep warm and stand for 10 minutes; Step 1.5: After standing, adjust the temperature of the molten steel to 1450-1480°C, and then skim the slag from the molten steel melt; Step 1.6: Bake the tundish at 700 °C, and then evenly sprinkle the remaining one-third of the aluminum-cerium rare earth master alloy, all of the aluminum-yttrium master alloy, and the rare earth silicon-calcium modifier on the bottom of the tundish. The composition of the modifier is (mass fraction) 31% Fe - 40% Si - 12% La - 12% Ce - 5% Ca; Step 1.7: Pour the molten steel after slag skimming in Step 1.5 into the tundish.

[0014] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects obtained by the present invention are: Rare earth elements (RE) are added to the semi-steel material of the present invention. Rare earth elements are relatively active and can significantly purify the steel quality, deoxidize and desulfurize, modify inclusions, etc. in semi-steel, and can also spheroidize carbides in semi-steel. There are two ways to add rare earth in semi-steel. One is to add it in the form of master alloy, and the other is to add it in the form of rare earth silicon-calcium modifier.

[0015] In this application, the lanthanum (La) element is added in the form of a rare earth silicon calcium modifier, with a content of 50 ppm - 100 ppm; a part of the cerium (Ce) element is added in the form of a rare earth silicon calcium modifier, and the other part is added in the form of an aluminum-based master alloy. The aluminum-based master alloy is added three times, namely at the melting stage, before tapping, and at the bottom of the ladle, with one-third of the total amount added each time, and the total content is 50 ppm - 200 ppm; a large amount of research work has shown that heavy rare earth elements have a more significant effect on improving the properties of semi-steel. Therefore, the yttrium (Y) element is added in the form of an aluminum-based master alloy, and the addition method is bottom addition in the ladle, with a total content of 50 ppm - 150 ppm.

[0016] The material invented in this patent improves the toughness of the semi-steel material through a unique composition design, and the impact energy absorption at room temperature reaches 20 - 28 J. Moreover, in this invention, rare earth microalloying is achieved by adding rare earth in multiple steps, which can significantly purify the steel quality and improve the rare earth recovery rate; at the same time, by combining the joint action of light rare earth and heavy rare earth, the impact toughness of the semi-steel material is further improved.
