TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of molten aluminum smelting and casting, and particularly relates to a method for evaluating the process level of in-furnace refining of molten aluminum. BACKGROUND
[0002] Aluminum alloy is one of the most widely used metal materials, and is widely used in the fields of automobile manufacturing, aerospace, shipbuilding, construction, electrical appliance manufacturing and chemical industry. With the rapid development of industry, the use range of aluminum alloy is becoming wider and wider, and the product quality requirement is becoming higher and higher. As a key process determining the quality of aluminum alloy products, molten aluminum refining can be divided into pre-furnace refining, in-furnace refining and online refining according to the refining position. Due to the technical difficulty and equipment condition limitation, most production lines do not adopt pre-furnace refining. Therefore, for most aluminum alloy production lines, in-furnace refining is the first step, and is an important factor determining the product level of refined molten aluminum. The evaluation of the refining process level of molten aluminum is generally evaluated by product detection, and it is difficult to make quantitative evaluation of each refining link, especially the in-furnace refining process level. SUMMARY
[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide a method for evaluating the in-furnace refining process level of molten aluminum, to realize quantitative evaluation of the in-furnace refining process level of molten aluminum, and to further accurately design the in-furnace refining process according to the product quality requirement.
[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:
[0005] A method for evaluating the in-furnace refining process level of molten aluminum, comprising the following steps:
[0006] Step 1: sampling after in-furnace refining of molten aluminum:
[0007] According to the process system, sequentially perform first, second, third and fourth molten aluminum refining in the smelting furnace or holding furnace, complete the in-furnace refining, and take two mushroom samples for each refining for inspection;
[0008] Step 2: metallographic microscopic detection:
[0009] The labeled mushroom-like sample is made into a 20x20x20mm block sample, and the sample is polished into a mirror surface on an automatic polishing machine, washed with water and dried with a hair dryer, then the magnification of the microscope is selected to be 200x under the metallographic microscope to observe the inclusion of the polished surface in the aluminum melt, and three observation surfaces are locked to take photos at different positions for each sample; The magnification of the microscope is selected to be 200x, because the non-metallic inclusions in the aluminum melt are easy to remove and the size is more than 10 microns, and the impurities above 20 microns in the unrefined melt are clearly visible under the metallographic microscope, and the magnification of 200x can not only observe the inclusions above 20 microns in size, but also take into account the inclusions below 15 microns in size, which is easy to count and calculate;
[0010] Step three, analyze the metallographic photo using image j software and calculate the deslagging rate:
[0011] (1) Calibration: calibrate the size of the photo according to the actual size;
[0012] (2) Mark the inclusion position: use the different gray values of inclusions and aluminum matrix to automatically count, or manually mark the position of inclusions;
[0013] (3) Calculate the inclusion cross-sectional area: use the software's built-in calculation module to automatically calculate the cross-sectional area occupied by the inclusion;
[0014] (4) Export data: export the data to an Excel table for deslagging rate calculation, the calculation formula is as follows:
[0015]
[0016] Take 15 fields on each 20x20mm sample observation surface to calculate the average value, calculate the deslagging rate of two samples obtained by each refining and then take the average value; Combined with computer statistical analysis technology and software and graphic analysis system, the inclusions are quantitatively evaluated, because the traditional metallographic method uses a metallographic microscope to observe the inclusions in the metallographic phase, the detection accuracy is not high, and the use of computer software image j can quickly detect the size and number of inclusions in the melt, the metallographic photo under 200x is a rectangular picture with a length of about 723μm and a width of about 543μm, and its area is about 391866μm 2 , suitable for analysis with image j software; The inclusion content calculation uses area ratio, and the deslagging rate calculation uses the inclusion content calculation value before and after refining, and the larger the deslagging rate value, the better the refining effect;
[0017] Step four, evaluate the single-furnace refining process level according to the deslagging rate:
[0018] The process level of single in-furnace refining is classified according to the slagging rate, and the rating standards are as follows and shown in Table 1:
[0019] (1) When the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 43% in the first refining, the rating is level one; when the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 39% but less than 43%, the rating is level two; when the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 35% but less than 39%, the rating is level three; and when the slagging rate is less than or equal to 35%, the rating is level four;
[0020] (2) When the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 24% in the second refining, the rating is level one; when the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 21% but less than 24%, the rating is level two; when the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 18% but less than 21%, the rating is level three; and when the slagging rate is less than or equal to 15%, the rating is level four;
[0021] (3) When the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 16% in the third refining, the rating is level one; when the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 12% but less than 16%, the rating is level two; when the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 9% but less than 12%, the rating is level three; and when the slagging rate is less than or equal to 9%, the rating is level four;
[0022] (4) When the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 8% in the fourth refining, the rating is level one; when the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 5% but less than 8%, the rating is level two; when the slagging rate is greater than or equal to 3% but less than 5%, the rating is level three; and when the slagging rate is less than or equal to 3%, the rating is level four;
[0023] In the above standards, level one is the high-quality level, level two is the good level, level three is the general level, and level four is the unqualified level;
[0024]
[0025] Since the slag content in the aluminum melt is continuously reduced with the deepening of in-furnace refining, the slagging rate of single in-furnace refining is also continuously reduced, therefore, corresponding rating standards are set for different refining times, and the slagging rate corresponding to different values;
[0026] Step five, evaluating the total in-furnace refining process level according to the rating of single in-furnace refining:
[0027] The total in-furnace refining process level is classified according to the slagging rate and the rating of single in-furnace refining, and the rating standards are as follows and shown in Table 2:
[0028] (1) When the rating of the current three refining is level one, the total in-furnace refining process level is rated as level one; or when the rating of the first refining is level one, the rating of the second and third refining includes one level one, and the rating of the fourth refining is at least level three, the total in-furnace refining process level is rated as level one;
[0029] (2) When the rating of the first refining is level one, and the rating of the second and third refining is level two, the total in-furnace refining process level is rated as level two; or when the rating of the first refining is level two, and the rating of the second and third refining is level one, the total in-furnace refining process level is rated as level two;
[0030] (3) the current two refining rating is at least two levels, and the third refining is at least three levels, the total process level of the in-furnace refining is rated as three levels;
[0031] (4) the current two refining rating includes one two level and one three level, and the third refining is at least three levels, the total process level of the in-furnace refining is rated as four levels; or the current two refining rating is three levels, and the third refining and the fourth refining are at least two levels, the total process level of the in-furnace refining is rated as four levels;
[0032] (5) the current two refining rating includes one four level, the total process level of the in-furnace refining is rated as five levels;
[0033] In the above-mentioned standard, the first level is a high-quality level, the second level is a good level, the third level is a general level, the fourth level is a qualified level, and the fifth level is unqualified;
[0034]
[0035] The total process level of the in-furnace refining is evaluated by a comprehensive method, the evaluation method is based on the evaluation data and the rating results in step four, so the samples of the in-furnace refining must be detected four times, and the refining after the fourth time of the in-furnace refining is mainly for cooling the cold material to prevent the aluminum melt from overheating, so the evaluation method of the application is only for the first four times of the in-furnace refining.
[0036] In order to further realize the application, the process system in step one includes adding a refining agent, introducing a refining gas, and synchronously starting stirring after the temperature of the aluminum melt is controlled, and the in-furnace refining is completed according to the process parameters.
[0037] In order to further realize the application, the process parameters include a refining temperature, a refining agent and an adding amount thereof, a gas flow, a refining time, a standing time, and a refining times.
[0038] In order to further realize the application, the high-quality level in step five has the conditions for producing double-zero aluminum foil, the second level is a good level and has the conditions for producing single-zero aluminum foil, the third level is a general level and has the conditions for producing ordinary aluminum alloy plate and strip, the fourth level is a qualified level and is used for producing low-end aluminum alloy plate and strip, and the fifth level is unqualified and cannot produce aluminum alloy plate and strip products.
[0039] The beneficial effects of the application compared with the prior art are as follows:
[0040] The technical scheme adopted in the application is that the selected equipment is the equipment owned by most research institutes and enterprise detection departments, and the calculation method is simple and can be understood and applied to production practice by ordinary technical management personnel.
[0041] The application accurately calculates the slagging rate of single furnace refining by metallographic microscope detection and using image j software, and completes the evaluation of the process level of each furnace refining in a grading method according to the slagging rate data, and then completes the comprehensive grading evaluation of the total process of furnace refining according to the process level rating results of single furnace refining.
[0042] The application formulates data standards for grading evaluation of the furnace refining process according to the slagging rate, and makes detailed instructions for the level required to be reached by the aluminum melt smelting process of various products in aluminum alloy production, especially continuous casting and rolling production, thereby providing quantitative reference data for production technicians, which can be used for product production scheme design and for finding reasons when product defects occur.
