[0015] Step 2: pre-melting the prepared slag system, and then cooling the pre-melted slag, breaking it, and sealing it for storage;

[0016] Step 3: The slag system obtained in step 2 is used for smelting of C-HRA-3 alloy.

[0017] Furthermore, in step 3, an electroslag furnace with an inert gas atmosphere protection function is used for smelting, and the smelting process includes:

[0018] Step 301: Loading smelting electrode rods into the electroslag furnace crystallizer, the electrode composition meets the composition requirements of C-HRA-3 heat-resistant alloy; checking and testing the water, electricity and gas systems of the electroslag furnace equipment, and preparing them for use;

[0020] Step 303: After the arc of the electroslag furnace is started, the slag mixed with aluminum particles is added into the electroslag furnace crystallizer for electroslag smelting.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. The slag system of the present invention can balance the easily oxidized and burned Zr, Ti, B and other elements in the metal molten pool by adding ZrO2, TiO2, and B2O3, reduce the burning of Zr, Ti, and B, and ensure the narrow composition control of Zr, Ti, B and other elements in the steel slag; balance the Ca content in the metal molten pool by adding CaO, and balance the Mg content in the metal molten pool by adding MgO; balance the Al content in the metal molten pool by relying on Al2O3 in the slag and adding aluminum particles to the slag for deoxidation when the slag system is used; the slag system of the present invention contains a relatively high CaO content, reaching 1 9.1% to 19.9%, which can achieve a good desulfurization effect and is suitable for smelting special steels and alloys with an S content of ≤0.002% or less; the slag system of the present invention accurately controls the content of each component, and the fluctuation range of the slag system components is small, thereby ensuring the good stability of the slag system metallurgical properties, ensuring that the elements of the steel ingot obtained by electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy are evenly distributed in the length direction and meet the control standard, the surface quality is good, the slag skin thickness is relatively uniformly distributed, and the average slag skin thickness in the middle section of the steel ingot is ≤2mm, for example ≤1.3mm.

[0023] 2. The slag system of the present invention is pre-melted during use to form relatively stable compounds between the slag system components, and large component fluctuations and performance differences are not likely to occur during the electroslag smelting process.

[0024] 3. In the slag system of the present invention, the addition amount of CaF2 is relatively low, which can reduce environmental pollution and harm to human body.

[0025] In the present invention, fine-tuning can be performed based on the slag composition range to achieve more preferred combination solutions, which are considered as the protection scope of the present invention. Some advantages of the present invention may become obvious from the description or be understood through the implementation of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with examples, wherein the examples constitute a part of the present invention 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.

[0027] The object of the present invention is to provide a power-saving desulfurization slag system for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy and a method of using the same. Among them, the chemical composition mass percentage of C-HRA-3 heat-resistant alloy is: Cr: 21.0% ~ 23.0%; C: 0.04% ~ 0.07%; Mn ≤ 0.3%; Co: 11.0% ~ 13.0%; Mo: 6.0% ~ 9.0%; Ti: 0.3% ~ 0.5%; Al: 0.8% ~ 1.3%; W: 0.1% ~ 1.0%; B: 0.002% ~ 0.005%; Zr: 0.02% ~ 0.15%; Nb < 0.5%; V ≤ 0.5%; Cu ≤ 0.15%; P < 0.008%; S < 0.002%; N ≤ 0.015%, Mg: 0.005% ~ 0.02%; Ca: ≤ 0.01%; the balance is nickel and unavoidable impurity elements.

[0028] The existing slag systems used for electroslag remelting of C-HRA-3 alloys are mostly roughly adjusted based on production experience, lacking theoretical design rationality. The existing slag systems have poor component stability, are prone to fluctuations, and have poor desulfurization effects; therefore, after in-depth research, the inventors have provided a low-pollution, power-saving, desulfurization slag system for electroslag remelting of C-HRA-3 alloys based on the alloy element system of C-HRA-3 alloys and the thermodynamic phase diagram of the multi-component slag system, according to the element balance and the property matching of the metal material / slag system. The slag system has a stable composition structure, can balance the elements such as Zr and Ti that are easily burned between steel slags, has the advantages of efficient desulfurization and energy saving, and meets the electroslag smelting requirements of C-HRA-3 heat-resistant alloys.

[0029] Specifically, the mass percentage of each component in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system used for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy is: CaF2: 49.5%~49.9%, Al2O3: 25.1%~25.9%, CaO: 19.1%~19.9%, MgO: 3.4%~3.7%, ZrO2: 0.46%~0.49%, TiO2: 0.46%~0.49%, B2O3: 0.01%~0.03%, SiO2<0.5%, and the rest are impurities.

[0030] Specifically, the above-mentioned energy-saving desulfurization slag system used for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy and the C-HRA-3 alloy material also need to meet the following relationship:

[0031] 1) The ratio of the content of Al2O3 in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy to the minimum content of 0.8% of the component Al in the alloy is 31.375-32.375;

[0032] 2) The ratio of the content of ZrO2 in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system used for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy to the minimum content of Zr in the alloy of 0.03% is 15.3-16.4;

[0033] 3) The ratio of the content of TiO2 in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system used for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy to the minimum content of 0.3% of the component Ti in the alloy is 1.53 to 1.64;

[0034] 4) The ratio of the content of B2O3 in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy to the minimum content of component B in the alloy of 0.002% is 5 to 15 (for example, 5 to 10);

[0035] 5) The ratio of the content of MgO in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy to the minimum content of Mg in the alloy of 0.005% is 680-740 (e.g. 680-730);

[0036] 6) One of the important functions of CaO in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system used for electroslag remelting of C-HRA-3 alloy is desulfurization. The ratio of the CaO content in the power-saving desulfurization slag system to the maximum value of 0.002% required for the component S in the alloy is 9550~9950 (for example, 9600~9950).

[0037] After in-depth research, the inventors found that when the above-mentioned correlation control is carried out on Al2O3, ZrO2, TiO2, B2O3, MgO in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system and Al, Zr, Ti, B, Mg between the alloys, the contents of the main easily oxidized alloying elements Al, Zr, Ti, B, Mg in the alloy ingot can be guaranteed to be qualified. In addition, the elements such as V, Cr, C, Mn, Co, Mo, W in the alloy are difficult to be oxidized and the desulfurization requirements are met.

[0038] It should be noted that the functions of the components in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system are as follows:

[0039] CaF2 in the slag system can reduce the melting point, viscosity and surface tension of the slag. However, compared with other components, CaF2 has a higher conductivity; the role of CaO in the slag system is mainly to increase the basicity of the slag and improve the desulfurization efficiency; Al2O3 in the slag system can significantly reduce the conductivity of the slag, reduce power consumption and improve productivity.

[0040] MgO has two functions in the slag system. First, since the C-HRA-3 heat-resistant alloy has extremely strict requirements on the mass fraction of H, and the CaO content in this slag system is high and easy to absorb hydrogen, a certain amount of MgO needs to be added to the slag system of the present invention to reduce the permeability of H. MgO also has the function of reducing oxygen and nitrogen in the molten pool, ensuring that Mg in the metal molten pool is not completely oxidized; second, MgO can form a semi-solidified film on the surface of the slag pool to reduce the heat loss radiated from the slag surface to the atmosphere.

[0041] The role of ZrO2, TiO2 and B2O3 in the slag system is to balance the Zr, Ti and B elements in the slag system that are easily burned.

[0042] Unlike the existing high-fluorine slag system with a CaF2 mass content of 60% to 70%, the CaF2 used in the present invention is a power-saving desulfurization slag system with a mass content of 49.5% to 49.9%. The CaF2 content in the slag system is reduced, and the CaO and Al2O3 contents are increased. The inventors found in their research that both CaF2 and MgO are related to the viscosity of the slag system. The addition amount of CaF2 is negatively correlated with the viscosity of the slag system. As the addition amount of CaF2 increases, the viscosity of the slag system will decrease. The slag system has a low melting point and viscosity, and good fluidity, which is conducive to the smooth progress of the electroslag remelting process. Therefore, after in-depth research, the present invention accurately controls the addition amounts of CaF2 and MgO in the slag system of the present invention to be 49.5% to 49.9% and 3.4% to 3.7% respectively, ensuring that the viscosity of the slag system of the present invention at 1800°C is ≤0.05Pa·s. When the slag system is smelted under this viscosity, the slag skin on the body of the electroslag ingot is uniform, the average thickness of the slag skin is ≤2mm, and the slag skin and the ingot body are easy to peel off when the electroslag ingot is cooled after smelting.

[0043] Specifically, the melting point of the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system is 1310-1400°C (e.g., 1340-1380°C); at 1700-1800°C, the density is 2.58-2.63 g / cm 3 , viscosity 0.01-0.02 Pa·s (e.g. 0.01-0.017 Pa·s), conductivity 2.7-3.3 S / cm. The use of this slag system can save 7%-9% of electricity, and can achieve an average slag skin thickness of ≤2mm on the body of the electroslag ingot.

[0044] In the production of C-HRA-3 heat-resistant alloy by electroslag remelting, the physical and chemical properties of the slag system affect the production quality of the steel ingot, as follows:

[0045] (1) Melting point: The melting point of slag will affect the conductivity, viscosity and calorific value of the slag system. Too high or too low melting point is not conducive to physical and chemical reactions such as dephosphorization and desulfurization, and it is also easy to cause internal and surface quality problems of steel ingot products, and metallurgical defects such as cavities, pores and inclusions. The melting point range designed in the present invention is 1290-1400℃, which ensures that the surface quality of the steel ingot is uniform, no pores are generated on the surface, and has a good effect of saving electricity.

[0046] (2) Viscosity: The viscosity of the slag affects the circulation flow rate of the slag. Due to the electromagnetic stirring force, the low-viscosity slag will have a strong stirring effect, which can enhance the fluidity of the slag, facilitate heat transfer, and enhance the diffusion of the reaction interface. In the present invention, the viscosity is ≤0.05Pa·s at 1800°C, which ensures that the steel slag in the smelting has good fluidity, improves the heat and mass transfer efficiency in the furnace, and reduces energy loss. Ensure that the average thickness of the slag skin of the electroslag ingot is less than 2mm.

[0047] (3) Density: The density of the slag system mainly determines the amount of slag used in the electroslag remelting process, the rate and residence time of the melting point passing through the slag layer during the electroslag remelting process, and thus determines the purification effect during the electroslag remelting process, as well as the difficulty of slag-metal separation during the electroslag remelting process. Therefore, the selection of a suitable slag system density has a certain influence on the metallurgical quality of the electroslag remelting process. In the present invention, the density is 2.58-2.63 g / cm at 1800°C. 3 , ensuring uniform quality of the steel ingot and low impurity content, while ensuring better separation between the steel ingot and the electroslag surface.

[0048] (4) Electrical conductivity: The slag pool can be regarded as a resistor in the circuit of the entire electroslag remelting process, providing the required resistance heat for remelting. When the current, voltage and effective area of ​​the slag pool are constant, the distance between the consumable electrode and the molten metal pool is proportional to the conductivity of the slag. If the conductivity is too small, the inter-electrode distance (the distance between the consumable electrode and the molten metal pool) will be shortened. If the inter-electrode distance is too short, the electroslag remelting process will be unstable. At the same time, it will also affect the reaction time of the slag during the falling of the small metal droplets, which is not conducive to the removal of inclusions. In the present invention, the electrical conductivity is 2.7~3.3S / cm at 1800℃, which provides sufficient heat transfer for the electroslag smelting process and ensures the smooth progress of the electroslag smelting process.

[0049] Preferably, the mass percentage of each component in the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system used for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy is: CaF2: 49.55%~49.9%, Al2O3: 25.3%~25.9%, CaO: 19.3%~19.9%, MgO: 3.41%~3.68%, ZrO2: 0.46%~0.49%, TiO2: 0.46%~0.49%, B2O3: 0.01%~0.028%, SiO2<0.05%, and the rest are impurities.

[0050] The present invention has been found through hot state experiments and production research to ensure that the composition of the electroslag is stable during a long period of smelting and the slag skin surface is uniform. For example, the content of some components of the slag after use is CaF2: 49.6% to 49.9%, Al2O3: 25.5% to 25.9%, CaO: 19.7% to 19.9%, MgO: 3.4% to 3.5%, ZrO2: 0.47% to 0.49%, TiO2: 0.46% to 0.48%, and B2O3: 0.01% to 0.012%.

[0051] On the other hand, the present invention also provides a method for using the above-mentioned power-saving desulfurization slag system for electroslag remelting C-HRA-3 alloy, comprising the following steps:

[0052] Step 1: using industrial pure CaF2, CaO, Al2O3, MgO, ZrO2, TiO2 and B2O3 to prepare a slag system according to mass percentage;

[0053] Step 2: pre-melting the prepared slag system, controlling the target composition of the pre-melted slag within the specified composition range of the slag system of the present invention, cooling to 25-50° C., crushing, and sealing for storage;

[0054] Step 3: The slag system obtained in step 2 is used for smelting of C-HRA-3 alloy.

[0055] Specifically, in the above step 2, the prepared slag system is pre-melted in a heating furnace, the furnace temperature is raised to 1490-1500°C and maintained for 20-35 minutes, the target composition of the slag after pre-melting is controlled within the specified composition range of the present invention, and after cooling to 25-50°C, it is crushed by a crusher to a particle size of ≤0.3cm, and sealed and stored at 10Kg / bag.

[0056] Specifically, in the above step 3, an electroslag furnace with an inert gas atmosphere protection function may be used for smelting, and the smelting process includes:

[0057] Step 301: 2.5t of smelting electrode rods are loaded into the electroslag furnace crystallizer, the electrode composition meets the composition requirements of C-HRA-3 heat-resistant alloy (where Al, Ti, and B are controlled according to the middle and upper limits of C-HRA-3, and Mg and S are controlled according to the middle and lower limits of C-HRA-3), the surface of the electrode rods is polished and peeled, and the surface is glossy and has no oxide layer, and is ready for use; the water, electricity, and gas systems of the electroslag furnace are checked and tested, and are ready for use;

[0058] Step 302: Before using the electroslag smelting, unseal the sealed slag and pour it into the slag mixing hopper, add 100-150g of aluminum particles, stir and mix evenly, and set aside;

[0059] Step 303: After the arc of the electroslag furnace is started, the slag mixed with aluminum particles is added into the electroslag furnace crystallizer for electroslag smelting.

[0060] Specifically, in the above step 303, about 5 to 10 minutes after the arc is energized, the slag mixed with aluminum particles is slowly added to the electroslag furnace crystallizer. The amount of slag added within 30 minutes should not exceed 35 to 45 kg. After the metal molten pool and slag pool are initially established, the remaining slag should be added within 1 to 4 hours. The purpose of the above operation is to avoid the phenomenon of excessive slag inclusion in a short period of time causing difficulty in melting the slag after the metal molten pool and slag pool are formed in the electroslag crystallizer. At the same time, adding slag at a low speed and appropriately extending the slag adding time can delay the short-term oxidation consumption of aluminum particles in the slag to a certain extent.

[0061] Specifically, in the above step 303, during the smelting process, the timing starts from 1 hour after the electroslag furnace is powered on, and 50 to 150 g of aluminum particles are added to the slag of the electroslag crystallizer every 30 minutes until the smelting is completed.

[0062] Specifically, in the above step 3, the design range of the main key process parameters is: electrode diameter is about 375mm, mold diameter is about 435mm, slag layer design is about 150mm, the arc-starting bottom plate thickness of the electroslag furnace crystallizer should reach more than 2.2cm, the power input in the arc-starting stage is about 1400kW, the power input in the steady-state stage is 700~740kW, and the average melting rate is about 4.4kg / min.

[0063] Specifically, the smelting effect of the above step 3 is: after smelting, the elements in the length direction of the steel ingot are evenly distributed and meet the control standard, the surface quality is good, the slag skin thickness is relatively evenly distributed, and the average slag skin thickness in the middle section of the steel ingot is ≤1.4mm.

[0070] Step 3: The slag system obtained in step 2 is used for smelting of C-HRA-3 alloy.

[0078] Specifically, the smelting effect of step 3 is as follows: the ingot height after smelting is about 1.7m, the actual ingot weight is about 1.9 tons, the elements are evenly distributed along the length of the ingot and meet the control standard, the surface quality is good, the slag thickness is evenly distributed, and the average slag thickness in the middle of the ingot is ≤1.3mm.
