AI Technical Summary
The existing O22Cr25Ni7Mo4N stainless steel has low strength, which makes it difficult to meet the increasing strength requirements. At the same time, it is difficult to control the Si and W elements in the smelting process, and the low-temperature aging process makes it difficult to stably control the ratio of austenite to ferrite.
The process of induction vacuum degassing furnace smelting and protective atmosphere electroslag furnace remelting is adopted, combined with high temperature solution treatment and low temperature aging heat treatment to control the Si and W content in the steel. The quality of steel ingots is improved by nitrogen addition in the induction vacuum degassing furnace and electroslag furnace remelting to ensure phase ratio balance. High temperature solution treatment and low temperature aging treatment are used to improve the strength of the steel.
It significantly improves the tensile strength and yield strength of austenitic-ferritic stainless steel, ensuring excellent resistance to abrasion and corrosion under high strength and good ductility, making it suitable for harsh corrosive environments.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of austenitic-ferritic stainless steel technology, specifically to a high-strength austenitic-ferritic stainless steel and its preparation process. Background Technology
[0002] Duplex stainless steel refers to stainless steel where ferrite and austenite each comprise approximately 50%. This type of steel combines the characteristics of both austenitic and ferritic stainless steels. Compared to ferritic stainless steel, it has higher plasticity and toughness, no room temperature brittleness, and significantly improved resistance to intergranular corrosion and weldability. It also retains the 475℃ brittleness and high thermal conductivity of ferritic stainless steel, and exhibits superplasticity. Compared to austenitic stainless steel, it has higher strength and significantly improved resistance to intergranular corrosion and chloride stress corrosion. Duplex stainless steel also has excellent pitting corrosion resistance and is a nickel-saving stainless steel.
[0003] O22Cr25Ni7Mo4N is an austenitic-ferritic super duplex stainless steel. It is the best steel in terms of resistance to localized corrosion, especially pitting corrosion. It also has the characteristics of high strength, resistance to chloride stress corrosion, and weldability. It is suitable for harsh corrosive environments such as marine, petrochemical, oil refining, vacuum salt production, and flue gas desulfurization.
[0004] However, the main disadvantage of O22Cr25Ni7Mo4N stainless steel is its low strength. After solution treatment, its yield strength is about 550MPa and its tensile strength is about 800MPa, which is difficult to meet the increasing demand for stainless steel strength. In addition, (1) the yield of Si element in the smelting process is not very stable, and it is difficult to accurately control the Si content in the steel to about 0.54%; (2) the yield of W element in the smelting process fluctuates relatively much, and W element has a high melting point and high specific gravity, making it difficult to melt quickly and distribute evenly in the molten steel. It is quite difficult to accurately and evenly control the W content in the steel to about 2.5%; (3) the main difficulty of the low temperature aging process is to stabilize and accurately control the ratio of austenite and ferrite duplex structure in the shaft forging to about 50%.

[0066] ① Prepare the raw materials by mixing the ingredients according to the mass percentage of their chemical components;
[0067] ② Induction vacuum degassing furnace smelting
[0068] B1. Add the raw materials prepared in step ① to the induction vacuum degassing furnace for melting. The melting rate of the induction vacuum degassing furnace is 40 kg / min. At the same time, lime and fluorite powder are added to form slag to prevent the molten steel from being exposed.
[0069] B2. Add diffusion deoxidizer while the raw materials are melting; add the diffusion deoxidizer after the molten pool is visible, adding 5 kg every 30 minutes;
[0070] The diffusion deoxidizer is an Al-CaO agent; wherein the weight ratio of CaO to Al is 80:20; the diffusion deoxidizer is added to the molten steel at a rate of 6.6 kg / t.
[0071] B3. When the temperature inside the smelting furnace rises to 1606℃ and the raw materials are completely melted into molten steel, samples are taken for full analysis, and the chemical composition of the molten steel is adjusted according to the chemical composition of the high-strength austenitic-ferritic stainless steel in Example 1.
[0072] B4. After the results of the full analysis of the sample reach the chemical composition of the high-strength austenitic-ferritic stainless steel in Example 1 of Table 1, slag removal is performed.
[0073] B5. After slag removal is completed, feed aluminum wire and J-Ca wire for pre-deoxidation;
[0074] The mass ratio of the fed aluminum wire to the molten steel is 0.9:1000; the mass ratio of the fed J-Ca wire to the molten steel is 0.1-0.115:1000.
[0075] B6. After the aluminum wire and J-Ca wire are fed, the smelting furnace is closed and a vacuum is drawn to allow the molten steel to be vacuum treated for 20 minutes at a vacuum degree ≤100Pa and a temperature of 1611℃.
[0076] B7. After the vacuum treatment of the molten steel is completed, a vacuum breaking treatment is carried out. After the vacuum breaking treatment, a sample is taken for full analysis to verify the accuracy of the chemical composition adjustment in B3. If the chemical composition in the molten steel does not match the chemical composition in the high-strength austenitic-ferritic stainless steel of Example 1, it is adjusted again to match the chemical composition in the high-strength austenitic-ferritic stainless steel of Example 1.
[0077] B8. Final deoxidation: Heat the molten steel to 1611℃, then add cerium to the molten steel, feed J-Ca wire at the same time, and add nickel-magnesium alloy before tapping the steel. Final deoxidation ensures that the oxygen content is ≤30ppm.

During filling, control the current at 9000A, the voltage at 36V, and the time at 30min.
[0084] Before inserting the remelting electrode rod into the molten slag, the remelting electrode is cut with a cap (the cap is a concentrated shrinkage area set to prevent shrinkage and voids during the cooling process of the molten steel), and then the remelting electrode rod is baked at a temperature greater than 500℃ for 2 hours. Argon gas is introduced before arc ignition by introducing argon gas into the crystallizer for 5 minutes with the proportional valve opening at 30%. When obtaining the steel ingot through electroslag remelting, the arc is ignited using stainless steel shavings, and a bottom pad (a 20-40mm piece is cut on the electrode after the cap is cut) is sawn from this steel grade and baked at ≥500℃ for 2 hours.
[0085] C3. After electroslag remelting and filling, the steel ingot is slowly cooled and then demolded to obtain an electroslag remelted ingot;
[0086] The slow cooling of the steel ingot is as follows: first, natural cooling for 150 minutes, then hood cooling for ≥24 hours, and finally air cooling to ≤50℃;
[0087] ④ Forged round steel
[0088] D1. Flatten both ends of the electroslag remelted ingot obtained in step ③, and cut off the bottom pad and shrinkage cavity; heat to 850℃ for a homogenization time of more than 1.5 hours, and heat to 1160℃; perform upsetting, drawing, and rounding forging on the electroslag remelted ingot, and air cool it after forging to obtain round steel.
[0089] ⑤Rough turning of round steel bars
[0090] After air cooling in step 4, the ends of the round steel are flattened, rough machined, and inspected for defects before being sent for heat treatment.
[0091] ⑥ Heat treatment

[0105] B4. After the results of the full analysis of the sample reach the chemical composition of the high-strength austenitic-ferritic stainless steel in Example 2, slag removal is performed.
