Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of metallurgy, and particularly relates to an oriented silicon steel with excellent electromagnetic properties in high-temperature environment and a manufacturing method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] A motor generates a large amount of heat when it rotates at high speed, causing the temperature of the iron core to rise rapidly, and the maximum temperature can even rise to 200℃. Studies have shown that a higher ambient temperature can change the magnetic domain state of non-oriented silicon steel, thereby affecting the magnetic properties of non-oriented silicon steel, resulting in reduced performance of the driving motor at high temperature and affecting the overall efficiency of the motor.

[0003] A Chinese patent specification discloses a non-oriented silicon steel for high-speed motors and a preparation method thereof (publication number CN115198198 A), which has a chemical composition by weight percentage comprising: C≤0.002%, S≤0.001%, N≤0.003%, Si: 3.0~3.4%, Al: 0.80~1.0%, Mn: 0.2~0.4%, P≤0.01%, Sn+Sb≤0.004%, Nb≤0.005%, V≤0.005%, Ti≤0.005%, Mo≤0.005%, Cr≤0.05%, Ni≤0.05%, Cu≤0.05%, 0<C+S+N≤0.005%; the yield strength of the final product is≥550MPa, the magnetic induction B5000 is≥1.65, the high-frequency iron loss P1.0 / 1000 at a thickness of 0.30mm is≤45W / kg, the high-frequency iron loss P1.0 / 1000 at a thickness of 0.25mm is≤40W / kg, and the high-frequency iron loss P1.0 / 1000 at a thickness of 0.20mm is≤35W / kg.

[0004] A Chinese patent specification also discloses a non-oriented silicon steel for high-speed rotors with a yield strength of 600MPa (publication number CN 107974620 B), which has a chemical composition by weight percentage comprising: C: 0.001~0.003%, Si: 2.6~3.4%, Mn: 0.20~0.6%, P≤0.005%, S≤0.005%, Al 0.75~0.95%, N 0.002~0.006%, Nb 0.053~0.2%. The yield strength of the non-oriented silicon steel is≥600MPa, the tensile strength is≥700MPa, P1.0 / 400≤35W / kg, and B5000≥1.60T for a finished product with a thickness not exceeding 0.35mm.

[0005] The magnetic properties of the finished product of the above non-oriented silicon steel are all at room temperature, and the magnetic properties of the non-oriented silicon steel in a high temperature environment are not involved. In a high temperature environment, the magnetic domain distribution of the non-oriented silicon steel material is more chaotic, and the domain wall movement resistance and magnetic domain rotation resistance will be significantly increased, so the magnetic induction of the non-oriented silicon steel in a high temperature environment is lower than that at room temperature or low temperature.

[0019] 7) after annealing, the insulation coating is coated by coating roller, and the insulation coating is solidified at the temperature of 440-570℃.

[0020] In step 4), the cold rolling is rolled by 6 passes.

[0021] III. Beneficial effects

[0022] The manufacturing method of the non-oriented silicon steel adopted in the application optimizes the structure of the magnetic domain in the grain, is beneficial to the movement of the magnetic domain wall, enhances the magnetization capacity of the non-oriented silicon steel at high temperature, and obtains the non-oriented silicon steel with magnetic induction B50 of 1.67T-1.68T on the basis of P1.0 / 1000=46-50W / kg at the environmental temperature of 200℃, and solves the problem that the magnetic induction of the non-oriented silicon steel in the prior art is significantly reduced in the high temperature environment.
