[0040] In the present invention, the mass percentage of Ni in the iron-based high-temperature alloy is 0.01-0.05%, for example, it can be 0.01%, 0.015%, 0.02%, 0.025%, 0.03%, 0.035%, 0.04%, 0.045% or 0.05%, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0041] In the present invention, the mass percentage of N in the iron-based high-temperature alloy is 0.005-0.012%, for example, it can be 0.005%, 0.006%, 0.007%, 0.008%, 0.009%, 0.01%, 0.0105%, 0.011%, 0.0115% or 0.012%, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0042] In the present invention, the mass percentage of C in the iron-based high-temperature alloy is 0.05-0.15%, for example, it can be 0.05%, 0.06%, 0.07%, 0.08%, 0.09%, 0.1%, 0.11%, 0.12%, 0.13%, 0.14% or 0.15%, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0043] In the present invention, the mass percentage of the iron-based high-temperature alloy Ti is 0.0005-0.0015%, for example, it can be 0.0005%, 0.0006%, 0.0007%, 0.0008%, 0.0009%, 0.0010%, 0.0011%, 0.0012%, 0.0013%, 0.0014% or 0.0015%, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0044] In the present invention, when C, N and B are controlled to be at specific contents, the strength of the weld metal decreases due to the reduction of the C content; the toughness decreases when the C content is increased, and the tendency of pores and cracks to appear in the weld increases. N solid solution in the matrix can improve the strength, and excessive N will form nitrides, which are easy to become crack sources and are not conducive to high temperature strength. B is easily combined with N to form BN during the solidification of the molten pool metal, reducing the content of solid solution N; B can also refine the grains; solid solution B can inhibit the precipitation of proeutectoid ferrite between austenite crystals, improve crack resistance, and reduce hydrogen embrittlement. However, when the B element content is high, if the N content is too high, coarse BN particles may be formed, which will seriously weaken the toughness of the steel itself, and will also consume the B element, which is not conducive to the high temperature strength of the steel. Comprehensively consider the relationship between C, N and B, that is, to improve the welding processability, and at the same time control the amount and distribution of carbides to prevent the formation of nitrides.

[0045] In the present invention, the content of Cr element is controlled to ensure that it can be dissolved in the matrix within this range, play a role of solid solution strengthening, and form a Cr2O3 oxide film to improve the high temperature oxidation and corrosion resistance, form carbides, and play a precipitation strengthening role. Although increasing the Cr content is beneficial to high temperature corrosion resistance, too high a Cr content will reduce the endurance strength.

[0046] In the present invention, W is a typical solid solution strengthening element. Since the atomic radius of W is larger than that of Mo, the lattice distortion caused by W solid solution is larger than that of Mo element, so the solid solution strengthening effect of W is more obvious than that of Mo. However, when the W content is too high, it is easy to cause the generation of delta ferrite, which is very unfavorable to the comprehensive properties of steel. Therefore, the present invention controls W to be 3-4%.

[0047] In the present invention, by controlling the Nb and V contents within a specific range and utilizing the synergistic effect between the two, stable carbides can be formed, thereby improving the creep limit and the endurance strength of the steel.

[0048] In the present invention, controlling the Co element to be within a specific content range can inhibit the formation of delta ferrite in the steel, thereby ensuring the performance of the steel.

[0049] In the present invention, Cu solid solution in the matrix can hinder dislocation movement and thus reduce the creep rate, but excessive Cu content is prone to cracking and increases crack sensitivity, so in the present invention, the Cu content is controlled to be 1-2%.

[0050] In the present invention, Ti is controlled to be 0.0005-0.0015% because excessive Ti is prone to form nitrides, and the Ti content must be strictly controlled to prevent it from combining with C and N to form carbonitrides.

[0051] Furthermore, the present invention exemplarily provides a method for preparing the aforementioned iron-based high-temperature alloy, comprising: preparing the materials according to the mass percentage ratio, then smelting, and then preparing a thick wire with a diameter of 5-7mm through a down-draw continuous casting and winding system combined with a cooling circulation system, and then undergoing an electric pulse toughening drawing process, controlling the drawing process temperature to 1000-1100°C, first drawing to 3-5mmmm, then drawing to 2-2.5mm, and finally drawing to 1.5-1.7mm to make a special wire for arc additive.

[0052] Among them, if the required high-temperature alloy is not a welding wire type high-temperature alloy but an alloy body in other forms, it can be cast after smelting, such as powder making or direct casting to form a primary product of a designed shape.

[0053] Furthermore, the present invention provides an additive manufacturing method for heat-resistant steel, the additive manufacturing method comprising: manufacturing the aforementioned iron-based high-temperature alloy wire by cold metal transition arc additive manufacturing;

[0054] During the manufacturing process, a protective atmosphere can be designed, such as argon or other commonly used protective gases in the art.

[0055] The diameter of the wire used in the manufacturing is 1.5-1.7 mm, for example, 1.5 mm, 1.55 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.65 mm or 1.7 mm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0056] Among them, the wire feeding speed in the manufacturing is 3-5m / min, for example, it can be 3m / min, 3.2m / min, 3.4m / min, 3.6m / min, 3.8m / min, 4m / min, 4.2m / min, 4.4m / min, 4.6m / min, 4.8m / min or 5m / min, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0057] Wherein, the cladding speed in the manufacturing is 0.3-0.6 m / min, for example, it can be 0.3 m / min, 0.32 m / min, 0.34 m / min, 0.36 m / min, 0.38 m / min, 0.4 m / min, 0.42 m / min, 0.44 m / min, 0.46 m / min, 0.48 m / min, 0.5 m / min, 0.52 m / min, 0.54 m / min, 0.56 m / min, 0.58 m / min or 0.6 m / min, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0058] Among them, the welding current in the manufacturing is 188-250A, for example, it can be 188A, 190A, 195A, 200A, 205A, 210A, 215A, 220A, 225A, 230A, 235A, 240A, 245A or 250A, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0059] Among them, the welding voltage in the manufacturing is 22-23V, for example, it can be 22V, 22.1V, 22.2V, 22.3V, 22.4V, 22.5V, 22.6V, 22.7V, 22.8V, 22.9V or 23V, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range also meet the requirements.

[0060] Furthermore, the product obtained by additive manufacturing can be heat treated, specifically including keeping at 1050-1100°C for 1-1.5h, and then cooling to 750-800°C for 3-3.5h. The keeping at 1050-1100°C for 1-1.5h can improve the element segregation and non-uniform precipitation inside the organization during the non-equilibrium solidification process; the keeping at 750-800°C for 3-3.5h can make the secondary strengthening phase particles fully precipitate, and obtain better strength-plasticity synergy performance.
