Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of material forming, in particular to a method for improving utilization rate of 180MPa grade phosphorus reinforced steel casting blank. BACKGROUND

[0002] The hot storage length of strip steel is designed differently in the continuous annealing production line and the galvanizing production line of Baotou Steel, and the strip steel length in the furnace area of the continuous annealing production line is much greater than that of the galvanizing line, the strip steel length in the furnace area of the continuous annealing production line is greater than 240 meters, and the strip steel length in the furnace area of the galvanizing production line is less than 150 meters, and there is no overaging section, which results in different temperatures for cold hard strip steel to complete recovery recrystallization, and the performance of the same strength grade brand produced in the continuous annealing and galvanizing production lines has a large difference (the yield strength requirement is 180-240MPa, the yield strength of cold-rolled steel strip is 185-203MPa, and the yield strength of galvanized steel strip is 241-257MPa, which exceeds the standard requirement), and at present, the casting blank of 180MPa grade cold-rolled phosphorus reinforced steel cannot be applied to the galvanizing production line due to the design difference of the production line, and there is no way to change the other steel grades due to the high phosphorus content, so the smelting needs to be carried out separately according to the cold-rolled and galvanized contract, which results in an increase in mixed pouring blank, the utilization rate of the casting blank is only 50%, the inventory is stored for a long time, and the manufacturing cost is obviously increased. The present application optimizes the composition design of cold-rolled phosphorus reinforced steel HC180Y and galvanized phosphorus reinforced steel HX180YD+Z, and reasonably adjusts the process, realizes mutual change of the casting blank, improves the utilization rate, reduces the occupation of company funds, and achieves the purpose of reducing the production cost of phosphorus reinforced steel. SUMMARY

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the present application adopts the following technical scheme:

[0005] The present application provides a method for improving the utilization rate of 180MPa grade phosphorus reinforced steel casting blank, which comprises the following steps:

[0006] (1) the C content of the 180MPa grade phosphorus reinforced steel is controlled in the range of ≤0.003%, the Si content is controlled in the range of ≤0.04%, the Mn content is controlled in the range of 0.4-0.6%, the P content is controlled in the range of 0.03-0.04%, the S content is controlled in the range of ≤0.015%, the Ti content is controlled in the range of 0.04-0.06%, and the nitrogen content is controlled in the range of ≤0.004%;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] A method for improving the utilization rate of 180MPa grade phosphorus reinforced steel casting blank, comprising:

[0018] (1) Steelmaking adopts the process flow of molten iron→ converter steelmaking→ RH refining→ slab continuous casting process. KR molten iron desulfurization technology is adopted, and the terminal sulfur content after deep desulfurization is required to be within 0.002%. After desulfurization is completed, the desulfurization slag is thoroughly removed, and the slag removal area is required to be greater than 95%. The converter turns over and the steel is discharged. In the process of discharging, the top slag modifier is added according to the oxygen content and the amount of slag in the converter to supply the RH with phosphorus content ≤0.06%. According to the composition and temperature of the steel supplied by the converter to the RH, deep decarburization treatment is carried out, and phosphorus iron alloy is added to adjust the composition to the target value. After decarburization is completed, aluminum particles are added according to the oxygen content for deoxidization and alloying, and after circulating for ≥4 minutes, metal manganese and titanium iron alloy are added to adjust the composition to the target value. After the composition is adjusted, the vacuum circulates for ≥6 minutes. The composition of the continuous casting steel is required to be: C content control range ≤0.003%, Si content control range ≤0.04%, Mn content control range 0.4-0.6%, P content control range 0.03-0.04%, S content control range ≤0.015%, Ti content control range 0.04-0.06%, and nitrogen content control range ≤0.004%. The casting machine adopts constant speed control, and protective casting is adopted.

[0019] (2) Hot rolling adopts step-by-step heating furnace to heat the casting blank, and the hot rolling slab heating temperature is ≥1220℃. F1-F7 continuous rolling process is adopted for finishing rolling, and the finishing rolling temperature is ≥900℃ to ensure single-phase austenite rolling. The phosphorus-added high-strength IF steel is prone to form FeTiP precipitated phase during production, which reduces the content of solid solution P element, and the solid solution strengthening effect is also weakened, so the strength and performance of the steel will also be reduced. To avoid the precipitation of the phase, the coiling temperature is ≤600℃.

[0020] (3) Acid pickling and continuous rolling are carried out, and the rolling reduction rate is ≥68%.

[0021] (4) After the acid rolling process is completed, annealing is carried out in the cold rolling continuous annealing furnace, and a reducing atmosphere and a nitrogen-hydrogen mixed protective atmosphere are used for cooling in the furnace. Because the storage capacity of the steel strip in the furnace area of the cold rolling annealing production line is greater than that of the galvanizing annealing production line, the steel strip stays in the furnace area for a longer time. In order to meet the requirements that the phosphorus reinforced steel with the same composition can be applied to each production line, a lower annealing temperature should be used. The outlet temperature of the heating and soaking section is 750±10℃, the outlet temperature of the slow cooling section is ≥650℃, the outlet temperature of the fast cooling section is ≤400℃, the overaging section temperature is 200-350℃, the final cooling section outlet temperature is ≤150℃, the furnace area speed is 120-160m / min, and the elongation rate of the flattening machine is shown in Table 1.

[0022] Table 1 Elongation rate of flattening machine

[0023]

[0024] (5) After the pickling process is completed, annealing and galvanizing are performed in a galvanizing continuous annealing furnace. Since the storage capacity of the steel strip in the furnace area of the cold rolling annealing production line is greater than that of the galvanizing annealing production line, the steel strip stays in the furnace area for a longer time. In order to meet the requirement that the phosphorus reinforced steel and the same composition cast slab can be applied to each production line, a higher annealing temperature should be used for galvanizing. The process parameters of the galvanizing process are as follows: the outlet temperature of the heating and soaking section is 780±10°C, the outlet temperature of the slow cooling section is ≥620°C, the outlet temperature of the fast cooling section is ≤460°C, the temperature entering the zinc pot is 400-450°C, the furnace area speed is 75-120 m / min, and the elongation of the skin pass mill is shown in Table 2.
