The shortcomings are: first, the chemical composition contains copper, which is easy to crack. Second, rapid cooling is used after rolling, and the final cooling temperature is 550℃, which deteriorates the plate shape and makes it difficult to control the plate shape. Third, the quenching temperature is high, which increases energy consumption. Fourth, the specific thickness specifications of the steel plate are not given, and the applicability is poor.

[0031] The present invention is described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings using examples. These examples are merely descriptions of the best mode of carrying out the present invention and do not impose any limitation on the scope of the present invention.
[0032] The chemical composition of the steel plate of the present invention is C: 0.08-0.10%, Si: 0.22-0.32%, Mn: 1.40-1.60%, P: ≤0.013%, S: ≤0.005%, Ni: 0.22-0.32%, Mo: 0.05-0.15, V: 0.040-0.052%, Ti: 0.010-0.020%, Als: 0.020-0.035%, and the balance is Fe and unavoidable impurities.

[0033] The main steps and process parameters are as follows:
[0034] S1 Hot metal pretreatment: Hot metal is desulfurized and dephosphorized by KR stirring method, S≤0.005%, P≤0.015% in hot metal;

The total time in the furnace is greater than 270min, of which the heating section time is greater than 120min and the soaking section time is greater than 30min, to ensure that the alloy elements are fully dissolved and the slab temperature is uniform.
[0040] S7 rolling and cooling: rolling adopts two-stage controlled rolling, usually called rough rolling stage and finishing rolling stage. Rough rolling is carried out in 3800mm rough rolling mill, the start rolling temperature is above 1170℃, and the relative reduction rate of single pass is controlled at more than 15% for at least two passes. The start rolling thickness of finishing rolling is 2-4 times the thickness of finished product, the start rolling temperature of finishing rolling is 950℃, the final rolling temperature is <810℃, and the steel plate is cooled by controlled cooling after rolling, and the final cooling temperature is 650-670℃.

[0050] The mechanical properties, low temperature impact properties, and cold bending properties of the steel plate of the embodiment of the present invention were tested, and the results are shown in Table 4.
[0051] Table 4 Mechanical properties of steel plates according to the present invention
[0052]
[0053] The thickness of the test steel plate is 21mm, and single-pass forming welding is adopted. The actual linear energy of the steel plate welding reaches 103kJ / cm.

[0055]
[0056]
[0057] Table 6 Impact properties of heat affected zone of steel plate welded in Example 2
[0058]
[0059] The softening and embrittlement of the heat affected zone of the weld joint is the main problem of the weldability heat affected zone. As can be seen from the above table, after the steel plate is subjected to high-energy line gas-electrode vertical welding, the strength and low-temperature impact toughness of the weld joint still remain at a high level, indicating that the steel plate has good high-energy line weldability.
[0060] From the attached Figure 3 From the perspective of optical metallographic structure, after the steel plate is welded with a high input energy of 103kJ / cm, the grains in the coarse-grained area of the welding heat affected zone are not seriously coarsened, and the structure is mainly bainite. The lath bundles of these relatively fine bainite structures are arranged regularly and the bundles are staggered. This structure has good crack arrest properties; this is also the reason why the heat affected zone of the steel plate maintains good toughness after high input energy welding.
[0061] From the attached Figure 4From the TEM structure, the grain boundaries in the coarse-grained zone are clear, the lath bainite extends from the grain boundary to the grain, and has a high dislocation density; in the fine-grained zone, there are a large number of dislocations in the ferrite grains and on the grain boundaries, and there are dispersed particles precipitated, and the dislocations and precipitated particles are intertwined.
[0062] In summary, the present invention adopts a quenching and tempering process to produce a 10-45mm thick Q490RW high-strength steel plate for oil storage tanks and a production method, the steel plate has a yield strength of ≥490MPa, a tensile strength of 610-730MPa, an elongation after fracture of ≥17%, and an impact energy of -20°C of ≥200J. The gas-electric vertical welding method is adopted, and the impact energy of the heat-affected zone at -20°C is still above 47J under a welding heat input of 100kJ / cm, and the steel plate has good welding performance and is suitable for manufacturing key equipment components such as large storage tanks.
[0063] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should all fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
