Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of research and development of steel products, and in particular relates to a production method of steel for high-corrosion-resistant and high-toughness zinc-aluminum-magnesium corrugated pipes. Background Art

[0002] A bellows is a piping system used to transfer liquids or gases and other media, which is characterized by a corrugated elastic structure. Bellows are widely used in many industrial fields, including petroleum, chemical, machinery and other industries. Their main function is to connect, buffer and absorb shock in the pipeline system. With the vigorous development of the petroleum and chemical industries, the market size has steadily increased. The working environment of the petrochemical industry is usually harsh, with problems such as high temperature, high humidity, corrosion, and safety hazards. Therefore, there is no domestic production experience in the development of high corrosion-resistant and high-toughness zinc-aluminum-magnesium corrugated pipe steel, which is a blank product. The steel for corrugated pipes is favored by the majority of users for its high corrosion resistance, high toughness and excellent forming properties. In order to achieve the above indicators, we at Baosteel have carried out research on the metallurgical process route for zinc-aluminum-magnesium steel for corrugated pipes.

[0003] The existing literature and patent research are as follows:

[0004] The searched patent "A bellows production and manufacturing process" describes a bellows production and manufacturing process, in which a support plate, a side plate, a support unit, a rotation unit and an auxiliary unit cooperate to complete the production and manufacturing of the bellows; it does not explain the production and manufacturing method of the steel used for the bellows.

[0005] The searched patent "A high-strength corrugated pipe" describes that a reinforcing shell is arranged on the main body of the corrugated pipe and reinforcing ribs are arranged at the upper and lower ends of the reinforcing shell, thereby protecting the main body of the corrugated pipe, making it able to withstand greater pressure and more widely used.
