Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of high-carbon hard wire steel continuous casting billets, and relates to a high-drawing speed production process and application of high-carbon hard wire steel continuous casting billets, and in particular to a high-drawing speed production process of a high-carbon hard wire steel 200mm×200mm continuous casting billet. Background Art
[0002] High carbon hard wire steel is the main variety used to prepare high-strength cold-drawn steel wire. It is widely used in infrastructure construction and has important value for social development. For example, SWRH82B high carbon wire rod steel is the main raw material for the production of metal products such as prestressed steel wire, prestressed steel strand, high-strength steel wire and steel rope. Among them, the prestressed steel strand prepared with SWRH82B wire rod as raw material has been promoted and applied in my country's construction industry, and its development trend has continued to expand in recent years. In addition, this product is also widely used in marine engineering, energy engineering and water conservancy engineering and other fields. The product exhibits the characteristics of high strength, corrosion resistance, low relaxation and high toughness. Because its added value is greater than that of similar wire products, it is welcomed by the market industry. With the rapid development of the economy and society, the quality requirements of high carbon hard wire products are constantly improving. At present, the minimum specification of high carbon steel wire that can be cold-drawn at home and abroad is about no more than 0.1mm, and the quality requirements for continuous casting billets are extremely high. Only when the quality of continuous casting billets is qualified can the steel wire be guaranteed not to break during cold drawing and stranding. This puts forward high requirements on the steelmaking process and the level and stability of continuous casting technology.
[0003] Although some scholars have conducted a series of research on this product, they mainly focus on product quality defect analysis and related control process technology research. For example, the patent CN201710914175 discloses a high-carbon wire rod steel production process, CN109207837 discloses a method for producing SWRH82B wire rods, CN103667581 discloses a low-nitrogen SWRH82B steel smelting method, CN108998626 discloses a method for controlling inclusions in the production of SWRH82B steel using a carbon-free ladle, and CN10164821 discloses a prestressed steel SWRH82B large square billet continuous casting dynamic light reduction process. However, in the above-mentioned processes for the preparation of SWRH82B, the improvement of the production process of the continuous casting billet is not involved. However, the current production process of high-carbon hard wire steel continuous casting billets needs to be improved, and the quality stability of continuous casting billets is not high. In addition, with the proposal of domestic dual-carbon goals and the advancement of efficient continuous casting technology, high-carbon hard wire steel also shows great development needs in terms of energy conservation and emission reduction, cost reduction and efficiency improvement. However, it is more difficult to control the central defects of the billet when increasing the casting speed and casting molten steel at a high casting speed. How to produce high-carbon hard wire steel with high-speed continuous casting technology while ensuring that the continuous casting billet meets the subsequent processing requirements and the equipment operates stably has become a more prominent process and technical problem at present.
[0004] Therefore, how to find a more suitable high-carbon hard wire steel continuous casting billet production process, especially a high-speed casting process, to solve the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the existing process has become one of the urgent problems to be solved by many front-line researchers in the industry.
