BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Figure 1 This is the metallographic structure of the wear-resistant cold-rolled plate for cutting tools having both strength and toughness in Example 1 of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The method of the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0029] The present invention provides a wear-resistant cold-rolled plate for cutting tools that is both strong and tough, and the chemical composition thereof is as follows by weight percentage:

[0030] C: 0.18%~0.24%, Si: 0.17%~0.35%, Mn: 0.80%~1.0%, P≤0.020%;

[0031] S≤0.020%, Cr: 0.10%~0.25%, Ni: 0.01%~0.05%, Cu: 0.05%~0.10%, and the balance is Fe and inevitable impurities.

[0032] C: As a major solid solution strengthening element, it aims to improve the strength, hardness and wear resistance of the material while maintaining appropriate toughness. In the present invention, the C percentage content is controlled within a range of 0.16% to 0.24%.

[0033] Si: helps to improve the corrosion resistance, heat resistance and strength of the material, especially performs well in an oxidizing environment. In the present invention, the Si percentage content is controlled in the range of 0.17% to 0.35%.

[0034] Mn: Manganese is a good deoxidizer and desulfurizer, which significantly improves the strength of the material through solid solution strengthening and precipitation strengthening mechanisms. Too high a content is not good for plasticity, welding performance, and fatigue performance. Considering comprehensively, the Mn percentage content in the present invention is controlled within the range of 0.80% to 1.0%.

[0035] P: Phosphorus has solid solution strengthening and cold work hardening effects in steel, which can improve the strength and atmospheric corrosion resistance of steel. However, phosphorus will reduce the plasticity and toughness of steel, causing the steel to be easily brittle during cold working. P is not good for welding wire forming and welding. Therefore, the P percentage content in the present invention is controlled within a range of ≤0.020%.

[0036] S: S reduces the ductility and toughness of steel, but will cause cracks during forming, affecting the drawing performance of the welding wire and also being detrimental to the welding performance of the welding wire. Therefore, the S percentage content in the present invention is controlled within a range of ≤0.020%.

[0037] Cr: Mainly used to improve the corrosion resistance and heat resistance of materials, especially in humid and corrosive environments. The Cr percentage content in the present invention is controlled within a range of 0.10% to 0.25%.

[0038] Ni: adding a proper amount helps to improve the strength, wear resistance and toughness of the material while maintaining good processing performance. The Ni percentage content in the present invention is controlled within the range of 0.01% to 0.05%.

[0039] Cu: As an auxiliary alloying element, adding a proper amount can further optimize the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the material. In the present invention, the percentage of Cu is controlled within a range of 0.05% to 0.10%.

[0040] Preferably, the metallographic structure is ferrite and pearlite, and the proportion of pearlite is ≥10%.

[0041] The organization and performance of ferrite are similar to those of pure iron, with good plasticity and toughness, but low strength and hardness. As the carbon content in steel increases, the amount of ferrite decreases relatively, and the amount of pearlite increases. At this time, the ferrite is network-shaped and crescent-shaped. The cold-rolled sheet of the present invention belongs to medium carbon steel. The mechanical properties of pearlite are between ferrite and cementite, with high strength, moderate hardness, and certain plasticity. The comprehensive mechanical properties of pearlite are better than those of either ferrite or cementite alone. The mechanical properties of pearlite are between ferrite and cementite, with moderate strength and hardness, and are not brittle.

[0042] A method for processing a strong and tough wear-resistant cold-rolled plate comprises the following steps in sequence:

[0043] Smelting, continuous casting, hot rolling, pickling, cold rolling, annealing and leveling.

[0044] After cold rolling, the steel coil has its grains broken and elongated, and the lattice is seriously distorted, which increases the hardness of the steel and reduces the plasticity and toughness, that is, the work hardening phenomenon occurs. By heating it to above the recrystallization temperature and below the austenite transformation temperature, and keeping it warm for a certain period of time, the unstable atoms on the grain boundaries are rearranged due to thermal motion, and new equiaxed grains are formed through the process of nucleation and growth, that is, recrystallization occurs. As a result, the strength and hardness of the steel are reduced, and the plasticity and toughness are increased, so that the strip steel has good process and use performance. Recrystallization requires a certain time and temperature, but with the increase of temperature and excessive extension of time, the grain boundaries of the formed equiaxed grains will fuse, and the new equiaxed grains will continue to grow. This process will cause the various properties of the steel to decrease again. Therefore, recrystallization annealing can be summarized as: through heating and keeping warm, the steel after cold rolling should be recrystallized, while preventing its grains from growing excessively. As an important heat treatment method, the hood annealing process can uniformly anneal the cold-rolled sheet under a protective atmosphere and effectively improve the structure and properties of medium carbon steel.

[0045] Preferably, the smelting temperature is 1550° C. to 1600° C. The smelting is carried out under vacuum or inert gas protection, and the purity of the raw materials and the smelting temperature are strictly controlled to ensure uniform chemical composition.

[0046] Preferably, the continuous casting adopts tundish heating and electromagnetic stirring to control the temperature gradient of the ingot to ≤100°C / m to reduce internal defects, and the continuous casting speed is controlled to 0.8m / min to 1.2m / min to obtain an ingot with a smooth surface and a dense internal structure.

[0047] Preferably, the hot rolling temperature is 1150°C to 1200°C, and the total hot rolling reduction is ≥60% through multiple rolling passes, and a uniform plate shape and microstructure are obtained through multiple rolling passes. Furthermore, after hot rolling, cooling is performed, and the cooling rate is controlled to be 20°C / s to 50°C / s, and when cooled to 650°C to 700°C, this temperature is maintained for coiling.

[0048] Preferably, the hot-rolled plate is pickled after cooling to remove the surface iron oxide scale to ensure that the surface is clean before cold rolling.

[0049] Preferably, the total cold rolling reduction ratio is 55% to 65% to obtain the target thickness and cold working hardening effect.

[0050] Preferably, during the hood annealing, the cold-rolled sheet is fed into a hood annealing furnace and preheated in a protective atmosphere (such as a nitrogen and hydrogen mixture) to remove moisture and residual gas on the surface of the cold-rolled sheet. The preheating temperature is 350±10°C. After preheating, annealing is performed at a temperature of 700±10°C. The sheet is kept warm for a period of time (depending on the thickness and performance requirements of the cold-rolled sheet, generally 2-6 hours) to homogenize the internal structure of the cold-rolled sheet and precipitate a beneficial alloy phase. After annealing, the temperature is gradually lowered to room temperature to avoid excessive thermal stress inside the cold-rolled sheet.

[0051] Preferably, the cold-rolled sheet after annealing is flattened to improve the sheet shape and surface quality, and the flattening elongation is 0.5% to 1.0%.
