Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of corrosion-resistant steel bars, and in particular to a rare earth modified high-strength corrosion-resistant steel bar and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The cost of repairing, reinforcing and replacing corroded components caused by corrosion of reinforced concrete structures accounts for about 3% to 5% of the total cost of the building each year. In coastal areas, this proportion is even higher, reaching more than 10%. Taking bridge engineering as an example, the maintenance costs caused by corrosion account for 27% to 32% of the life cycle cost of the bridge. In addition, the indirect economic losses such as structural safety accidents and loss of use functions caused by corrosion are even more difficult to estimate. Especially in major projects such as marine engineering and nuclear power plants, once steel bar corrosion failure occurs, it will not only cause huge maintenance costs, but may also trigger a chain reaction, leading to serious consequences such as project delays and suspension of production for rectification, highlighting the importance and urgency of developing high-performance corrosion-resistant steel bars.
[0003] Statistics show that steel bar corrosion causes more than 50% of reinforced concrete structure failures, among which local corrosion and stress corrosion caused by non-metallic inclusions are particularly significant, which not only affects the strength and bonding properties of the steel bars, but also endangers the bearing capacity and service life of the entire structure, causing huge economic losses. Therefore, it is urgent to carry out systematic research in terms of material design, inclusion control and modification, and corrosion resistance optimization, in order to develop new corrosion-resistant steel bars through low-cost and high-efficiency technical means to meet the requirements of green, safety, and long life engineering construction.
[0004] In the prior art, steel bars usually face the following problems: Insufficient corrosion resistance: Steel bars are susceptible to corrosion in complex environments, especially in hot and humid environments, atmospheric and seawater environments, which can lead to structural performance degradation and shorten service life. The optimization of corrosion-resistant elements (such as Cr) in existing steel materials is not sufficient, and the passive film of steel bars has poor stability in harsh environments, making pitting and other forms of corrosion more likely to occur.
[0005] It is difficult to balance strength and plasticity: In order to improve the strength of steel bars, the carbon content or alloy element content is usually increased, but this will lead to a decrease in the plasticity and toughness of the material, affecting its actual performance and safety. In addition, excessive grain size and uneven inclusion morphology will also affect the strength and ductility of the material.
[0006] Inclusions and grain refinement have limited effects: Inclusions and coarse grains in steel often lead to uneven mechanical properties and reduce the overall performance of steel. Existing methods have limited effects on inclusion control and grain refinement, making it difficult to significantly improve the strength and corrosion resistance of materials.
[0007] In order to overcome the above technical problems, the present invention proposes to optimize the alloy composition of steel by adding rare earth elements and chromium elements, and adopt multiple strengthening mechanisms to improve the performance of steel bars. Summary of the invention
[0008] In view of the deficiencies of existing steel bar materials in terms of strength and corrosion resistance, the present invention proposes a rare earth modified high-strength corrosion-resistant steel bar and a preparation method thereof, which improves the steel bar performance through multiple strengthening mechanisms.

[0010] The present invention adds yttrium (Y) to the steel bar. The addition of yttrium can improve the strength and hardness of the steel bar and enhance its bearing capacity. Yttrium has good corrosion resistance. The addition of yttrium can improve the durability of the steel bar in a moist or corrosive environment and extend the service life. Yttrium compounds have good oxidation resistance, which helps to reduce oxidation damage to the steel bar in a high temperature environment. The addition of yttrium can improve the toughness of the steel bar, reduce brittleness, and improve the performance of the material under dynamic loads. Yttrium can improve the welding performance of steel, reduce cracks and defects during welding, and make the welded joints stronger. Under high temperature conditions, the presence of yttrium can improve the stability and strength of the steel bar, which is suitable for structures used in high temperature applications.
[0011] Cerium (Ce) added to steel bars can refine grains and optimize inclusion morphology, thereby improving the plasticity and toughness of steel. Cerium can also form a dense protective film on the steel surface, significantly improving the corrosion resistance of steel in high temperature and acidic environments.
[0012] Lanthanum (La) can inhibit grain growth. Adding lanthanum to steel bars makes the structure more uniform, which helps improve the overall performance of steel. Lanthanum can also improve the morphology of inclusions, thereby improving plasticity and toughness, while forming a protective film to enhance corrosion resistance, especially in acidic and seawater environments.

[0018] Furthermore, in step S2, during LF refining, argon gas is blown into the bottom of the LF furnace, with an argon gas flow rate of 12-20 NL / min and a blowing time of 10-18 minutes.
[0019] Furthermore, in step S3, the superheat degree of the casting process is 1632° C., and / or the continuous casting speed is controlled to be 2.0-2.6 m / min.
[0020] Furthermore, in step S3, an argon sealing protection casting technology is adopted in combination with an argon blowing process, and the argon flow rate is 7-22 NL / min.

The addition of rare earth elements can improve the microstructure of the steel bar, enhance the strength and toughness of the material, and make the steel bar less prone to fracture or fatigue damage when subjected to external forces. Rare earth elements can improve the weldability of steel, reduce defects and brittleness in welded joints, and improve the reliability of the overall structure. Aluminum and calcium in the composite rare earth alloy can improve the oxidation resistance of the steel bar, especially in high temperature and humid environments, and extend the service life. By using a combination of scrap steel and iron ore, the waste of resources in the production process can be effectively reduced, which meets the needs of sustainable development.
[0026] By adding trace rare earth elements (such as cerium, lanthanum, etc.), the morphology of inclusions in steel is improved, and harmful long strip inclusions are transformed into spherical ones, thereby effectively refining the grains and improving the plasticity and toughness of steel. In addition, rare earth elements can form a dense oxide film on the surface of steel to enhance the corrosion resistance of the material. Chromium is the key to improving the corrosion resistance of steel. By adding an appropriate amount of chromium (1.5wt%), a stable passivation film can be formed on the surface of steel, significantly improving the corrosion resistance of steel bars in corrosive environments. At the same time, the solid solution strengthening, precipitation strengthening and fine grain strengthening effects of chromium can effectively improve the strength of steel. Appropriate amounts of carbon, silicon, manganese and other elements are introduced into the alloy composition to ensure the strength and toughness of the steel bars. Among them, the carbon content is controlled within 0.10wt% to avoid the decrease in plasticity and corrosion resistance due to excessive carbon content; the introduction of manganese (1.36wt%) and silicon (0.55wt%) helps to improve the strength and deoxidation effect of steel and ensure the comprehensive performance of steel.
