Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgical process, and in particular relates to high-manganese non-magnetic stainless steel and a preparation process thereof. Background Art

[0002] Austenitic stainless steel refers to stainless steel with an austenitic structure at room temperature. Austenitic stainless steel is non-magnetic, has good elongation, good formability, and also has excellent corrosion resistance and weldability, making it widely used.

[0003] However, ordinary austenitic stainless steel still has weak magnetism, especially after deep drawing and other mechanical processing, its weak magnetic characteristics are more obvious, and the magnetic permeability is usually greater than 1.01×10 -6 H / m, it is difficult to use in buttons, zippers, clothing accessories, mechanical hardware and deep-drawn products, which require absolute non-magnetic applications. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a high manganese non-magnetic stainless steel and its preparation process. The non-magnetic stainless steel of the present invention has a tensile strength of ≥515MPa, a yield strength of ≥205MPa, an elongation of ≥35%, an HRB of ≤99 or an HV of ≤249. The non-magnetic stainless steel is mainly used for reprocessing and producing buttons, zippers, clothing accessories, mechanical hardware and deep-drawn products, etc. The magnetic permeability after reprocessing is ≤1.01×10 -6 H / m.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A high manganese non-magnetic stainless steel is characterized in that the chemical components in the steel include, by weight percentage, C: 0.07%-0.25%, Si: 0.20%-0.6%, Mn: 11.5%-22%, Cr: 10%-17%, Ni: 0.95%-6%, Cu: 0.25%-0.9%, N: 0.15%-0.26%, P≤0.05%, S≤0.005%, Mo: 0.05%-1.0%, Al: 0.01%-0.1%, Nb≤0.5%, Pb<0.002%, Cd≤0.001%, and the remainder is Fe and unavoidable impurities.

[0007] At the same time, it is necessary to meet the requirements of P+S≤0.05% and the martensite temperature Md30=551-462 * (C%+N%)-92 * (Si%) -8.1 * (Mn%)-29 * (Ni%+Cu%)-13.7 *(Cr%) - 18.5 * (Mo%) ≤ 100.

[0008] The tensile strength of the stainless steel is ≥ 515 MPa, the yield strength is ≥ 205 MPa, the elongation is ≥ 35%, HRB is ≤ 99 or HV is ≤ 249, and the magnetic permeability after reprocessing is ≤ 1.01 x 10 -6 H / m.

[0009] The stainless steel is used for producing buttons, zippers, clothing accessories, mechanical hardware and deep-drawing products.

[0010] A production process of high-manganese non-magnetic stainless steel, specifically comprising:

[0011] 1) Chemical composition control: In addition to the conventional chemical composition control, in order to ensure that the magnetic permeability of the finished product is ≤ 1.01 x 10 - 6 H / m, the martensitic phase transformation during the cold working process of the product is reduced to cause the increase of the material magnetism, and the content of Al needs to be controlled in the range of 0.01% to 0.1% to improve the purity of the material.

[0012] Md30 = 551 - 462 * (C% + N%) - 92 * (Si%) - 8.1 * (Mn%) - 29 * (Ni% + Cu%) - 13.7 * (Cr%) - 18.5 * (Mo%) ≤ 100; in order to ensure the yield rate of the material after cold working, the content of Al needs to be controlled in the range of 0.01% to 0.1% to improve the purity of the material.

[0013] 2) Continuous casting process: the superheat of the continuous casting liquid steel is controlled in the range of 10 to 30℃, the continuous casting speed is 0.8 to 1.2 m / s, the continuous casting electromagnetic stirring current is controlled in the range of 1000 to 1600 A, and the two cooling zones of the continuous casting adopt weak cooling mode with specific water consumption ≤ 1.0 L / kg.

[0014] 3) Hot rolling production process: the billet enters the heating furnace to be heated to a temperature of 1250 to 1300℃, is heated for 180 to 280 minutes to be discharged, enters high-pressure dephosphorization to be rolled to a thickness of 30 to 50mm through 3 to 5 passes of back-and-forth rolling, and then enters 5 to 7 continuous rolling to be once formed to obtain a black skin steel coil with a thickness of 6.0 to 2.0mm and a width of 900 to 1600mm.

[0015] 4) The black skin steel coil is stored in a warehouse to be naturally cooled for 3 to 5 days, 1 to 2 coils are sampled for inspection, and whether there are peeling, cracks and the like is checked to be qualified to enter the next production process.

[0016] 5) Solution pickling production process: The black steel coil undergoes a high-temperature annealing heat treatment at 1100-1200°C before pickling. The acid composition ratio is 150-300 g / L sulfuric acid, 100-200 g / L nitric acid, and 5-15 g / L hydrofluoric acid. The TV value speed of the entire solution pickling line is 80-150 m / min. After that, the silvery white hot-rolled high-manganese stainless steel coil is obtained by coiling. The coil specifications are 6.0-2.0 mm and the width is 900-1600 mm.

[0017] 6) Cold rolling production process: The silvery-white high-manganese stainless steel coil is cut into different widths and sent to a large four-roll mill. After 6 to 15 reciprocating rolling passes, it becomes a semi-finished product; the semi-finished product with a thickness of 0.4 to 1.5 mm enters the annealing furnace for high-temperature heat treatment at 1080 to 1200 ° C. The steel coil runs at a speed of 5 to 20 m / min. Subsequently, it is trimmed and re-reeled, and enters the finishing rolling unit. It is finished by 3 to 7 passes to form a finished product, which is then subjected to high-temperature heat treatment at 1080 to 1200 ° C again. Finally, a bright silvery-white stainless steel finished strip with a thickness of 0.07 to 0.7 mm is formed, which is packaged and stored and delivered to the customer.

[0018] The present invention undergoes two high-temperature heat treatments at 1080-1200° C. during the rolling process, thereby ensuring the non-magnetic cold working performance of the austenitic stainless steel and improving the forming performance of the steel material, with an elongation of ≥35%.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] The present invention effectively avoids the formation of magnetic martensite after hot rolling and cold rolling by regulating the chemical composition and coordinating the heat treatment process, while achieving the softness, strong tensile strength and ductility of the steel. The non-magnetic stainless steel of the present invention has a tensile strength of ≥515MPa, a yield strength of ≥205MPa, an elongation of ≥35%, an HRB of ≤99 or an HV of ≤249, and a magnetic permeability of ≤1.01×10 -6 H / m, this non-magnetic stainless steel is mainly used for reprocessing and producing buttons, zippers, clothing accessories, mechanical hardware and deep-drawn products.
