TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of steel, in particular, especially relates to a pressure vessel steel plate for 150,000 cubic large-scale crude oil storage tank with large heat input welding and a manufacturing method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the implementation of China's energy strategy and the increasing demand for oil reserves, crude oil storage tanks are developing towards large-scale. The performance of steel for large-scale crude oil storage tanks is required to be higher, especially in the welding process, which needs to withstand higher heat input. In the large heat input welding process, the heat affected zone is large, which is easy to produce welding cracks. The development of crude oil storage tank steel suitable for large heat input welding process needs to have lower welding crack sensitivity to ensure the quality of the welded joint.

[0003] At present, the crude oil storage tank steel plate produced by the traditional smelting method will have a large decrease in toughness of the heat affected zone (HAZ) after large heat input welding due to the serious coarsening of austenite grains and the formation of brittle and hard phase microstructure in the grains, which often cannot meet the minimum requirement of impact toughness. Therefore, the development of crude oil storage tank steel suitable for large heat input welding process is one of the technical innovations in the field of steel manufacturing, which not only can improve the technical level of steel manufacturing in China, but also can promote the technical progress and industrial upgrading of related industries. SUMMARY

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to overcome the above problems and deficiencies, and to provide a pressure vessel steel plate for 150,000 cubic large-scale crude oil storage tank with large heat input welding and a manufacturing method thereof.

[0005] The present application adopts the process means of nickel-molybdenum-chromium-niobium-vanadium-titanium micro-alloying + continuous casting billet smelting + controlled rolling and controlled cooling + quenching and tempering treatment, so that the product has good strength and toughness matching, welding performance and flat plate shape. By strictly controlling the addition sequence of alloying elements, fine and dispersed inclusions are formed in the molten steel, the toughness of the steel plate welding heat affected zone is improved, and the welding heat input is increased to 200 KJ / cm. After simulating post-weld heat treatment, it still has low yield ratio and good strength and toughness matching.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme of the present application is as follows:

[0007] In one aspect, the present application provides a pressure vessel steel plate for 150,000 cubic large-scale crude oil storage tank with large heat input welding, the chemical composition of the steel plate is as follows in terms of weight percentage:

[0008] C: 0.070% to 0.100%, Si: 0.20% to 0.30%, Mn: 1.45% to 1.60%, P ≤ 0.015%, S ≤ 0.003%, Nb: 0.030% to 0.050%, Ti: 0.020% to 0.050%, V: 0.040% to 0.060%, Ni: 0.50% to 0.60%, Cr: 0.10% to 0.30%, Mo: 0.15% to 0.25%, Cu: 0.10% to 0.18%, Alt: 0.020% to 0.050%, N: 0.006% to 0.008%, and the rest is Fe and inevitable impurities.

[0009] The above component design is as follows:

[0010] (1) C: C is the main component element of the steel, and the strength of the steel mainly depends on the content of C element in the steel. Too high content of C element will result in poor toughness, plasticity and welding performance of the steel. Low content of C element will result in low strength and performance after simulated stress relief treatment of the steel. In order to ensure that the steel plate has good matching of low temperature impact toughness, strength and welding performance in use, the content of C in the steel is required to be controlled in 0.070% to 0.100% in the present application.

[0011] (2) Si: Si is a common solid solution strengthening alloying element in steel, which is necessary for the strength and toughness of the steel, hardenability and ensuring the deoxidization of the steel. However, high content of Si will also result in the decrease of the toughness of the steel. Therefore, the content of Si in the present application is controlled in 0.20% to 0.30%.

[0012] (3) Mn: Mn element can strengthen pearlite in the steel through solid solution strengthening, and C-Mn strengthening is also the main way to improve the strength of low carbon steel. However, too high content of Mn will increase the production cost, and Mn element is easy to combine with S element to form MnS, which reduces the hydrogen-induced cracking resistance of the material, and too high content of Mn will also reduce the activity of carbon element. Therefore, the content of Mn in the steel is required to be controlled in 1.45% to 1.60%.

[0013] (4) P: P is a harmful element in steel, which increases the cold brittleness of the steel, makes the welding performance worse, reduces the plasticity, makes the cold bending performance worse, and P is also particularly sensitive to irradiation embrittlement. Therefore, the lower the content of P in the steel is, the better, and the content of P in the present application is required to be lower than 0.015%.

[0014] (5) S: Sulfur is a harmful element under normal circumstances, and S is easy to form brittle sulfide with alloying elements in the steel, which makes the steel produce thermal brittleness, reduces the ductility and toughness of the steel, and S also has the tendency to accelerate irradiation embrittlement. Therefore, the content of S in the steel is required to be limited below 0.003% in the present application.

[0015] (6) V: V is a micro-alloying element. Micro-alloying of V in the steel can form fine second phase particles, which can pin grain boundaries and provide precipitation strengthening, and can effectively refine the grains, greatly improve the comprehensive mechanical properties of the steel, such as strength, toughness, ductility and thermal fatigue resistance. Therefore, the range of V added in the steel is 0.040% to 0.060%.

[0016] (7) Nb: Nb is a strong carbide-forming element. In the steel, Nb forms NbC phase with large dispersion and good high-temperature stability, which provides precipitation strengthening. Through multi-stage rolling, the grains can be effectively refined, the toughness reduction caused by precipitation strengthening can be improved, and thus the steel plate can obtain high strength and high toughness. In addition, in the steel with Nb-Mo composite addition, Mo can also be segregated on the interface of the NbC matrix, which prevents the coarsening of NbC particles, and thus greatly improves the high-temperature strength of the steel. Therefore, the content of Nb is controlled to be 0.030% to 0.050%.

[0017] (8) Ti: Adding an appropriate amount of Ti can form a large number of fine TiN or Ti2O3 particles dispersedly distributed, which can act as heterogeneous nucleation core for acicular pearlite during solidification of the structure, thereby refining the structure and inhibiting the coarsening of austenite grains. The high-melting-point inclusions formed by Ti can also refine the intracrystalline structure and obtain good HAZ toughness. Therefore, the content of Ti in the steel is controlled to be 0.020% to 0.050%.

[0018] (9) Al: Adding a small amount of Al element in the steel can effectively refine the austenite grains, thereby refining the ferrite grains and the structure and improving the impact toughness of the steel. However, Al has the disadvantage of affecting the hot working performance, welding performance and cutting performance of the steel. Therefore, the content of Al in the steel is controlled to be 0.020% to 0.0050%.

[0019] (10) Ni: Ni is a solid solution strengthening element in the steel, which can improve the strength of the steel. Ni can reduce the resistance to dislocation movement of the steel, relax the stress, and thus change the substructure of the matrix structure, thereby improving the toughness of the steel, especially the low-temperature toughness. However, too high Ni content in the medium carbon steel can increase the phase transition temperature. Therefore, the content of Ni is controlled to be 0.50% to 0.60%.

[0020] (11) Mo: Mo mainly relies on solid solution strengthening and grain boundary strengthening to improve the strength of the steel. Secondly, Mo increases the stability of undercooled austenite, which makes the austenite to pearlite transformation curve move to the right, and the pearlite structure obtained after phase transition is finer. In addition, Ti and Mo combine to precipitate a large amount of nanometer-sized Ti-Mo(CN) carbides in the steel, which can pin dislocations and greatly improve the strength and toughness of the steel. Therefore, the content of Mo in the steel is controlled to be 0.15% to 0.25%.

[0021] (12) Cu: The outstanding role of Cu in the steel is to improve the corrosion resistance of plain low alloy steel, and also to improve the strength and yield ratio of the steel, and has no adverse effect on the welding performance. Meanwhile, its effect is similar to that of nickel, and can play a role in nickel saving and cost reduction. However, when the content is high, copper brittleness occurs during hot deformation processing. Therefore, the content of Cu in the steel is controlled to be 0.10% to 0.18% in the present application.

[0022] (13) Cr: Chromium is an element that stabilizes carbide, and the addition of chromium reduces the dissolution rate of carbide. Therefore, when a hot deformation organization refining process is used, even if the heating temperature is increased or the heating time is prolonged, the eutectoid transformation can still be avoided to obtain a refined organization; chromium can also inhibit the graphitization of silicon and aluminum containing ultra-high carbon steel, increase the hardenability of the steel and have the effect of secondary hardening, which can improve the hardness and wear resistance of high carbon steel without making the steel brittle, and improve the fatigue life. Therefore, the content of Cr in the steel is controlled to be 0.10% to 0.30% in the present application.

[0023] (14) N: N can combine with Ti to form a large number of fine TiN dispersedly distributed, which can act as heterogeneous nucleation core for acicular ferrite during organization solidification, thereby refining the organization and improving the welding performance. Therefore, the content of N in the steel is controlled to be 0.006% to 0.008% in the present application.

[0036] In the step (1), in the converter smelting, the charge size is 50-100mm, and the charge hot charging temperature is 1150-1200℃.

[0037] The adding amount of the ferrosilicon 75# alloy is 4-5kg / ton of steel, and the ferrosilicon 75# alloy is a ferrosilicon alloy with a silicon content of 75%.

[0038] The adding amount of the aluminum particle is 0.03-0.08kg / ton of steel, and only a small amount of aluminum particle is used for slag deoxidization in the converter smelting process.

[0039] In the LF furnace, the adding amount of the ferrotitanium is 0.8-1kg / ton of steel.

[0040] In the step (1), in order to make the slag system in the liquid phase zone, the crystallizer protective slag is composed of the following components in weight percentage: CaO 40%-55%, Al2O3 1%-5%, MnO 0-10%, SiO2 30%-40%, and the balance is inevitable impurities, the thickness of the slag film is 0.1-1.5mm, the sufficient floating removal of the inclusions is ensured, and the generation of linear defects in the cast blank is prevented.

[0042] The content of H element in the continuous casting billet is 1.0-2.0ppm, and the content of O element is 10-20ppm.

[0043] The continuous casting full-range protection casting adopts two-stage protection casting, i.e. ladle to tundish protection casting + tundish to crystallizer protection casting; wherein:

[0044] The ladle to tundish protection casting method is: a, adding covering agent in the tundish, which is used to reduce the heat loss of the molten steel, isolate air, reduce the secondary oxidation of the molten steel, and absorb the inclusions floating from the molten steel;

[0045] b, the protection casting adopts the protection sleeve method, the molten steel in the ladle flows into the tundish through a long refractory protection pipe, argon is introduced at the connection between the long nozzle protection pipe and the wide mouth of the ladle to form a positive pressure to prevent air from entering;

[0048] In the above technical solution, further, in step (2), rolling is carried out on the double-rack rolling mill, longitudinal-horizontal rolling or full longitudinal rolling is adopted in the rough rolling stage, and the pass reduction rate is 15%-25%; the rough rolling pass reduction rate is greater than 15%, so that it is greater than the critical deformation rate, and mixed crystal is avoided, and austenite grains are repeatedly deformed and recrystallized; the intermediate billet thickness is 3-4 times the thickness of the finished steel plate.

[0049] Full longitudinal rolling is adopted in the finish rolling stage, the austenite is fully flattened and elongated along the rolling direction, the pass reduction rate is 5%-15%, and the finish rolling pass reduction rate is less than 15%, so as to facilitate plate shape control; after rolling through the austenite non-recrystallization zone, a large number of deformation bands and dislocations are formed in the deformed austenite grains, and the phase nucleation position and phase change driving force are increased.

[0050] In the above technical solution, further, in step (2), in the ACC laminar cooling, the head and tail of the steel plate are shielded and controlled according to the water-out plate shape of the steel plate;

[0051] The shielding control principle is that the temperature of the head and tail of the steel plate is close to that of the body, the number of cooling header groups for shielding control is reduced, and the flow adjustment time is shortened;

[0052] The shielding control parameters are: the shielding flow is 5% to 10%, the head shielding position is 800 to 900 mm away from the head of the plate, and the tail shielding position is 100 to 200 mm away from the tail of the plate; through the use of the ACC head and tail shielding function, the temperature difference between the head and tail of the steel plate and the body is reduced, the temperature in the length direction of the on-line quenched steel plate is uniform, and good plate shape is obtained, thereby meeting the requirements of the plate shape of the steel plate entering the furnace.

[0054] In the technical scheme, further, in step (3), the straightening speed is 60 to 80 r / min.

[0055] The beneficial effects of the present application are:

[0056] 1. Nb-V-Ti-Ni-Mo-Cr microalloying is adopted to control the expected transformation of the organizational structure and lay the foundation for the strength and toughness of the steel plate.

[0057] 2. The "oxide metallurgy" technology is adopted to form fine and dispersed inclusions in the molten steel by strictly controlling the addition sequence of alloying elements, thereby improving the toughness of the steel plate in the welding heat affected zone.

[0058] 3. By optimizing the protection casting, slag ratio and RH cycle process, the inclusion content in the steel is reduced, the macrostructure quality of the continuous casting billet is improved, the basis for improving the flaw detection qualified rate and reducing the tensile layering rate is laid, the center segregation (level) is ≤C1.0 level, and the center porosity is ≤0.5 level.

[0059] 4. The controlled rolling and controlled cooling process is used, the product with fully refined and uniform structure and good flatness is obtained, and the unevenness after cold straightening is ≤5mm / m.

[0060] 5. By relaxation treatment and quenching and tempering heat treatment, the microstructure of the finished steel plate is 20%-30% ferrite + 70%-80% tempered bainite two-phase, the second phase is dispersedly distributed, the structure is uniform, the product has good strength and toughness matching, the proportion of ferrite and tempered bainite structure is reasonably adjusted, the mechanical properties of the product in the as-welded state are good, and the yield strength and tensile strength fluctuation range are within 50MPa, and the yield strength ratio is 0.85-0.90.
