Description

[0001] The technical solution provided by the present invention for realizing the above-mentioned is as follows:

[0002] 1. A production process of HRB400E steel bars for reinforced concrete, comprising alloy elements such as C: 0.25%, Si: 0.8% Mn: 1.6%, P: 0.45%, S: 0.45% by mass fraction, and the remainder being Fe and impurity elements.

[0003] 2. The melting point of iron ore is not fixed, because it is a mixture, and its melting point depends on its composition. Iron ore is a mineral aggregate containing iron or iron compounds. Iron is gradually selected through crushing, grinding, magnetic separation, flotation, gravity separation and other procedures.

[0004] 3. The melting point of molten iron is 1535℃ (iron ore to molten steel). The temperature of smelting molten iron is 1500℃-1700℃. The iron and steel furnace can be burned up to 2000℃. The solidification point of molten steel is 1065℃, the boiling point is 2360℃, and the liquidus temperature of molten steel fluctuates to 1700℃ with different components (the content of CSP and other elements in molten steel).

[0005] 4. The hot metal desulfurization method is the mechanical stirring method (KR method): the hot metal is rotated mechanically and 3-5 kg ​​of desulfurizer Cao or Mgo is sprayed into the hot metal per ton, the sulfur content is reduced to 0.002%, the desulfurization rate is higher than 90%, and the desulfurization temperature of the hot metal is above 1300°C. The desulfurizer reacts with the sulfide through stirring to achieve desulfurization.

[0006] 5. The billet temperature of continuous casting is generally controlled between 1300℃ and 1500℃, depending on the type of steel and process requirements. This is because the billet temperature determines the internal structure, grain size and surface quality of the billet. During the continuous casting process, it is also necessary to control the temperature of the molten steel to perform deep shaping, back blowing, continuous water spraying and other operations to ensure the billet quality. The measurement method of the billet temperature of continuous casting: one is to use temperature (such as immersion anode thermometer, thermocouple thermometer, etc.) to measure the temperature of the molten steel in real time, and continuously adjust the temperature during the continuous casting process to ensure that the billet temperature is stable and controllable. In short, the billet temperature of continuous casting is one of the important factors that determine the billet quality.

[0007] 6. The steel billet of the present invention is rolled into steel bars by rolling equipment, and the composition needs to be controlled according to the national standard GB1499.2-2007, and water-piercing rolling is adopted.

[0008] 7. Finally, bundle, package and palletize for storage and transportation.

[0009] 8. The present invention is widely used in the fields of construction, transportation infrastructure construction, etc. It is a steel product with the largest output, stable quality, high standards and high requirements, and simple process.

[0010] 9. The technical principle of the present invention is as follows: In the rolling production process of a HRB400E steel bar production process for reinforced concrete, the variables from ingot to finished product are large, the rolling speed is fast, and it has high thermal stability. It is mainly generated by reaction in molten steel and does not dissolve during heating and rolling. If it further plays a role in promoting the nucleation of voxels during the cooling process of the steel bar, the microstructure of the manifested steel bar will achieve the effect of fine grain strengthening.

[0011] 10. The present invention adopts Mgo / Cao additives, which are low in cost, abundant in source, simple to prepare, and suitable for mass production of HRB400E steel bar production process for reinforced concrete, reducing the consumption of precious alloy resources, reducing production costs, and facilitating promotion and application.
