Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of refractories, and particularly to a stopper rod for continuous casting and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The stopper rod is a very important functional refractory material in continuous casting steel pouring. It is installed in the ladle and controls the opening and closing of the nozzle and the molten steel flow by lifting displacement. It plays roles such as controlling the flow and plugging the flow after pouring during continuous casting. The stopper rod needs to be immersed in high-temperature molten steel for a long time, and is extremely easy to age and damage. Once problems occur during use, it will affect the continuous casting production rhythm, and even cause serious safety accidents or huge economic losses.
[0003] The currently used stopper rods are roughly divided into two types: integral stopper rods and composite stopper rods. Among them, the integral stopper rod is usually integrally formed and made of materials such as aluminocarbon, magnesite-carbon or spinel-carbon. The installation and manufacturing processes are relatively simple and the cost is relatively low. However, due to the fixity of its material and structure, it is difficult to meet the requirements of different steel grades and continuous casting process conditions, which limits the application of the integral stopper rod in different production environments. The composite stopper rod consists of a rod body, a rod head and a slag line. Since the positions of each part in the ladle are different, different materials are selected for production, and then each part is compositely assembled to adapt to different production environments.
[0004] In the existing composite stopper rods, the thermal shock resistance or erosion resistance of the rod head or slag line part is relatively poor, so that the stopper rod will crack and chip after being used for a period of time, resulting in the inability to stably control the molten steel flow during continuous casting and affecting production. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to solve the deficiencies in the prior art, the present application provides a stopper rod for continuous casting and a preparation method thereof. In the preparation raw materials of the rod head, a composite graphite composed of ultrafine flake graphite, expanded graphite and isostatic graphite is added, which can improve the erosion resistance of the rod head while ensuring the thermal shock resistance; in the preparation raw materials of the slag line, zircon mullite and calcium oxide are added to improve the erosion resistance and thermal shock resistance of the slag line, thereby reducing the occurrence of cracking and chipping of the rod head and slag line.
[0006] In the first aspect, the present application provides a stopper rod for continuous casting, adopting the following technical solution:
[0007] A stopper rod for continuous casting, comprising a rod body, a rod head and a slag line. The rod head is located at one end of the rod body, the slag line is composited on the rod body. The material of the rod body is aluminomagnesia-carbon, the material of the rod head is magnesite-carbon, and the material of the slag line is aluminomagnesia-carbon;
[0008] By weight, the raw materials for preparing the rod body include the following components: 60-65 parts of magnesium aluminate spinel, 3-5 parts of activated α-aluminum oxide powder, 1-2 parts of activated β-aluminum oxide powder, 18-22 parts of flake graphite, 0.2-0.5 parts of nitride, 3-5 parts of antioxidant, and 8-10 parts of binder;
[0009] By weight, the raw materials for preparing the rod head include the following components: 80-85 parts of fused magnesia, 5-10 parts of composite graphite, 0.5-1.2 parts of nitride, and 7-9 parts of binder; The composite graphite includes ultrafine flake graphite, expanded graphite, and isostatic graphite;
[0010] By weight, the raw materials for preparing the slag line include the following components: 55-60 parts of magnesium aluminate spinel, 20-30 parts of corundum, 18-25 parts of ultrafine flake graphite, 5-10 parts of zircon mullite, 1-3 parts of calcium oxide, and 8-10 parts of binder.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the rod body and the slag line are made of aluminum-magnesium-carbon material, and the rod head is made of magnesia-carbon material. The thermal deformation rates of each part are relatively close, avoiding the fracture or chipping of the stopper rod due to excessive differences in thermal deformation rates during use. Composite graphite is added to the raw materials for preparing the rod head. Among them, ultrafine flake graphite has good high-temperature resistance and a layered structure, which helps to improve the structural stability of the rod head; expanded graphite has excellent high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, and expanded graphite will expand under high-temperature conditions, filling the tiny gaps between materials and improving the material density of the rod head; isostatic graphite has excellent high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, and a low coefficient of thermal expansion, which can improve the thermal stability and corrosion resistance of the rod head. Compared with single-type graphite, the composite graphite compounded by the three can improve the erosion resistance of the rod head while ensuring thermal shock resistance, reducing the occurrence of cracking and chipping of the rod head.
[0012] Since the slag line will be in direct contact with the molten slag and will be affected by the rapid temperature change during continuous casting, it needs to have good corrosion resistance and thermal shock resistance. Adding zircon mullite can improve the overall performance of the slag line. First, zircon mullite has strong erosion resistance, which can improve the erosion resistance of the slag line and extend its service life; second, zircon mullite has a good phase transformation toughening mechanism, improving the high-temperature stability of the slag line and significantly reducing the cracking or fracture problems caused by thermal shock; in addition, zircon mullite can also reduce the thermal expansion coefficient of the slag line, preventing the slag line from deforming severely under high-temperature conditions and causing cracking and chipping. Calcium oxide can enhance the high-temperature stability of zircon mullite, improve the sintering performance of the slag line, enhance the density and uniformity of the material, and help to further improve the corrosion resistance and thermal shock resistance of the slag line.
[0013] Preferably: The addition amount of the composite graphite is 5%-10% of the total amount of the raw materials for preparing the rod head.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, since the rod head will directly contact high-temperature molten steel and slag, it is necessary to have good erosion resistance. During the continuous casting process, the rod head will also experience rapid temperature changes, so it is also necessary to have excellent thermal shock resistance. If the addition amount of the composite graphite is too much, although the thermal shock resistance of the rod head will be improved, its erosion resistance will be weakened, resulting in the rod head being eroded and worn by the molten steel, reducing the flow control ability of the stopper rod; while if the addition amount of the composite graphite is too little, although the erosion resistance of the rod head is improved, the thermal shock resistance of the rod head will be weakened, resulting in cracking and chipping during the continuous casting process.
[0015] Furthermore, the addition amount of the composite graphite is 8% of the total amount of the raw materials for preparing the rod head.
[0016] Preferably: the mass ratio of the ultrafine flake graphite, expanded graphite and isostatic graphite is (3 - 6):1:(1 - 4).
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, further adjusting the mass ratio of the ultrafine flake graphite, expanded graphite and isostatic graphite helps to improve the thermal shock resistance and erosion resistance of the rod head, while controlling the thermal deformation rate of the rod head and reducing the occurrence of cracking and chipping of the rod head.
[0018] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio of the ultrafine flake graphite, expanded graphite and isostatic graphite can be 3:1:4, 5:1:2 or 6:1:1, etc.
[0019] Preferably: the antioxidant includes silicon carbide, boron carbide and cobalt oxide.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, silicon carbide can form a dense SiO2 protective layer at high temperature, which can effectively block the further penetration of oxygen, and boron carbide will form a B2O3 film on its surface under high temperature conditions to prevent its further oxidation. The two are used together as antioxidants for preparing the rod body. During the high-temperature continuous casting process, a dense, continuous and stable composite protective film can be formed on the surface of the rod body, improving the antioxidant performance of the rod body. The addition of cobalt oxide can promote silicon carbide and boron carbide to form a protective layer on the surface of the rod body more quickly and improve the stability of the protective layer, thereby further improving the antioxidant performance of the rod body and enhancing the erosion resistance of the rod body.
[0021] Preferably: the mass ratio of the silicon carbide, boron carbide and cobalt oxide is (3 - 5):(2 - 4):1.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, further adjusting the mass ratio of the silicon carbide, boron carbide and cobalt oxide helps to promote the formation of a more dense, continuous and stable composite protective film on the surface of the rod body, thereby enhancing the erosion resistance of the rod body under high temperature conditions.
[0023] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio of silicon carbide, boron carbide and cobalt oxide can be 4:3:1, 3:4:1 or 5:2:1, etc.
[0024] Preferably, the mass ratio of zircon mullite to calcium oxide is (2 - 5):1.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, controlling the mass ratio of zircon mullite to calcium oxide within the above range helps to further improve the stability of zircon mullite under high-temperature conditions, thereby improving the erosion resistance and thermal shock resistance of the slag line.
[0026] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio of zircon mullite to calcium oxide can be 2:1, 3:1, 4:1 or 5:1, etc.
[0027] Preferably, the nitride is one or more of silicon nitride, boron nitride, titanium nitride, chromium nitride and aluminum nitride.
[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the above nitrides all have good high-temperature resistance, wear resistance and erosion resistance. Adding nitrides to the raw materials for preparing the stopper rod can significantly improve its erosion resistance and thermal shock resistance.
[0029] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing a stopper rod for continuous casting, adopting the following technical solution:

[0031] S1. Respectively put the raw materials of the rod body, rod head and slag line into a granulator for granulation, with the particle size ≤ 3 mm, then let it stand and perform drying treatment until the volatile content is within 2%, to obtain rod body mud particles, rod head mud particles and slag line mud particles;
[0032] S2. Load the rod body mud particles, rod head mud particles and slag line mud particles into a mold, and perform isostatic pressing at 80 - 100 MPa for 6 - 10 min to obtain a stopper rod blank;
[0033] S3. Place the stopper rod blank under the condition of 200 - 230 °C and dry for 12 - 16 h to obtain a rough stopper rod;
[0034] S4. Sinter the rough stopper rod under the condition of 920 - 960 °C to obtain a semi-finished stopper rod;
[0035] S5. Perform shape processing and coating with high-temperature resistant coating on the semi-finished stopper rod to obtain a finished stopper rod.
[0036] By adopting the above technical solution, the preparation of the stopper rod can be completed using existing production equipment without customizing special instruments. Moreover, the stopper rod prepared by the above method has good erosion resistance, thermal shock resistance, and scouring resistance, with reduced cracking and chipping phenomena, and a longer service life compared to the stopper rods on the market.
[0037] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0038] 1. In this application, the rod body and the slag line are made of alumina-magnesia-carbon, and the rod head is made of magnesia-carbon. The main materials of each part are relatively similar, and the thermal deformation rates are relatively close, avoiding the fracture or chipping of the stopper rod due to excessive differences in thermal deformation rates during use.
[0039] 2. In this application, a composite graphite composed of ultrafine flake graphite, expanded graphite, and isostatic graphite is added to the raw materials for preparing the rod head, which can improve the scouring resistance of the rod head while ensuring thermal shock resistance and extend the service life of the rod head.
[0040] 3. In this application, zircon mullite is added to the raw materials for preparing the slag line, which not only improves the erosion resistance and thermal shock resistance of the slag line but also has a low thermal expansion coefficient and has little influence on the thermal deformation rate of the slag line.

[0078] Test Example:
[0079] The performance of the stopper rods prepared in Examples 1 - 10 and Comparative Examples 1 - 4 was detected, specifically including thermal shock resistance, apparent porosity, erosion depth, and service life. Among them, the detection of thermal shock resistance was carried out according to Method 1 (water quenching method) in GB / T 30873 - 2014 "Refractory materials - Test method for thermal shock resistance", the detection of apparent porosity was carried out according to GB / T 2997 - 2015 "Test methods for bulk density, apparent porosity and true porosity of dense shaped refractory products", the erosion depth was measured as the maximum depth of corrosion on the surface of the stopper rod after continuously immersing the stopper rod in molten steel for 48 h, and the service life was calculated based on the continuous use until leakage of molten steel occurred after the stopper rod blocked the nozzle. The specific detection results are shown in Table 4.
[0080]
[0081] It can be seen from the detection results in Table 4 that the overall performance of the stopper rods prepared in Examples 1 - 10 is better than that of the stopper rods prepared in Comparative Examples 1 - 4. The stopper rods prepared in Examples 1 - 10 have good thermal shock resistance, smaller erosion depth after continuously soaking in molten steel for 48 h, and longer service life.
[0082] From the test results of Examples 1-5, it can be seen that the overall performance of the stopper rod prepared by referring to the raw materials and their dosages of the rod body, rod head and slag line in Example 1 is better, with excellent thermal shock resistance and erosion resistance. Among the antioxidants, when the mass ratio of silicon carbide, boron carbide and cobalt oxide is 4:3:1, the overall performance of the stopper rod is improved.
[0083] From the test results of Examples 1, 6-7 and Comparative Examples 1-3, it can be seen that during the preparation of the rod head, when the addition amount of graphite is controlled within 5%-10%, the overall performance of the stopper rod is better and the service life is longer. Moreover, after the inventor adjusted the type of graphite, it was found that compared with single-type graphite, the composite graphite composed of ultrafine flake graphite, expanded graphite and isostatic pressing graphite added to the stopper rod can significantly improve the overall performance of the stopper rod. Especially when the mass ratio of ultrafine flake graphite, expanded graphite and isostatic pressing graphite is 5:1:2, the performance improvement of the stopper rod is more obvious.
[0084] From the test results of Examples 1, 8-10 and Comparative Example 4, it can be seen that adding zircon mullite to the preparation of the slag line can improve the erosion resistance and thermal shock resistance of the slag line, extend the service life of the stopper rod, and the addition of calcium oxide can assist zircon mullite in improving the performance of the stopper rod. When the mass ratio of zircon mullite and calcium oxide is (2-5):1, the overall performance of the stopper rod is improved.
