Background Art
[0002] 022Cr18NbTi contains Mn, S, P, Cr, Ni, Ti, Nb and other elements. It has a ferrite structure at room temperature and a ferrite structure when heated at high temperature. It is mainly used to produce wire rods, which are mainly used for processing and welding wires, and are ultimately used in the manufacture of corrosion-resistant hangers, support frames and automobile exhaust treatment devices. 022Cr18NbTi hot rolled wire rod has low magnetism, high brittleness of precipitated brittle phase, low strength, and internal stress after heating, which is easy to cause cracks. Ferritic stainless steel has a high tendency of grain growth after heating and hot rolling, fast crystallization rate, and well-developed columnar crystals. If it is not timely heat-transferred and heat-treated after hot rolling, it may cause fracture and cracks. Internal stress after hot rolling and cracks exist.

Therefore, the hot coiling and online roller hearth furnace annealing process after hot rolling of 022Cr18NbTi wire rod and hot charging after rolling are the key to production. Hot charging and hot annealing process are required.
