Abstract

The invention discloses a method for eliminating crack-shaped morphology on the surface of a carbon steel hot-rolled pickling plate strip, and relates to the technical field of carbon steel surface treatment. The acid continuous rolling unit serves as mechanical descaling equipment by utilizing the advantages that the first rack of the cold continuous rolling section of the acid continuous rolling unit is large in pressing capacity, large in tension and high in rolling stability. By utilizing the principle that the plasticity difference between the oxide skin and a steel substrate is large, the hot-rolled oxide skin has uniform and high-density crack defects through a relatively high reduction rate, so that a foundation is laid for uniform corrosion morphology generated by uniform contact between hydrochloric acid pickling and a strip steel substrate during secondary online; and the adopted equipment and process method belong to basic equipment and conventional processes of the acid continuous rolling unit, and any equipment transformation and extra material consumption do not need to be carried out.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of carbon steel surface treatment, in particular to a method for eliminating the crack-like morphology on the surface of a hot-rolled pickled carbon steel strip. Background Art

[0002] Carbon steel hot-rolled strips are usually removed from hot-rolled scale by continuous hydrochloric acid pickling in the pickling mill. However, since the pickling time of the continuous pickling mill is short and the hydrochloric acid solution must come into contact with the strip steel matrix before an efficient pickling reaction occurs, mechanical descaling equipment must be installed before the continuous hydrochloric acid pickling process to make the scale have a large number of crack defects, so as to open up the contact channel between the acid solution and the matrix.

[0003] At present, the continuous hydrochloric acid pickling section of the acid continuous rolling mill is usually only equipped with a scale breaker as a mechanical descaling method. The elongation of the strip steel is low. Although it can increase the hot-rolled oxide scale crack defects, the crack density is insufficient and the distribution is uneven. During hydrochloric acid pickling, the acid liquid will preferentially corrode the substrate locally in the oxide scale cracks. After the oxide scale is removed, the local corrosion position will remain in the form of transverse cracks. This pickled plate with a large number of transverse crack-like micromorphology is used as a cold rolling and hot dip plating base material, which will cause surface quality problems such as uneven coating, missed plating, and local internal oxidation, which seriously affects the production quality stability of high-quality and high-grade carbon steel plates and strips.

[0004] To solve the problem of crack-like micromorphology of carbon steel pickled strip, the following measures are currently disclosed: first, a shot blasting device is installed after the scale breaker to remove most of the hot rolling scale to improve the uniformity of hydrochloric acid pickling; second, a pickling tank for other pickling processes such as electrolytic pickling is added, electrolytic pickling is used and high-concentration corrosion inhibitor is added to the hydrochloric acid solution to improve the uniformity of pickling. However, these disclosed methods all require large-scale equipment modification of the existing pickling continuous rolling mill and increase the consumption of high-cost materials (such as corrosion inhibitors). Summary of the invention

[0005] In response to the above technical problems, the present invention provides a method for eliminating the crack-like morphology on the surface of carbon steel hot-rolled pickled strip, which is used to solve the problem that solving the crack-like microscopic morphology of carbon steel pickled strip requires large-scale equipment modification of the existing acid continuous rolling unit, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and increases high-cost material consumption.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A method for eliminating crack-like morphology on the surface of a hot-rolled pickled carbon steel strip comprises the following steps: S1: When the steel coil is put into the pickling mill for the first time, the pickling section of the pickling mill is completely empty, the cold rolling reduction rate of the first stand of the cold rolling section is adjusted to 6-10%, and the remaining stands of the cold rolling section are empty, and then the steel coil is coiled; S2: After the pretreatment in step S1, the steel coil is put back on the acid continuous rolling unit for normal hydrochloric acid pickling and cold continuous rolling production.

[0007] Furthermore, in step S1, the rolling speed of the cold rolling section is 100-500 m / min.

[0008] Furthermore, in step S2, when the steel coil passes through the acid continuous rolling unit for the second time, the reduction rate of the scale breaker is 0.3%-3.0%, the process speed of the hydrochloric acid pickling section is 95-180m / min, the hydrochloric acid concentration is 180-220g / L, the metal ion is 25-35g / L, the acid solution temperature is 75℃-85℃, the process speed of the cold continuous rolling section is 95-180m / min, the first to fourth frames are put into cold rolling, and the total reduction rate of cold rolling is 45%-70%.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention utilizes the advantages of large pressing capacity, large tension and high rolling stability of the first frame of the cold rolling section of the acid continuous rolling mill to act as a mechanical descaling device. The large plasticity difference between the oxide scale and the steel matrix is ​​utilized, and a large pressing rate is used to make the hot rolled oxide scale have uniform and high-density crack defects, thereby laying the foundation for the hydrochloric acid pickling to uniformly contact the strip steel matrix during the second pass to produce a uniform corrosion morphology; and the equipment and process methods used are all basic equipment and conventional processes of the acid continuous rolling mill, without any equipment modification and consumption of additional materials.
