Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of prestressed steel technology, and specifically relates to an ultra-high corrosion-resistant slow-bonding prestressed steel bar. Background Art

[0002] The durability of prestressed tendons significantly impacts the performance of prestressed structures. Therefore, the durability guarantee for prestressed tendons should be higher than that for ordinary steel bars. Especially when structures face complex environmental conditions, simply improving the quality and thickness of the concrete cover often fails to guarantee the designed service life. As the strength level of steel strands increases, their susceptibility to stress corrosion in high-stress environments increases significantly, hindering the use of ultra-high-strength steel strands.

[0003] In the field of wind power technology, prestressed components such as anchor bolts and high-strength screws currently used in wind turbine foundations are all unbonded prestressed structures. These are typically coated with Dacromet for corrosion protection. In actual use, PVC pipes are often placed over the outer surfaces of the anchor bolts and high-strength screws, creating a bondless state between the anchor bolts and high-strength screws and the concrete. After tensioning, the top of the PVC pipe is sealed to prevent water from entering. However, the waterproof sealing process for PVC pipe tops is typically complex and has drawbacks, allowing rainwater to enter the pipes. Since Dacromet loses its corrosion protection upon contact with water, foundations constructed with this approach are subject to severe corrosion of prestressed components, posing a serious threat to wind turbine safety. Currently, wind turbine towers primarily utilize external prestressed structures and prestressed cables. These external prestressed tendons are directly exposed to the external environment, particularly in harsh corrosive environments such as coastal locations. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve the adaptability and corrosion resistance of these key components in their operating environments and extend their service life.

[0042] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0043] In order to solve the technical problem that the existing prestressed tendons have low corrosion resistance and cannot guarantee the designed service life, the applicant has developed a new type of prestressed tendon. This prestressed component can achieve ultra-high strength prestressed steel strands with high stress corrosion resistance and further effectively protect the external casing of the steel strands from corrosion, which can significantly extend their service life, is conducive to reducing carbon emissions and reducing material consumption, and is also conducive to accelerating project progress and improving structural safety.

[0044] Specifically, see Figure 1 , Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the ultra-high corrosion-resistant slow-bonding prestressed tendons of the present application.

[0045] like Figure 1As shown, the prestressed tendon is applied to a concrete member 400 , and includes a sleeve 100 arranged in the concrete member 400 , and a steel strand 200 arranged inside the sleeve 100 .

[0046] The steel strand 200 is extended axially along the casing 100 , and a gap is formed between the steel strand 200 and the inner wall of the casing 100 .

[0047] The prestressed tendon further includes a slow-bonding layer 300 arranged at the gap between the sleeve 100 and the steel strand 200 .

[0048] It can be understood that wrapping the steel strand 200 with the slow-bonding layer 300 can effectively protect the steel strand 200 from corrosion, thereby increasing its service life.

[0049] In this embodiment, the prestressed tendons are arranged in the concrete member 400. In other embodiments, the prestressed tendons can also be directly exposed and used, and the effects of this embodiment can be achieved.

[0050] To ensure the protective effect, the slow-bonding layer 300 in this embodiment can be an epoxy resin layer, and the slow-bonding layer 300 evenly fills the gap between the steel strand 200 and the sleeve 100. The thickness of the slow-bonding layer 300 in the radial direction of the steel strand 200 is 1.15 to 1.25 mm.

[0051] Specifically, in one embodiment, a single-component epoxy resin obtained by mixing epoxy resin, a thermotropic latent curing agent, a modifier, and a filler can be injected into the gap between the steel strand 200 and the sleeve 100 to form a slow-bonding layer 300 after curing.

[0052] In this embodiment, the sleeve 100 may be a plastic sleeve 100. In other embodiments, the sleeve 100 may be made of other materials as long as it can wrap the slow-bonding layer 300 and can achieve the effect of this embodiment.

[0053] For further information, see Figure 2 In this embodiment, the specification of the steel strand 200 is 1*7, that is, it is obtained by twisting 7 wire rods 2011021. The nominal diameter of the steel strand 200 can be 15.2~21.6mm, and the nominal area of the steel strand 200 can be 140~285mm. 2 .

[0054] In other embodiments, the steel strand 200 may be obtained by twisting other numbers of wire rods 201. For example, the specification of the steel strand 200 may be 1*19, i.e., it is obtained by twisting 19 wire rods 201. The nominal diameter of the steel strand 200 may be 21.8 to 28.6 mm, and the nominal area of the steel strand 200 may be 313 to 532 mm. 2, can also achieve the effect of this embodiment.

[0055] In this embodiment, the tensile strength of the steel strand reaches 1860 MPa or more, and the minimum stress corrosion test time of the steel strand 200 in solution A reaches 5 hours or more, and the median time reaches 8 hours or more.

[0056] The stress corrosion test time refers to the test time in solution A when conducting stress corrosion test in accordance with standard GB / T 15970.6-2007.

[0057] In order to further improve the stress corrosion resistance of prestressed tendons and increase the strength of prestressed tendons, the material and preparation method of the steel strand in this application are further improved.

[0058] Specifically, the chemical composition of the wire rod for high stress corrosion resistance prestressed steel strand of the present application includes, by mass percentage:

[0059] C 0.70-0.80%, Si 0.40-0.80%, Mn 0.20-0.80%, Cr 0.15-0.40%, V 0.01-0.05%, Cu less than 0.30%; Ni less than 0.30%; S less than or equal to 0.008%, P less than or equal to 0.010%, N less than or equal to 0.004%, O less than or equal to 0.0020%, and the balance is Fe and other inevitable impurities.

[0060] The present application significantly improves the homogeneity of the steel and improves the stress corrosion index of the steel by optimizing the mass fraction of each chemical component of the wire rod.

[0061] Specifically, in this application, the C content is limited to 0.70-0.80%, which ensures the tensile strength of the wire rod while reducing the carbon content, which helps to improve the stress corrosion resistance; by limiting the Si content to 0.40-0.80%, it helps to improve the corrosion resistance and relaxation resistance of the steel; by limiting the Mn content to 0.20-0.80%, the strength and hardenability of the steel can be improved, and a good work hardening rate of the wire rod can be guaranteed; by limiting the Cr content to 0.15-0.40%, on the one hand, it is beneficial to obtain retained austenite, and on the other hand, a dense oxide film is formed on the surface of the steel, while avoiding excessive Cr content that increases the difficulty of controlling segregation; by limiting the V content to 0.01-0.05%, the carbon oxides formed by V serve as effective hydrogen traps in the steel, thereby improving the stress corrosion index of the steel; by adding Cu and Ni and limiting their content to less than 0.30%, the stress corrosion index of the steel can be significantly improved.

[0062] In addition, in order to avoid affecting the strength and plasticity of the steel, this application limits the S content to less than or equal to 0.008%, the P content to less than or equal to 0.010%, the N content to less than or equal to 0.004%, and the O content to less than or equal to 0.0020%.

[0063] Based on the aforementioned composition ratios, by reducing carbon content, increasing purity, and adding corrosion-resistant chemical elements, the stress corrosion resistance of the wire rod can be significantly improved while maintaining its strength. In one embodiment, the wire rod can have a diameter of 8 to 14 mm, a tensile strength of 1180 to 1300 MPa, and a reduction of area of 38 to 48%.

[0064] This application also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned wire rod, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a schematic flow chart of the method for preparing wire rod for high stress corrosion resistant prestressed steel strand of the present application.

[0065] like Figure 2 As shown, the preparation method comprises:

[0066] S100, smelting molten steel to obtain target molten steel.

[0067] The chemical composition of the target molten steel is consistent with the chemical composition of the wire rod, which will not be repeated here, so that a wire rod with a target chemical composition can be prepared based on the target molten steel.

[0068] In one embodiment, the step of smelting molten steel may specifically include sequentially performing converter smelting and LF furnace refining.

[0069] Among them, converter smelting specifically involves feeding molten iron into a converter and mixing it with scrap steel to form molten steel, and then undergoing desiliconization, dephosphorization, and oxygen blowing for decarburization. When tapping, alloys are added to the ladle for deoxidation and alloying.

[0070] LF furnace refining specifically involves sending the molten steel after converter smelting into the LF refining furnace for chemical composition adjustment and temperature control, and controlling the inclusions in the molten steel through soft stirring until the temperature of the molten steel reaches the continuous casting requirements. After the chemical composition of the molten steel meets the standard, steel is tapped to obtain the target molten steel.

[0071] S200, adopt small billet continuous casting to cast the target molten steel into shape and obtain intermediate billet.

[0072] After the target molten steel with the temperature and chemical composition meeting the requirements is prepared, the target molten steel can be cast into shape using a continuous casting process.

[0073] In one embodiment, the size of the continuously cast billet may be 180 mm×240 mm. In other embodiments, the size of the billet may be adjusted based on actual needs, while still achieving the effects of this embodiment.

[0074] In order to ensure the tensile strength and stress corrosion resistance of the prepared wire rod, the present application optimizes the parameters of the continuous casting process. Specifically, in one embodiment, the target superheat of the molten steel can be 20-25°C, the stirring current of the crystallizer can be 270±25A, the stirring frequency of the crystallizer can be 3±0.5Hz, the pulling speed during continuous casting can be 1.2±0.05m / min, the continuous casting water content can be 0.22±0.01L / kg, the end stirring current can be 450±25A, the end stirring frequency can be 8±0.5Hz, and the total reduction under light pressure can be 15.0±0.2mm.

[0075] S300: Perform high-speed wire rolling on the intermediate billet to obtain a coil.

[0076] Among them, the high-speed wire rolling process is specifically to heat the intermediate billet and then perform rough rolling, finish rolling and wire drawing in sequence to obtain a coil.

[0077] In one embodiment, the heating temperature may be 1080-1150°C, the starting temperature of the rough rolling may be 950-1000°C, and the inlet temperature of the finishing rolling may be 850-900°C.

[0078] In order to facilitate the effect of the subsequent post-rolling controlled cooling process, the spinning temperature can be 820-880°C.

[0079] S400, immediately immersing the coil in a salt bath tank for online salt bath isothermal treatment. After the treatment is completed, the coil is immediately placed in a heat preservation corridor for online aging treatment under temperature control. After the treatment is completed, the coil is cooled to room temperature to obtain a wire rod.

[0080] After the high-speed wire rolling process, the coil still maintains the spinning temperature of the rolling process. The coil can be directly immersed in the salt bath tank without uncoiling, realizing online salt bath isothermal treatment and accurately controlling the material structure and properties.

[0081] Compared with traditional off-line salt bath heat treatment, the solution of the present application does not require the coil to be unwound, heat treated and then rewound, thus avoiding surface damage to the steel and thus helping to improve the stress corrosion index of the steel strand.

[0082] In one embodiment, the salt bath temperature of the online salt bath isothermal treatment may be 480-535° C., and the salt bath time may be 60-200 s.

[0083] After the online salt bath isothermal treatment, the coil can be immediately placed in the insulation corridor for online aging, where the temperature is slowly lowered and the coil temperature is precisely controlled, thereby refining the microstructure of the steel.

[0084] In one embodiment, the average cooling rate of the temperature control treatment is no higher than 0.2° C. / s, and the treatment time of the temperature control treatment is no less than 30 minutes.

[0085] The post-rolling controlled cooling process based on online salt bath isothermal treatment and online aging in the insulation corridor can refine the microstructure of the wire rod and significantly increase the sorbitization rate to improve the strength and plasticity of the wire rod.

[0086] Based on the wire rod and its preparation method of the above-mentioned embodiments, by optimizing the chemical composition ratio of the wire rod and reasonable preparation process parameters and post-rolling controlled cooling process, the strength and plasticity of the wire rod and the homogeneity of the steel are significantly improved, so that it can be drawn with a lower area reduction rate in the subsequent steel strand preparation process to obtain the target strength, reduce the drawing area reduction rate and significantly improve the plasticity index of the wire rod, which can reduce the surface damage and internal defects of the wire rod during subsequent drawing processing, thereby improving the stress corrosion index of the steel strand.

[0087] The present application also provides a steel strand, which is prepared from a plurality of wire rods according to any of the above embodiments.

[0088] Specifically, the steel strand is prepared from a plurality of wire rods through the processes of pickling, phosphating, drawing, stranding and stabilization in sequence.

[0089] In one embodiment, the pickling is performed by pickling the coil in a 15-20 wt % hydrochloric acid solution for 7-10 minutes at a pickling temperature of 35-42°C.

[0090] In one embodiment, phosphating is performed after the pickled coil is left for 20 to 28 hours;

[0091] In one embodiment, the drawing is performed by drawing the coil in 9 to 11 passes, with a pass reduction rate of 23 to 25%, a drawing speed not exceeding 2 m / s, and a temperature rise of not exceeding 100° C. per pass.

[0092] Based on the above-mentioned S400 post-rolling controlled cooling process, the wire rod has strong plasticity, so the target strength can be achieved with a lower drawing reduction rate, which effectively reduces the surface damage and internal defects of the wire rod, thereby helping to improve the stress corrosion resistance.

[0093] In one embodiment, the twisting tension may be greater than or equal to 80 KN, the speed may be less than or equal to 36 m / min, and the stabilization temperature of the stabilization process may be 400-430°C.

[0094] In one embodiment, the steel strand may be a 1860 MPa grade 1*7 steel strand.

[0095] The effects of the technical solution of this application are further elaborated in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0096] Example 1:

[0099] The molten steel is smelted by sequentially performing converter smelting and LF furnace refining steps to obtain the target molten steel. The chemical composition of the target molten steel is shown in Table 1 below in terms of mass percentage.

[0100] Among them, in the converter smelting step, molten iron is fed into the converter and mixed with scrap steel to form molten steel, and desiliconization, dephosphorization, oxygen blowing and decarburization are carried out. When tapping, alloy is added to the ladle for deoxidation and alloying;

[0101] During the refining step, the molten steel after converter smelting is sent to the LF refining furnace for chemical composition adjustment and temperature control, and the inclusions in the molten steel are controlled by soft stirring. The steel is tapped after the temperature and chemical composition meet the standards. The target superheat of the molten steel is 20°C.

[0102] (2) Continuous casting process

[0103] The target molten steel was cast into billets with a cross-sectional size of 180 mm × 240 mm by billet continuous casting.

[0104] Among them, the target superheat of the molten steel is controlled at 20°C, the stirring current of the crystallizer is 245A, the stirring frequency of the crystallizer is 2.5Hz, the pulling speed during continuous casting is 1.15m / min, the continuous casting water content is 0.21L / kg, the end stirring current is 425A, the end stirring frequency is 7.5Hz, and the total reduction under light pressure is 14.8mm.

[0105] (3) High-speed wire rolling process

[0106] The intermediate billet obtained in the continuous casting process is prepared into a wire rod with a diameter of 14 mm by high-speed wire rolling. The heating temperature is 1150℃, the starting rolling temperature of the rough rolling is 1000℃, the finishing rolling entrance temperature is 850℃, and the wire drawing temperature is 850℃.

[0107] (4) Post-rolling controlled cooling process

[0108] The coils after spinning are directly immersed in a salt bath for salt bathing. The temperature of the salt bath is 515℃ and the salt bath time is 120s. The coils after salt bath isothermal treatment are immediately placed in a heat preservation corridor for slow cooling. The treatment time is 30min and the average cooling rate is 0.15℃ / s.

[0109] (5) Steel strand processing procedures
