Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgy, and in particular relates to a method for producing an alloy steel plate having a thickness of 40 mm or less after being formed into an electroslag ingot. Background Art

[0002] In order to develop space technology, occupy the space domain, accelerate the modernization of national defense and strengthen national defense, many countries in the world today, especially developed countries, are willing to spend huge amounts of money and compete to develop and manufacture advanced aviation, aerospace and navigation equipment, such as spacecraft, international space stations, artificial satellites, nuclear submarines, jet long-range bombers, atomic energy, rockets, missiles and other equipment.

[0003] However, these cutting-edge equipment have very strict requirements on the material properties used in their manufacture, and put forward a series of special and strict requirements on the steel, alloys, and blanks used, such as high purity, high uniformity, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, impact resistance, and fatigue resistance. In particular, the requirements for the stability, consistency, and reliability of material properties are very high.

[0004] Alloy steel plates produced from electroslag ingots can effectively meet these requirements. Electroslag remelting effectively removes harmful elements and impurities from the alloy, improving the purity of the alloy steel, enhancing ingot crystallization, making the alloy steel's structure more uniform and dense, and enhancing its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Furthermore, the process is simple to operate, low cost, and consumes minimal energy, making it suitable for large-scale industrial production.

[0005] Some special equipment requires the use of electroslag ingots to produce steel plates with a thickness of 40 mm or less. During the electroslag remelting process, a large amount of hydrogen will be generated inside the electroslag ingots, which can easily cause defects such as steel plates that fail flaw detection and surface cracks. Conventional production uses electroslag ingots to directly roll steel plates into hot hydrogen annealing. However, the steel plates produced from electroslag ingots with a thickness of less than 40 mm have a small unit weight and a fast temperature drop after rolling, making it difficult to achieve hot hydrogen annealing after rolling, which can easily lead to the hydrogen in the steel being unable to overflow and causing the steel plates to be scrapped. At the same time, the unit weight is small, and small ingots need to be used for production, resulting in a low yield. In response to the above problems, the present invention provides a method for producing high-quality electroslag ingot alloy steel plates with a thickness of 40 mm or less. Summary of the Invention

The ingot is then slowly cooled to 200-220°C before being removed from the furnace at a heating rate of ≤ 50°C / hour. The furnace door is strictly prohibited from being opened during the cooling process. After annealing, the ingot is directly cut while still hot (cutting temperature ≥ 150°C). The ingot is then cleaned using a hot flame stripping method (cleaning temperature ≥ 120°C) to achieve a full metallic luster and no warping.

[0011] Preferably, in the process of opening the blank, the temperature is kept at 600-650°C for 72 hours; and the temperature is lowered to 200-220°C and then taken out of the furnace, which takes 48 hours.

[0012] Preferably, in the secondary rolling process of the electroslag ingot of the present invention, a large reduction is adopted in the rough rolling stage, the average reduction per pass is controlled to be 15-23 mm, the start rolling temperature of the finishing rolling is 910-930°C, and the final rolling temperature is 890-910°C.

[0016] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are: In the electroslag ingot cleaning process of the present invention, the depth-to-width ratio of the cleaning area is controlled to be ≤0.2, which can reduce the generation of surface defects such as cracks and folds during rolling.

[0017] During the heating process of the present invention, the micro-positive pressure in the furnace is controlled to be between 0-30 Pa, thereby reducing the entry of external air, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the furnace temperature and reducing energy consumption.

[0018] The heating process of the present invention sets a suitable heating temperature, adds a temperature gradient, reduces internal stress, heats more evenly, can effectively prevent the generation of deep cracks and is beneficial to plate shape control.

[0021] The invention controls the secondary rolling process and the start and finish rolling temperature, which can reduce the generation of iron oxide scale, refine the grains, and improve the performance and shape of the steel plate.

[0066] The specific process steps are as follows: (1) Control of the electroslag ingot cleaning process: During the electroslag ingot cleaning process, the surface defects of the ingot depth are cleaned to a qualified standard, the depth-to-width ratio of the defects is 0.2, and the transition area between the cleaned area and the uncleaned area is smooth and has no sharp corners.

[0067] (2) Heating process control: During the heating process of the electroslag ingot, a slight positive pressure of 7Pa is maintained in the heating furnace, no oxygen is detected in the initial section of the flue, and the flue gas volume is sufficient; the electroslag ingot is charged to a furnace temperature of 95℃ for 2 hours, then heated to 700℃ at a rate of ≤80℃ / h and kept warm for 3 hours, then heated to 950℃ at a rate of ≤100℃ / h and kept warm for 3 hours, and finally heated to 1265℃ at a rate of ≤120℃ / h and kept warm for 12 hours; the heating and holding temperature of the open billet is 1270℃, and the time in the furnace is 1.1min / mm; the time for the electroslag ingot to be transferred from the furnace to the dephosphorization box is 1 minute and 30 seconds, and the time for the open billet to be transferred from the furnace to the dephosphorization box is 35 seconds.

[0068] (3) Dephosphorization process control: During the dephosphorization process, the water pressure is 21 MPa, the dephosphorization nozzle height is 1000 mm, the distance from the ingot surface is 120 mm, and the dephosphorization nozzle tilt angle is 16°.

[0069] (4) Control of the billeting process: After the electroslag ingot is billeted, it is loaded into a trolley furnace for hydrogen annealing. The billet is loaded into the furnace at a temperature of 330°C. After simmering for 2 hours, the temperature is raised to 600-650°C and kept at this temperature for 72 hours. The billet is then slowly cooled to 200°C over 48 hours and taken out of the furnace. The heating and cooling rate is ≤50°C / h. It is strictly forbidden to open the furnace door during the cooling process. After annealing, the billet is directly cut with heat (cutting temperature 180°C). The billet surface is cleaned with a hot flame peeling method (cleaning temperature 150°C) on both the upper and lower surfaces until it is completely metallic and shiny without warping.

[0070] (5) Secondary rolling process control: The average reduction per pass in the rough rolling stage of the steel plate is 17 mm; the starting temperature of the finishing rolling is 910 °C and the final rolling temperature is 890 °C during the rolling of the steel plate.

[0071] The difference between this comparative example and Example 2 is that: The charging temperature of the electroslag ingot is 95℃. The temperature is too low, and internal stress is generated inside the electroslag ingot, which is eventually released and extends to the surface, resulting in large-area cracks on the surface of the billet. The cleaning volume is large, resulting in the billet being too thin, and the steel plate size cannot meet the use requirements.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention can still be modified or replaced by equivalents. Any modification or partial replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
