Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of welding materials technology, specifically to a high-manganese steel flux-cored welding wire for surfacing welding and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Welding wire, as a key filler material in the welding process, is widely used in many industries such as machinery manufacturing, aerospace, shipbuilding, automobiles, and construction. After the welding wire is melted by electric arc or flame, it combines with the base material to achieve metal connection or surface repair.
[0003] High-manganese steel refers to alloy steel with a manganese content of more than 10%. The as-cast microstructure of high-manganese steel typically consists of austenite, carbides, and pearlite, sometimes containing a small amount of phosphorus eutectic. When the amount of carbides is high, they often appear in a network pattern at the grain boundaries. Therefore, as-cast high-manganese steel is very brittle and unusable, requiring heat treatment. The commonly used heat treatment method is solution treatment, which involves heating the steel to 1050℃~1100℃, holding it at this temperature to eliminate the as-cast microstructure, obtaining a single-phase austenite microstructure, and then water quenching to maintain this microstructure at room temperature.
[0004] High manganese steel is extremely prone to work hardening. Currently, flux-cored welding wires used for welding high manganese steel have problems such as low Brinell hardness of the weld metal and low overall mechanical properties and wear resistance of the weld. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Based on the current problems of low Brinell hardness of the weld metal and low overall mechanical properties and wear resistance of the weld, which are problems with flux-cored welding wires used for welding high-manganese steel, the purpose of this invention is to provide a flux-cored welding wire for high-manganese steel surfacing and its preparation method. After welding, the flux-cored welding wire produces a weld metal with a Brinell hardness HB≥170, which effectively improves the overall mechanical properties and wear resistance of the weld. In addition, it provides a stable arc, less spatter, and a beautiful weld formation.
[0006] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] In a first aspect, this application provides a high-manganese steel flux-cored welding wire for surfacing, comprising a steel outer sheath and a flux core, wherein the flux core is encased within the steel outer sheath, and by weight, the flux core comprises the following components:
[0008] 0.1-0.6 parts of natural rutile, 0.2-0.8 parts of ferrosilicon powder, 0.1-0.3 parts of potassium titanate, 0.1-0.4 parts of magnesium powder, 0.1-0.3 parts of fluoride, 8-11 parts of electrolytic manganese powder, and 0.1-0.5 parts of quartz sand.
[0009] The electrolytic manganese powder added in this invention acts as a deoxidizer, combining with sulfur during welding to form manganese sulfide (MnS), thereby reducing the tendency for hot cracking. Simultaneously, the limited content of electrolytic manganese powder in this invention effectively removes oxygen and reduces weld defects. Furthermore, in steel welding, the electrolytic manganese added in this invention, through combined deoxidation with silicon in ferrosilicon powder, generates low-melting-point silicate slag, forming a Mn-Si composite deoxidation system. This reduces oxide inclusions, minimizes slag density differences, optimizes weld microstructure, and improves weld strength and toughness. Additionally, the electrolytic manganese powder can dissolve into the ferrite matrix, enhancing its strength and hardness.
[0010] The potassium titanate added in this invention mainly functions to stabilize the arc, reduce spatter, and refine the weld seam. As a welding flux additive, potassium titanate can reduce arc voltage, stabilize the arc, reduce voltage fluctuations during welding, and improve arc stability. After using potassium titanate, weld spatter is significantly reduced, the welding quality is higher, and potassium titanate can improve the weld seam microstructure, making the weld seam denser and enhancing the mechanical properties of the welded joint.
[0011] The main component of the natural rutile added in this invention is titanium dioxide, which can ensure a stable arc and fine forming of the weld.
[0012] In this invention, magnesium powder and fluoride react during welding to generate low-melting-point magnesium fluoride slag (MgF2), which can efficiently desulfurize and deoxidize, purifying the molten pool. In addition, fluoride can reduce the viscosity of the molten slag, promote the floating of impurities, and reduce slag inclusion defects. Magnesium vapor agitates the molten pool, which can accelerate gas escape and improve the density of the weld.
[0013] In this invention, the quartz sand combines with the magnesium oxide formed during the welding process to form a neutral slag, which balances the fluidity. At the same time, it is embedded in the weld as a hard phase, which together with carbides improves the surface wear resistance. It also works synergistically with rutile to supplement the silicon source and stabilize the silicon-titanium slag system.
[0014] In one specific embodiment, the powder core comprises the following components:
[0015] 0.4 parts natural rutile, 0.5 parts ferrosilicon powder, 0.2 parts potassium titanate, 0.2 parts magnesium powder, 0.2 parts fluoride, 9 parts electrolytic manganese powder, and 0.3 parts quartz sand. The amounts of these components are the preferred amounts for the powder core.
[0016] In one specific embodiment, the steel outer skin, by mass percentage, comprises: 0.02wt%≤C≤0.04wt%, 0.10wt%≤Mn≤0.40wt%, 0<Si≤0.04wt%, 0<S≤0.030wt%, 0<P≤0.030wt%, with the balance being iron powder and unavoidable impurities.
[0017] In one specific embodiment, the steel outer skin, by mass percentage, comprises: 0.03 wt% C, 0.24 wt% Mn, 0.02 wt% Si, 0.006 wt% S, 0.007 wt% P, with the balance being iron and unavoidable impurities. This composition is the preferred amount for the steel outer skin.
[0018] In one specific embodiment, the fluoride includes any one or more combinations of calcium fluoride, potassium fluorotitanate, and potassium fluoroaluminate.
[0019] In one specific embodiment, the flux core is 8.7% to 13.9% of the weight of the flux-cored welding wire.
[0020] In one specific embodiment, the flux core comprises 10.8% of the weight of the flux-cored wire. This weight is a preferred value for the flux core in the flux-cored wire.
[0021] In one specific embodiment, the diameter of the high-manganese steel flux-cored welding wire is 1.0mm to 1.6mm.
[0022] In one specific embodiment, the diameter of the high-manganese steel flux-cored welding wire is 1.3 mm. This diameter value is a preferred diameter value for high-manganese steel flux-cored welding wire.
[0023] Secondly, this application provides a method for preparing a high-manganese steel flux-cored welding wire for surfacing welding. After the components of the flux core are mixed evenly according to the ratio, the steel outer sheath is placed in a welding wire forming machine. The evenly mixed flux core mixture is injected into a steel strip groove that is laterally bent into a "U" shape, and then rolled into a wire, and then drawn into a welding wire with a diameter of 1.0mm to 1.6mm.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0025] (1) Through the organic combination of the above components, the Brinell hardness HB of the weld metal after welding is ≥170. This effectively improves the overall wear resistance of the weld. The welding process has good performance, with stable arc, little spatter, and beautiful weld formation.
[0026] (2) The electrolytic manganese powder added in this invention acts as a deoxidizer, combining with sulfur during the welding process to generate manganese sulfide (MnS), thereby reducing the tendency for hot cracking. At the same time, the content of electrolytic manganese powder specified in this invention can effectively remove oxygen and reduce weld defects. In addition, in steel welding, the electrolytic manganese added in this invention can combine with silicon in ferrosilicon powder to generate low-melting-point silicate slag, forming a Mn-Si composite deoxidation system, reducing oxide inclusions, reducing slag density differences, optimizing weld microstructure, and improving weld strength and toughness. Furthermore, electrolytic manganese powder can dissolve into the ferrite matrix, improving its strength and hardness.
[0027] (3) The potassium titanate added in this invention mainly plays the role of stabilizing the arc, reducing spatter, and refining the weld in the weld. As a welding flux additive, potassium titanate can reduce the arc voltage, stabilize the arc, reduce voltage fluctuations during the welding process, and improve arc stability. After using potassium titanate, weld spatter is significantly reduced, the welding quality is higher, and potassium titanate can improve the weld microstructure, making the weld denser and enhancing the mechanical properties of the welded joint.
[0028] (4) The main component of the natural rutile added in this invention is titanium dioxide, which can ensure a stable arc and fine forming of the weld.
[0029] (5) In this invention, magnesium powder and fluoride react during welding to generate low-melting-point magnesium fluoride slag (MgF2), which can efficiently desulfurize and deoxidize, and purify the molten pool. In addition, fluoride can reduce the viscosity of molten slag, promote the floating of impurities, and reduce slag inclusion defects. Magnesium vapor agitates the molten pool, which can accelerate the gas escape and improve the weld density.
[0030] (6) In this invention, the quartz sand combines with the magnesium oxide formed during the welding process to form a neutral slag, which balances the fluidity. At the same time, it is embedded in the weld as a hard phase, which together with the carbides improves the surface wear resistance. It also works with rutile to supplement the silicon source and stabilize the silicon-titanium slag system. Detailed Implementation
