AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies have not yet been able to effectively prepare ultra-thick, high-strength duplex stainless steel composite plates suitable for harsh polar and marine environments, and cannot simultaneously achieve good low-temperature performance, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance, thus failing to meet the comprehensive performance requirements of large water pump bases.

Method used

Using S22053 duplex stainless steel as the cladding and high-strength low-temperature steel as the base layer, the production process of asymmetric billet assembly, accelerated cooling and tempering heat treatment ensures that the material has a short residence time in the sensitization temperature range. Combined with high-reduction rolling and laminar flow cooling, a microstructure mainly composed of pearlite and ferrite is formed, which improves the interfacial bonding rate and performance matching.

Benefits of technology

We produce extra-thick, high-strength duplex stainless steel composite plates with yield strength ≥460 MPa, tensile strength ≥550 MPa, elongation after fracture ≥17%, Charpy V-notch impact energy ≥60 J at -60 ℃, and shear strength ≥210 MPa. These plates possess excellent wear and corrosion resistance, meeting the requirements for deep-sea polar water pump bases.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of rolling composite technology and relates to a wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant extra-thick high-strength duplex stainless steel composite plate and its production method. Background Technology

[0002] Large water pumps are key equipment in the national economy and major projects, widely used in water conservancy projects, energy and power, municipal water supply, marine and shipbuilding industries. The base is its core supporting component, bearing the entire weight of the pump unit (pump body, motor, gearbox, etc.) and the complex dynamic loads generated during operation (such as vibration, torque, and impact). The performance of the base material directly affects the stability, reliability, accuracy, and lifespan of the entire unit. Therefore, the steel materials used for large water pump bases are developing towards high performance, lightweight, green manufacturing, and intelligent manufacturing.

[0003] With the development of polar and deep-sea resources, the demand for large water pumps has surged, requiring steel for large pump bases to have large thicknesses and excellent low-temperature, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant properties. However, there is still a lack of technology for preparing ultra-thick, high-strength duplex stainless steel composite plates suitable for the harsh environments of polar regions and the ocean. The market urgently needs a composite material that can combine the above-mentioned comprehensive properties and its reliable preparation process. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention aims to provide a wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant extra-thick high-strength duplex stainless steel composite plate and its production method. The plate has a thickness ≥100mm (base layer thickness ≥90mm, cladding layer thickness ≥10mm), yield strength ≥460 MPa, tensile strength ≥550 MPa, elongation after fracture ≥17%, Charpy V-notch impact energy at -60 ℃ ≥60 J, shear strength ≥210 MPa, straight plate shape, and 100% interfacial bonding rate.

[0005] The technical solution of this invention: A wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant extra-thick high-strength duplex stainless steel composite plate includes a stainless steel cladding and a base layer. The stainless steel cladding is made of S22053 duplex stainless steel, with the following chemical composition by mass percentage: C=0.02%~0.028%, Si=0.35%~0.55%, Mn=1.35%~1.55%, P≤0.03%, S≤0.004%, Cr=22.0%~22.5%, Ni=5.0%~5.3%, Mo=2.9%~3.3%, N=0.16%~0.19%, with the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. The base layer is high-strength low-temperature steel. The chemical composition, by mass percentage, is C=0.08%~0.11%, Si=0.15%~0.25%, Mn=1.45%~1.55%, P≤0.010%, S≤0.002%, Al=0.02%~0.05%, Nb=0.03%~0.04%, V=0.06%~0.07%, Ti=0.008%~0.02%, Cr=0.2%~0.3%, Cu=0.30%~0.35%, Ni=0.6%~0.7%, with the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities; the duplex stainless steel composite plate has a yield strength ≥460 MPa, tensile strength ≥550 MPa, elongation after fracture ≥17%, Charpy V-notch impact energy at -60 ℃ ≥60 J, shear strength ≥210 MPa, straight plate shape, and 100% interfacial bonding rate.

[0006] A method for producing an extra-thick, high-strength duplex stainless steel composite plate that is wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant includes the following process steps: (1) Assembly: The asymmetric AB type assembly method is adopted, where A is a high-strength low-temperature steel base material and B is S22053 stainless steel cladding material; the compression ratio is controlled between 3 and 5, and the surface treatment, assembly, welding blank packaging and vacuuming operations are carried out in sequence. (2) Heating: The composite billet is heated in the furnace within 48 hours after vacuuming. The heating temperature is 1170~1220℃. The total time in the furnace is ≥ billet thickness mm×1.0 min / mm, and the holding time is ≥ billet thickness mm×0.25 min / mm. (3) First stage rolling: initial rolling temperature ≥1080℃, final rolling temperature ≥1000℃, of which at least 2 passes have a reduction of ≥45mm, and the cumulative reduction rate is 70%~90%; (4) Controlled cooling of intermediate billet: Laminar flow cooling is adopted after rough rolling, with a cooling rate of 4~9℃ / s and a final cooling surface temperature of 830~860℃; (5) Second stage rolling: initial rolling temperature 810~830℃, final rolling temperature 780~820℃, cumulative reduction rate 40%~60%; (6) Cooling control: The starting cooling temperature is 750~790℃, the cooling rate is 5~12℃ / s, and the final cooling temperature is 650~690℃; (7) Heat treatment: Quenching and tempering heat treatment is adopted, the quenching temperature is 920±10℃, water cooling to room temperature, and the tempering temperature is 560±10℃. (8) Finishing: Straighten, measure, polish and package the composite board.

[0007] Technical principle explanation of the present invention: 1) The duplex stainless steel composite plate of the present invention uses S22053 duplex stainless steel as the cladding, which has excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance. By controlling the cooling of the intermediate billet and implementing accelerated cooling after the second stage rolling, combined with tempering heat treatment, the residence time of the material in the sensitization temperature range is shortened, thereby effectively maintaining the corrosion resistance of the cladding.

[0008] 2) The base layer is designed with low carbon and nickel microalloying components to ensure good low-temperature toughness. Combined with high-reduction rolling, accelerated cooling, and tempering, a microstructure dominated by pearlite and ferrite is obtained, achieving a good balance between strength and toughness. The presence of elements such as Cu, Cr, and Ni also endows the base layer with a certain degree of corrosion resistance.

[0009] 3) The use of an asymmetric single-layer billet structure helps to increase the compression ratio, improve the internal structure of thick plates, promote interfacial metallurgical bonding, and improve the bonding quality.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The produced wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant extra-thick high-strength duplex stainless steel composite plate has a thickness ≥100mm (base layer thickness ≥90mm, cladding layer thickness ≥10mm), yield strength ≥460 MPa, tensile strength ≥550 MPa, elongation after fracture ≥17%, Charpy V-notch impact energy at -60 ℃ ≥60 J, shear strength ≥210 MPa, straight plate shape, and 100% interfacial bonding rate. It possesses excellent wear and corrosion resistance, high shear strength, high strength, and excellent low-temperature performance, meeting the performance requirements for pump bases in deep-sea, polar, and marine environments.
