Description
A high-strength pressure-resistant alloy material for drill pipes and its preparation method Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of alloy materials technology, specifically to a high-strength, pressure-resistant alloy material for drill pipes and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] As global oil and gas exploration expands into deeper, ultra-deeper formations and more complex geological environments, drilling depths are constantly breaking records, and downhole operating conditions are becoming increasingly harsh. Drill pipe, as the hub connecting surface equipment and bottom-hole drilling tools, must withstand complex alternating loads such as tension, torsion, and bending during its service life. Especially in deep well operations, bottom-hole temperatures often exceed 175°C, and even reach over 200°C. Under such high-temperature and high-pressure environments, traditional high-strength low-alloy steel drill pipe materials such as S135 and G105 face severe challenges: on the one hand, the increased thermal vibration of the matrix lattice and reduced dislocation slip resistance lead to a significant thermal decay of yield strength with increasing temperature, seriously affecting the safety of the drill string; on the other hand, second-phase particles (such as carbides and nitrides) introduced to improve strength are prone to Ostwald ripening at high temperatures, i.e., small particles dissolve and large particles engulf and grow, causing the dispersion strengthening effect to fail and the material to soften rapidly.
[0003] To overcome these problems, existing technologies often attempt to introduce novel nano-reinforcing phases such as graphene and carbon nanotubes. However, these nanomaterials have enormous specific surface areas and extremely high surface energies, making them highly susceptible to irreversible aggregation in steel matrices, forming microscopic crack initiation sites. Although ball milling or simple surfactant modification can improve dispersibility to some extent, this physical or weak chemical bond is extremely fragile under high temperature and high stress. The lack of interlayer support in graphene makes it prone to recombination under hot pressing, losing its high modulus properties; simultaneously, the lack of strong chemical bonds between the reinforcing phase and the metal matrix results in a mechanically interlocked interface, which is prone to decoupling and slippage at high temperatures, leading to load transfer failure.
[0004] Therefore, how to construct an interface structure with high-temperature thermal stability while ensuring the monodispersity of the nano-reinforcing phase, suppressing the coarsening of the reinforcing phase, and solving the problem of poor interfacial bonding is a key technical bottleneck that urgently needs to be solved in the preparation of high-performance deep well drill pipe materials. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to propose a high-strength pressure-resistant alloy material for drill pipe and its preparation method, so as to solve the problem of severe attenuation of high-temperature yield strength and imbalance of strength and toughness caused by coarsening of reinforcing phase in deep well drill pipe materials.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a high-strength pressure-resistant drill pipe alloy material, which is obtained by mixing, grinding, and sintering a matrix alloy powder and a modified composite precursor powder.
[0007] The modified composite precursor powder is made from monolayer graphene oxide powder. After vanadium acetylacetonate intercalation and solvothermal reduction to form intercalated reduced graphene oxide composite powder, a polydopamine active layer is constructed on its surface in tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane buffer using the auto-oxidative polymerization reaction of dopamine hydrochloride. The modified precursor powder is formed by the coordination chelation of vanadium trichloride by this layer.

[0012] Preferably, the single-layer graphene oxide powder sheet has a diameter of 0.5-5 μm and a thickness of 0.8-1.2 nm.
[0013] Preferably, the reaction temperature of the solvothermal reduction is 170-190℃, and the reaction time is 10-14h.
[0014] Preferably, the molar concentration of the vanadium trichloride aqueous solution is 0.1 mol / L.
[0015] Preferably, the concentration of the trihydroxymethylaminomethane buffer solution is 8-12 mM.
[0016] Preferably, the matrix alloy powder is prepared by vacuum induction melting gas atomization method.
[0017] Preferably, the vacuum induction melting gas atomization method is carried out in an argon atmosphere, and the heating temperature is 1600℃.
[0018] Preferably, the atomization pressure of the vacuum induction melting gas atomization method is 4.5 MPa, and the atomizing gas is high-purity nitrogen.
[0019] Preferably, the particle size of the matrix alloy powder is 15-53 μm.
[0020] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a method for preparing a high-strength pressure-resistant drill pipe alloy material, comprising the following steps: mixing and grinding a matrix alloy powder and a modified composite precursor powder evenly, then loading the mixture into a mold for hot isostatic pressing, and after cooling, performing a tempering heat treatment to obtain the high-strength pressure-resistant drill pipe alloy material.
[0021] Preferably, the grinding is carried out under argon protection, with a rotation speed of 280-320 r / min and a ball milling time of 1.5-2.5 h.
[0022] Preferably, the filling process of the mold is carried out in conjunction with a high-frequency mechanical vibration table (frequency 50-60Hz).
[0023] Preferably, the hot isostatic pressing uses argon as the pressure transmission medium. The temperature is first raised to 800-850°C at a rate of 10-15°C / min, and the pressure is maintained at 80MPa for 30-60min. Then, the temperature is raised to 1100-1200°C at a rate of 5-8°C / min, and the pressure is maintained at 120MPa for 3h.
[0024] Preferably, the quenching and tempering heat treatment process involves austenitizing water quenching at 900-940℃ for 50-70 minutes, followed by high-temperature tempering at 580-620℃ for 1.5-2.5 hours.
[0025] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention employs a unique dual confinement strategy of in-situ nitridation of vanadium acetylacetone interlayers and secondary chelation of vanadium ions at a polydopamine biomimetic interface, which is mainly reflected in the following aspects: First, this invention utilizes the intercalation effect of vanadium acetylacetone molecules and subsequent solvothermal reactions to generate nano-vanadium nitride hard support phases in situ between graphene oxide layers. This effectively overcomes the interlayer collapse and recombination problems caused by van der Waals forces during subsequent high-temperature sintering and service of graphene, maximizing the preservation of the high aspect ratio and high strength of the reinforcing phase. The elastic modulus provides an extremely stable high-temperature skeletal support for the matrix, significantly reducing the thermal decay of the material's yield strength at high temperatures. Secondly, this invention constructs a flexible interface layer rich in vanadium carbonitride quantum dots in situ on the surface of the reinforcing phase through biomimetic modification with polydopamine and secondary vanadium ion chelation. On the one hand, the excellent wettability of polydopamine improves the dispersion uniformity of the reinforcing phase in the steel matrix; on the other hand, the in-situ generated ultrafine vanadium carbonitride quantum dots act as powerful grain boundary pinning particles at high temperatures, hindering grain growth and dislocation climb. It also effectively suppresses the long-range diffusion of vanadium atoms at high temperatures, doubly blocking the Ostwald ripening process of the precipitated phase from both thermodynamic and kinetic perspectives, ensuring the dimensional stability of the reinforcing phase in the high-temperature environment of deep wells. Finally, the gradient microstructure constructed in this invention achieves a strong interfacial bond dominated by chemical bonding between the reinforcing phase and the matrix. The carbides / carbonitrides generated at the interface act as rivet points, which not only efficiently transfer loads and improve material strength but also induce deflection and bridging during crack propagation, dissipating deformation energy. This significantly improves the high-temperature yield strength of the material while avoiding brittle fracture caused by interfacial debonding, achieving a synergistic improvement in strength, toughness, and high-temperature stability, and meeting the stringent requirements of drill pipe materials under complex deep well conditions.

Standard tensile specimens were cut from the sintered green bodies prepared in the examples and comparative examples using an electric discharge wire cutter. The gauge length was 25 mm, and the diameter of the parallel sections was 5 mm. Testing was conducted using a universal testing machine equipped with an extensometer.

[0037] Table 1 Performance Test Results
[0038] Data Analysis: As can be seen from the data in Examples 1-3 of Table 1, the high-strength, pressure-resistant drill pipe alloy material prepared by this invention successfully achieves excellent high-temperature stability and a good strength-toughness balance while ensuring extremely high strength. This indicates that the microstructure constructed by adjusting the raw material ratio in this invention has good process robustness. This is likely due to the effective functioning of the internal vanadium nitride hard core support and the external vanadium carbonitride quantum dot flexible pinning structure. This structure not only provides strong dispersion strengthening and fine-grain strengthening effects at room temperature, but more importantly, it effectively hinders grain boundary slip and dislocation climb at high temperatures. This overcomes the common problem of traditional nano-reinforced phases easily undergoing Ostwald ripening at high temperatures, leading to strengthening failure, and fully meets the stringent requirements for material mechanical properties in deep and ultra-deep well drilling operations.
[0039] As can be seen from the data in Table 1 for Example 2 and Comparative Example 1, the interlayer intercalation step of vanadium acetylacetonate plays a decisive role in maintaining the high-temperature strength stability of the material. It is speculated that this is because the in-situ generated interlayer nitride hard core of vanadium acetylacetonate is equivalent to driving wedges between the graphene sheets, effectively preventing interlayer collapse. This unique internal support structure provides a more rigid constraint to the matrix at high temperatures, thereby significantly reducing the thermal decay of the material.
[0040] As can be seen from the data in Example 2 and Comparative Example 2 in Table 1, the secondary chelation of vanadium ions by the polydopamine interface layer is a key technical feature for solving the problems of insufficient toughness and poor interfacial bonding in nano-reinforced materials. It is speculated that this is because the vanadium ions introduced through chelation transform into dispersed vanadium carbonitride quantum dots at high temperatures. These quantum dots form strong chemical bonds (pinning effect) between the matrix and the reinforcing phase, which can effectively transfer loads and improve strength, and also absorb energy through interfacial deflection cracks, thereby avoiding brittle fracture caused by interfacial debonding and achieving a synergistic improvement in strength and toughness.
[0041] As can be seen from the data in Example 2 and Comparative Example 3 in Table 1, the complete interlayer intercalation + surface chelation dual modification strategy is superior to a single modification method. This technique can construct a gradient transition layer through surface modification, and truly transform the excellent properties of the modified precursor into the mechanical properties of the macroscopic material.
[0042] As can be seen from the data in Example 2 and Comparative Example 4 in Table 1, the composite material of the present invention achieves a significant improvement in mechanical properties compared to the pure matrix alloy. This is presumably due to the construction of a heat-resistant reinforcing network at the matrix grain boundaries through a special microstructure design, which effectively suppresses high-temperature softening and demonstrates the advanced design of the metal matrix composite material.
[0043] As can be seen from the data in Table 1 for Example 2 and Comparative Example 5, the in-situ chemical modification route is significantly superior to the traditional physical mixing process. This indicates that molecular-level assembly and in-situ reaction achieved through chemical means ensure the uniform dispersion of the reinforcing phase and the metallurgical bonding of the interface, thereby achieving toughness and high-temperature stability far exceeding those of the physically mixed state while maintaining high strength.
[0044] Those skilled in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely exemplary and is not intended to imply that the scope of the invention is limited to these examples; within the framework of the invention, the technical features of the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of the invention as described above, which are not provided in detail for the sake of brevity.
