Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of roll grinding, and particularly relates to a grinding method for gradient nano rolls. Background Technology

[0002] Rolls, as core components of rolling mills, are widely used in steel, non-ferrous metals, automotive, and mining industries. The global market size reached tens of billions of yuan in 2024 and continues to grow. Main materials include alloy forged steel, alloy cast steel, and cast iron. Functionally, they can be categorized into work rolls, intermediate rolls, and support rolls. The main failure modes of rolls are wear, cracking, spalling, and fracture. Wear and cracking are the primary causes of roll failure. Surface quality issues, such as uneven microstructure, lack of density, elemental segregation, uneven hardness, and microcracks, can lead to notch sensitivity, causing cracks to develop under working stress and propagate further, resulting in roll failure. Research (Huang Qingxue, "Research and Application of Rolling Mill Bearing and Roll Life") shows that the failure rate of hot-rolled and cold-rolled work rolls due to normal wear is 25% and 50%, respectively, while the failure rate due to cracking is 60% and 20%, respectively. In addition, the working layer accounts for only 15% to 20% of the total hardened layer thickness, which leads to a sharp drop in the surface hardness of the roll after regrinding. A large number of rolls are scrapped prematurely due to insufficient performance before reaching the minimum roll diameter, and the rolling loss of a single roll is as high as several thousand tons.

[0003] Traditional methods for improving the wear resistance and hardness of roll materials include further alloying and increasing the depth of the surface hardened layer. These methods have certain limitations. For example, alloying suffers from a strength-plasticity inversion problem, meaning that high-strength materials lack sufficient toughness and fatigue resistance, making them prone to cracking or spalling under alternating stress. For instance, 9Cr2Mo achieves a hardness of HRC58-62 after quenching, but the crack propagation rate under alternating stress increases by 3-5 times. Furthermore, the use of multiple alloying elements makes smelting and purification difficult, violating the principles of a circular economy and creating recycling barriers. Surface hardening technology faces challenges such as the risk of quenching cracks, microstructure coarsening and performance degradation, and energy consumption and efficiency bottlenecks. For example, rapid cooling leads to differences in thermal expansion between the surface and core, significantly increasing the tendency for cracking in tensile stress concentration areas; deep hardening requires extended high-temperature holding time, and austenite grain coarsening (ASTM grade 3-4 → 1-2) reduces impact toughness by 50%; single-process induction hardening takes more than 8 hours, and energy consumption accounts for 25% of the roll production cost.

[0004] Therefore, some scholars have proposed applying material simplification to the rolling mill industry. Without introducing external elements, a gradient nanostructure (surface nanocrystals - subsurface ultrafine grains - core coarse grains) with high hardness, high wear resistance and fatigue resistance can be prepared on the surface of the rolling mill through surface mechanical grinding, rolling and pressing processes. The surface nanocrystals (hardness HRC≥65) provide ultra-high wear resistance, and the gradient structure coordinates plastic deformation through dynamic grain boundary migration, thereby increasing fatigue life by 2 to 3 times.

[0005] Because rolls are subjected to high stress and friction for extended periods, their surfaces are prone to damage and material adhesion, necessitating periodic regrinding. Typically, work rolls require regrinding after several hundred hours of rolling. While gradient nanotechnology significantly improves roll performance, the ultra-high surface hardness poses a severe challenge to subsequent grinding and repair processes. Traditional grinding methods reduce the efficiency of corundum / silicon carbide wheels by 70%, while diamond wheels are prohibitively expensive (5-10 times the price of traditional wheels), and the accumulated grinding heat (>800℃) can easily induce surface phase transformations and microcracks. Existing technologies such as laser processing and electrical discharge machining can alleviate grinding difficulties to some extent, but they also have their own limitations.

[0006] (1) Laser processing technology utilizes localized melting to remove materials. However, a large heat input can lead to a large heat-affected zone (>200 μm), disrupting the continuity of the surface gradient structure and coarsening the surface nanocrystals and subsurface ultrafine grains, thereby affecting its microstructure and mechanical properties. In addition, the investment cost of laser equipment is high, making it less cost-effective for large-scale production. Furthermore, laser processing efficiency is lower than that of grinding wheels, and it may face problems of insufficient laser power or precision in the processing of some special materials.

[0007] (2) Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a machining method that removes metal from the surface of a workpiece through electrical discharge. Although this technology has certain advantages in machining high-hardness materials, it also has some limitations, such as low machining efficiency (<5mm). 3 / min); a relatively serious heat-affected zone is generated on the surface of the workpiece, which affects the microstructure and properties of the material; conductive materials are also required, while the application of non-conductive or difficult-to-conduct materials is greatly limited.

[0008] In summary, existing technologies cannot achieve efficient and low-cost grinding repair of high-hardness rolls without damaging the gradient nanostructure, which severely restricts the industrialization and promotion of this technology. Summary of the Invention

[0116] Example 1

[0117] A gradient nano-scale Cr3 roll (Φ435×1240mm) underwent surface micro-corrosion synergistic grinding treatment. The roll achieved a surface hardness of HRC≥65, with a grain size of 20~50nm in the outermost layer (0~50μm), 100~500nm in the second layer (50~200μm), and a coarse grain size ≥1μm in the core. The specific treatment process is as follows:

[0118] 1) Roll pretreatment:

[0119] First, the rolls are immersed in a 5wt% NaOH solution for 20 minutes to remove oil, rust, and scale from the roll surface, roll neck, shaft head, and soft belt area. Then, fluorinated modified epoxy resin is sprayed onto the roll neck, roll head, and soft belt area of ​​the rolls, with a coating thickness of 200μm and an acid resistance rating of Class A.

[0120] 2) Micro-corrosion treatment:
