[0036] The embodiment of the present application provides a production method of a steel, which is improved from two aspects of chemical composition and preparation process, and compared with the prior art, a steel plate product with low yield ratio, easy welding and high strength and toughness is prepared in the case of low alloy content, low production difficulty and short production cycle.

[0037] In terms of chemical composition, the chemical composition of the steel of an embodiment of the present application includes, in terms of mass percentage: C: 0.08-0.14%, Si: 0.11-0.18%, Mn: 1.31-1.47%, Nb: 0.011-0.032%, Ti: 0.009-0.017%, Al: 0.026-0.046%, Cr≤0.13%, Ni≤0.13%, P≤0.0151%, S≤0.0080%, N≤0.0045%, and the balance being iron and inevitable impurities.

[0038] The detailed description of the effects and control of each chemical component is as follows.

[0039] C: Carbon is the most economical strengthening element in steel, has a significant solid solution strengthening effect, can effectively reduce the yield ratio, and can form carbides with Nb, Ti, Cr, Mo, etc., to play a precipitation strengthening role; when the carbon content is lower than 0.08%, the improvement effect on improving the strength and reducing the yield ratio is not obvious; when the carbon content is higher than 0.14%, the toughness and welding performance will be poor. In some embodiments, the C content is preferably 0.11-0.14%, 0.10-0.13%, 0.09-0.12% or 0.08-0.11%.

[0040] Si: Silicon in steel plays a solid solution strengthening effect, when the Si content is lower than 0.11%, the solid solution strengthening effect is not obvious; when the Si content exceeds 0.18%, Fe2SiO4 is easily produced on the surface of the continuous casting billet, which is not easy to remove during descaling, and is not conducive to the surface quality of the steel plate.

[0041] Mn: Manganese in steel plays a solid solution strengthening role, and is the most economical strengthening element besides carbon, when the Mn content is lower than 1.31%, the solid solution strengthening effect is not obvious; when the Mn content exceeds 1.47%, segregation is easily formed in the center of the slab, which reduces the low-temperature toughness of the steel plate, and is not conducive to the welding performance. In some embodiments, the Mn content is preferably 1.31-1.39%, 1.34-1.42%, 1.37-1.45% or 1.39-1.47%.

[0042] Nb: Niobium is an important grain refining element in steel, when the Nb content exceeds 0.011%, niobium carbonitride precipitates are formed during rolling, which refines the recrystallized grains, and niobium can continue to precipitate in the form of carbonitride during cooling, which refines the structure after phase transformation, improves the strength and toughness; however, when Nb is greater than 0.032%, it will increase the alloy cost, and the precipitation strengthening is not conducive to the yield ratio. In some embodiments, the Nb content is preferably 0.011-0.019%, 0.014-0.022%, 0.024-0.032% or 0.021-0.029%.

[0043] Ti: Titanium is a nitrogen-fixing element in steel, which can form dispersed titanium nitride particles to inhibit austenite grain coarsening during billet heating and rolling. When the content of Ti is less than 0.009%, Ti cannot fully play its role, and when the content of Ti is greater than 0.017%, titanium carbonitride is prone to precipitate in the center of the cast blank, affecting the low-temperature toughness of the center of the steel plate.

[0044] Al: Aluminum is a deoxidizing element in steel. When the content of Al is less than 0.026%, Al cannot effectively realize its deoxidizing effect, and when the content of Al is greater than 0.046%, the content of Al2O3 inclusions in steel increases, affecting the low-temperature toughness of the steel.

[0045] P, S, N: Impurity elements; but at the same time, S element can also form MnS inclusions with Mn to reduce the low-temperature toughness of the steel. Optionally, P≤0.0151%, S≤0.0080%, N≤0.0045%, but not limited to this. In some embodiments, the content of P is preferably 0.0101-0.0151%, the content of N is preferably 0.0025-0.0045%, and the content of S is preferably 0.0020-0.0080%.

[0046] Ni: Nickel in steel plays a solid solution strengthening role and is beneficial to low-temperature toughness. Therefore, in the present application, Ni element can be selectively not added or added in a certain amount, for example, when the content of Ni is 0.07-0.13%, the low-temperature toughness can be greatly improved.

[0047] Cr: Chromium in steel plays a solid solution strengthening role, and can delay pearlite transformation. Therefore, in the present application, Cr element can be selectively not added or added in a certain amount, for example, when the content of Cr is 0.07% or more, the low-temperature toughness can be greatly improved, and if the content of Cr exceeds 0.13%, it is not conducive to the welding performance. Therefore, in an embodiment, the content of Cr is preferably 0.07-0.13%.

[0048] Further, in terms of chemical composition, the carbon equivalent CEV of the steel satisfies 0.328-0.371.

[0049] wherein the carbon equivalent CEV = [C] + [Mn] / 6 + ([Cr] + [Mo] + [V]) / 5 + ([Cu] + [Ni]) / 15, in the formula, [C], [Mn], [Cr], [Mo], [V], [Cu], [Ni] represent the mass percentage of C, Mn, Cr, Mo, V, Cu, Ni and other elements in steel, for example, the mass percentage of C in steel is 0.09%, then the mass percentage of C is 0.09, which is brought into the formula of CEV.

[0050] In addition, in the present application, the content of each element in the steel can be determined by sampling the steel in solid form such as a billet or a steel sheet product and measuring it.

[0051] In a preferred embodiment, the chemical composition of the steel comprises, in mass percent: C: 0.11-0.14%, Si: 0.11-0.18%, Mn: 1.31-1.39%, Nb: 0.011-0.019%, Ti: 0.009-0.017%, Al: 0.026-0.046%, P≤0.0151%, S≤0.0080%, N≤0.0045%, the remainder being iron and unavoidable impurities; and the carbon equivalent CEV satisfies 0.328-0.371.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment, the chemical composition of the steel comprises, in mass percent: C: 0.10-0.13%, Si: 0.11-0.18%, Mn: 1.34-1.42%, Nb: 0.014-0.022%, Ti: 0.009-0.017%, Al: 0.026-0.046%, P≤0.0151%, S≤0.0080%, N≤0.0045%, the remainder being iron and unavoidable impurities; and the carbon equivalent CEV satisfies 0.323-0.366.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment, the chemical composition of the steel comprises, in mass percent: C: 0.09-0.12%, Si: 0.11-0.18%, Mn: 1.37-1.45%, Nb: 0.024-0.032%, Ti: 0.009-0.017%, Al: 0.026-0.046%, P≤0.0151%, S≤0.0080%, N≤0.0045%, the remainder being iron and unavoidable impurities; and the carbon equivalent CEV satisfies 0.318-0.361.

[0054] In a preferred embodiment, the chemical composition of the steel comprises, in mass percent: C: 0.08-0.11%, Si: 0.11-0.18%, Mn: 1.39-1.47%, Ni: 0.07-0.13%, Nb: 0.021-0.029%, Ti: 0.009-0.017%, Al: 0.026-0.046%, Cr: 0.07-0.13%, P≤0.0151%, S≤0.0080%, N≤0.0045%, the remainder being iron and unavoidable impurities; and the carbon equivalent CEV satisfies 0.333-0.380.

[0055] Further, in the production process, the production method of an embodiment of the present application includes the following steps.

[0056] Step 1, steel casting step

[0057] That is, by molten steel smelting, casting to get billets, the chemical composition as described above.

[0058] Specific molten steel smelting technology, casting technology can be disclosed in the art to be implemented. For example, KR desulfurization, converter smelting, RH refining, LF refining, continuous casting technology, preparation to get the chemical composition of the above-described steel billets.

[0059] Step 2, heating step

[0060] That is, the billet in the heating furnace for heating, the highest temperature T1+10℃ or more, T2 below. That is, the billet in the heating furnace to T1+10℃ or more, T2 below. Usually, the heating furnace set temperature, that is, it is believed that the billet in the heating furnace to the temperature, and do not need to measure the temperature element to the billet direct contact / measurement to determine the temperature of the billet.

[0061] T1 value is T NbC , T NbN and T TiC the maximum value.

[0062] Where, T NbC , T NbN , T TiC and T TiN respectively NbC, NbN, TiC and TiN complete solid solution temperature.

[0063] In an alternative embodiment, can be calculated by lg([Nb]x[N])=3.70-10800 / (T NbN +273.15), lg([Nb]x[C])=2.26-6770 / (T NbC +273.15), lg([Ti]x[C])=5.33-10475 / (T TiC +273.15), lg([Ti]x[N])=0.32-8000 / (T TiN +273.15) T NbN , T NbC , T TiC and T TiN , [Nb], [N]), [C], [Ti] are Nb, N, C, Ti in the billet mass percentage.

[0064] Of course, in the variant embodiment, T NbC , T NbN , T TiC and T TiNIt can also be obtained in a manner known in the art, for example, industry experience value.

[0065] T2 is T1+50℃, T TiN Maximum value in 150℃.

[0066] Thus, by controlling the temperature in the heating furnace to be above T1+10℃ and below T2, the Nb precipitates in the steel are completely dissolved, the Ti carbides are completely dissolved, and the Ti nitrides are retained, preventing abnormal growth of austenite grains, and further ensuring the comprehensive performance of the finished steel plate.

[0067] Step 3, controlled rolling step

[0068] After exiting the heating furnace, the billet is first rolled to 4-6.8 times the finished thickness at a rolling temperature of above T3 and below T3+40℃ to obtain a first intermediate plate; then rolled to 1.8-3.2 times the finished thickness at a rolling temperature of above T4-50℃ and below T4+20℃ to obtain a second intermediate plate; and finally rolled to the finished thickness at a rolling temperature of above T5-55℃ and below T5.

[0069] That is, in an embodiment of the present application, the temperature during rolling of the billet to 4-6.8 times the finished thickness, the temperature during rolling of 4-6.8 times the finished thickness to 1.8-3.2 times the finished thickness, and the temperature during rolling of 1.8-3.2 times the finished thickness to completion are controlled, so that, on the one hand, sufficient recrystallization and refined recrystallized grains are ensured, on the other hand, the recrystallized equiaxed grains are deformed and flattened, and on the other hand, rolling deformation is used to induce ferrite transformation, ferrite transformation occurs in the deformation zone or at the grain boundaries, and fine ferrite grains are obtained, thereby ensuring the yield strength and good toughness of the steel plate.

[0070] Wherein:

[0071] T3≥T4≥T5;

[0072] T5=910-310[C]-80[Mn]-15[Cr];

[0073] In the formulas, [C], [Nb], [Ti], [Al], [Si], and [Ni] are the mass percentages of C, Nb, Ti, Al, Si, and Ni in the billet, respectively.

[0074] Step 4, controlled cooling step

[0075] The rolled steel plate is air-cooled to above T6-50℃ and below T6+20℃ at a cooling rate of 1-10℃ / s, then water-cooled to above T7-30℃ and below T7+130℃ at a cooling rate of 5-30℃ / s, and then naturally cooled to room temperature, to obtain a steel plate product.

[0076] That is, in an embodiment of the present application, the hot-rolled steel plate is divided into three stages with different cooling rates and cooling modes during cooling. In the first cooling stage, ferrite phase transformation occurs, and the presence of ferrite ensures low yield strength of the steel plate. In the second stage, the carbon-rich supercooled austenite phase in the steel plate is rapidly cooled to transform into acicular ferrite / bainite structure, and the acicular ferrite / bainite transformation is complete through the control of the final cooling temperature. In addition, the control of the cooling rate effectively avoids the generation of martensite phase or pearlite phase. Furthermore, the control of the above temperatures can also improve the plate shape of the steel plate product. In summary, the above aspects ensure high tensile strength, low yield ratio, excellent low-temperature toughness, excellent plate shape, and good welding performance of the steel plate.

[0077] wherein:

[0078] T5≥T6≥T7;

[0079] T7 = 539-423[C]-17.7[Ni]-12.1[Cr]-11[Si]-30.4[Mn];

[0080] T6 = 830-270[C]-90[Mn]-37[Ni]-70[Cr];
