PendingCN122327098ATemperingAustenite grain
This invention discloses a thick-gauge bridge weathering steel with a compression ratio of less than 2.5 and its production method, belonging to the field of metallurgical technology. Addressing the problems of poor toughness and unsatisfactory flaw detection performance in thick-gauge bridge weathering steel with a compression ratio of less than 2.5, a synergistic process is adopted: "one-stage high-temperature high-reduction rolling + intermediate laminar flow rapid cooling to 900-950℃ + two-stage controlled rolling in the non-recrystallization zone + quenching and tempering heat treatment." The first-stage high reduction ensures core welding; the intermediate rapid cooling inhibits austenite grain growth and creates low-temperature conditions for finishing rolling; combined with quenching and tempering heat treatment, the microstructure is optimized. The resulting 60-75mm thick steel plate has a yield strength ≥400MPa, tensile strength ≥500MPa, elongation ≥25%, impact energy at -40℃ ≥200J, and ultrasonic flaw detection level II pass rate ≥95%, achieving a balance of high strength, high toughness, and high flaw detection pass rate at a low compression ratio.

Heat treatment process for controlling austenitic stainless steel grain size and microstructure uniformity

PendingCN122168835AAustenite grainCarbide
This invention discloses a heat treatment process for controlling grain size and microstructure uniformity in austenitic stainless steel. It is applied to 00Cr20Ni15Mn5Mo3N austenitic stainless steel with diameters of 100mm-400mm and lengths of 2000mm-5000mm. Through a limited-rate heating design combined with segmented medium-temperature holding, long-term holding at three key temperature points before the final solution temperature of 1065℃ allows for the dissolution and diffusion of carbides, nitrides, and intermetallic compounds such as the σ phase in the original microstructure, preventing damage during rapid heating. During the process, local overheating leads to grain growth, resulting in austenite grain size that is 2-3 grades higher than that of traditional processes. The staged holding provides sufficient time and energy for the diffusion of alloying elements, ensuring their uniform distribution in the austenite matrix, eliminating microscale compositional segregation, and improving material uniformity. The stepped heating process is an efficient stress relaxation process. Holding at 450℃ and 650℃ for extended periods can eliminate residual stress, improve workpiece dimensional stability, and effectively improve the phenomena of grain coarsening, uneven microstructure, and compositional segregation in the material.

This invention provides a 12Cr2Mo1V steel cylindrical section forging and its preparation method, relating to the field of forging technology. By increasing the forging ratio in the final forging pass, this invention helps to refine the grains, thereby improving the internal structure of the forging, eliminating structural defects, and enhancing the strength and impact toughness of the forging. Through quenching and tempering the forging, and controlling the quenching temperature at a relatively low level, this invention retains some undissolved VC particles in the matrix, which can pin grain boundaries and inhibit austenite grain growth, thus improving the impact toughness of the cylindrical section forging. Furthermore, controlling the quenching temperature at a low level reduces the solid solution V content, lowering the risk of complex carbide precipitation along grain boundaries during subsequent cooling, which is beneficial for improving the strength of the cylindrical section forging. In summary, the 12Cr2Mo1V cylindrical section forging prepared using the method of this invention exhibits high strength and high impact toughness.
