This invention relates to a method for preparing ultra-pure
smelting of high-strength and high-
toughness special steel at ultra-low temperatures. The
chemical composition (wt%) is controlled as follows: C≤0.01%, Si≤0.05%, Mn≤0.05%, S≤0.005%, P≤0.005%, Ni: 17.5~18.5%, Co: 8.0~9.0%, Mo: 3.0~3.8%, Al: 0.05~0.15%, Ti: 0.20~0.35%, H≤1.0 ppm, O≤16 ppm, N≤15 ppm, with the balance being Fe and other unavoidable impurities. Core Technology: A five-element synthetic
slag system of CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-MgO-CaF2 is introduced during the VIM stage. Utilizing the high-speed
directional solidification effect of VAR steady-state remelting, and through matching the
smelting environment and
cooling rate, the coarse, brittle
titanium sulfide phase is transformed into finely dispersed Al-Mg-Ti-S-O multiphase composite oxides. This achieves composite modification of inclusions and reduces their
number density from 45 inclusions / mm². 2 Reduced to 8.5 pieces / mm 2 It effectively eliminates the hazards of large particles >4μm. The average grain
diameter of the original
austenite is refined from 42.37μm to 26.38μm, the elongation of the material reaches 21.06%, and the
impact energy is as high as 143.63J, significantly improving the resistance to
brittle fracture and possessing extremely high
engineering application value.
