Description

The production method of zirconium and zircaloy heavy castings
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of production method of producing zirconium and zircaloy foundry goods, the production method of particularly a kind of zirconium and zircaloy heavy castings.
Technical background
Zirconium and zircaloy are a kind of relatively more expensive metal materials, in many strong corrosive mediums, have very excellent decay resistance, and the favorable mechanical performance is arranged.At present, the zirconium material has obtained using very widely as a kind of special resistant material, and especially in the reduction acid medium of high concentration high-temperature, the zirconium material is the preferred material that chemical industry equipment is made.Zirconium material fusing point is high, and thermal conductivity is lower, and linear expansion coefficient is less.Activity is very high during zirconium material high temperature, almost can chemical reaction in various degree take place with all refractory material, and the zirconium material is being very easy to and CO during high temperature 2, O 2, N 2And H 2Make the embrittlement of zirconium material cause equipment failure Deng gas generation chemical reaction.This makes the casting of zirconium and zircaloy must select the mold material of high chemical stability for use, guarantee zircaloy not with model generation chemical reaction, have less surface contamination layer.
At present, the organic processing graphite mold casting of casting technique, the precision-investment casting that can use of coloured active metal.The characteristics of machined graphite mold casting are that mould processing is simple and convenient, and mold strength is high, and thickness can be made according to design demand.But the fast liquid towards metal of graphite mould heat conduction has chilling action, forms cold shut easily and stays defective, especially heavy castings such as trace at cast(ing) surface, because that the long liquid metal temperature of filling time reduces is a lot, surperficial cold shut is bigger with the probability that stays trace to occur.Because model surface processing is coarse, cause foundry goods must stay bigger allowance to cause waste of material in addition.The characteristics of precision-investment casting are that surface quality of continuous castings is high, are suitable for the complex thin-wall foundry goods, but manufacture craft is comparatively complicated, and the thickness of making coating is limited, and is inapplicable for the cast of large-scale height and zircaloy foundry goods.
Look on the net from State Intellectual Property Office: application number is " a kind of process of producing zirconium and zircaloy pump, valve precision casting " patent of CN200910012462.4; Its technology employing fusible pattern ceramic shell hot investment casting and high temperature insostatic pressing (HIP) method production zirconium and zircaloy pump, valve precision casting; The hot investment casting of fusible pattern ceramic shell is meant adopts the fusible pattern ceramic shell to carry out the near-net-shape casting of foundry goods in the vacuum consumable skull crucible; The fusible pattern ceramic shell is according to forming with the consistent wax pattern of the pump valve member geometry system of turning over; Two-layer type shell material is made up of extraordinary oxide before its inner surface, and whole shell is through pressing wax, coating, extension shell, taking off process procedure such as cured, roasting and process; High temperature insostatic pressing (HIP), be the foundry goods that will handle place airtight high pressure resistant with can be heated in the container of high temperature, vacuumize earlier and afterwards charge into high-pressure inert gas, heat temperature raising is to predetermined temperature.Briefly: this is to adopt investment precision casting technology casting zirconium and zircaloy pump valve foundry goods, for heavy castings, adopts the accurate die cast operation of fusible pattern more complicated, and difficulty is big, and coating generally will be coated with more than 30~40 layers, is difficult to realize.In addition, the hip treatment expense is very expensive, adopts the high temperature insostatic pressing (HIP) method to improve casting quality and makes cost increase several times even ten times.
Summary of the invention
