Description

Economical high-strength and high-toughness non-quenched and tempered cold-forging steel and production method thereof
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of non-quenched and tempered cold-forging steel, and particularly relates to economical high-strength and high-toughness non-quenched and tempered cold-forging steel and a production method thereof.
Background
The fastener is the most common general basic member which is very important and has a large range, is widely applied to the industries of machinery manufacturing, engineering structures, railways, automobiles, tractors, buildings and the like, and about 70 percent of the connected members and combined devices are connected by the fastener. The fastener is mainly formed by cold heading, the material bears up to 70-80% of total deformation in the manufacturing process, and the material is required to have better plasticity and low hardness before cold heading, so that the cold-headed steel wire produced by the traditional process needs two heat treatment procedures of time-consuming and energy-consuming spheroidizing annealing and tempering before cold heading and drawing.
In recent years, under the pressure of energy conservation and cost reduction, a fastener manufacturer is urgent to develop a novel energy-saving cold heading steel wire rod capable of omitting quenching and tempering and spheroidizing annealing before drawing in place of quenched and tempered steel, so that energy can be saved, and the highest electric energy per ton of steel can be saved by 2500 kw.h according to statistics.
At present, the same level of quenched and tempered steel is achieved mainly by adopting microalloying, controlled rolling and controlled cooling and cold work hardening at home and abroad. The cold work reinforced non-quenched and tempered steel is researched and developed in the 80 s of the last 20 th century internationally, and the non-quenched and tempered cold heading steel is developed successfully in China, can be used for producing fasteners with small deformation such as screws, tooth bars and the like, and is mainly oriented to the mechanical and building industries. However, there are also problems such as relatively high mold loss due to high strength, inability to produce products with relatively large deformation, limited application range of toughness-limited products, and inability to apply to high-grade products such as automobiles, aviation, etc. In particular, 10.9 non-quenched and tempered cold-heading steel has not been applied in batches since the successful development, and the development of an economic high-strength and high-toughness non-quenched and tempered cold-heading steel product is a problem to be solved urgently.
Non-quenched and tempered dual-phase cold-heading steel for high-strength fasteners and a manufacturing method thereof are disclosed in patent publication No. CN101220439A published at 7 and 16 in 2008. The components and weight percentages thereof are as follows: c0.06-0.15%; si0.60-0.90%; mn1.40-2.0%; p is less than or equal to 0.025%; s is less than or equal to 0.025 percent; al is less than or equal to 0.04 percent; n is less than or equal to 0.0060 percent; v is 0.03-0.10%; nb0.04-0.08%; fe balance. The structure and performance required by the raw materials are obtained by adjusting the chemical components of the materials and controlling rolling and cooling, so that the energy is saved and the environment is not polluted. However, the strength of the application reaches 9.8 level at most, the use requirement of a 10.9-level high-strength fastener cannot be met, the microstructure always contains 15-30% of martensite, the die loss is relatively large in the drawing process, and the application cannot be applied in batches.
The publication number CN109306435A published in 2 months 5 of 2019 discloses a non-quenched and tempered cold-heading steel wire rod with good low-temperature impact property and a preparation method thereof, wherein the non-quenched and tempered cold-heading steel wire rod comprises the following chemical components in percentage by mass: c:0.13 to 0.23 percent, si is less than or equal to 0.30 percent, mn:1.00 to 1.40 percent, P is less than or equal to 0.025 percent, S is less than or equal to 0.015 percent, V is less than or equal to 0.10 percent, ti is less than or equal to 0.08 percent, al:0.010 to 0.040 percent, B:0.0010 to 0.0035 percent, cr is less than or equal to 0.20 percent, and the balance is Fe and unavoidable impurity elements; the preparation method comprises the working procedures of smelting, continuous casting, heating, rolling and cooling. The non-quenched and tempered cold heading steel wire rod with higher strength and low-temperature impact toughness is obtained by combining a good heating system, a rolling process and a cold control process through chemical composition design, and the requirement of downstream customers for producing double-headed rivets by adopting the cold heading process can be met. However, the structure of the application is ferrite and pearlite, the highest tensile strength reaches 9.8 grade, and the use requirement of a 10.9 grade high strength fastener can not be met.

The design idea of the application is as follows:
c: although the element C is necessary for obtaining high strength and hardness, on one hand, in order to obtain non-quenched and tempered steel mainly containing bainite, the content of C cannot be higher than 0.1%, otherwise, a microstructure mainly containing pearlite is easy to obtain, the required strength cannot be achieved, on the other hand, the excessive high content of C leads to excessively low transformation temperature of bainite, the density of movable dislocation in the steel is greatly improved, the yield ratio is reduced, and the durable deformation resistance of the fastener cannot be met. Meanwhile, in order to obtain a certain amount of ferrite and meet the plastic toughness, the C content is required to be more than 0.05%, so that the C content is preferably controlled to be 0.05% -0.10%.
Si: si as a solid solution hardening element contributes to the improvement of strength, and at the same time, the yield ratio is remarkably improved, the non-deformation of a fastener finished product is ensured, but the silicon can remarkably improve the deformation resistance of steel, and is unfavorable for cold heading and cold extrusion, the plasticity and toughness of steel are reduced due to the excessively high content of Si, the activity of C is increased, the decarburization and graphitization tendency of steel in the rolling heating process are promoted, smelting is difficult, inclusions are easily formed, and the fatigue resistance of steel is deteriorated. Therefore, the Si content is controlled to be 0.36-0.48%.
Mn: mn is the most effective and economical alloying element to obtain the bainitic structure. In order to obtain enough granular bainite, increasing the Mn content is effective in promoting bainite transformation, and when the content is less than 1.9%, the above-mentioned effects are difficult to be achieved. However, the Mn content is too high, so that the content of residual austenite after transformation is too high, the transformation temperature of bainite is too low, the yield strength and the yield ratio of steel are too low, the permanent deformation resistance of the fastener cannot be met, meanwhile, the internal stress of the structure is too large, and the fatigue performance is deteriorated. Thus controlling the Mn content to be 1.9% -2.3%.
Cr: the bainitic ferrite hardness can be obviously improved through solid solution strengthening, the hardness is lower due to low C content, meanwhile, the formed Cr dispersion carbide can obtain high fatigue resistance, but the toughness and cold workability of the steel are deteriorated due to the excessively high content, so that the Cr content is controlled to be 0.4% -0.60%.
Nb: nb and N, C elements in the steel form an Nb (C, N) precipitated phase, the Nb has a strong precipitation strengthening effect, and the solid-dissolved Nb can obviously inhibit the diffusion of C in the bainitic transformation process and play a role in refining bainitic ferrite, so that the high yield ratio is ensured. The range of Nb can be controlled between 0.02% and 0.04%.
B: b can obviously delay the beginning of ferrite line precipitation and increase the possibility of obtaining air-cooled bainite, but the B content is too high, so that thermal embrittlement is easy to occur, and the hot processing performance is influenced, so that the B is controlled to be 0.0005% -0.0030%.
Ti: the second phase particles precipitated at high temperature play a role in pinning original austenite grain boundaries, refine austenite, enable particles precipitated at low temperature to become nucleation points for ferrite and pearlite transformation, improve ferrite nucleation rate and refine ferrite. Finally, the produced steel has ultrafine crystals, excellent strength and plastic fit, and can be directly drawn and cold-headed without annealing. The excessive Ti content is easy to produce liquid-out large-particle TiN inclusion, reduces the fatigue performance of steel and is easy to cause forging crack, so the Ti content is controlled to be 0.04-0.06%.
Alt: alt is a stronger deoxidizing element, improves the oxidation resistance of steel, and refines austenite grains. In addition, the high Alt element is added to combine with nitrogen to form AlN, so that the pinning effect of dislocation is reduced, the blue embrittlement tendency is obviously reduced, meanwhile, the impact toughness is improved, but the Alt content is too high, coarse carbonitride is formed to cause the content of inclusions to be increased, and the delayed fracture resistance is reduced. The Alt content is controlled to be 0.015-0.035%.
S and P: impurity elements such as S, P are aggregated at grain boundaries, so that the delayed fracture resistance is greatly reduced. The P element can form micro segregation when molten steel is solidified, and then the P element is biased to a grain boundary when heated at an austenitizing temperature, so that the brittleness of the steel is obviously increased, and the delayed fracture sensitivity of the steel is increased; the S element forms Mn S inclusion and segregation in grain boundary, so that the delayed fracture sensitivity of the steel is increased, and therefore, the content of P, S is controlled to be less than or equal to 0.020% of P and less than or equal to 0.020% of S.
T.o and N: oxygen forms various oxide inclusions in the steel.
