The effect of invention
According to the present invention, behind the hot-rolled steel plate that will define chemical ingredients,, improve the steel plate before and after the strain aging and the energy of deformation of steel pipe while, can reduce the strength variance of steel plate and steel pipe by repeating water-cooled and the backflow heat exchange is cooled off.Consequently, the security with respect to line pipe is greatly improved.
Embodiment
Below, content of the present invention is elaborated.
The present invention relates to have the invention of the superstrength line pipe of above tensile strength (TS) of 625MPa and excellent in low temperature toughness.The superstrength line pipe of this intensity level is compared with the X65 of main flow in the past, but about 1.2~2.0 times pressure of the Chinese People's Anti-Japanese Military and Political College is therefore availablely carried more gas with identical in the past size.When using X65, need the wall thickness of extra strong pipe spool with higher pressure.Therefore, materials cost, transport charge, site welding construction cost improve, and line pipe is laid expense and risen significantly.Therefore, lay expense, need have the above tensile strength (TS) of 625MPa and the superstrength line pipe of excellent in low temperature toughness in order to cut down line pipe.On the other hand, when the intensity of desired steel pipe increased, it is very difficult that the manufacturing of steel pipe becomes.Particularly, when requiring " strain based design ", not only need to obtain intensity and the balance of low-temperature flexibility and the toughness of seam weldering portion of mother metal, and must also be comprised the target property of the energy of deformation behind the strain aging.But it is very difficult satisfying these all characteristics.
In the line pipe that requires " strain based design ", the intensity of the welding metal between the pipe connecting spool (intensity of circumference weld part) must be higher than the intensity of the length direction (tube axial direction of line pipe) of mother metal (being the part of the steel plate of steel plate or steel pipe).In using the environment of line pipe, frozen soil dissolved or generated frozen soil winter once more summer sometimes.In this case, line pipe produces distortion, ruptures from the circumference weld part.Particularly the intensity at the circumference weld part is under the situation of low strong coupling, then to rupture under littler distortion with respect to strength of parent.Therefore, need make the intensity of the length direction of mother metal be lower than the intensity of circumference weld part, according to the difference of the intensity of circumference weld part and to the intensity capping of the length direction of mother metal.Particularly, because each grade of line pipe has strength range, therefore according to the difference of this upper limit, the intersity limitation of mother metal that will be used to make line pipe is in narrow scope.Therefore, require stably to make line pipe and the mother metal thereof that has suppressed strength variance.
For the tensile strength with the mother metal of line pipe is limited in more than the 625MPa and is limited in narrow scope, the contriver has carried out research with great concentration.Consequently, understood fully as steel plate and adopted soft steel that the cooling conditions optimization when making the hot rolling of steel plate is very important.For example, if the C amount surpasses 0.08%, then hardenability is too high, thereby changes greatly in the central part and the surface strength of steel plate.Therefore, adopt soft steel as steel plate.In addition, for example,, cool off,, or generate martensite or do not generate martensite then according to the difference of the method for cooling of surface of steel plate if do not limit the cooling conditions of surface of steel plate fully even C amount is below 0.08%.At this moment, between the thickness direction central part (steel plate inside) of surface of steel plate and steel plate, produce difference of hardness, or in a block plate or between the steel plate of making, produce strength variance, therefore, can not make the line pipe of intensity with narrow range.
Adopt Figure 1A and Figure 1B that the deviation of above-mentioned intensity is described.Figure 1A is the sketch chart of Hardness Distribution of the thickness of slab direction of the steel plate made, and Figure 1B is the sketch chart of temperature distribution of the thickness of slab direction of the steel plate in the cooling.In Figure 1A and Figure 1B, dotted line is represented the center of thickness of slab, and long and short dash line (a) expression utilizes the result of the simple cooling (for example cooling conditions of the dotted line among Fig. 2 (i) expression) of water-cooled, and the result of cooling conditions of the present invention is adopted in solid line (b) expression.Shown in the long and short dash line (a) of Figure 1A, do not cool off not limiting the cooling conditions of surface of steel plate fully under the situation of (simple cooling), between the thickness of slab direction central part (steel plate inside) of surface of steel plate and steel plate, produce difference of hardness.This difference of hardness results from the temperature distribution of thickness of slab direction of the steel plate in the cooling shown in Figure 1B.Surface of steel plate directly contacts with water during water-cooled, therefore is cooled easily.But in steel plate inside, because of the speed of cooling domination that is subjected to conduct heat, so steel plate inside is compared with surface of steel plate and is not easy to be cooled.Therefore, in surface of steel plate and steel plate inside, can obtain the different tissue of hardness respectively.Therefore, in simple cooling,, in the steel plate of making, produce Hardness Distribution according to the difference of the temperature distribution in the steel plate in the cooling.Such Hardness Distribution is not limited to the thickness of slab direction, can be created in the place arbitrarily in the steel plate according to the unequal ununiformity of the refrigerative water yield.Strength variance in such steel plate may cause becoming problem aspect the surface imperfection such as wrinkle or crackle when the manufacturing of the steel pipe of surface of steel plate generation stress concentration.In addition, in simple cooling, the temperature that stops the steel plate water-cooled often changes in each is made batch, therefore is easy to generate strength variance between the steel plate of making.
In order to suppress the deviation of such intensity, not once to make the surface of steel plate cooling but repeat water-cooled and backflow heat exchange described later is cooled off on one side, successfully suppressed in the block plate thus and the deviation of the intensity between the steel plate of manufacturing.So-called backflow heat exchange refers to by water-cooled is stopped the specified time, makes heat pass to surface of steel plate (from the heat transfer of high-temperature portion to low-temp. portion) from steel plate inside, thus the processing that after water-cooled, improves the temperature of surface of steel plate (low-temp. portion) immediately.Under the effect of this backflow heat exchange, steel plate temperature head inner and surface of steel plate reduces, and the temperature distribution in the steel plate becomes even.In addition, even different manufacturing batch, also controlled temperature process equably.But, in the present invention,, the most important thing is beginning temperature (M than martensitic transformation in order to obtain bainite/ferrite mixed structure
SPoint) under the high specified temperature surface of steel plate carried out water-cooled after, reflux more than the processing of heat exchange repeats once to the major general, so cool off.Moreover, begin temperature (M if will reach martensitic transformation up to surface of steel plate from water-cooled (initial water-cooled)
SThe average cooling rate of surface of steel plate point) is set at below the critical speed of cooling that obtains 90% martensitic stucture, then inhibition strength deviation more.In addition, also can heat exchange reflux by regulating cooling water inflow (for example reducing the water yield).In addition, the heat exchange that also can after having carried out final water-cooled, reflux.In this case, water-cooled stops temperature sometimes also above M
SThe point.
Below, the reason that limits steel plate of the present invention (mother metal) composition is described.In addition, about chemical ingredients of the present invention, % represents quality %.
C is indispensable as the basic element that improves strength of parent.Therefore, need the C of interpolation more than 0.03%.If surpass the superfluous C of interpolation in 0.08% ground, then the weldability of steel or toughness reduce.Therefore, the upper limit with the addition of C is defined as 0.08%.
Si is necessary as the deoxidant element in when steel-making.For deoxidation, need in steel, add the Si more than 0.01%.But, add Si if surpass 0.50% ground, then the HAZ toughness of steel reduces.Therefore, the upper limit with the addition of Si is defined as 0.50%.
Mn is necessary element for the intensity of guaranteeing mother metal and toughness.But if the Mn amount surpasses 2.5%, then the HAZ toughness of mother metal significantly reduces.Be lower than at 1.5% o'clock in the Mn amount, it is difficult that the intensity of mother metal is guaranteed to become, and therefore the scope dictates with the Mn amount is 1.5~2.5%.
P is the element that the toughness to steel exerts an influence.If the P amount surpasses 0.01%, then not only the toughness of the toughness of mother metal but also HAZ also significantly reduces.Therefore, the upper limit with the P amount is defined as 0.01%.
0.0030% ground is superfluous to be added if S surpasses, and then generates thick sulfide.This thick sulfide reduces toughness, and therefore the upper limit with the S amount is defined as 0.0030%.
Nb has the element that improves the effect of intensity by formation carbide, nitride.But, when the Nb that adds below 0.0001%, do not have its effect.In addition, when interpolation surpasses 0.20% Nb, cause toughness to reduce.Therefore, the scope dictates with the Nb amount is 0.0001~0.20%.
Al adds as deoxidation material usually.In the present invention, add Al, then do not generate the oxide compound of Ti main body if surpass 0.03% ground.Therefore, the upper limit with the Al amount is defined as 0.03%.In addition, in order to reduce the oxygen amount in the molten steel, need to add the Al more than 0.0001%.Therefore, the undergage with the Al amount is decided to be 0.0001%.
Ti is as deoxidation material, the other element of bringing into play effect as nitride forming element in the miniaturization of crystal grain.But the significant toughness that the interpolation of a large amount of Ti brings carbide to form and causes reduces, and therefore the upper limit of Ti amount need be defined in 0.030%.But,, need to add the Ti more than 0.003% for the effect that obtains stipulating.Therefore, the scope dictates with the Ti amount is 0.003~0.030%.
B generally makes hardenability increase by being solid-solubilized in the steel, significantly suppress the element that ferrite generates.Therefore, the B gauge is decided to be is lower than 0.0003%.
N separates out TiN imperceptibly, is necessary for making the miniaturization of austenite particle diameter.In the N amount is 0.0010% o'clock, and miniaturization is insufficient, and therefore the undergage with the N amount is decided to be 0.0010%.In addition, if the N amount surpasses 0.0050%, then solid solution N amount increases, and makes the low-temperature flexibility deterioration of mother metal, and therefore the upper limit with the N amount is defined as 0.0050%.
0.0050% ground is superfluous to be added if O surpasses, and then generates thick oxide compound, and the toughness of mother metal is reduced.Therefore, the upper limit with the O amount is defined as 0.0050%.
Contain above element, remainder comprises that the steel of iron (Fe) and unavoidable impurities is the preferred essentially consist as steel plate of the present invention and steel pipe employing.
In addition, in the present invention, can as improving intensity and flexible element, can from Mo, Cu, Ni, Cr, V, Zr, Ta, select to add at least a kind of element as required.
Mo is when improving hardenability, forms carbide and nitride to improve the element of intensity.In order to obtain its effect, need to add the Mo more than 0.01%.But, the interpolation that surpasses a large amount of Mo of 1.0% make the intensity of mother metal be increased to required more than, toughness is significantly reduced.Therefore, the scope dictates with the Mo amount is 0.01~1.0%.
Cu is for to gain in strength under the flexible situation be effective elements not reducing.But being lower than at 0.01% o'clock in Cu amount does not have its effect, if the Cu amount surpasses 1.5%, and generation crackle easily when steel billet heat or during welding then.Therefore, the content with the Cu amount is defined as 0.01~1.5%.
Ni is an effective elements for improving toughness and intensity.In order to obtain its effect, need to add the Ni more than 0.01%.But, surpassing under the situation of adding Ni in 5.0% ground, weldability reduces.Therefore, the upper limit with the Ni amount is defined as 5.0%.
Cr is the element that improves the intensity of steel by precipitation strength.Therefore, need the Cr of interpolation more than 0.01%.But, if add Cr in large quantities, then, hardenability generates martensitic stucture because of increasing, toughness is reduced.Therefore, the upper limit with the Cr amount is defined as 1.5%.
V has by forming the element that carbide and nitride improve the effect of intensity.But, when adding the V below 0.01%, then do not have its effect.In addition, when interpolation surpasses 0.10% V, cause toughness to reduce.Therefore, the scope dictates with the V amount is 0.01~0.10%.
W is when improving hardenability, forms carbide and nitride to improve the element of intensity.In order to obtain its effect, need to add the W more than 0.01%.But, the interpolation that surpasses a large amount of W of 1.0% make the intensity of mother metal be increased to required more than, and toughness is significantly reduced.Therefore, the scope dictates with the W amount is 0.01~1.0%.
Zr and Ta are also same with Nb, are to have by forming the element that carbide and nitride improve the effect of intensity.But, when adding below 0.0001%, do not have its effect.In addition, when add surpassing 0.050% Zr or Ta, cause toughness to reduce.Therefore the scope dictates with the amount of Zr or Ta is 0.0001~0.050%.
In addition, in the present invention, as required, pinning effect or anti-lamellar tearing in order to improve oxide compound can add at least a kind of element among Mg, Ca, REM, Y, Hf, the Re.
Mg adds mainly as deoxidation material.But, add Mg if surpass 0.010% ground, then generate thick oxide compound easily, mother metal and HAZ toughness reduce.In addition, when the interpolation that is lower than 0.0001% Mg, can not fully expect generation as intracrystalline phase transformation and the necessary oxide compound of pinning particle.Therefore the interpolation scope dictates with Mg is 0.0001~0.010%.
Ca and REM, Y, Hf, Re suppress easily generation to the MnS of rolling direction elongation by generating sulfide, improve the characteristic of the thickness of slab direction of steel, particularly anti-lamellar tearing.All be lower than at 0.0001% o'clock at Ca and REM, Y, Hf, Re, can not obtain this effect.Therefore, the undergage with the amount of Ca and REM, Y, Hf, Re is decided to be 0.0001%.On the contrary, if Ca and REM, Y, Hf, Re surpass 0.0050%, then the number of the oxide compound of Ca and REM, Y, Hf, Re increases, and the ultramicrofine number that contains the Mg oxide compound reduces.Therefore, the upper limit with the amount of Ca and REM, Y, Hf, Re is defined as 0.0050%.
By the steel making working procedure melting after containing the steel of mentioned component, wait by continuous casting and to cast, thereby form steel billet (strand).This steel billet is implemented hot rolling (in that steel billet heating back is rolling), thereby form steel plate.At this moment, this steel billet is heated to A
C3The temperature (reheat temperature) that point is above makes the depressing than being more than 2 of recrystallization temperature district thereby be rolled, the depressing than being more than 3 of non-recrystallization humidity province.The average original austenite particle diameter of the steel plate that consequently, obtains is below the 20 μ m.
The reheat temperature of above-mentioned steel billet (strand) is preferably more than 950 ℃.In addition, if the reheat temperature is too high, then therefore thickization of γ crystal grain when heating preferably be defined as the reheat temperature below 1250 ℃.
About the ratio of depressing in recrystallization temperature district, if depress, then can not fully produce recrystallize than being lower than 2, therefore preferably will depress than being defined as more than 2.
If with depressing than being defined as more than 3 of non-recrystallization humidity province, then the average original austenite particle diameter of steel plate can reach below the 20 μ m.Therefore, preferred depressing with the non-recrystallization humidity province than being defined as more than 3.More preferably, the non-recrystallization humidity province depresses than being more than 4.In such cases, the average original austenite particle diameter that can make steel plate is below 10 μ m.
Temperature (water-cooled begins temperature) about the beginning water-cooled preferably begins steel plate is cooled off since the water-cooled temperature below 800 ℃.That is to say, from A
E3The cooling of the following beginning of some steel plate.In such cases, because by producing the yield ratio that ferrite transformation reduces steel plate, so the energy of deformation of steel plate becomes good.
About method of cooling, the most important thing is to reach martensitic transformation and begin temperature, thereby surface of steel plate is cooled off by water-cooled and backflow heat exchange being repeated to surface of steel plate.By this method of cooling, can suppress the strength variance of above-mentioned steel plate.Moreover, reach martensitic transformation from water-cooled (initial water-cooled) up to surface of steel plate and begin temperature (M if make

In addition, about the temperature of surface of steel plate, measure the central part of the width of steel plate.
Backflow heat exchange among the present invention is described.Backflow heat exchange among the present invention is when cooling metal sheets, by a water-cooled surface of steel plate is being cooled to compare M
SAfter putting high specified temperature, water-cooled is stopped certain hour, thereby after water-cooled, improve the operation of the temperature of surface of steel plate immediately.That is to say, compare M until reaching carrying out water-cooled
SAfter putting high specified temperature, the heat exchange that repeats more than at least 1 time to reflux is handled, thus the cooling metal sheets surface.Then, carry out last water-cooled (final water-cooled), surface of steel plate is cooled to M
SThe temperature that point is following.Heat exchange once more also can reflux after this final water-cooled.When carrying out this backflow heat exchange, final cooling temperature is the temperature after the last backflow heat exchange.In addition, in order to prevent the deviation of the intensity in the steel plate, the backflow heat exchange number of times of the steel plate before the final water-cooled is preferably more than 2 times.In addition, in order to ensure productivity, the speed of water-cooled and final water-cooled is preferably V
C90More than.In the refrigerating unit that the present invention adopts, can reach the place (being called the zone) that nozzle that identical mode controls concentrates with water yield density has several.In the present invention, for example, these zones are divided into water-cooled zone of carrying out water-cooled and the backflow heat exchange zone of not carrying out water-cooled.That is to say that carrying out water-cooled with first area (water-cooled zone), when carrying out water-cooled, about the surface temperature of steel plate, the temperature of the outlet of second area is higher than the temperature of the outlet of first area without second area (backflow heat exchange zone).Moreover if carry out water-cooled with the 3rd zone (water-cooled zone), then the surface temperature of steel plate descends.Like this, by repeating the surface temperature that water-cooled zone and backflow heat exchange zone reduce steel plate gradually.The zone (backflow heat exchange zone) of not carrying out water-cooled can be by considering the arbitrary decisions such as cooling situation of steel plate.Finally, surface of steel plate is cooled to M in final water-cooled zone
SThe temperature that point is following.
Followingly carry out specific description under above-mentioned cooling conditions, carrying out the refrigerative reason with reference to Fig. 2.Fig. 2 is the example of relation of the transformation curve of expression cooling figure of surface of steel plate and steel.The dotted line of Fig. 2 (i) expression is with speed of cooling V
C90Cooling figure when steel plate is cooled off.In this cooling figure, steel plate about 90% is a martensitic stucture.As the dotted line of Fig. 2 (ii) shown in, at the average cooling rate of surface of steel plate greater than speed of cooling V
C90Situation under, surface of steel plate is roughly martensitic stucture.Therefore, even when the backflow heat exchange of carrying out surface of steel plate, the toughness of surface of steel plate also significantly reduces, and often produces surface imperfection such as surface crack when making steel pipe on steel plate.On the other hand, shown in the solid line of Fig. 2 (iii) reaches (iv), at the average cooling rate of surface of steel plate less than speed of cooling V
C90Situation under, steel plate is roughly bainite of the present invention/ferrite mixed structure.In addition, by heat exchange that surface of steel plate is refluxed, can make the steel plate that the steel plate interior tissue is even, strength variance is little.
Stop temperature about cooling,, then generate the defective that is considered to result from hydrogen at the thickness of slab central part of steel plate if stopping last water-cooled (final water-cooled) below 200 ℃.Therefore, the undergage that preferably cooling is stopped temperature being decided to be 200 ℃.
Then, to adopting the superstrength line-pipes steel plate of making by above-mentioned manufacture method, the method for making line pipe by UO technology (UO tubing) describes.After having made thickness of slab and being the steel plate of 12~25mm, be configured as tubulose by UO tubing (C extruding, U extruding, O extruding).Then, will be configured as the end butt joint of piped steel plate respectively, position weldering.In this tack welding, adopt MAG welding or MIG welding.Behind tack welding, carry out submerged arc welding from the inside and outside docking section that is configured as the piped steel plate of facing.In this submerged arc welding, adopt welding wire and burn till type or fusion solder flux.At last, carry out expander, thereby produce steel pipe.
In the manufacture method of superstrength line-pipes steel pipe of the present invention, preferably after the submerged arc welding of having carried out above-mentioned interior outside, and before carrying out expander, weld part (seam welding portion) is implemented thermal treatment.In addition, as the heat-treat condition of this steel pipe, preferably under 200 ℃~500 ℃ temperature, weld part is implemented thermal treatment.By this thermal treatment, can lower result from weld part (welding metal) to the deleterious MA of toughness (austenite and martensitic mixed structure).If under 200 ℃~500 ℃ temperature weld part is heated, then the thick MA that generates along original austenite crystal prevention resolves into fine cementite.But, when being lower than 200 ℃, weld part being implemented under the heat treated situation, thick MA can not resolve into cementite.Therefore, the following of the thermal treatment temp of weld part is limited to 200 ℃.In addition, if surpass 500 ℃ of ground weld part is heat-treated, then the toughness deterioration of weld part.Therefore, the thermal treatment temp of weld part on be limited to 500 ℃.

SAfter putting high specified temperature, the processing of the heat exchange that will reflux repeats more than 1 time at least, so cools off.Then, stop cooling (final water-cooled) 300~470 ℃ temperature.In addition, in the table 1, as a reference, also show carbon equivalent C

For yield strength and tensile strength to each steel plate of making are estimated, take total thickness test film from each steel plate according to the API5L standard, carry out tension test at normal temperatures.About taking direction, take these total thickness test films in the length direction of the total thickness test film mode consistent with the width of steel plate.In addition, the position of taking of total thickness test film is in the length direction of the steel plate position from steel plate top ends and steel plate terminal part 1m.Take 2 total thickness test films in both sides from the wide central part of the plate of these locational steel plates.
Then, by the UO tubing with this steel formability after, by carbon dioxide-shielded welding the docking section of steel plate is positioned weldering.Then, adopt welding wire and melt flux, utilize the seam weldering of union-melt weld from the interior outside of the docking section of steel plate, thereby form steel pipe.The average line energy of seam weldering is 2.0~5.0kJ/mm.In addition, to the part steel pipe, butt seam welding portion implements 250~450 ℃ thermal treatment.Creating conditions of steel plate and steel pipe sees Table 2.
Estimate for yield strength and tensile strength, take the API test film, carry out tension test from each steel pipe to each steel pipe of making.About taking direction, take these API test films in the length direction of the API test film mode consistent with the tube axial direction of steel pipe.In addition, about taking the position, with these API test films with the vertical cut surface of tubular axis in, be the center with position from 1/4 week of seam weldering portion of each steel pipe, respectively take 2 in its both sides.In addition, as a reference,,,, carry out tension test from respectively taking 2 API test films with above-mentioned same position under 210 ℃ these steel pipes being heat-treated (air cooling after keeping 5 minutes) in order to estimate the energy of deformation behind the strain aging.Tension test is carried out according to API standard 2000.In addition, in order to estimate the toughness of steel pipe, summer coomb's test Coomb (Charpy test) when having implemented-30 ℃ and DWT test.Summer coomb's test Coomb and DWT test are also carried out according to API standard 2000.About summer coomb's test Coomb sheet and DWT test film, in the length direction of the test film mode consistent with the circumferential direction of steel pipe, with the vertical cut surface of tubular axis in, take with position from 1/2 week of seam weldering portion of steel pipe.About the DWT test film, respectively take 2 from each steel pipe, as summer coomb's test Coomb sheet, respectively take 3 from the wall thickness central part of each steel pipe.
Moreover, the HAZ toughness of each steel pipe of making is estimated.About being used to estimate HAZ flexible test film, take near the welded heat affecting zone (HAZ) the seam weldering portion of steel pipe, form breach at FL+1mm (is the position of 1mm apart from HAZ portion with the border of stitching weldering portion in HAZ portion side).As these test films, respectively take 3 from each steel pipe.Summer coomb's test Coomb to these test films during all by-30 ℃ is estimated.
These tests the results are shown in Table 3.In addition, tensile strength not only is shown in the table 3 as a reference, but also yield strength and yield ratio are shown.
Steel 1~22 expression embodiments of the invention.Shown by table 3: these steel plates and steel pipe have the above tensile strength of X80, and the strength variance in steel plate and the steel pipe also is suppressed in below the 60MPa.In addition, the Xia Shi of steel pipe can be for more than the 200J, and DWTT plastic fracture rate is more than 85%, and the Xia Shi of welded heat affecting zone absorbs and can (HAZ toughness) surpass 50J.Like this, the steel pipe in the embodiments of the invention has high toughness.Steel 23~35 expressions are less than the comparative example of creating conditions of unabridged version invention.That is to say that in steel 23, the C amount in the steel is less than scope of the present invention, so tensile strength and insufficient.In steel 24~29, at least a kind of element in basal component and the selection element is exceeded scope of the invention ground to be added in the steel, so toughness of the mother metal of steel pipe (Xia Shi energy) or HAZ toughness and insufficient.On the other hand, in steel 30~35, owing to do not reflux heat exchange surface of steel plate is not cooled off, so the deviation of the intensity of steel plate and steel pipe is greatly to more than the 100MPa.In addition, under 210 ℃, carried out the yield strength of the steel pipe after the thermal treatment and compared, increased more than the 200MPa with the yield strength of steel plate.That is to say, owing to do not reflux heat exchange surface of steel plate is not cooled off, thereby the energy of deformation behind the strain aging is reduced greatly.
