Part, the height of its service life and reliability determines the quality of host performance to a certain extent.With China's science
The rapid development of technology, in many high-end fields, such as Aeronautics and Astronautics, traffic, the energy (wind-powered electricity generation, solar energy, nuclear power), ocean work
Journey proposes many new requirements to bearing used, and its use range also constantly expands, therefore, new to used bearing material
Performance and quality on it is also proposed more requirements, as Aero-engine Bearing needs to work under the high temperature conditions, therefore need
High-temperature bearing is wanted to manufacture;Atomic energy industry is needed using anticorrosive, resistance to irradiation and the particular/special requirement such as nonmagnetic, it is therefore desirable to is adopted
Manufactured with stainless bearing or nonmagnetic corrosion-resistant stainless bearing steel material;Various war products are also inseparable with bearing, such as aircraft, army
The sophisticated weapons such as warship, guided missile, radar, tank artillery be unable to do without bearing, and these bearings are required for using a variety of axles
Corbel material manufactures, it may be said that the application of field of bearings is more and more extensive, also more and more important, the special bearing having had at present
The species and performance of steel far can not meet its demand, therefore, it is necessary to which great dynamicses research and develop new high life bearing steel to meet
The demand of bearing industry development and scientific and technological progress and the demand for crossing national defense industry, to ensureing China's science and technology and national defense industry
Development play extremely important effect.
Minimum 500,000 kilometers with bearing service life of Foreign Automobile gear-box, domestic about 100,000 kilometers of the similar bearing life-span,
And reliability stability is poor.State's outer bearing high speed performance index D n values can reach 3.3x106, and China's like product is not more than
Cross 2.5x106;The current state's inner bearing of bearing used for high-speed railway all by import, Europe, day each 50%, constrains China's high ferro skill
The further development of art.Therefore, the crucial bearing of China's production and the bearing of Japanese, American-European Guo Deng advanced countries production are using
There is larger gap in life-span, reliability, Dn values and bearing capacity etc., have become and restrict the development of China's equipment manufacture
Bottleneck.
Either China's national standard, or the standard of the advanced country such as Japan, America and Europe, using containing C1.0%, Cr1.5% as
The high-carbon-chromium bearing steel of representative, it is born so far from it, chemical element has almost no change, but with the swift and violent hair of science and technology
Exhibition, very harsh requirement is proposed to bearing, while improving velocity of rotation, improving operating temperature, is also required higher
Reliability and life-span;The continuous increase of bearing size, it is desirable to higher quenching degree;The appearance of office automated machine, it is desirable to right
The suppression of small size bearing noise.Due to the requirement more and more higher to bearing, bearing material must possess high cleanliness, high reliability
And high fatigue life.

2nd, YX new materials composition design
(1) corrosion-resistant, wear-resisting, antifatigue element determines
Corrosion-resistant, wear-resisting, the antifatigue element of YX new materials determines as shown in table 4.
The determination of the new material each element of table 4
Design of Chemical Composition explanation:
High life bearing steel material composition design key is to ensure to obtain high elastic limit, tensile strength and contact tired
Labor intensity, high hardenability and necessary quenching degree, to ensure high-wearing feature, certain impact flexibility;Good dimensionally stable
Property or structure stability;Chemical attack can be resisted;Fatigue of materials peeling, stuck, lasso fracture, abrasion, corrosion can effectively be reduced
Phenomena such as.
1) control interval of carbon component
Carbon be influence steel performance important element, be ensure bearing steel can possess enough quenching degree, hardness number and
One of important element of wearability.Carbon invigoration effect is very high, phosphorus content increase in steel, yield point and tensile strength rise, but
Toughness is significantly reduced, in order to improve the safety and reliability that bearing steel uses, while carbon is improved, is come by alloying
Intensity is improved, i.e., by existing GCr15 0.93~1.05%, is designed to 0.95~1.05%, Composition Control 0.98~1.01%,
Controlled by lower limit, reduce strand carbon segregation, improve the uniformity of carbide.
2) Mn, Cr, Ni, Mo, Al element specification
Chromium is carbide former, and main function is the quenching degree and decay resistance for improving steel, and can be improved
Intensity, hardness, wearability, elastic limit and yield limit.The distribution of steel grade carbide and its size of particle can be significantly changed,
Make the cementite carbide size (FeCr) containing chromium3C annealing aggregation tendentiousness diminish, be bearing steel carbide become it is tiny,
It is evenly distributed and expands the temperature range of spheroidizing.Chromium can also reduce the fast to overheat tendency and skin decarburization of steel
Degree.Cr is controlled, by increasing capacitance it is possible to increase the quenching degree and wearability of steel, carry by 1.40~1.60% designs by 1.50~1.55%
High-dimensional stability or structure stability, the resistance to corrosion and antioxidation of steel can be improved;And too high chromium can be prevented
Content easily forms bulk carbide.
Manganese significantly improves the quenching degree of steel, and part manganese, which is dissolved in ferrite, improves ferritic hardness and intensity, and energy
Enough fixed steel grade S form simultaneously forms the small MnS sulfides of the performance hazards to steel, can reduce or suppress FeS life
Into.Mn can improve the intensity of steel, weaken and eliminate the harmful effect of sulphur, improve and melt invigoration effect admittedly, and can improve quenching for steel
Permeability, yield strength and tensile strength, this steel grade are designed to be divided into 0.25~0.45% as needed, by middle upper limit control composition
0.35~0.40%, to ensure steel grade retained austenite quantity, the superheated susceptivity of stabilized steel, crack tendence and size are steady
It is qualitative.But these elements of Cr and Mn can make material increase temper brittleness sensitiveness, i.e. Transition of Brittleness temperature at 250~450 DEG C in steel
While degree rises, the impact value and Fracture Toughness of Ductile rupture decline, and in order to reduce the adverse effect of manganese, this just needs to increase
Add Mo elements, its content range is 0.02~0.05%, improves quenching degree, anti-temper resistance, refines annealed structure, and reduction is quenched
Fire deformation, fatigue strength is improved, improve mechanical property.
Ni is to improve the maximally effective alloying element of steel toughness, the mechanism of its toughening is according to 0.05~0.09% design
Material matrix is set to be easy to cross-slip at low temperature in itself, no matter to which kind of tissue, toughness can be improved by adding Ni.Cu+ simultaneously
Mo+Cu elements design control interval, can obtain comprehensive corrosion resisting property more more preferable than Cu+Ni, so Cu presses 0.05~0.08%
Design, the corrosion-resistant stability enhancing of steel.
Al content is designed to that, no more than 0.050%, steel can be avoided because grain size Coarsening Temperature is low, the quality of open grain structure
Problem, make the infusible compound AlN that enough small and dispersed distributions are formed in steel, and tiny, disperse carbon, nitride V (C, N)
Austenite Grain Growth is prevented together, and grain size number can bring up to >=8.5 grades, more brilliant than GCr15 under GB/T18254-2002
Granularity improves 0.5 rank.
The composition design can be such that the comprehensive mechanical performance of new material is significantly improved than former GCr15 steel, so as to meet bearing steel
In high life, the needs of high reliability.
