Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Desoxidieren, Mikrolegieren oder Impfen von Metallschmelzen nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a method for deoxidizing, microalloying or inoculating metal melts according to the preamble of claim 1.
Beim Warmhalten und auch beim direkten Vergiessen der Legierungen mit Hilfe einer Giesspfanne, besonders bei Legierungen, welche zu Oxidbildung neigen, wie Legierungen mit erhöhtem Cr-Gehalt, ist es manchmal schwierig, die Oxidbildung während des Giessens zu verhindern.When keeping the alloy warm and also pouring it directly using a ladle, especially alloys that tend to form oxides, such as alloys with an increased Cr content, it is sometimes difficult to prevent oxide formation during casting.
Besonders während des Warmhaltens der Schmelze bei der Giesstemperatur werden die desoxidierend wirkenden Elemente wie Al, Si, Mn u.ä. wegen der guten Affinität zum Sauerstoff als erste oxidiert und in die Schlacke überführt, oder sie verbleiben in der Schmelze als Einschlüsse. Zum Beispiel sinkt der Al-Gehalt' in einer Eisenschmelze innerhalb von 20 Stunden von 0.063 % auf 0.003 %. Die Senkung der Al-Aktivität in der Schmelze kann zur Bildung von Oxyden wie z.B. Cr-Oxiden während des Vergiessens führen und die Gussqualität ungünstig beeinflussen.Especially when the melt is kept warm at the casting temperature, the deoxidizing elements such as Al, Si, Mn and the like are because of the good affinity for oxygen, they are the first to be oxidized and transferred to the slag, or they remain in the melt as inclusions. For example, the Al content 'in an iron melt drops from 0.063% to 0.003% within 20 hours. Lowering the Al activity in the melt can lead to the formation of oxides such as e.g. Lead Cr oxides during casting and adversely affect the casting quality.
Periodische Desoxidation im Warmhalteofen führt wegen der Schlackenanwesenheit nicht zum Erfolg.Periodic deoxidation in the holding furnace does not lead to success due to the presence of slag.
Dieser Nachteil wurde besonders beim direkten Vergiessen des chromlegierten Weissgusseisens in der Kokille beobachtet. Durch die Strömung im Kokillenhohlraum werden die Oxide zur Wand gedrückt und mit dem erstarrten Metall überdeckt. Dies ergibt Narben, welche dann die Oberflächengüte des Abgusses beeinträchtigen.This disadvantage was particularly observed when the chrome-alloy white cast iron was poured directly into the mold. Due to the flow in the mold cavity, the oxides are pressed against the wall and covered with the solidified metal. This results in scars, which then impair the surface quality of the cast.
Durch Zugabe einer kontrollierten Menge an Desoxidationsmittel in die Giessform können die bestehenden Oxide gelöst oder in eine unschädliche Form überführt werden.By adding a controlled amount of deoxidizing agent to the casting mold, the existing oxides can be dissolved or converted into a harmless form.
Die Zugabe der Mittel in Form von Pulver oder stückig hat jedoch wegen der Strömung in der Kokille und hoher Erstarrungsgeschwindigkeiten nicht immer zum Erfolg geführt.However, the addition of the agents in the form of powder or lumps has not always been successful because of the flow in the mold and high solidification rates.
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Verfahren anzugeben, bei dem durch dosierte Zugabe von Desoxidationsmitteln oder anderen Zusätzen eine gleichmässige Verteilung und Abscheidung in der Schmelze herbeizuführen, so dass die oben beschriebenen ungünstigen Ergebnisse verhindert werden können.It is an object of the invention to provide a method in which a uniform distribution and separation in the melt can be brought about by metered addition of deoxidizing agents or other additives, so that the unfavorable results described above can be prevented.
Erfindungsgemäss wird dies mit einem Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art gewährleistet, welches zusätzlich die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 angeführten Merkmale aufweist.According to the invention, this is ensured by a method of the type mentioned at the outset, which additionally has the features stated in the characterizing part of claim 1.
Die Durchführung des Verfahrens erfolgt mittels einer Einrichtung, wie sie in den Unteransprüchen 5 bis 8 gekennzeichnet wird.The method is carried out by means of a device as characterized in subclaims 5 to 8.
In der CH-PS 581 513 und in der US-PS 4 040 596 werden ein Spritzschutzgitter bzw. ein Schutzblech beschrieben, welche dazu dienen, die Kokille beim Giessen vor den Dauerwirkungen des aus einer bestimmten Höhe und mit erheblicher kinetischer Energie auf den Kokillenboden auftreffenden Giessstrahls zu schützen bzw. das Spritzen zu verhindern. Diese Schutzeinrichtungen sind aus einem Material, welches sich langsam auflöst und voll in die Schmelze integriert wird. Hierbei handelt es sich um ein Eisenblech oder -gitter mit ensprechender Formgebung.In CH-PS 581 513 and in US-PS 4 040 596 a splash guard or a mudguard are described, which serve to prevent the mold from being cast on the mold base before the long-term effects of the impact from a certain height and with considerable kinetic energy To protect the pouring jet or to prevent spraying. These protective devices are made of a material that slowly dissolves and is fully integrated into the melt. This is an iron sheet or grid with a corresponding shape.
Das Wesen der Erfindung liegt nun darin, diese Schutzeinrichtungen mit dem gewünschten Zusatzstoff zu umgeben, zu verbinden oder sie direkt aus ihm herzustellen.The essence of the invention is now to surround these protective devices with the desired additive, to connect them or to produce them directly from it.
Hierdurch wird gewährleistet, dass der Zusatzstoff, bei dem es sich um ein Desoxidationsmittel wie Al, Si, M, AlSi, Fe, Ti, FeSi, FeMn oder dergleichen, einen Legierungsbestandteil zum Mikrolegieren oder einen Impfzusatz handeln kann zu einem Zeitpunkt der Legierung zugesetzt wird, zu dem er die volle Wirkung ausüben kann, ohne dass diese Wirkung durch langes Warten der Schmelze, wie es teilweise notwendig ist, wenn eine grosse Menge der Schmelze behandelt und dann intermittierend vergossen wird, wieder abklingen kann.This ensures that the additive, which is a deoxidizing agent such as Al, Si, M, AlSi, Fe, Ti, FeSi, FeMn or the like, can be an alloy component for microalloying or a vaccine additive can be added at a time of the alloy , to which it can exert its full effect, without this effect having subsided by long waiting for the melt, as is sometimes necessary when a large amount of the melt is treated and then poured intermittently.
Das Schutzelement weist gerade soviel des Zusatzstoffes auf, wie für die jeweilige Reaktion nötig ist, dadurch kann auch Material gespart werden, da im Vergleich dazu beim Behandeln der Schmelze in der Pfanne meist ein Ueberbehandeln nötig ist, um die Wirkung der Behandlung während des gesamten intermittierenden Giessvorgangs aufrecht zu erhalten.The protective element has just as much of the additive as is necessary for the respective reaction, which also saves material, since, in comparison, when treating the melt in the pan, it is usually necessary to overtreat to ensure the effect of the treatment during the entire intermittent period To maintain the casting process.
Wenn das Schutzelement aus dem entsprechenden Zusatzstoff direkt hergestellt ist, so kann jede denkbare Herstellungsart dafür Verwendung finden, beim Beschichten oder Ueberziehen eines Eisengrundkörpers mit dem Zusatzstoff ist ein Eintauchen des Grundkörpers in eine Schmelze des Zusatzstoffes, Flamm-oder Plasmaspritzen oder ähnliches denkbar.If the protective element is produced directly from the corresponding additive, any conceivable type of manufacture can be used for this purpose, when coating or coating an iron base body with the additive, immersing the base body in a melt of the additive, flame or plasma spraying or the like is conceivable.
Eine ähnliche Wirkung ist auch in Sandformen denkbar, wobei der Eingiessschutz als socher entfällt, hingegen die gleichmässige Verteilung des Desoxydations- oder Mikrolegierungselementes bleibt.A similar effect is also conceivable in sand molds, the pouring protection being omitted as a socher, while the even distribution of the deoxidation or microalloying element remains.
