Definitions
- This invention relates to high chromium-nickel materials and a process for producing the same. Moreover, this invention relates to high chromium-nickel wires produced from the above-described high chromium-nickel materials and a process for producing the same.
- a high chromium-nickel material is widely used as various targets, abrasion resistant protectors, materials for switching, various electrodes, and welding spray materials.
- melt and molding method includes a high frequency induction heating method, an arc melting method, etc.
- Arc melting is a process for producing an ingot which generally comprises arc melting metals in an inert gas using a water-cooled mold.
- An ingot obtained by arc melting has a metallurgical structure showing development of dendrites to large grains. Since ferrochromium or low purity chromium powder is used as a chromium raw material, the resulting ingot contains a phase which causes reduction in workability in addition to a hard phase and a soft phase. Such an ingot is so brittle and inferior in workability that it requires care in handling and encounters difficulty in forging or rolling. Further, voids in the ingot, such as molding defects, deteriorate properties of final products. Furthermore, cooling after melting tends to induce cracks, making it difficult to obtain a large-sized ingot.
- chromium-nickel materials particularly high chromium-nickel materials, produced by conventional processes are so brittle due to internal defects that they are apt to be broken on cutting or other handling. Further, it was impossible for these materials to be molded by general hot working operations.
- a wire has been frequently obtained by hot swaging, forging or rolling using an ingot obtained by a hot press method or a hot isotropic hydrostatic press (hereinafter abbreviated as HIP) method.
- HIP hot isotropic hydrostatic press
- HIP, etc. cause excessive solid phase diffusion between chromium powder and nickel powder to induce grain growth, failing to form a homogeneous fine structure.
- the ingot is likely brittle because of an increased chromium content in soft phases thereof and encounters with difficulty in wire working.
- a mixture of chromium powder and nickel powder in a capsule is subjected to wire drawing.
- chromium-nickel materials obtained by conventional processes particularly high chromium-nickel materials, contain coarse grains, phases causing reduction in workability, and internal defects and are, therefore, very brittle and have inferior workability.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a high chromium-nickel material having a dense structure free from internal defects, exhibits excellent workability, and undergoes no cracking during later handling.
- the inventors have conducted extensive studies and, as a result, found that the object of the present invention is accomplished by a high chromium-nickel material satisfying certain conditions and then completed the present invention.
- a first embodiment of the present invention relates to a high chromium-nickel material containing from 50 to 90% by weight of chromium and not more than 0.5% by weight of impurities, with the remainder substantially comprising nickel, whose metallurgical structure consists of two phases of a hard phase and a soft phase and whose crystal grains have a diameter of not more than 50 ⁇ m.
- a second embodiment of the present invention relates to a process for producing a high chromium-nickel material containing from 50 to 90% by weight of chromium and not more than 0.5% by weight of impurities, with the remainder substantially comprising nickel, whose metallurgical structure consisting of two phases of a hard phase and a soft phase and whose crystal grains having a diameter of not more than 50 ⁇ m, which comprises preparing an ingot having a packing density of 7 g/cm3 or more by using chromium powder having a purity of 99% or higher and nickel carbonyl powder, heating the ingot in vacuo or in an inert gas, and subjecting the heat treated ingot to hot working.
- a third embodiment of the present invention relates to a high chromium-nickel wire containing from 50 to 90% by weight of chromium and not more than 0.5% by weight of impurities, with the remainder substantially comprising nickel, whose metallurgical structure consisting of two phases of a hard phase and a soft phase and whose grains having a diameter of not more than 50 ⁇ m.
- a fourth embodiment of the present invention relates to a process for producing a high chromium-nickel wire containing from 50 to 90% by weight of chromium and not more than 0.5% by weight of impurities, with the remainder substantially comprising nickel, whose metallurgical structure consisting of two phases of a hard phase and a soft phase and whose grains having a diameter of not more than 50 ⁇ m, which comprises preparing an ingot having a packing density of 7 g/cm3 or more by using chromium powder having a purity of 99% or higher and nickel carbonyl powder, heating the ingot in vacuo or in an inert gas, filling the heat treated ingot in a capsule, and subjecting the ingot-containing capsule to hot wire drawing at a temperature of from 300 to 800°C at a degree of hot wire drawing of not more than 30% per pass.
- a fifth embodiment of the present invention relates to a process for producing a high chromium-nickel wire for coating containing from 50 to 90% by weight of chromium and not more than 0.5% by weight of impurities, with the remainder substantially comprising nickel, which comprises preparing an ingot having a packing density of 7 g/cm3 or more by using chromium powder having a purity of 99% or higher and nickel carbonyl powder, heating the ingot to a temperature of 1300°C or lower in vacuo or in an inert gas, filling the heat treated ingot in a cylindrical metal capsule, subjecting the ingot-containing capsule to hot wire drawing at a temperature of from 300 to 800°C at a degree of hot wire drawing of not more than 10% per pass, removing the capsule, and rolling the resulting wire to further reduce the diameter by means of a tandem grooved roll mill.
- Figure 1 is a graph showing tensile values (maximum tensile breaking deformation and maximum tensile elongation) of high chromium-nickel materials according to the present invention at varying temperatures.
- Figures 2(a) and (b) are scanning electron micrographs (1000X magnification) showing microstructures of the materials obtained in Comparative Example 2 and Example 1, respectively.
- Figures 3(a) and (b) are scanning electron micrographs showing microstructures of the wires obtained in Comparative Example 18 and Example 7, respectively.
- Raw materials which can be used in the present invention include a mixed powder of metallic chromium and nickel carbonyl and a high chromium-nickel alloy powder.
- Metallic chromium powder to be used should have a purity of 99% or higher. If chromium having a purity of less than 99% is used, the content of impurities in the resulting material would exceed 0.5% by weight to form a segregated phase mainly comprising the impurities in addition to a hard phase and a soft phase.
- nickel sources other than nickel carbonyl or chromium-nickel alloys hereinafter described, such as metallic nickel powder, are used, since the degree of size reduction of the raw material is limited, sintering reaction becomes insufficient only to provide a material with defects or a material having reduced bond strength between the two phases.
- High chromium-nickel alloy powder which is used as a raw material has a structure comprising a soft phase and a finely dispersed lamellar hard phase. If the distance between lamellar hard phases is 10 ⁇ m or more, the ingot filled in a capsule has so poor workability that sufficient ductility cannot be obtained at the time of hot working to cause cracks during working of the resulting material. In order to avoid this, workability of the material can be improved by using an alloy powder having a distance of not more than 10 ⁇ m between the lamellar hard phases. Inert gas atomizing is the best method for obtaining such an alloy powder having a so controlled structure. Further, it is preferable to use raw material powders having a particle size of not more than 50 ⁇ m.
- the resulting material suffers from troubles such as cracking on hot working due to insufficient workability. It is more preferable to use raw material powders having a particle size of not more than 20 ⁇ m. A material obtained from such a raw material exhibits improved uniformity of dispersion of hard phases, which leads to improved workability during hot working and improved abrasion resistance.
- the raw material powders are thoroughly mixed by stirring, if desired, together with a binder, e.g., an alcohol, diethyl ether, and ethylene glycol, and molded in a cold isotropic hydrostatic press, etc. to prepare an ingot having a density of 7 g/cm3.
- a binder e.g., an alcohol, diethyl ether, and ethylene glycol
- the resulting ingot is then heat treated in vacuo or in an inert gas. If the density of the ingot is less than 7 g/cm3, a gap is apt to be formed between a capsule wall and the ingot during the subsequent hot working to produce a difference in draft degree between the capsule and the ingot, causing cracks from the surface. If the above-described heat treatment is omitted, the ingot would have internal defects, or diffusion between the two phases becomes partially insufficient, leading to breaks during hot working, for example, hot swaging.
- capsules to be used are not limited in material, it is recommended to choose a capsule material which has a coefficient of thermal expansion close to that of the ingot material and withstands the subsequent hot working.
- a metallic material is used as a capsule material
- stainless steel and mild steel are generally employed. If there is a gap between the capsule wall and the ingot, the capsule and the ingot would not have equality in work elongation or workability on pressure application from the outside by swaging, forging, and the like. As a result, the capsule is broken or the bonding strength between the hard phase and the soft phase necessary for ingot molding is reduced, which finally results in cracks or internal defects. It is desirable that the capsule after being filled with the ingot is sealed in vacuo or in an inert gas to thereby prevent surface oxidation of the chromium-nickel ingot and to improve workability.
- the ingot-containing capsule is then subjected to hot working to obtain a desired size.
- Hot working is usually carried out by hot swaging, hot forging, or hot rolling.
- the working temperature is from 300 to 800°C, and preferably around 600°C.
- the ingot is likely broken at a working temperature of less than 300°C. If the working temperature exceeds 800°C, the capsule component is heat diffused into the ingot, resulting in production of a material having an increased content of impurities and suffering from cracks due to a difference in coefficient of thermal expansion between the hard phase and the soft phase. It is apparent from Fig. 1 that satisfactory workability is manifested in the above-specified working temperature range of from 300 to 800°C. In Fig.
- curves 1 to 5 each shows temperature dependency of maximum tensile breaking deformation (the upper graph) and maximum tensile elongation (the lower graph) of high chromium-nickel materials having a chromium content of 50, 60, 70, 80, or 90% by weight, respectively, a content of impurities of not more than 0.5% by weight, with the remainder substantially comprising nickel. It can be seen from Fig. 1 that the materials exhibit the highest deformation and the highest elongation, i.e., greatest plastic workability, in the temperature range of from 300 to 800°C.
- the thus produced high chromium-nickel material can be further worked into plates, tubes, wires, and other complicated shapes by generally known working techniques, such as mold casting, hot rolling, perforation, extrusion, wire drawing, deep drawing, roll forming, swaging, and the like.
- a process for producing wires by using the high chromium-nickel material of the present invention is described below.
- the heat treated ingot is subjected to hot wire drawing as the above-described hot working.
- Hot wire drawing is conducted at least once and usually through several passes to obtain a desired diameter. What is important here is to conduct hot wire drawing at a degree of hot wire drawing of not more than 30% per pass. It is generally recognized that easily workable iron-based alloys, etc. can be drawn at a degree of hot wire drawing of from 5 to 30% per pass, while sparingly workable materials or high-melting materials should be drawn at a degree of hot wire drawing of from 1 to 10% per pass. However, sparingly workable materials like the materials of the present invention can be effectively drawn similarly to easily workable materials such as iron-based alloys as long as the above-described specific conditions are satisfied. In the present invention, if a degree of hot wire drawing exceeds 30% for each pass, the resulting wires suffer from cracks.
- wire drawing is carried out through two stages. That is, as a first step of the above-described hot working, the ingot is subjected to hot wire drawing. In this first step, hot wire drawing is performed at least once and usually through several passes. It is essential that each hot wire drawing operation should be conducted at a degree of hot wire drawing of not more than 10%. It is generally recognized that workable iron-based alloys, etc. may be drawn at a degree of hot wire drawing of from 5 to 20% per pass, while sparingly workable materials or materials having a high melting point should be drawn at a degree of hot wire drawing of up to 5% per pass.
- the material of the present invention which is included in sparingly workable materials can be effectively drawn similarly to easily workable materials such as iron-based alloys as long as the above-described specific conditions are satisfied. If each drawing operation for obtaining a desired wire diameter is conducted at a degree of hot wire drawing exceeding 10%, the resulting wire tends to have cracks.
- the resulting wire is then subjected to a second wire drawing step in which the wire diameter is further reduced by means of an economical excellent tandem grooved roll mill.
- the second wire drawing is carried out at a temperature of not higher than 500°C, and usually from 200 to 500°C from the viewpoint of workability and at a degree of hot wire drawing of not more than 10% per pass from the same reason as described above. Further, in order to maintain a prescribed temperature, the drawing is carried out at a feed rate of 10 m/min or more.
- the above-described process for producing wires for coating is characterized in that the first wire drawing step is followed by the second wire drawing step whereby slight surface micro cracks, defects, etc., if any produced during the first step, can be modified.
- the thus obtained wire for coating usually has a diameter of from 1 to 10 mm.
- Chromium-nickel materials composed of these two elements form a two-phase structure comprising a hard phase mainly comprising chromium and a soft phase mainly comprising nickel. Chromium-nickel materials having a total chromium content of less than 50% by weight have reduced resistance to corrosion and abrasion, failing to accomplish the objects of the present invention.
- Chromium-nickel materials having a total chromium content of 90% by weight or more have reduced plastic workability, and the working of such materials into wires become difficult because of formation of internal defects or surface cracks. From this reason, a total chromium content should fall within a range of from 50 to 90% by weight.
- the crystal grains of the material of the present invention should have a diameter of not more than 50 ⁇ m. If the grain diameter exceeds 50 ⁇ m, the material suffers from troubles such as cracking on hot working due to insufficient workability.
- the grain diameter is more preferably not more than 20 ⁇ m. With a grain size being controlled to 20 ⁇ m or less, uniformity of dispersion of the hard phase during the preparation of the material is enhanced, which leads to improved workability and improved abrasion resistance.
- the crystal grain size can be so controlled by using a raw material powder having a particle size of not more than 50 ⁇ m or by conducting hot working of an ingot within the above-specified range, i.e., from 300 to 800°C.
- a segregated phase mainly comprising the impurities is formed in addition to a hard phase and a soft phase.
- a segregated phase locally produces portions which are inferior in corrosion resistance.
- the material should have a two-phase structure consisting of a hard phase and a soft phase, with the total content of components other than chromium and nickel being controlled not to exceed 0.5% by weight.
- the content of impurities can be controlled by, for example, use of high purity raw materials.
- the high chromium-nickel material according to the present invention are suitable for use not only as wires as above exemplified but also as anti-corrosion materials for molten carbonates. That is, since the material of the present invention has excellent workability and very high corrosion resistance against molten carbonates containing traces of impurities, e.g., salts, it is particularly suitable as a vessel (electrolytic cell) for anode and cathode active substances in a molten carbonate type fuel electric cell.
- Carbonates to which the material of the present invention is applicable include sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, lithium carbonate, cesium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, strontium carbonate, and barium carbonate.
- Impurities which may be present in these carbonates include chlorides, bromides, iodides or fluorides of the above-enumerated alkali metals or alkaline earth metals. No case has been reported in which a corrosion resistant material having the composition specified in the present invention is applied to various kinds of molten carbonates. Further, since the material of the present invention is excellent in workability, it can be directly subjected to secondary processing into complicated shapes or structures for various applications.
- the high chromium-nickel material according to the present invention has excellent plastic workability and can be produced by a relatively simple process.
- a mixed raw material powder (a mixture of metallic chromium powder and nickel carbonyl powder) or an alloy powder (high chromium-nickel alloy powder) having a composition shown in Table 1 below was mixed with 2% of ethyl alcohol and compressed in a cold isotropic hydrostatic press to prepare an ingot having a density of 7.5 g/cm3.
- the ingot was sintered in an vacuum heating furnace at 1250°C for 2 hours and then filled in a stainless steel tube having a length of 125 mm, a diameter of 33 mm, and a wall thickness of 5 mm so tightly that no space was left. After being kept in an argon gas for about 15 minutes, the tube was evacuated to 10 ⁇ 4 mmHg at room temperature, and the exhaust vent was closed by welding.
- the thus prepared capsule was externally heated to 750°C and hot rolled through 11 passes to a degree of reduction of area of 50%, followed by gradually cooling. After being maintained at 800°C for 2 hours, the material was again hot rolled at 600°C in a direction perpendicular to the above rolling direction to obtain a degree of reduction of area of 93%.
- the microstructure, workability, abrasion resistance, and corrosion resistance of the resulting material were measured in accordance with the following methods. The results obtained are shown in Table 1.
- the material was buffed and electrolytically etched with oxalic acid.
- the etched surface was observed under an optical microscope.
- a micrograph of the sample of Example 1 is shown in Fig. 2(b).
- Hardness of hard and soft phases was measured with a Vickers hardness tester. A higher hardness was taken as an indication of higher abrasion resistance.
- the material was buffed and weighed. It was then soaked in a mixed aqueous solution of 10% nitric acid and 3% hydrofluoric acid at 50°C or in a 30% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at 150°C, and a rate of corrosion (mm/year) was determined from weight changes.
- the test in a sodium hydroxide aqueous solution was conducted in an autoclave.
- the material according to the present invention was apparently free from cracks or defects and had a two-phase structure in which a hard phase and a soft phase are uniformly dispersed, with the grain size being not more than 50 ⁇ m. It is also seen that the material exhibited excellent workability in 45° bending test, excellent abrasion resistance, and excellent corrosion resistance against both a strong acid solution and a strong alkali solution.

After being kept in an argon gas for about 15 minutes, the tube was evacuated to 10 ⁇ 4 mmHg at room temperature, and the exhaust vent was closed by welding.
- the thus prepared capsule was externally heated to 750°C and subjected to hot swaging through 11 passes to a degree of reduction of area of 50% (degree of hot wire drawing of 5% per pass in the 1st to 6th passes and 10% per pass in the 7th to 11th passes), followed by gradually cooling.
