Description

本発明は、橋梁や高層建造物、船舶などの溶接構造物に適用される鋼板に関し、殊に大入熱溶接後の溶接熱影響部(以下、単に「HAZ」と呼ぶことがある)の靭性に優れた厚鋼板に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a steel sheet applied to a welded structure such as a bridge, a high-rise building, or a ship, and in particular, the toughness of a weld heat affected zone (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as “HAZ”) after high heat input welding. It is related to the thick steel plate excellent in.

近年、上記各種溶接構造物の大型化に伴い、板厚が50mm以上である厚鋼板の溶接が不可避となっている。このため、あらゆる分野において、溶接施工効率の向上や施工コストの低減を目的として、大入熱溶接が指向される状況である。   In recent years, with the increase in size of the above various welded structures, it is inevitable to weld thick steel plates having a plate thickness of 50 mm or more. For this reason, in all fields, high heat input welding is aimed at for the purpose of improving welding construction efficiency and reducing construction costs.

しかしながら、大入熱溶接を行うと、HAZが高温のオーステナイト領域まで加熱されてから徐冷されるので、加熱時にオーステナイト粒成長、徐冷時におけるオーステナイト粒界からの粒界フェライト生成に起因してHAZの組織が粗大化し、その部分の靭性が劣化しやすいという問題がある。こうしたことから、大入熱溶接を実施しても、HAZにおける靭性(以下、「HAZ靭性」と呼ぶことがある)を高い水準に保つ技術の確立が望まれている。   However, when high heat input welding is performed, the HAZ is heated to the high temperature austenite region and then gradually cooled. Therefore, it is caused by austenite grain growth during heating and generation of grain boundary ferrite from the austenite grain boundary during annealing. There is a problem that the structure of the HAZ becomes coarse and the toughness of the portion tends to deteriorate. For these reasons, it is desired to establish a technique for maintaining the toughness in HAZ (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “HAZ toughness”) at a high level even when high heat input welding is performed.

大入熱溶接時におけるHAZ靭性を確保するために適用される代表的な技術として、酸化物、硫化物或いは窒化物といった介在物を起点とした粒内変態促進による組織微細化技術が挙げられる。この技術は、溶接終了後の冷却時において、粒内に存在する介在物によって微細な変態組織を発達させ、粗大な粒界フェライト生成を抑制し、これによってHAZ靭性を確保するものである。   A typical technique applied to ensure HAZ toughness during high heat input welding is a structure refinement technique by promoting intragranular transformation starting from inclusions such as oxides, sulfides or nitrides. In this technique, during the cooling after the end of welding, a fine transformation structure is developed by inclusions present in the grains, thereby suppressing the formation of coarse grain boundary ferrite, thereby ensuring the HAZ toughness.

こうした技術のうち、例えば酸化物を活用した技術として、特許文献1には、O濃度とCa濃度を制御することによって、MnSを複合析出させたTi含有酸化物を微細に分散させ、それを核とする粒内フェライト変態を促進する(即ち、粗大な粒界フェライト生成を抑制する)技術が提案されている。また、特許文献2では、TiとMgとを複合添加した系で、粒内フェライト核となるTi含有酸化物とMnSの複合体を生成させることによって、HAZ靭性に優れた溶接用高張力鋼を得る技術が開示されている。   Among these techniques, for example, as a technique utilizing an oxide, Patent Document 1 discloses that a Ti-containing oxide in which MnS is complex-precipitated is finely dispersed by controlling an O concentration and a Ca concentration, and is used as a nucleus. A technique for promoting the intragranular ferrite transformation (that is, suppressing the formation of coarse grain boundary ferrite) has been proposed. Further, in Patent Document 2, a high strength steel for welding excellent in HAZ toughness is produced by generating a composite of Ti-containing oxide and MnS that becomes an intragranular ferrite nucleus in a system in which Ti and Mg are added in combination. Obtaining techniques are disclosed.

また硫化物を活用した技術として、例えば特許文献3には、Caを1〜49原子%含むMn硫化物を分散させ、粒内フェライト変態を促進することによって、HAZ靭性に優れた溶接用高張力鋼を得る技術が提案されている。   As a technique utilizing sulfide, for example, Patent Document 3 discloses a high tensile strength for welding excellent in HAZ toughness by dispersing Mn sulfide containing 1 to 49 atomic% of Ca and promoting intragranular ferrite transformation. Techniques for obtaining steel have been proposed.

更に、窒化物を活用した技術として、例えば特許文献4には、TiN等を複合析出させたBNをフェライト変態の核として利用し、HAZ靭性を改善させる技術が提案されている。   Further, as a technique using nitride, for example, Patent Document 4 proposes a technique for improving HAZ toughness by using BN obtained by composite precipitation of TiN or the like as a nucleus of ferrite transformation.

酸化物、硫化物、窒化物等の介在物が粒内変態の核として機能するためには、直径が大きい方が有利であり、比較的直径が小さい介在物では粒内変態に寄与しないことになる。しかしながら、これまで提案されている技術では、粒内変態の核として機能する介在物が十分に存在しているとは言えず、必要なHAZ靭性が必ずしも得られていないというのが実情である。
特許第3155104号公報 特許第3256118号公報 特開2003−321728号公報 特開昭61−253344号公報
In order for inclusions such as oxides, sulfides and nitrides to function as nuclei for intragranular transformation, a larger diameter is advantageous, and inclusions having a relatively small diameter do not contribute to intragranular transformation. Become. However, in the techniques proposed so far, it cannot be said that there are sufficient inclusions functioning as the nucleus of intragranular transformation, and the necessary HAZ toughness is not necessarily obtained.

本発明は上記の様な事情に着目してなされたものであって、その目的は、化学成分組成を適切に調整すると共に、酸化物、硫化物或いは窒化物等の介在物の形態および個数を適切に制御することによって、大入熱溶接においても良好なHAZ靭性を確保することのできる高張力厚鋼板を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made paying attention to the circumstances as described above, and its purpose is to appropriately adjust the chemical composition and to change the form and number of inclusions such as oxides, sulfides or nitrides. An object of the present invention is to provide a high-strength thick steel plate capable of ensuring good HAZ toughness even in high heat input welding by appropriately controlling.

The inclusions targeted in the present invention include not only inclusions consisting of any one of oxides, sulfides, and nitrides, but also those in which two or more of these are complex precipitated.

本発明によれば、鋼板の化学成分組成を適切な範囲内に収めると共に、酸化物、硫化物或いは窒化物を少なくとも含む介在物の形態、およびその個数を適切に制御することによって、粒内変態に寄与する介在物個数を増大でき、HAZの靭性改善を図った高張力厚鋼板が実現できた。   According to the present invention, the chemical composition of the steel sheet falls within an appropriate range, and the form of inclusions containing at least an oxide, sulfide or nitride, and the number of the inclusions are controlled appropriately, thereby allowing intragranular transformation. The number of inclusions contributing to the increase in the thickness of the steel sheet can be increased, and a high-tensile steel plate with improved HAZ toughness can be realized.

一般的には、介在物を起点とした粒内変態には、直径の大きい介在物の存在が有利であるため、直径が比較的小さい介在物は粒内変態に寄与せず、十分なHAZ靭性が得られないことになる。本発明者らは、こうした着想の下で、大入熱溶接において、優れたHAZ靭性を実現するために、酸化物、硫化物或いは窒化物等の介在物の形態と粒内変態との関係について、様々な角度から検討した。   In general, inclusions having a large diameter are advantageous for intragranular transformation starting from inclusions. Therefore, inclusions having a relatively small diameter do not contribute to intragranular transformation, and have sufficient HAZ toughness. Will not be obtained. Under such an idea, the inventors of the present invention are concerned with the relationship between the form of inclusions such as oxides, sulfides, and nitrides and intragranular transformation in order to achieve excellent HAZ toughness in high heat input welding. Considered from various angles.

その結果、鋳造時に生成する酸化物、硫化物、窒化物といった二次介在物の複合析出によって、表面に多数の凹凸が形成される介在物のうち、凹部の最小曲率半径が0.1〜2.0μmであって、円相当直径で0.2〜5μmの介在物は、粒内変態の起点として効果的に機能することが判明した。そして、こうした介在物が所定量存在するように制御したものでは、優れたHAZ靭性を発揮する溶接用高張力厚鋼板が実現できることを見出し、本発明を完成した。   As a result, the minimum curvature radius of the concave portion is 0.1 to 2 among the inclusions in which many irregularities are formed on the surface by complex precipitation of secondary inclusions such as oxides, sulfides, and nitrides generated during casting. It was found that inclusions with a diameter of 0.0 μm and an equivalent circle diameter of 0.2 to 5 μm function effectively as the starting point of intragranular transformation. And what controlled so that these inclusions existed in predetermined amount discovered that the high-tensile steel plate for welding which exhibits the outstanding HAZ toughness was realizable, and completed this invention.

介在物の表面に上記のような凹凸を形成させるには、鋳造時の凝固過程で酸化物、硫化物、窒化物等の介在物の表面に複合析出する硫化物、窒化物といった二次介在物を利用することが効果的であり、こうした観点から、鋳造時に凝固が進行する1450〜1500℃の温度範囲における冷却時間を60〜300秒に制御すればよい。即ち、上記温度範囲を所定の時間内で冷却することによって、二次介在物の複合析出形態が制御され、凹凸が効果的に形成される。冷却時間が60秒よりも短いと、十分な複合析出量を確保できず、300秒より長いと、二次析出物が酸化物、硫化物、窒化物といった介在物を均一に覆うように複合析出し、凹凸が得られなくなる。   In order to form the above irregularities on the surface of inclusions, secondary inclusions such as sulfides and nitrides that are complex-precipitated on the surface of inclusions such as oxides, sulfides and nitrides during the solidification process during casting. From such a viewpoint, the cooling time in the temperature range of 1450 to 1500 ° C. where solidification proceeds during casting may be controlled to 60 to 300 seconds. That is, by cooling the temperature range within a predetermined time, the complex precipitation form of secondary inclusions is controlled, and irregularities are effectively formed. If the cooling time is shorter than 60 seconds, a sufficient amount of composite precipitation cannot be secured, and if it is longer than 300 seconds, the composite precipitates so that secondary precipitates uniformly cover inclusions such as oxides, sulfides, and nitrides. And unevenness cannot be obtained.

HAZ靭性に優れた高張力厚鋼板を得るためには、上記のような形態の介在物を、鋼中に観察視野1mm2当り100個(以下、「100個/mm2」と記すことがある)以上存在させる必要がある。本発明で対象とする介在物の大きさは、円相当直径で0.2〜5.0μmのものであるが、この大きさが0.2μmより小さいと、必要な凹部が十分に形成されない。一方、5.0μmを超えると、脆性破壊の起点となってHAZ靭性を却って低下させることになる。また凹凸を有する介在物が、鋼中に100個/mm2未満しか存在しない場合には、十分な粒内変態組織が得られず、HAZ靭性が低下することになる。 In order to obtain a high-tensile thick steel plate having excellent HAZ toughness, the inclusions having the above-described form may be described as 100 pieces in the steel per 1 mm 2 observation field (hereinafter referred to as “100 pieces / mm 2 ”). ) It is necessary to exist above. The size of the inclusions targeted in the present invention is a circle equivalent diameter of 0.2 to 5.0 [mu] m, but if this size is smaller than 0.2 [mu] m, the necessary recesses are not sufficiently formed. On the other hand, if it exceeds 5.0 μm, it becomes the starting point of brittle fracture and decreases the HAZ toughness. In addition, when there are less than 100 inclusions / mm 2 in the steel having irregularities, a sufficient intragranular transformation structure cannot be obtained, and the HAZ toughness is lowered.

上記のような凹部を有する介在物が粒内変態の促進に有効に機能する理由については、その全てを解明し得た訳ではないが、おそらく凹部でのフェライト変態核生成エネルギーの低下と考えることができた。またこうした観点から、凹部の最小曲率半径は0.1μm以上と規定したのである。しかしながら、凹部の最小曲率半径は2.0μmを超えると、平滑な表面に近いものとなって凹部の効果が減少する。尚、凹部の最小曲率半径とは、後述の方法で測定される形状パラメータを意味し、この値が大きいと凹凸の形態が平坦になるものである。またこうした凹部は、曲率半径が小さいほどフェライト変態を促進するという理由から、「最小」の曲率半径が問題となるので、本発明では対象とする介在物の凹部の最小曲率半径を規定したのである。   The reason why inclusions with recesses as described above function effectively in promoting intragranular transformation has not been fully elucidated, but it is probably thought that the ferrite transformation nucleation energy in the recesses is reduced. I was able to. From this point of view, the minimum radius of curvature of the recess is defined as 0.1 μm or more. However, when the minimum radius of curvature of the recess exceeds 2.0 μm, the effect of the recess is reduced because it is close to a smooth surface. In addition, the minimum curvature radius of a recessed part means the shape parameter measured by the below-mentioned method, and when this value is large, the form of an unevenness | corrugation will become flat. In addition, since the concave portion has a problem that the minimum radius of curvature becomes a problem because the smaller the radius of curvature promotes ferrite transformation, the present invention defines the minimum radius of curvature of the concave portion of the target inclusion. .

本発明で対象とする介在物は上記した形態を有するものであるが、上記した要件を満足しないものでは、HAZ靭性には直接関係しないものとなる。即ち、介在物の表面に多数の凹凸があっても、上記要件を満足しないものではHAZ靭性向上に大きな効果をもたらさないので、本発明で対象とする介在物とはならないのである。   The inclusions targeted in the present invention have the above-described form, but those that do not satisfy the above-described requirements are not directly related to the HAZ toughness. That is, even if there are many irregularities on the surface of the inclusions, those that do not satisfy the above requirements do not have a significant effect on improving the HAZ toughness, and therefore do not become inclusions targeted in the present invention.

次に、本発明の鋼板における成分組成について説明する。上記のように、本発明の鋼板は、介在物の形態や個数が上記の要件を満足していても、化学成分組成が適正範囲内になければ、HAZにおける優れた靭性を達成することができない。従って、本発明の厚鋼板では、介在物の分布状況が良好であることに加えて、夫々の化学成分の量が、以下に記載するような適正範囲内にあることも必要である。これらの成分の範囲限定理由は、下記の通りである。   Next, the component composition in the steel plate of the present invention will be described. As described above, the steel sheet of the present invention cannot achieve excellent toughness in HAZ unless the chemical composition is within an appropriate range even if the form and number of inclusions satisfy the above requirements. . Therefore, in the thick steel plate of the present invention, in addition to the good distribution of inclusions, the amount of each chemical component must be within an appropriate range as described below. The reasons for limiting the ranges of these components are as follows.

[C:0.03〜0.12%]
Cは、鋼板の強度を確保するために欠くことのできない元素であり、こうした効果を発揮させるためには0.03%以上含有させる必要がある。好ましくは0.04%以上である。しかしながら、C含有量が0.12%を超えると、溶接時にHAZに島状マルテンサイト相(MA相)が多く生成してHAZの靭性劣化を招くことになる。従って、Cは0.12%以下(好ましくは0.10%以下)に抑える必要がある。
[C: 0.03-0.12%]
C is an element indispensable for securing the strength of the steel sheet, and in order to exert such effects, it is necessary to contain 0.03% or more. Preferably it is 0.04% or more. However, if the C content exceeds 0.12%, a large number of island martensite phases (MA phases) are generated in the HAZ during welding, leading to deterioration of the toughness of the HAZ. Therefore, C must be suppressed to 0.12% or less (preferably 0.10% or less).

[Si:0.40%以下(0%を含まない)]
Siは、固溶強化によって鋼板の強度を確保するのに有用な元素であるが、過剰に含有させると、溶接時にHAZに島状マルテンサイト相(MA相)が多く生成してHAZの靭性劣化を招くことになる。こうした観点から、Si含有量は0.40%以下にする必要があり、好ましくは0.35%以下に抑える。
[Si: 0.40% or less (excluding 0%)]
Si is an element useful for securing the strength of a steel sheet by solid solution strengthening. However, if it is excessively contained, a large amount of island martensite phase (MA phase) is generated in the HAZ during welding, and the toughness of the HAZ deteriorates. Will be invited. From such a viewpoint, the Si content needs to be 0.40% or less, and is preferably suppressed to 0.35% or less.

[Mn:1.0〜2.0%]
Mnは、鋼板の強度を確保する上で有用な元素であり、こうした効果を有効に発揮させるには、1.0%以上含有させる必要がある。好ましくは1.4%以上である。しかし、2.0%を超えて過剰に含有させるとHAZの強度が上昇し過ぎて靭性が劣化するので、Mn含有量は2.0%以下とする。好ましくは1.8%以下である。
[Mn: 1.0 to 2.0%]
Mn is an element useful for ensuring the strength of the steel sheet, and in order to effectively exhibit such effects, it is necessary to contain 1.0% or more. Preferably it is 1.4% or more. However, if the content exceeds 2.0% excessively, the strength of the HAZ increases excessively and the toughness deteriorates, so the Mn content is set to 2.0% or less. Preferably it is 1.8% or less.

[P:0.03%以下(0%を含まない)]
不純物元素であるPは、粒界破壊を起こし易く靭性に悪影響を及ぼすので、その量はできるだけ少ないことが好ましい。靭性を確保するという観点からして、P含有量は0.03%以下に抑制する必要があり、好ましくは0.02%以下とする。しかし、工業的に、鋼中のPを0%にすることは困難である。
[P: 0.03% or less (excluding 0%)]
P, which is an impurity element, easily causes grain boundary fracture, and adversely affects toughness. Therefore, the amount is preferably as small as possible. From the viewpoint of securing toughness, the P content needs to be suppressed to 0.03% or less, preferably 0.02% or less. However, industrially, it is difficult to make P in steel 0%.

[S:0.001〜0.025%]
Sは、硫化物の生成に必須の元素であり、特に鋳造時の凝固過程で酸化物、硫化物、窒化物等の介在物の表面に硫化物として複合析出することにより、介在物表面の凹凸を形成する上で有効である。S含有量が0.001%よりも少なくなると、必要な凹凸を形成するのに十分な複合析出量が得られないため、下限を0.001%とした。また、S含有量が0.025%を超えると、介在物表面を均一に覆うよう硫化物が複合析出し、凹部の曲率半径が増大するため、粒内変態の促進効果が得られなくなる。こうしたことがら、S含有量の上限を0.025%とした。尚、S含有量の好ましい下限は0.002%であり、好ましい上限は0.020%である。
[S: 0.001 to 0.025%]
S is an element indispensable for the formation of sulfides. In particular, unevenness on the surface of inclusions is caused by complex precipitation as sulfides on the surface of inclusions such as oxides, sulfides and nitrides during the solidification process during casting. It is effective in forming. If the S content is less than 0.001%, a composite precipitation amount sufficient to form the necessary irregularities cannot be obtained, so the lower limit was made 0.001%. On the other hand, if the S content exceeds 0.025%, sulfides are complex-precipitated so as to uniformly cover the inclusion surface, and the radius of curvature of the recesses increases, so that the effect of promoting intragranular transformation cannot be obtained. For these reasons, the upper limit of the S content was set to 0.025%. In addition, the minimum with preferable S content is 0.002%, and a preferable upper limit is 0.020%.

Ti is an element that forms nitrides or oxides and contributes to improving the toughness of HAZ. In order to exhibit such an effect effectively, it is necessary to contain Ti 0.005% or more, preferably 0.010% or more. However, if the Ti content is excessive, the nitride or oxide becomes coarse and deteriorates the toughness of the HAZ, so it should be suppressed to 0.10% or less. Preferably it is 0.080% or less.

[N:0.0040〜0.030%]
Nは、窒化物の生成に必要な元素であり、特に鋳造時の凝固過程で酸化物、硫化物、窒化物等の介在物の表面に窒化物として複合析出することにより、介在物表面の凹凸を形成する上で有効である。N含有量が0.0040%よりも少ないと、必要な凹凸を形成するのに十分な複合析出量が得られないため、下限を0.0040%とした。また、N含有量が0.030%を超えて過剰になると、介在物表面を均一に覆うように窒化物が複合析出し、凹部の曲率半径が増大するため、粒内変態の促進効果が得られなくなる。こうしたことから、N含有量の上限は0.030%とする必要がある。尚、N含有量の好ましい下限は0.0050%であり、好ましい上限は0.025%である。
[N: 0.0040 to 0.030%]
N is an element necessary for the formation of nitrides. In particular, the precipitates are unevenly formed on the surface of inclusions by being deposited as nitrides on the surface of inclusions such as oxides, sulfides and nitrides during the solidification process during casting. It is effective in forming. If the N content is less than 0.0040%, a composite precipitation amount sufficient to form the necessary unevenness cannot be obtained, so the lower limit was made 0.0040%. Further, when the N content exceeds 0.030% and excessive, nitride is complex-precipitated so as to uniformly cover the inclusion surface, and the radius of curvature of the concave portion increases, so that the effect of promoting intragranular transformation is obtained. It becomes impossible. For these reasons, the upper limit of the N content needs to be 0.030%. In addition, the minimum with preferable N content is 0.0050%, and a preferable upper limit is 0.025%.

[O:0.0005〜0.010%]
Oは、酸化物の生成に必要な元素であり、O含有量が0.0005%よりも小さいと、十分な量の酸化物が得られないため、下限を0.0005%とした。また、O含有量が0.010%を超えて過剰になると、酸化物の粗大化によりHAZ靭性の低下を招くので、その上限を0.010%とした。尚、O含有量に好ましい下限は0.001%であり、好ましい上限は0.008%である。
[O: 0.0005 to 0.010%]
O is an element necessary for the generation of an oxide. If the O content is less than 0.0005%, a sufficient amount of oxide cannot be obtained, so the lower limit was made 0.0005%. Further, if the O content exceeds 0.010% and becomes excessive, the HAZ toughness is reduced due to the coarsening of the oxide, so the upper limit was made 0.010%. In addition, the minimum with preferable O content is 0.001%, and a preferable upper limit is 0.008%.

上記(1)式の関係は、酸化物、硫化物および窒化物等の生成に影響を与える元素として、O,SおよびNを選び、実験に基づいて求めたものである。[9×[O]/([S]+10×[N])の値(以下、「Z値」と呼ぶことがある)が0.05より小さくなると、硫化物、窒化物が介在物表面を均一に覆うように複合析出し、凹部の曲率半径が増大するため、粒内変態の促進効果が得られにくくなる。また、Z値が1.20を超えると、酸化物、硫化物、窒化物等の介在物の表面に、必要な凹凸を形成するのに十分な硫化物、窒化物の複合析出が得られにくくなる。尚、Z値のより好ましい下限は0.20であり、より好ましい上限は1.0である。   The relationship of the above formula (1) is obtained based on experiments by selecting O, S, and N as elements that affect the generation of oxides, sulfides, nitrides, and the like. When the value of [9 × [O] / ([S] + 10 × [N]) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Z value”) is less than 0.05, sulfides and nitrides cause the inclusion surface to move. Since the composite precipitation is performed so as to cover uniformly, and the radius of curvature of the concave portion increases, it is difficult to obtain the effect of promoting intragranular transformation. When the Z value exceeds 1.20, it is difficult to obtain sufficient sulfide and nitride composite precipitates to form necessary irregularities on the surface of inclusions such as oxides, sulfides and nitrides.
