Description

微合金化弹簧钢及其制备方法 技术领域
本发明涉及一种弹簧钢,具体涉及一种微合金化弹簧钢及其制备方法。
背景技术
弹簧是装备制造业的关键基础件,量大面广、品种繁杂,用以控制机件的运动、缓和冲击或震动、贮蓄能量、测量力的大小等,广泛应用于汽车、铁路、工程机械、电子电器等国民经济的各个领域。目前,我国高性能弹簧制造的保障能力不足,高档汽车、重载铁路等行业用高级弹簧仍需进口。随着汽车轻量化、重大技术装备大型化及参数极限化,高级弹簧的需求量快速增长。同时,高性能弹簧制造需求的日益增加,也对弹簧钢的品种和性能提出了越来越高的要求。目前,我国弹簧钢产品仍存在工艺水平及质量控制不稳定、高端品种和特殊品种需要依赖进口等一系列问题,与国际先进水平仍有较大差距。
未来,适应汽车轻量化需求,发展高强度、延伸率高、断面收缩率高和抗疲劳性能的弹簧钢,将是提高我国高端装备零部件自主配套能力、有效替代进口的必然趋势。
发明内容
针对现有技术的不足,本发明的目的是提供一种微合金化弹簧钢,具有机械强度高、延伸率大、断面收缩率高、抗疲劳性能好的优点;本发明同时提供其制备方法,科学合理,简单易行。
本发明所述的微合金化弹簧钢,包括如下质量比的化学成分:
C:0.48-0.55%;Si:0.15-0.35%;Mn:0.95-1.20%;Cr:1.00-1.25%;Mo:0.15-0.25%;V:0.15-0.25%;Nb:0.03-0.05%;Pb、Sn、Zn、Sb和Bi≤0.03%;O 2和H 2≤25ppm;S和P≤0.02%;Cu≤0.2%;Ni≤0.35%;余量为Fe。
各化学成分的用量标准和作用如下:
C:0.48-0.55%;
碳是通过固溶强化,提高弹簧钢的弹性强度、硬度和耐磨性,但降低弹簧钢的塑性、韧性和疲劳强度,将C控制在0.48-0.55wt.%之内,与其它合金元素同在时,可获得最佳强度,疲劳寿命与经济效益的组合。本发明采用的C含量远小于常规的弹簧钢,能够改变马氏体组织形态,提高弹簧钢的韧性。
Si:0.15-0.35wt.%;
硅通过固溶强化铁素体,提高钢的弹性,但弱化钢的塑性和韧性,并剧烈增加脱碳和石墨化的倾向,产生夹杂物,恶化弹簧的疲劳性能,故在本发明中,发现硅含量控制在 0.15-0.35wt.%内时,对疲劳强度的影响最低。本发明采用的Si含量远小于常规的弹簧钢,能降低对碳的排斥性,减少脱碳。
Mn:0.95-1.20wt.%;
Mn可以通过固溶提高钢的强度,同时,提高钢的淬透性,但过量的Mn会促进回火脆性,因此,需要将Mn的含量控制在0.95-1.20wt.%之间。
Cr:1.00-1.25wt.%;
铬通过固溶提高钢的强度,还能提高钢的淬透性,提高回火稳定性,有利于提高弹簧钢的性能与弥散沉淀,但过量的铬易形成碳化铬,降低钢的塑性,韧性,故将Cr的含量控制在1.0-1.25wt.%。
Mo:0.15-0.25wt.%;
Mo通过固溶提高钢的强度,强烈提高钢的淬透性,稳定碳元素,有益于提高弹簧钢的强度,但过量的Mo会改变钢的淬火曲线,倾向于羽毛状贝氏体的形成,不利于弹簧钢的疲劳强度,所以需要控制Mo的含量为0.15-0.25wt.%。
V与Nb,V:0.15-0.25%;Nb:0.03-0.05%;
V与Nb在钢中形成弥散细小的VC、NbC、VN或NbN,对基体剧烈强化,同时,细化晶界,阻止晶粒的长大,所以,可以得到细密高强度的组织,极大提高弹簧钢的强度与疲劳性能,但单一元素过量时,粒子易粗化,失去优异作用,故本发明采用两种元素的综合功能,经优化后,其最佳含量为V:0.15-0.25wt.%;Nb:0.03-0.05wt.%。
S和P≤0.02%;
钢中不可避免存在S、P等夹杂物,S、P与合金元素形成夹杂物,如MnS等,不仅抵消与合金元素的有益作用,而且S、P会产生偏聚,弱化钢的韧性,并成为疲劳裂纹源,严重降低了弹簧的疲劳强度,所以在该钢料中应严格控制S、P含量在0.02wt.%以内。
Cu≤0.2wt.%;
由于弹簧要经历后续热加工,Cu会严重降低材料的热塑性,在锻造中易产生微裂纹,严重影响弹簧的强度,所以应严格控制,由于废料中含有钢线,故该钢料中应严格控制废料的Cu使用量≤0.2wt.%。
Ni≤0.35%;
镍可提高钢的强度与韧性,降低脆性转变温度,尤其是提高淬透性,但镍的价格极贵,所以尽量采用其他合金来满足性能要求。
本发明所述的弹簧钢的厚度为25-38mm。
通过金相检测发现,所述的弹簧钢的微观组织为铁素体和珠光体组织,并且只有铁素体 和珠光体组织,不含其他组织。
所述的微合金化弹簧钢的制备方法,将弹簧钢原料依次进行熔炼、精炼、真空脱气、连续浇注冷却成钢锭、钢锭剥皮,再加热连续轧制、控制冷却、淬火和回火,得所述的弹簧钢产品。
其中,所述的弹簧钢原料能够采用部分废钢,但是废钢中含有铜线等,因此,废钢的用量需要控制在弹簧钢原料总质量的20%以内。
所述的熔炼温度为1630-1700℃,时间为25-60分钟;所述的精炼温度为1500-1550℃,时间为20-60分钟,精炼过程采用电磁搅拌。采用电磁搅拌能够均匀显微组织结构。
所述的真空脱气,真空度≤130Pa。
所述的连续浇注冷却成钢锭,先以25-35℃/min降温至1150℃以下,然后自然冷却至室温。从而使夹杂物尽量限制在钢锭的中心线上,轧钢成材后,对产品的性能的危害降至最低。
所述的钢锭剥皮的深度为至少3.0mm。
所述的再加热连续轧制开轧温度为900-1100℃,终轧温度为850-900℃。以在奥氏体区进行轧制,发挥材料的最佳形变性能,并为后续的冷却提供有利条件。
