Abstract(27) PDF(1)
Abstract:
Ultra-fine grain hot rolled sheets were produced in 1450 hot mill at PZH Steel, its composition is the same as Q235. The microstructures of ultra-fine grain steel are ferrite and pearlite. Ferrite grain size is about 4 μm. The tensile strength and yield strength of hot rolled sheets are over 510 MPa and 400 MPa respectively. The anisotropy of ultra-fine grain hot rolled sheet is slight. Inclusions are dispersed in steel, so the steel sheet is of good cold-bending property.

Abstract(20) PDF(1)
Abstract:
In order to produce HSLA steel which tensile strength exceeds 550 MPa on CSP line, chemical composition design, CSP continuous-casting simulation, rolling test and Gleeble experiment were carried out. The effect of vanadium-microalloying and controlled rolling & controlled cooling technique was investigated. The production process was drafted and this is the base for further investigating on vanadium-microalloying behavior on CSP line.

Abstract(23) PDF(1)
Abstract:
Effect of hot dip process on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-IF steel skin-passed galvanized sheet are studied on a continuous hot dip galvanizing line. The results show that the ferrite grain has a size of No.10 when the sheet temperature in RTH is below 830℃ and then coarsens gradually as sheet temperature increasing. As a result, the annealing texture of hot dip galvanized sheet changes from mainly {332}and {114}, when the ferrite grain is fine, to the typical {111} as the grain growth, accompanying with the increase of intensity, therefore the r-value increases. However, the r-value will decrease dramatically as the result of randomly distribution of texture when the sheet temperature in RTH exceeds 900℃. Skin-passing reduction has evidently effect on the mechanical properties of final products of Ti-IF steel skin-passed galvanized sheet. As the skin-passing reduction increasing, the yield strength increases obviously, the n-value decreases markedly, and the elongation decreases, but the tensile strength almost remains unchanged. In addition, its effect depends on the ferrite grain size of the final products. The coarser the ferrite grain is, the bigger the effect becomes. Therefore, r-value and n-value are contradictory to each other for skin-passed hot-dip galvanized Ti-IF sheets, and they should be balanced during planning hot-dip processes according to the application demand of customers.

Abstract(27) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The manufacturing process of EF steelmaking→LF refining→VD degassing→round concast has been established, by which rail steel round blooms U71Mn and PD3 have been successfully produced three times.

Abstract(28) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The effect of microalloying element Cr on microstructure and mechanical properties of high-carbon steel wire and the reasonable content of Cr in steel were investigated. The results show that the microstructure of steel is optimized with the Cr added,the content of pre-eutectoid ferrite in metallographic structure reduce,the content of sorbite increase,and the tensile strength of wire increase 75~100 MPa.

WU Bao-guo, LI Chun-lin, DONG Yuan-chi, WANG Shi-jun
2003, 24(4): 35-38.
Abstract(13) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The changing law of oxygen potential was studied during hot metal pretreatment by using Fe2O3-CaO-CaF2 and Na2CO3-Na2SO4 fluxes under the laboratory conditions. At the same time, the suitable range of oxygen potential for removing phosphorus and sulfur simultaneously was discussed. The results show that the oxygen potential in iron melt during dephosphorization can be reached to 5.911×10-6~10.03×10-6 in 5 min and then changes only in a narrow range. The final [P] content of 0.008%~0.012% and sulphur content of 0.003%~0.007% can be obtained at 1 623 K if the oxygen potential is controlled in the range 3.0×10-6~6.5×10-6.

2003, 24(4): 39-43.
Abstract(31) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The inclusion morphology is controlled by changing slag formation and reducing the added quantity of Al and bauxite in refining process. The results demonstrate that the most effective method to control the inclusion morphology is adding wollastonite or the mixture of wollastonite in refining process of steel cord. The cleanliness of molten steel has been greatly improved after adopting new slag refining process.

ZHANG Chen
2003, 24(4): 44-48.
Abstract(29) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The effect of ladle refining parameters on yielding rate of N and V of VN alloy was studied. The results show that the temperature, composition of steel and the slag quantity have no effects on the yielding rate. Oxygen-potential is the key factor, and its regressive relationship with the yielding rate of N was obtained. Although the final yielding rate of V and N isn't affected by adding Al2O3 and CaF2 in slag, the velocity of VN alloy entering steel is delayed greatly. The yielding rate of V can stably keep higher than 95% under normal conditions, but V will be oxidized gradually if the oxygen content is higher than 0.01%.

2003, 24(4): 67-70.
Abstract(16) PDF(1)
Abstract:
The influence of alloying element Ti on the formation of D-type graphite was analyzed from two aspects. Ti promotes the precipitation of primary austenitic dendrite, affects the morphology of the austenitic dendrite, and creates the avail condition for nucleation and growth of D-type graphite. The influence of titanium on nucleation and growth of graphite is connected to its content. When the content of Ti > 0.1%, it will primarily holdback graphitizing, and is helpful to the formation of D-type graphite.
