Description

ENHANCED ALLOY RECOVERY IN MOLTEN STEEL BATHS UTILIZING CORED WIRES DOPED WITH DEOXID ANTS
Cross-Reference to Related Application
[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. provisional application No. 60/938,671, filed on May 17, 2007, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention relates generally to adding alloys to molten metal and steel in particular. More particularly, this invention relates to adding alloys and deoxidants to molten steel in order to increase recovery in the metal.
Background of the Invention
[0003] It is well known to add alloys and other additives to molten steel in order to improve the material properties, including strength and toughness, of the final steel product.
[0004] In the prior art, adding alloys and additives to molten steel is often accomplished by encasing powdered alloys and additives in a metal sheath to form a "cored wire" which is subsequently "injected" into the molten steel contained in a ladle at the steel refining facility of most steel mills. U.S. Patent No. 4,128,414 describes such an injection process. Some of the material injected into the steel does not stay in the steel. In order to efficiently produce additive-enhanced or alloy-enhanced molten steel, it is desirable to increase the "recovery" in molten steel.
[0005] "Recovery" is a measure of the amount of alloys and additives contained in the molten steel after injection. Recovery is expressed as the percent of alloy or additive injected in the steel that is contained in the steel after injection. The greater the percentage contained in the steel after injection, the greater the recovery will be. Greater recoveries mean lower cost to the steel maker because less cored wire is injected. Also, greater recovery usually means the final steel chemistry will be more predictable and repeatable. [0006] It has been well known that additive alloys (typically ground to powders under one millimeter in diameter) encased in a steel jacketed cored wire that is injected deep into molten baths results in a significant improvement in recovery. But it is also well known that the recovery of certain additive alloys is negatively affected by the oxygen contents of both the molten bath and the molten slag on top of the molten bath. Reducing the oxygen content of the molten bath and slag is possible; however, at no time can it be brought to zero. Most generally, there is always an amount of oxygen remaining in the molten metal and the slag that negatively affects the additive alloy recovery. The greater the oxygen level, the more negative the effect.
[0007] It is believed that oxygen 13 in the molten metal 10 causes the surface of the additive alloy 16 to become oxidized before the additive alloy powder particle 16 can become dissolved in the molten metal 10. This is depicted in Fig. 1. In this case, the oxidized layer 19 covers the additive alloy powder particle 16 and thereby reduces the overall density of the particle 16, making it more buoyant than the steel 10. For example, Nb has a density of 8.57 gm/m3 and the density OfNb2O5 is 4.47 gm/m3, but the density of steel is 7.6 gm/m3. Fig. 2 depicts an oxidized alloy having a lower density rising toward the surface of the molten steel 10. In other cases, the oxide layer 19 becomes a barrier to the molten additive alloy core 16. For example, 70% FeTi has a melting temperature of 1085 C, whereas, TiO2 has a melting temperature of 1850 C, but the molten steel 10 temperature is usually about 1600 C. This problem is illustrated in Fig. 3. These mechanisms have the affect of not allowing the additive alloy particle 16 to be fully dissolved in the metal molten 10 before the particle 16 rises to the slag surface where it is absorbed.
[0008] In other known methods, the purpose of the additive alloy 16 being injected into the molten bath 10 is to form nitrides and/or carbides beneficial to the final product. For years steel producers have used Calcium Cyanamid (CaCN2) for the purpose of increasing the nitrogen content in their molten bath 10. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 3,322,530. Further, the recovery of nitrogen is found to be greatly improved when the CaCN2 is added to the molten bath 10 using cored wire injection as described in U.S. Patent No. 4,897,114. [0009] Despite the improvements in the prior art, there remains a need to improve upon the recovery in the molten metals, and steel in particular.
Summary of the Invention
[0010] The present invention may be embodied as an alloy delivery device. The delivery device may include a blended substance having at least one additive alloy and at least one deoxidizing agent. The blended substance may be covered by an elongated sheath. The sheath may be a substantially hollow wire in which the blended substance resides.
[0011] The at least one additive alloy may be FeNb, FeV, or FeTi. The at least one deoxidizing agent may be Ca, CaSi, Si, Al, or CaCN2. The deoxidizing agent may be a powder typically comprised of particles having a diameter of less than one millimeter. The additive alloy may be ground powder particles typically having a diameter of less than one millimeter. The deoxidizing agent may be present in an amount of typically 5% to 50% of the mixture by weight or volume.
[0012] The present invention may be embodied as a method for providing an additive alloy to molten metal, wherein at least one deoxidizing agent is blended with at least one additive alloy to provide a blended substance. The blended substance may be encased in a metal sheath to provide an alloy delivery device. Molten metal may be produced and the alloy delivery device may be provided into the molten metal. The delivery device may be fed into the molten metal and the sheath may be allowed to melt in the molten metal. Once melted, the blended substance is allowed to mix with the molten metal and thereby results in dispersing the blended substance into the molten metal.
[0013] In one embodiment of the present invention, the recovery of the alloying additive in the molten steel is enhanced by blending deoxidizing powders with the additive alloys, such as, but not limited to, Ca, CaSi, Si, Al, CaCN2, etc., in varying amounts (typically, but not limited to, 5% to 50% of the mixture by weight or volume). Without intending to be bounded by theory, it is believed that when blended with additive alloying agents and contained within a cored wire that is injected into the molten bath, the deoxiding powders are released in close proximity to the additive alloy powders. The deoxiding powders react with the dissolved oxygen content of the molten metal creating an oxygen depleted zone in the same area as the additive alloy particles. Likewise, in the case of blending CaCN2 powders with nitride and/or carbide forming additive alloys in cored wires, the zone where the powders are released in the molten bath is both depleted in oxygen and enriched with carbon and nitrogen. Thus, the present invention provides an additive- enhanced or alloy-enhanced molten steel with improved recovery.
Brief Description Of The Drawings
[0014] For a fuller understanding of the nature and objects of the invention, reference should be made to the accompanying drawings and the subsequent description. Briefly, the drawings are:
Fig. 1 depicts a prior art method, wherein an oxygen enriched molten bath reacts with an additive alloy, thereby forming an oxide layer over an additive alloy core.
Fig. 2 demonstrates that, in the prior art methods an oxide layer will reduce the density, thus increasing the buoyancy of the additive alloy in the molten steel bath. Fig. 3 depicts a high melting temperature oxide layer that acts as a barrier to dissolution of the low melting temperature additive alloy core. Fig. 4 depicts an embodiment of the present invention, wherein CaCN2 particles reacting with oxygen in the bath cause an oxygen-depleted zone. At the same time carbon and nitrogen are released into the molten bath, causing enrichment in the oxygen-depleted zone. Fig. 5 depicts an embodiment of the present invention in which the deoxidizing agent does not release carbon or nitrogen into the molten bath. Fig. 6 is a flow chart of a method according to the invention.
Further Description of the Invention [0015] The present invention may be used to provide increased recovery in additive- enhanced or alloy-enhanced molten steel. Without intending to be bound by theory, it is believed that the addition of deoxidizing powders 31 to additive alloy powders 28 in cored wires for the injection into molten baths causes a chemical reaction between the deoxiding powder 31 and the oxygen atoms contained in the molten bath 10. This reaction reduces the oxygen content in the localized zone 34 in which the additive alloy powders 28 are released. This can be seen in Fig. 4 and Fig. 5. By reducing the oxygen content of the bath in zone 34 in which the additive alloy powders 28 are released, the amount by which these additive alloy powders 28 are oxidized is greatly reduced, thereby increasing the recovery of the additive alloy 28. By increasing the recovery of the additive alloy 28, the amount required to be injected into the molten metal 10 is reduced, thus saving time and money for the metal producer. Further, by increasing the recovery, the final chemistry of the molten steel becomes more predictable and repeatable - both being desired process traits.
[0016] In one embodiment of the present invention, an alloy delivery device is provided. The alloy delivery device may include a blend of an additive alloy such as FeNb, FeV, or FeTi, and a deoxidizing agent of Ca, CaSi, Si, Al, or CaCN2. This blend may be housed in an elongated metal sheath.
[0017] Unlike the prior art, the present invention has recognized the deoxidizing and/or the carborizing and nitriding potential if CaCN2 is combined with certain oxidizable nitride and/or carbide formers (e.g., FeNb, FeV, FeTi) and is then introduced into the molten bath by cored wire injection. Fig. 4 illustrates that when CaCN2 particles 31 are blended with nitride and/or carbide forming additive alloys 28 in cored wires, the CaCN2 particles 31 established a zone 34 around the additive alloy particle 28, wherein the oxygen content is reduced and the carbon and nitrogen contents are enriched.
[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the deoxidizing agent is in the form of a powder with particles that typically have a diameter of less than one millimeter, while the additive alloy is in the form of a ground powder with particles that typically have a diameter of less than one millimeter. In another preferred embodiment, the deoxidizing agent is present in an amount typically of 5% to 50% of the mixture by weight or volume.
[0019] Fig. 6 depicts a method according to the invention. In one such method, a deoxidizing agent of Ca, CaSi, Si, Al, or CaCN2 is blended 100 with an additive alloy, which may be FeNb, FeV, or FeTi. The blended material may be encased 103 in a metal sheath in order to provide an alloy delivery device. Then, once a bath of molten metal, such as molten steel, is produced 106, the alloy delivery device is provided 109 into the molten metal. The sheath is allowed 112 to melt, and the blended substance is disbursed into the molten metal. Fig. 6 depicts such a method.
[0020] It is believed that, by blending a compound that both deoxidizes and enriches the molten metal with nitrogen and carbon (e.g., CaCN2) with oxidizable nitride and/or carbide forming powders in cored wires, the zone in which the blend is released will show oxygen depletion and enrichment of both nitrogen and carbon. The result is improved recovery of the additive alloy, as previously described, with the benefit of producing more nitrides and/or carbides in the final product. In this case, the amount of nitride and/or carbide forming additive alloys injected into the molten bath can be reduced at the same time the final product will show the enhanced benefit of increased nitrides and/or carbides. Thus, production costs can be reduced and product properties can be improved.
[0021] Although the present invention has been described with respect to one or more particular embodiments, it will be understood that other embodiments of the present invention may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Hence, the present invention is deemed limited only by the appended claims and the reasonable interpretation thereof.
