Problems solved by technology

As users' demand for high-grade steel, especially clean steel with low nitrogen, hydrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, oxygen and low inclusions, has greatly increased, such as X65 anti-H 2 S submarine pipeline steel, X52QS anti-strong acid ultra-low sulfur pipeline steel, CS-110SS anti-corrosion oil casing steel, WB36CN1 nuclear power pipe steel, etc. These high-quality products have a high mass fraction of nitrogen and hydrogen in steel Requirements, conventional ladle refining furnace refining technology is difficult to achieve
For this reason, "calcium carbide + aluminum powder + ferrosilicon powder + fluorite", "synthetic slag + slag washing reducing agent", "synthetic slag + molten calcium aluminate + slag washing reducing agent" and other refining slags have been implemented at home and abroad. Although the above-mentioned nitrogen, hydrogen and inclusion control technologies can achieve certain metallurgical effects, they all have shortcomings, especially difficult to achieve the best metallurgical effect of the ladle refining furnace
[0003] The traditional "calcium carbide + aluminum powder + ferrosilicon powder + fluorite" auxiliary slagging process has the disadvantages of too fast foaming agent, short foam retention time, poor stability, high consumption, serious environmental pollution, labor problems such as high strength
[0004] There are two disadvantages in using the slag-washing reducing agent as the refining agent: first, because the main functional components of the slag-washing reducing agent are restricted by resources and are unstable, such as Al content fluctuates greatly, Al 2 o 3 , SiO 2 The content is generally high; therefore, it is difficult to match the deoxidation ability of the refining furnace slag with the white slag making process of the refining furnace
When the end point [C] of the molten steelmaking converter was low and the amount of slag was large, it was necessary to add a large amount of slag washing reducing agent for deoxidation, but then the slag (Al 2 o 3 ) (SiO 2 ) and other acidic oxides, the decrease of slag alkalinity and surface tension are not conducive to the formation, maintenance and stable foaming of white slag, and in severe cases, "glass slag" will be formed
Using this material to assist slagging makes it difficult to stably realize metallurgical functions such as deep desulfurization and removal of inclusions in molten steel
Second, because the foaming components of the slag washing reducing agent are very few, it is difficult for the refining slag to form long-term stable foaming and realize the submerged arc heating of the electrode, and the molten steel can easily absorb N and H; therefore, the slag washing reducing agent is used to assist slagging process, not conducive to the effective control of molten steel [N], [H] content
However, using carbonates (such as CaCO 3 , MgCO 3 etc.) have two disadvantages as blowing agent: the one, blowing agent foams too fast, foam stability is poor, and blowing agent consumes high, serious environmental pollution
Second, carbonates (such as CaCO 3 , MgCO 3 etc.) CO produced by decomposition at high temperature (decomposition temperature is about 800°C) 2 It is an oxidizing gas, which is harmful to the secondary oxidation of molten steel

Embodiment 1

[0029] Refining agent of the present invention, the weight percent of its component is: CaC 2 --50%, SiC--15%, Al--15% and sustained release agent 20%; CaC 2的The block size or particle size is 1gmm, SiC is 2mm, Al is 4mm, and the slow-release agent is 4mm; each component processed according to the above block size or particle size is prepared, and then mixed according to the above ratio and double-woven with inner plastic and outer braid Layers of moisture-proof packaging, the weight is preferably 5-10kg / bag. During steelmaking, the molten steel for primary smelting in the converter is transported into the ladle refining furnace, and after a period of time after the refining station starts to be powered and heated and the slag is added, the ratio of 0.25 to 0.5 kg per ton of molten steel is added to the present invention. Or, during the refining process, adjust the slag according to the change of the slag; add 0.05-0.20kg per ton of molten steel each time to adjust the slag. ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-effect refining agent for a ladle refining furnace, which is prepared from following components in percent by weight: 45-70% of CaC2, 5-20% of SiC, 5-15% of Al and 10-20% of controlled release formulation. The lumpiness or granularity of the CaC2, the SiC, the Al and the controlled release formulation are respectively 5-20 mm, not more than 3 mm, 1-5 mm and not more than 5 mm. The elements Ca, Al, Si and C in the components of the refining agent all have relatively strong deoxidizing capacity and can meet the requirements of quickly and deeply deoxidizing the furnace slag and diffusing and deoxidizing the molten steel. The deoxidized element products can form white slag mineralogical phase together with synthetic slag components. The molten steel desulfurization and impurity removal are favorable. The contents of [N] and [H] in the refining process of the molten steel are reduced, and the energy consumption and the cost are decreased.
