Abstract

The invention discloses a production method of austenitic stainless steel for nuclear use with controlled cobalt content, comprising the following steps of raw material preparation, AOD process control, refining furnace treatment and continuous casting. The austenitic stainless steel smelted in the present invention is smelted with pure molten iron, without adding 300 series scrap steel, and the nickel alloy uses electrolytic nickel. The austenitic stainless steel smelted by this method has a Co content of ≤0.10%, which meets the requirements for the use of nuclear austenitic stainless steel; blast furnace After the molten iron enters the plant, it is firstly treated with slag removal, and then into the DDD for desiliconization and dephosphorization. The pretreated molten iron is mixed into the AOD converter, and then electrolytic nickel and high-carbon ferrochrome are added for production. The treatment process of dephosphorized molten iron ensures the purity of molten steel. At the same time, since the electric arc furnace does not participate in the production, the energy consumption cost of this scheme is effectively reduced, and the cost of steel per ton is reduced by 120 yuan / ton.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of production and manufacture of austenitic stainless steel for nuclear use, and in particular relates to a production method of austenitic stainless steel for nuclear use with controlled cobalt content. Background technique [0002] The radiation sensitivity of austenitic stainless steel is relatively low, generally after 10 21 n.cm -2 The irradiation effect is obvious only after irradiation, so austenitic stainless steel is the main material for pressurized water reactor core vessel lining, heat shield, pipes, valves, etc. The radiation effect of Co element content in austenitic stainless steel is relatively large, which tends to increase the radiation embrittlement of steel. Therefore, the smelting analysis of Co requires ≤0.20%, and strives to ≤0.10%. At present, the conventional smelting method of austenitic stainless steel is the production process of EAF+AOD+LF+CCM. The smelting analysis of austenitic stainle...
