Definitions

  • the present invention concerns high strength hot-rolled steel and a method for manufacturing such hot-rolled steel.
  • Martensitic flat steel products have for many years been manufactured using a method comprising the steps of heating a steel slab to an austenitizing temperature, hot-rolling, re-heating, quenching and tempering, or alternatively, heating a steel slab to an austenitizing temperature, hot-rolling, direct quenching and tempering.
  • European patent no. EP 2,576,848 discloses a method for producing a hot-rolled steel from a steel, whose composition as percentages by weight is C 0.075 - 0.12%, Si 0.1 - 0.8%, Mn 0.8 - 1.7%, Al 0.015 - 0.08%, P less than 0.012%, S less than 0.005%, Cr 0.2 - 1.3%, Mo 0.15 - 0.80%, Ti 0.01 - 0.05%, B 0.0005 - 0.003%, V 0.02 - 0.10%, Nb less than 0.3%, Ni less than 1%, Cu less than 0.5%, the remainder being iron and unavoidable impurities.
  • the patent describes direct quenched martensitic sheet-like steels which are temper annealed.
  • Such flat steel products may be used for applications, such as wear or structural applications, in which the steel must exhibit high strength in combination with sufficient hardness, bendability and impact toughness both in the as-produced steel products and in the HAZ (heat affected zone) area of welded steel products.
  • HAZ heat affected zone
  • An object of the invention is to provide improved hot-rolled steel.
  • This object is achieved by hot-rolled steel having a yield strength (Rp 0.2 ) of at least 1100 MPa along and/or transverse to the rolling direction and a chemical composition containing (in mass-%):
  • Carbon is needed to achieve high base material strength and the other elements listed above promote the strength of the weld so as to avoid softened zones in a welded seam which would "catch" the fracture.
  • Manganese, molybdenum and vanadium also promote the strength of quenched and tempered steel.
  • each element in the embodiments a) to d) provides a good combination of toughness and high strength.
  • Hot-rolled steel having the chemical composition given above and manufactured using the method described herein exhibits high strength (i.e. a yield strength (Rp 0.2 ) of at least 1100 MPa) along and/or transverse to a rolling direction and a tensile strength of at least 1120 MPa along and/or transverse to a rolling direction, good bendability (i.e.
  • a minimum bending radius of 5.0 x thickness along and/or transverse to a rolling direction preferably 4.0 x thickness along a rolling direction or more preferably 3.5 x thickness along a rolling direction and an impact toughness of at least 34 J/cm 2 and more preferably an impact toughness of at least 50 J/cm 2 when a Charpy V notched specimen having a thickness of 5-10 mm is measured at -40°C longitudinally to the rolling direction, and good ductility (i.e. an A%-elongation of at least 8% along and/or transverse to the rolling direction, preferably of at least 10% or most preferably at least 12%).
  • Mechanical properties are defined according to the testing instructions of standard ISO 10025-6.
  • this combination of properties is achieved both in the as-produced hot-rolled quenched and tempered steel products and in the HAZ (heat affected zone) area of welded hot-rolled steel products (which are welded using a filler material that is designed for steels having a yield strength of at least 1100 MPa, preferably of at least 960 MPa, more preferably at least 900 MPa, most preferably of at least 890 MPa, such as X90 or preferably X96).
  • the prior art includes hot-rolled steel sheets having a yield strength (Rp 0.2 ) of at least 1100 MPa, although those prior art hot-rolled steel sheets do not have such good weldability or such good mechanical properties when welded.
  • hot-rolled steel as used herein means a steel that is hot-rolled to be sheet-like, such as a hot-rolled heavy plate or preferably hot-rolled strip steel.

  • the alloying costs of the hot-rolled steel can be kept as low as possible while achieving the advantageous properties of the hot-rolled steel according to the present invention (since Nickel is an expensive alloying element).
  • Nickel prevents Copper from melting under the scale that may be formed on the outer surfaces of the steel when it is annealed before hot-rolling and which comprises iron oxides and thereby prevents Copper from going into the grain boundaries, which can weaken the grain boundaries. Weakened grain boundaries can promote surface cracking and defects during the hot-rolling process.
  • the chemical composition contains both Ni and Cu in a total amount of at least 0.5 mass-%, or at least 1.0 mass-%, or at least 1.2 mass-%.
  • the hot-rolled steel has a tensile strength of at least 1120 MPa, or at least 1130 MPa, or at least 1200 MPa, and/or maximum 1250 MPa or maximum 1300 MPa, or maximum up to 1450 MPa along and/or transverse to the rolling direction.

  • the t8/5 time is the time it takes for a weld seam and an adjacent heat-affected zone (HAZ) to cool from 800°C to 500°C.
  • welding seam means the total weld area (WM and HAZ).
  • a t8/5 time lower than 5 seconds may adversely affect the toughness properties of the steel.
  • a t8/5 time greater than 20 seconds may adversely affect the strength of the steel.
  • the MAG-welded transversal tensile test specimen's fracture does not occur in the weld metal or fusion line and the fracture is moved ⁇ 1 mm or ⁇ 2 mm or ⁇ 3 mm from the fusion line with or without reinforcement when using welding consumables having a tensile strength of 1100 MPa, preferably 960 MPa, more preferably 900 MPa, most preferably 890 MPa, and a t8/5 time of 8 - 12 seconds, preferably 6 - 18 seconds, more preferably 5-20 seconds.

Bell furnaces have removable covers called bells, which are lowered over the load and hearth using a crane. An inner bell is placed over the hearth and sealed to supply a protective atmosphere. An outer bell is lowered to provide the heat supply.
  • the steel may typically be subjected to a temperature of 450-600°C for a long period of time since the temperature inside the insulated chamber rises and falls slowly, which may cause brittleness in some steels since atomic segregations may form at grain boundaries, which can weaken the steels and make them very fragile at room temperature.

Typically, this takes several hours. If the austenitizing temperature is below 1200 °C, there can be a danger that not all of the alloying elements will dissolve into the austenite, i.e. the austenite is not made homogenous and during the tempering, the precipitation hardening may remain at a low level. On the other hand, if the austenitizing temperature is higher than 1350 °C, this will result in an exceptionally large grain size of the austenite and increased oxidation of the slab surface. Annealing time in reheating is typically varied in the range of 2 - 4 hours, but, depending on the selected furnace technology and the thickness of the slab, it can also be longer than 4 hours or shorter than 2 hours.

  • Steels according to invention have a yield strength of more than 1100 MPa, a tensile strength of more than 1120 MPa, good impact toughness and, surprisingly, extremely good elongation to fracture compared to known steels. Considering its high strength, steel according to the present invention also exhibits very good bending properties.
  • Bending tests were carried out using three-point bending with samples having an area of 300 x 300 mm 2 . Samples were bent to an angle of 90° with one press and all samples were bent into a Z-shape so that both the upper and lower surfaces of the samples were tested. Mechanical properties and bendability of the samples were tested both longitudinally with respect to the rolling direction, and transversely with respect to the rolling direction.
  • Welding tests were carried out using a metal active gas (MAG) welding method and V- and Y -grooves.
  • the welding consumables used were according to standard ENG 89 5 M21 Mn4Ni2.5CrMo (Commercial grade X96). The first pass was welded from bottom or top side, preferably from the bottom side, and others passes were welded from the top side.
  • Welding consumables having a tensile strength of 960 MPa were used and t8/5 was varied between 6 - 18 seconds. Tensile tests across the weld showed that the weld had a yield strength of 1100 MPa (Rp0.2) and the fracture was located at the base metal (BM).
  • the target was to achieve a combination of strength and toughness properties which are as good as possible in the weld so that matching tensile properties can be achieved without losing toughness.
  • the aim was to obtain a fracture in a static tensile test over the weld that is located as far as possible from the weld metal (WM) and fusion line (FL), which enables extremely good elongation to fracture values for the welded structure.
  • the behaviour of a welded structure is predictable and safe when the fracture in static loading takes place as far as possible away from the WM and FL and the elongation to fracture is high.
  • the inventors have found that steels according to the present invention can fulfill these requirements even if the yield strength for the base material is more than 1100 MPa.
  • known steels with such a high strength have a fracture located over the weld (WM or FL) when a tensile test is performed, especially when un-matching welding consumables are used (the yield strength of un-matching welding consumables is typically less than 1100 MPa).
  • Table 4 shows the welding parameters that were used in the tests and the test results obtained.
  • Steels according the invention have a fracture that is located at a distance from the weld (WM and/or FL) when a static load in a tensile test is set over the weld. It is surprising compared to known steels that such behaviour can be achieved with or even without reinforcement. Without reinforcement, the achievement of such behaviour is very innovative. Fracture location is labelled “BM” in Table 4 when the fracture is in the base material, "HAZ” when it occurs in the Heat Affected Zone, and "WM” when the fracture occurs in the Weld Metal.
  • Figures 2 and 3 shows typical hardness profiles over the welded seam tested near the face side and the root side of the welded samples. It is surprising that steels according to the present invention can have a very smooth hardness profile over the weld and that there are no soft zones that could start to neck during a tensile test and thereby influence the location of the fracture. Normally, steels with a yield strength of 1100 MPa welded with un-matching welding consumables (X90 and/or X96) exhibit some softening in the HAZ and especially in the WM. Steel according to the invention can maintain good hardness in the HAZ but also have good hardness in the WM due to the diffusion of alloying elements promoting hardening (i.e. Boron). Low carbon content in the steels according to the invention (i.e. 0.1 - 0.20 mass-% Carbon) ensures that a weld has high toughness as well as good hardness.
