Heat-resistant Steel Profiles for Furnaces

Heat-resistant Steel Profiles for Furnaces

Furnace heat-resistant steel is a special type of steel. Heat-resistant steel refers to steel that works at high temperatures and has thermal strength and thermal stability. It has excellent high temperature resistance, mechanical and oxidation resistance. It is mainly used in the manufacture of liner accessories for various kiln equipment, such as furnace body steel plates, boiler steel plates, etc. Its design and use are closely related to the improvement of environmental protection and energy-saving requirements, and have promoted the development of kiln equipment in a more efficient, energy-saving and environmentally friendly direction. In addition, it is also widely used in the manufacture of superheaters, main steam pipes and boiler fire chamber heating surfaces, and is one of the most critical materials in boiler manufacturing. This type of steel exhibits good physical properties and machinability at high temperatures, and the main materials include high-quality structural steel and low-alloy heat-resistant steel.
The main characteristics of heat-resistant steel include the ability to resist creep and fracture at high temperatures (thermal strength) and the ability to resist oxidation and gaseous medium corrosion at high temperatures (thermal stability). This type of steel is widely used in power and energy engineering, such as in the manufacture of oil refining equipment, boilers, nuclear vessels, steam turbines, synthetic chemical vessels, aerospace devices and other high-temperature processing equipment.
Heat-resistant steel includes oxidation-resistant steel and heat-resistant steel. Oxidation-resistant steel is also called non-scaling steel, while heat-resistant steel has good oxidation resistance at high temperatures and high high-temperature strength. In addition, heat-resistant steel is often used to manufacture parts that work at high temperatures in boilers, steam turbines, power machinery, industrial furnaces, and aviation, petrochemical and other industrial sectors. In addition to requiring high-temperature strength and resistance to high-temperature oxidation corrosion, these parts also need to have sufficient toughness, good machinability and weldability, and a certain degree of organizational stability.‌
Heat-resistant steel refers to a type of alloy steel that has high-temperature oxidation resistance when working in a high-temperature environment.
Heat-resistant steel is divided into martensitic heat-resistant steel, ferritic heat-resistant steel, austenitic heat-resistant steel, enhanced heat-resistant steel, and heat-resistant alloy. There are many varieties of heat-resistant steel, and different application environments have different requirements for heat-resistant performance. For example, the material used in automobile engines is martensitic heat-resistant steel.

Austenitic heat-resistant steel

 

Introduction:

 

Ⅰ. Low carbon: Mostly above 0.1%, and can reach 0.4%. Carbon is used to form carbides to maintain high thermal strength.

Ⅱ. Add a large amount of chromium and nickel. The total amount is generally above 25%. Cr mainly improves the thermochemical stability and thermal strength, while Ni ensures the acquisition of stable austenite.

III. Adding tungsten, molybdenum, etc. increases the recrystallization temperature and precipitates more stable carbides to improve thermal strength.

IV. Add vanadium, titanium, aluminum, etc. to form a stable second phase to improve thermal strength. The second phase includes carbides (such as VC, etc.) and intermetallic compounds [such as Ni (Ti, Al), etc.], and the latter has a better strengthening effect.

 

Classification

According to the alloy element composition, it can be divided into different series such as chromium-nickel, chromium-nickel-nitrogen, chromium-manganese-nickel-nitrogen, chromium-manganese-nitrogen, iron-manganese-aluminum, etc.:

 

1.Chromium-nickel system.It is the most widely used and most widely used series of steels. With its different chromium and nickel content ratios, it meets the needs of different temperature grades. As the chromium and nickel content increases, the oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength increase accordingly. Solid solution strengthening elements (tungsten, molybdenum), carbide-forming elements (vanadium, niobium, titanium) and trace elements (boron, zirconium, magnesium, rare earth, etc.) are added to the steel as needed to further improve the thermal strength of the steel.

 

The most typical grade is 1crl8Ni9. On this basis, 0Crl8NillTi, 0Cr18NillNb, Cr17Nil2Mo2, etc. can be used for 600-650℃ boiler tubes, various plate and tube materials for petrochemical industry with a certain stress of about 850℃, such as heating furnace tubes, heat exchanger tubes, combustion chamber cylinders, furnace hoods, etc. Appropriately increasing the chromium and nickel content forms Cr23Nil3 steel, which is used for heat-resistant components of furnaces at about 1000℃. 1cr25Ni20 (Si2) is a heat-resistant steel grade commonly used in countries around the world in the range of 1000-1200℃. In order to improve the carburization resistance and thermal strength of heat-resistant steel, Cr21Ni32AlTi (Incoloy800) has been developed abroad for use in petrochemical and nuclear energy industries. More strengthening elements tungsten and molybdenum are added to steels such as Cr14N|14W2Mo, OCrl5Ni-25Ti2MoAlVB, 1Cr22Ni20Co20Mo3W3NbN to improve thermal strength. The former is used for exhaust valve materials with higher loads, and the latter two grades are used for high-temperature turbine rotors, bolts, blades, etc. at 700-750℃.

 

2.Chromium-nickel-nitrogen system.In order to save nickel and improve the high-temperature strength of steel, nitrogen is added to the steel. China has developed grades such as 3Crl9Ni4N and 3Cr-24Ni7SiN (RE). The former can replace 1crl8Ni9, and the latter can replace lCr23Nil3, lCr25Ni20 and HK40 (4Cr25Ni20). 3cr24Ni7SiN (RE) has been included in the Chinese national standard and is widely used. 2Cr22Nil2N is an introduced steel type used for gasoline and diesel engine exhaust valves.

 

3.Chromium-manganese-nickel-nitrogen and chromium-manganese-nitrogen systems.At the same time, adding manganese and nitrogen to steel can save a lot of nickel. Many grades have been developed both at home and abroad. For example, 5Cr21Mn9Ni4N is a typical valve steel, which is widely used in gasoline and diesel engine exhaust valves that are mainly subjected to high temperature strength. On this basis, adding tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, and niobium can further improve the high temperature strength and be used for exhaust valves that withstand greater loads, such as China's Cr21Mn9WNbN, Cr21Mn-10MoVNbN, etc. 2Cr20Mn9Ni2Si2N and 3Crl8Mnl2Si2N are steel grades developed by China itself. They have good high temperature strength, good oxidation resistance and carburization resistance. They can be used as hanging brackets, carburizing furnace internals, heating furnace conveyor belts, trays, etc. The former is better at oxidation resistance than the latter, and can also be used as salt bath crucibles and other furnace materials. Compared with chromium-nickel steel, chromium-manganese-nitrogen and chromium-manganese-nickel-nitrogen steels have higher strength, but because more manganese is added to the steel, it has an adverse effect on high temperature oxidation resistance, and the oxidation resistance is not as good as chromium-nickel heat-resistant steel.

 

4.Iron-manganese-aluminum system.This type of steel does not contain any chromium or nickel at all, and forms an austenite matrix with manganese and carbon, relying on aluminum to solve the problem of high-temperature oxidation resistance. As early as 1934, Germany first published the iron-manganese-aluminum iron angle phase diagram. After discovering that there is a stable austenite phase in the carbon-containing iron-manganese-aluminum system, the research on iron-manganese-aluminum austenitic heat-resistant steel has gradually received attention. In order to save nickel and chromium, China began to study iron-manganese-aluminum heat-resistant steel. Drawing on foreign experience, it developed Mn30A19 type heat-resistant steel for furnace components at 700-950℃. In order to save alloy elements, according to the requirements of furnace heat-resistant steel below 950℃, 6Mnl8A15 type heat-resistant steel with better performance than Mn30A19 type was developed, saving 40% of alloy elements and improving process performance.Chinese brand 6Mnl8A15Si2Ti is furnace steel, 6Mnl8A15SiMoTi and 6Mnl8A15SiMoV are valve steel. 2Mnl8A15SiMoTi (2Mnl8A15Si2Ti) is a dual-phase steel that can be used to produce steel pipes to replace 1Crl8Ni9. When producing iron-manganese-aluminum steel deformation products, electroslag remelting is required to ensure quality and yield rate.
