Low carbon and low silicon content were preliminarily selected with the aim of meeting the requirements of superior quality in both welding and galvanizing. Phosphorus was chosen as one of the alloying elements, because it could reduce carbon activity in cementite and increase the stability of austenite. In addition, the possibility of phosphorus segregating at grain boundary was also discussed by thermodynamics as well as kinetics. Phase diagram was estimated at high temperature and the composition of the steel was then selected in the hyperperitectic range to avoid problems, which might occur in sheet steel continuous casting. Phase diagram in the inter.critical temperature was estimated for the steel to obtain the starting temperature of fast cooling. For understanding the minimum rate of fast cooling, pearlite growth kinetics was calculated with self-developed diffusion coefficients of elements in grain boundary. Overaging temperature was determined through the calculation of To temperature by both equilibrium and para-equilibrium assumptions, which was different from the current determination, which is only based on an equilibrium estimation.展开更多

The influence of the hot-dip galvanizing process on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 600-MPa hot-dip galvanized dual-phase steel(DP600) was investigated using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), and tensile tests. The results showed that, in the case of process A, the microstructure of DP600 was composed of ferrite, martensite, and a small amount of bainite. The granular bainite was formed in the hot-dip galvanizing stage, and martensite islands were formed in the final cooling stage after hot-dip galvanizing. By contrast, in the case of process B, the microstructure of the DP600 was composed of ferrite, martensite, bainite, and cementite. In addition, compared with the yield strength(YS) of the DP600 annealed by process A, that for the DP600 annealed by process B increased by approximately 50 MPa because of the tempering of the martensite formed during rapid cooling. The work-hardening coefficient(n value) of the DP600 steel annealed by process B clearly decreased because the increase of the YS affected the computation result for the n value. However, the ultimate tensile strength(UTS) and elongation(A80) of the DP600 annealed by process B exhibited less variation compared with those of the DP600 annealed by process A. Therefore, DP600 with excellent comprehensive mechanical properties(YS = 362 MPa, UTS = 638 MPa, A_(80) = 24.3%, n = 0.17) was obtained via process A.展开更多

The mathematical models developed predict the zinc coating thickness as a function of pressure and shear stress. The required pressure and shear stress profile on the strip surface were calcu- lated using regression analysis, and carried out using numerical simulation as FLUENT, a finite element analysis software. The influences of the outlet pressure, the nozzle to strip distance, the slot opening, the edge baffle plate, as well as the tilting angle of air knife were discussed. Combining with these results and regression analysis on the practical data, four first-order polynomial multi-parameter models were established for different targeted coating thicknesses with better regression coefficients. The validated model was used to carry out sensitivity analysis to de- termine the favorable controlling regime for the air jet wiping process.展开更多

The uniform transversal distributions of the front tension in the exit and the unit pressure were considered as the objective function. At the same time, the quality of the products, the stability of zinc layer, and the homogeneity of spangles were of considerable significance in the planishing process. The model was applied to the roll shape setting of the 1800 cold rolling 3# CGL hot galvanizing and planishing mill of Baosteel Co Ltd. After being planished, the flatness of a strip that was less than 6 I was more than 97%, and the flatness of others were less than 10 I; the pass percentage of the zinc lay- ers reached 100%.展开更多

Hot-rolled low carbon steel sheets are roiled with oxide scale in an experimental mill at room temperature, prior to annealing under a 20% hydrogen reducing atmosphere and galvanizing on a hot-dip galvanizing simulator. Micro-cracks formed in the oxide scale during cold rolling roughen the steel surface and enlarge the specific surface. Through-thickness cracks provide transport channels for hydrogen, and hence the reduction of oxide scale is en- hanced. When the sheet is dipped in the zinc bath, cracks are submerged by liquated zinc and the defects are not dis- tinct after hot-dip galvanizing. The overlay coating occludes with rough surface of the sheet, whereby a superior coat- ing adherence is realized.展开更多

An experimental design was developed to show the effect of the amount of the various alloying elements (Sn, Bi, Pb) on this phenomenon. The characterization of the effect was obtained by 1) deformation by three-point bending of a piece of steel with different levels of deflection;2) galvanizing and 3) observation and measurement of the cracks. A model of the critical deflection (deflection for crack starting) with the amounts of Sn, Pb, and Bi is presented and the predictions are described.展开更多

These sheets must meet very high surface quality requirements. The surface treatment of line rolls is known to have a great impact on strip quality. To prevent dusts such as zinc ash from pressing into the strip surface, we used a composite thermal spray surface treatment technique to treat rolls. The successfully developed tungsten carbide （WC） ＋ Ni-P composite plating technology improved the quality of the tungsten carbide thermally sprayed WC roll surface. This technique is also helpful to control defects such as adhered foreign materials in hot-dip galvanized automobile outer panel surfaces.展开更多

In the batch hot-dip galvanizing process, large amounts of wastes originate in liquid, solid and gaseous forms. Acidic waste containing iron and zinc ions is produced due to the cleaning of steel prior to zinc coating, which is considered the galvanizing acid waste. The galvanizing effluent used was collected from LTL Galvanizers Pvt. Ltd., Sapugaskanda, Sri Lanka, and converted into antimicrobial hematite (α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) nanoparticles. These nanoparticles were synthesized using a chemical precipitation method. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the nanomaterials produced. Two pathogenic bacteria and one pathogenic fungus were used to analyze the antimicrobial activity of the nanomaterials. All the samples showed excellent antibacterial and antifungal properties. And the material can inhibit the growth of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. According to the SEM images, some of the hematite particles were around 100 nm in size or less, which confirms that the describing method is viable in synthesizing hematite nanostructures. As shown in the XRD, the major diffraction peak, located at 2θ of 35.617° (110) in addition to minor peaks at 24.87° (012), 33.07° (104), 42.08° (113), 51.18° (024), 53.52° (116) and, 57.46° (018) confirm the spinel structure of iron oxide (α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>). The estimated average crystallite size of the nanomaterial is calculated to be 36.74 nm. The durability of the manufactured nanomaterial is excellent. This method is a time-efficient, environmentally friendly, cost-effective and industrially viable way to manufacture antimicrobial hematite (α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) nanomaterials from a galvanizing effluent.展开更多

文摘The detailed precipitation behavior and grain structure in different sub-regions of friction stir welding(FSW)AA6061-T6 joint after post-weld solution and aging treatments were explored.And the effects of microstructural evolution on mechanical properties,macro/micro electrochemical corrosion behavior and stress corrosion cracking behavior were investigated.The inherent microstructural gradients in FSW joint lead to dramatic degradation of mechanical properties and the presence of macro-galvanic effect,with the latter exacerbating anodic dissolution in heat-affected zone(HAZ)induced by micro-galvanic corro-sion and inhibiting pitting corrosion in stirred zone(SZ).Post-weld heat treatment(PWHT)causes the formation of matrix precipitates with similar densities in different sub-regions,resulting in optimized precipitate distribution,comprehensive hardness recovery,and diminished macro-galvanic effect.Grain boundary misorientation angle,grain size and pre-existing dislocations synergistically influence the evo-lution of grain boundary precipitates(GBPs)and precipitation-free zones(PFZs)during the PWHT.As a result,pitting corrosion is the dominant corrosion form in SZ due to the narrowest PFZ width and dis-persed GBPs,while intergranular corrosion is caused by continuous GBPs in other sub-regions.This study verified the dominant role of macro-galvanic effect and micro-galvanic effect in the corrosion process of FSW joint and FSW-PWHT joint,respectively.The maximum SCC susceptibility at HAZ in As-FSWed joint is dominated by enhanced anodic dissolution due to macro-galvanic effect.The SCC sensitivity of FSW-PWHT joint is higher than that of FSW joint due to high electrochemical activity and corrosion rate caused by the severe stress concentration between sub-grains and recrystallized grains at the thermome-chanical affected zone(TMAZ)/SZ interface.

The uniform transversal distributions of the front tension in the exit and the unit pressure were considered as the objective function. At the same time, the quality of the products, the stability of zinc layer, and the homogeneity of spangles were of considerable significance in the planishing process. The model was applied to the roll shape setting of the 1800 cold rolling 3# CGL hot galvanizing and planishing mill of Baosteel Co Ltd. After being planished, the flatness of a strip that was less than 6 I was more than 97%, and the flatness of others were less than 10 I; the pass percentage of the zinc lay- ers reached 100%.

文摘A new processing method for producing hot dip galvanized steel is designed and tested, in which pickling is skipped. Hot-rolled low carbon steel sheets are roiled with oxide scale in an experimental mill at room temperature, prior to annealing under a 20% hydrogen reducing atmosphere and galvanizing on a hot-dip galvanizing simulator. Micro-cracks formed in the oxide scale during cold rolling roughen the steel surface and enlarge the specific surface. Through-thickness cracks provide transport channels for hydrogen, and hence the reduction of oxide scale is en- hanced. When the sheet is dipped in the zinc bath, cracks are submerged by liquated zinc and the defects are not dis- tinct after hot-dip galvanizing. The overlay coating occludes with rough surface of the sheet, whereby a superior coat- ing adherence is realized.
文摘This paper presents a study on the cracking of steel pieces during their galvanization in alloyed liquid zinc. An experimental design was developed to show the effect of the amount of the various alloying elements (Sn, Bi, Pb) on this phenomenon. The characterization of the effect was obtained by 1) deformation by three-point bending of a piece of steel with different levels of deflection;2) galvanizing and 3) observation and measurement of the cracks. A model of the critical deflection (deflection for crack starting) with the amounts of Sn, Pb, and Bi is presented and the predictions are described.

文摘The effect of dew points(-50,-l0 and+10℃)on the galvanizing properties of a high-manganese twinning-inducedplasticity(TWIP)steel was studied.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM),glow discharge optical emission spectrometry(GDOES)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)were used for microscopic observation and qualitative analysis of the interfacial layer between the steel surface and the zinc layer after hot-dip galvanizing.SEM analysis results show thatthree diffcrent morphologies of metallic oxides are formed on the interfacial layer under the different dew points.GDOES results show that Al is present in the molten zinc,reacting with Fe on the steel surface to form Fe2Al5,which can increasethe galvanizing properties.XPS results show that the valence states of Mn in the interfacial alloy layer are Mn'*and Mn*+,and the valence stales of Fe are Fe^0,Fe^2+and Fe^3+.The experimental results show that the hot-dip galvanizing performanceis the best at-10℃ and the formation of Mn and Fe intermetallic oxides has a bad effect on hot-dip galvanizing behaviorof the high-manganese TWIP steel.The types of the formed surface oxides(MnO,Mn3O4,Mn2O3,FeO3,and Fe2MnO4)onthe surface of the steel sheet are confirmed.It can obtain the best hot-dip galvanizing performance of the high-manganese TWIP steel by controlling the dew point from-10 to-5℃.

文摘With the rapid development of the automobile industry, the use of galvannealed and galvanized steel sheets in automobiles is on the rise. These sheets must meet very high surface quality requirements. The surface treatment of line rolls is known to have a great impact on strip quality. To prevent dusts such as zinc ash from pressing into the strip surface, we used a composite thermal spray surface treatment technique to treat rolls. The successfully developed tungsten carbide （WC） ＋ Ni-P composite plating technology improved the quality of the tungsten carbide thermally sprayed WC roll surface. This technique is also helpful to control defects such as adhered foreign materials in hot-dip galvanized automobile outer panel surfaces.
文摘An iron and steel company＇ s hot galvanizing technology was chosen as the object. An orthogonal experimental scheme with 5 factors of mixed level was designed, according to the various factors affecting the distribution of slag. For each scheme, the amount of slag and slag height in different orthogonal schemes by simulation were obtained with FLUENT software. Then, range and variance analyses were selected to compare the trend of slag height in the different process parameters of the hot dip galvanizing process. Finally, the optimal combination of the process parameters was obtained.
文摘Galvanization is the process of applying a protective zinc coating to iron or steel to prevent rusting. In the batch hot-dip galvanizing process, large amounts of wastes originate in liquid, solid and gaseous forms. Acidic waste containing iron and zinc ions is produced due to the cleaning of steel prior to zinc coating, which is considered the galvanizing acid waste. The galvanizing effluent used was collected from LTL Galvanizers Pvt. Ltd., Sapugaskanda, Sri Lanka, and converted into antimicrobial hematite (α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) nanoparticles. These nanoparticles were synthesized using a chemical precipitation method. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the nanomaterials produced. Two pathogenic bacteria and one pathogenic fungus were used to analyze the antimicrobial activity of the nanomaterials. All the samples showed excellent antibacterial and antifungal properties. And the material can inhibit the growth of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. According to the SEM images, some of the hematite particles were around 100 nm in size or less, which confirms that the describing method is viable in synthesizing hematite nanostructures. As shown in the XRD, the major diffraction peak, located at 2θ of 35.617° (110) in addition to minor peaks at 24.87° (012), 33.07° (104), 42.08° (113), 51.18° (024), 53.52° (116) and, 57.46° (018) confirm the spinel structure of iron oxide (α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>). The estimated average crystallite size of the nanomaterial is calculated to be 36.74 nm. The durability of the manufactured nanomaterial is excellent. This method is a time-efficient, environmentally friendly, cost-effective and industrially viable way to manufacture antimicrobial hematite (α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) nanomaterials from a galvanizing effluent.

文摘Galvanic corrosion behavior of AZ91D alloy/45 steel couple in 3.5 wt.%NaCl solution under 0,0.2 and 0.4 T magnetic field were studied by microstructure observation,immersion test and electrochemical measurement.The mixed potential theory was used to estimate the galvanic current density and the mixed potential of the galvanic corrosion between AZ91D alloy and 45 steel.The results indicated that magnetic field could accelerate the corrosion of AZ91D alloy,and impede the corrosion process of 45 steel.The effect of magnetic field on corrosion sensibility and corrosion rate of these two alloys increased as the intensity rising.The galvanic corrosion rate of the couple was accelerated by magnetic field.With the magnetic field intensity rising,the galvanic corrosion sensibility and corrosion rate of the couple increased.The effects of magnetic field on the galvanic corrosion performance of the couple and the corrosion behavior of AZ91D alloy and 45 steel were due to the appearance of field gradient force and magnetohydrodynamic(MHD)force.The mixed potential theory has a certain accuracy to estimate the Ecouple and icouple values in this work.

文摘The electrochemical interaction between galena and monoclinic pyrrhotite was investigated to examine its impact on the physical and chemical properties of the mineral micro-surface.This investigation employed techniques such as electrochemistry,metal ion stripping,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,and quantum chemistry.The electrochemical test results demonstrate that the galena surface in the electro-couple system exhibits a lower electrostatic potential and higher electrochemical activity compared to the monoclinic pyrrhotite surface,rendering it more susceptible to oxidation dissolution.Monoclinic pyrrhotite significantly amplifies the corrosion rate of the galena surface.Mulliken charge population calculations indicate that electrons are consistently transferred from galena to monoclinic pyrrhotite,with the number of electron transfers on the mineral surface increasing as the interaction distance decreases.The analysis of state density revealed a shift in the surface state density of galena towards lower energy levels,resulting in decreased reactivity and increased difficulty for the reagent to adsorb onto the mineral surface.Conversely,monoclinic pyrrhotite exhibited an opposite trend.The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)test results indicate that galvanic interaction leads to the formation of hydrophilic substances,PbS_(x)O_(y) and Pb(OH)_(2),on the surface of galena.Additionally,the surface of monoclinic pyrrhotite not only adsorbs Pb^(2+)but also undergoes S^(0) formation,thereby augmenting its hydrophobic nature.
