The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of ferrochrome exothermic, with the alloy phase ratio of Abex U.S. Patent Publication, it has better wear-resistant corrosion resistance nature.
In the Abex United States Patent (USP) alloy of disclosed the sort of type in acidic medium in acidic medium wearing and tearing and Corrosion Mechanism be since the abradability particle in the liquid stream constantly except that the depassivation anticorrosion layer, thereby accelerated corrosion.
In order to replenish purification layer, in matrix, need high as far as possible chromium concn.
But, increasing chromium content simply and can cause forming the σ phase to improve its erosion resistance, σ can cause fragility mutually, is undesirable therefore.
The present invention is based on following understanding and finishes, increase the chromium of Abex U.S. Patent Publication alloy and the concentration of carbon simultaneously, this may increase the percent by volume of chromium carbide phase, and can improve the wear resistance of this ferrochrome exothermic, keep chromium concn in the matrix in certain level simultaneously, and do not cause forming the σ phase.As mentioned above, according to wearing and tearing and Corrosion Mechanism take place, the wear resistance of estimation improvement ferrochrome exothermic may be improved the wear-resistant and corrosion resistance nature of ferrochrome exothermic.
Composition (weight %) wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant ferrochrome exothermic provided by the invention is as follows:
34-50 chromium
1.5-2.5 carbon
≤ 5 manganese
≤ 5 silicon
≤ 5 molybdenums
≤ 10 nickel
≤ 5 bronze medals
One or more trace alloying elements of every kind of content≤1 are selected from titanium, zirconium, niobium, boron, vanadium and tungsten.
All the other are iron and institute's incidental impurities,
Its microstructure is the eutectic chromium carbide in matrix, its matrix be following defined ferrite, residual austenite and martensitic one or more.
Term " ferrite " refers to such an extent that be the body-centered cubic iron (α and/or δ form) that contains solid solution chromium.
Term " austenite " refers to such an extent that be the face-centered cubic iron that contains solid solution carbon and chromium.
Term " martensite " refers to such an extent that be austenitic transmutation product.
Preferably matrix contains 25-35%(weight) solid solution chromium.
Preferred microstructure is also to contain once chromium carbide in matrix, ferrite or once austenitic one of them.
(weight %) is as follows for the preferred content of elemental chromium, carbon, manganese, silicon, molybdenum, nickel and copper:
36-40 chromium
1.9-2.1 carbon
1-2 manganese
0.5-1.5 silicon
The 1-2 molybdenum
1-5 nickel
1-2 copper
For above-mentioned preferred composition, preferred substrate contains 29-32%(weight) solid solution chromium.
According to the present invention, the chromium and the carbon content that increase ferrochrome exothermic simultaneously make it to be higher than disclosed content in the Abex United States Patent (USP), make the hard carbide that forms more volume percentage ratio to improve wear resistance.More particularly, preferable is that the chemical equilibrium that increases chromium and carbon content makes the chromium carbide that forms more volume percentage ratio and do not increase matrix chromium content and make to reach and produce more than the mutually brittle threshold value of σ.
As can be seen, the preferred alloy of the present invention presents the antiwear anti-corrosion more superior than the alloy of Abex U.S. Patent Publication.This can be by following table 1 explanation, and table 1 has been listed the standard electrokinetic potential corrosion of Abex U.S. Patent Publication alloy and preferred alloy of the present invention and the result that the garden mill decreases test.The composition of alloy is provided by table 2.

As can be seen from Table 1, the corrosion-resistant and abrasion resistance properties of preferred alloy of the present invention is more far better than Abex alloy.
Alloy of the present invention has the microstructure of the alloy that is different from the Abex U.S. Patent Publication, and its difference can be proved by the accompanying drawing of the Photomicrograph that contains Abex U.S. Patent Publication alloy and preferred alloy of the present invention.
