Summary of the invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0016]
 The welding material for austenitic heat-resistant steel disclosed in Patent Document 2 and the austenitic heat-resistant steel weld metal disclosed in Patent Document 10 have excellent creep strength at 700°C. However, when assuming use at higher temperatures, it is difficult to secure creep strength with the austenitic heat-resistant steel welding material disclosed in Patent Document 2 and the austenitic heat-resistant steel weld metal disclosed in Patent Document 10. Is.
[0017]
 Further, since the austenitic heat-resistant steel weld metal and welding material disclosed in Patent Documents 7 to 9 mainly utilize Nb as a precipitation strengthening element, they certainly satisfy excellent characteristics such as high strength and corrosion resistance. To do. However, since the austenitic heat-resistant steel weld metals and welding materials disclosed in Patent Documents 7 to 9 have a very large strengthening ability, they are excessively strengthened inside the grains at the time of use at high temperature, and the relative grain boundary strength is increased. In some cases, a sharp decrease in toughness at the beginning of use, and an increase in susceptibility to hot cracking may occur.
[0018]
 Therefore, there has been a long-awaited development of a weld metal capable of fully utilizing the performance of a high-nitrogen-high-nickel-containing austenitic heat resistant steel, and a welded joint having the weld metal.
[0019]
 The present invention has been made in view of the current situation described above, and when using a high nitrogen high nickel content austenitic heat resistant steel as a welded structure, fully utilizes the performance of the high nitrogen high nickel content austenitic heat resistant steel. It is an object of the present invention to provide an austenitic heat-resistant steel weld metal having low susceptibility to hot cracking and excellent creep strength, and a welded joint having the same. Another object of the present invention is to provide a welding material suitable for welding a high nitrogen, high nickel content austenitic heat resistant steel, and a method for manufacturing a welded joint.
Means for solving the problem
[0020]
 The present inventors have conducted various studies on austenitic heat-resisting steel containing high nitrogen and high nickel containing W and Nb. As a result, the following matters were found.
[0021]
 Similar to Nb, by adding V that precipitates carbonitrides, it is possible to secure the creep strength during long-term use.
[0022]
 Further, in a high-nitrogen, high-nickel content austenitic heat resistant steel, nitrides composed of Cr, Ni and N may precipitate in the high temperature region, resulting in a decrease in the amount of solid solution nitrogen in the matrix. Since this nitride has a large amount of precipitation as the amount of Si increases for structural stability, the amount of solute nitrogen in the matrix decreases when the amount of Si increases, leading to a decrease in creep strength. Therefore, it is possible to secure the creep strength during long-term use by reducing the amount of Si.
[0023]
 Further, in order to secure the required creep strength at a high temperature exceeding 700° C., it is necessary to add a high content of W.
[0024]
 Nb, V, W, N and B contribute to the improvement of creep strength, and reducing Si contributes to the improvement of creep strength. As a result of conducting various experiments on these elements, it was found that the contribution of each element to the creep strength was applied to the coefficient and fn1=10(Nb+V)+1.5W+20N+1500B-25Si can be arranged as an index showing the creep strength. In order to secure the creep strength at high temperature, the value obtained by fn1 needs to be 10 or more.

 Hereinafter, an austenitic heat-resistant steel weld metal, austenitic heat-resistant steel welding material, a welded joint, and a method for manufacturing the same according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the present specification, a numerical range represented by “to” means a range including the numerical values ​​before and after “to” as a lower limit value and an upper limit value, unless otherwise specified. However, when there is a notice such as “exceeding” and “less than”, it means that the numerical values ​​before and after “to” are not included as at least one of the lower limit and the upper limit.
[0036]
  In the
 present invention, the reason for limiting the chemical composition of the austenitic heat resistant steel welding metal and the welding material for austenitic heat resistant steel is as follows.
[0037]
 In the following description, “%” display of the content of each element means “mass %”. Further, the chemical composition of the weld metal is determined by quantifying the chemical composition of the portion of the weld metal where the influence of the dilution of the base metal is not significant. More specifically, the chemical composition of the weld metal was determined by quantifying the chemical composition in the vicinity of the central portion of the weld metal, and if possible, quantifying the chemical composition of the portion 0.5 mm or more away from the fusion line. I shall. Further, the “impurity” is a component that is mixed in from an ore as a raw material, scrap, a production environment, or the like when industrially producing an austenitic heat-resistant steel, and refers to a component that is not intentionally included.

   0.06% to 0.14% (welding material)
 Carbon (C) stabilizes the austenite structure, forms fine carbides, and has a high temperature. Improves creep strength during use. In order to sufficiently obtain these effects, it is necessary to contain C by 0.06% or more. However, when the C content is excessive, a large amount of carbide is present in the weld metal, so that the ductility and toughness deteriorate. Therefore, the upper limit of the C content is 0.14% or less. The lower limit of the C content is preferably 0.07% or more, more preferably 0.08% or more. The upper limit of the C content is preferably 0.13% or less, more preferably 0.12% or less.
[0039]

    0.1% to 0.4% (welding material)
 Silicon (Si) has a deoxidizing effect and also has corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance at high temperature. It is an effective element for improvement. In order to obtain the effect, Si needs to be contained by 0.1% or more. However, when Si is excessively contained, a nitride consisting of Cr, Ni and N is deposited for structural stability, the amount of solid solution nitrogen in the matrix phase is reduced, and the creep strength is reduced. Therefore, the upper limit of the Si content is 0.6% or less in the weld metal and 0.4% or less in the welding material. The lower limit of the Si content is preferably 0.12% or more, and more preferably 0.15% or more for both the weld metal and the welding material. The upper limit of the Si content of the weld metal is preferably 0.58% or less, more preferably 0.55% or less, and further preferably 0.40% or less.

 Manganese (Mn) has a deoxidizing action like Si. Further, Mn stabilizes the austenite structure and contributes to the improvement of creep strength. In order to obtain these effects, Mn needs to be contained at 0.1% or more. However, if the Mn content becomes excessive, embrittlement is caused, and further, the creep ductility decreases. Further, when it is used as a welding material, solidification cracking susceptibility during welding is increased. Therefore, the upper limit of the Mn content is 1.8% or less for the weld metal and 1.2% or less for the welding material. The lower limit of the Mn content is preferably 0.15% or more, and more preferably 0.2% or more for both the weld metal and the welding material. The upper limit of the Mn content of the weld metal is preferably 1.6% or less, more preferably 1.4% or less.

   0.01% or less (welding material)
 Phosphorus (P) is an element contained as an impurity and reducing the creep ductility. Further, when used as a welding material, P enhances solidification cracking susceptibility during welding. Therefore, the upper limit of the P content is set to 0.025% or less in the weld metal and 0.01% or less in the welding material. The upper limit of the P content of the weld metal is preferably 0.023% or less, more preferably 0.020% or less. The upper limit of the P content of the welding material is preferably 0.008% or less, more preferably 0.006% or less. Although it is desirable to reduce the P content as much as possible, the extreme reduction leads to an increase in manufacturing cost. Therefore, the lower limit of the P content is preferably 0.0005% or more, and more preferably 0.0008% or more for both the weld metal and the welding material.
[0042]
 S: 0.003% or less (welding metal)
   0.003% or less (welding material)
 Sulfur (S), like P, is contained as an impurity and segregates at the columnar boundaries of the weld metal at the initial stage of use at high temperature. And reduce toughness. Further, it also enhances solidification cracking susceptibility during welding. In order to suppress these in a stable manner, it is necessary to set the upper limit on the S content to 0.003% or less. The S content is preferably 0.0025% or less, more preferably 0.002% or less. Although it is desirable to reduce the S content as much as possible, the extreme reduction leads to an increase in the manufacturing cost of the welding material. Therefore, the lower limit of the S content is preferably 0.0001% or more, and more preferably 0.0002% or more for both the weld metal and the welding material.
[0043]
 Ni: 25% to 35% (welding metal)
    28% to 35% (welding material)
 Nickel (Ni) enhances the stability of the austenite structure during long-term use and contributes to the improvement of creep strength. In order to sufficiently obtain the effect, it is necessary to contain 25% or more of Ni in the weld metal and 28% or more of Ni in the welding material. However, Ni is an expensive element, and the inclusion of a large amount causes an increase in cost. Therefore, the upper limit of the Ni content is set so that the content of both the weld metal and the welding material is 35% or less. The lower limit of the Ni content of the weld metal is preferably 25.5% or more, more preferably 26% or more. The lower limit of the Ni content of the welding material is preferably 28.5% or more, more preferably 29% or more. The upper limit of the Ni content is preferably 34.5% or less, and more preferably 34% or less for both the weld metal and the welding material.
[0044]
 Cr: 20% to 24% (welding metal)
    20% to 24% (welding material)
 Chromium (Cr) is an essential element for ensuring oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance at high temperatures. It also contributes to the formation of fine carbides to secure the creep strength. In order to sufficiently obtain the effect, it is necessary to contain Cr in an amount of 20% or more. However, if the Cr content exceeds 24%, the stability of the austenite structure at high temperatures deteriorates, resulting in a significant decrease in creep strength. Therefore, the Cr content is set to 20% to 24%. The lower limit of the Cr content is preferably 20.5% or more, more preferably 21% or more. The upper limit of the Cr content is preferably 23.5% or less, more preferably 23% or less.

 Tungsten (W) forms a solid solution in the matrix and creep strength at high temperature. It is also an element that greatly contributes to the improvement of tensile strength. In order to bring out the effect sufficiently, W must be contained at least in excess of 4.5%. However, since W is an expensive element, excessive inclusion of W causes an increase in cost and also lowers the structural stability. Therefore, the upper limit of the W content is 7.5% or less. The lower limit of the W content is preferably 4.7% or more, more preferably 5% or more, and further preferably 5.5% or more. The upper limit of the W content is preferably 7.3% or less, more preferably 7% or less.
[0046]
 Nb: 0.05% to 0.5% (welding metal)
    0.05% to 0.5% (welding material)
 Niobium (Nb) has a strong affinity with carbon and nitrogen and is a fine carbonitride grain. It precipitates inside and contributes to the improvement of creep strength and tensile strength of the weld metal at high temperature. In order to obtain the effect sufficiently, it is necessary to contain Nb in an amount of 0.05% or more. However, when the content of Nb becomes excessive, the amount of precipitation at the initial stage of use at high temperature increases, resulting in a decrease in toughness. Therefore, the upper limit of the Nb content is 0.5% or less. The lower limit of the Nb content is preferably 0.08% or more, and more preferably 0.1% or more for both the weld metal and the welding material. The upper limit of the Nb content of the weld metal is preferably 0.48% or less, more preferably 0.45% or less. The upper limit of the Nb content of the welding material is 0.47% or less, more preferably 0.4% or less.

Pre-welding heat treatment (preheating) and post-welding heat treatment were not performed. Then, a round bar creep rupture test piece was sampled from the entire weld metal part. Then, a creep rupture test was performed under the conditions of 750° C. and 127 MPa, and those having a target breaking time of more than 1000 hours under these conditions were “passed”, and those having a breaking time of 1000 hours or less were rejected.
[0099]
 Table 2 also shows the results of the above tests.
[0100]
[Table 2]

[0101]
 From Table 2, it is clear that the welding materials with reference numerals 1 to 6 whose chemical composition is within the range defined by the present invention have low weld hot crack susceptibility and satisfy the target creep rupture time.
[0102]
 On the other hand, the welding material having a W content lower than the range of the present invention of reference numeral 7, the welding material of the reference numerals 8 and 13 not containing B, and the welding material of a reference numeral 9 having a Si content higher than the scope of the present invention. The welding material had a low susceptibility to hot cracking, but the creep strength was below the target. Regarding the welding material of reference numeral 10, which satisfied the component range of the present invention but had a low value of fn1, the creep strength was lower than the target although the hot cracking susceptibility was low. In addition, the welding material with the reference numeral 11 having a B content higher than the range of the present invention and the welding material with the reference numeral 12 having a Nb content higher than the range of the present invention had increased creep susceptibility, although creep strength was not a problem.
[0103]
 As described above, it can be seen that the welding material satisfying the requirements of the present invention has low hot cracking susceptibility and also satisfies creep strength. This shows that the welding material for austenitic heat resistant steels of the present invention can be a welding material suitable for welding austenitic heat resistant steels containing high nitrogen and high nickel.

 [Welding metal and welding joint
 ] From an ingot obtained by melting and casting a material having a chemical composition shown in Table 3 in a laboratory, by hot forging, hot rolling, cold rolling, heat treatment and machining, a plate thickness of 12 mm, A plate material (plate material (1)) having a width of 50 mm and a length of 120 mm was produced. The plate material (1) was used as a welding base material.
[0105]
 Furthermore, a plate material having a thickness of 4 mm, a width of 200 mm, and a length of 500 mm was formed by hot forging, hot rolling, heat treatment and machining from an ingot obtained by melting and casting a material having a chemical composition shown in Table 4 in a laboratory ( A plate material (2) was produced. A cut filler of 2 mm square and 500 mm length was produced from the plate material (2) by machining.
[0106]
[Table 3]

[0107]
[Table 4]

[0108]
 After processing a V groove having an angle of 30° and a root face (root face) of 1 mm in the longitudinal direction of the plate material (1), a commercially available steel plate (SM400B specified in JIS G 3160 (2008), thickness 25 mm, A width of 150 mm and a length of 200 mm) was restrained and welded on four sides using a covered arc welding rod (“DNiCrFe-3” specified in JIS Z3224 (1999)).
[0109]
 Then, using the produced cut filler, laminated welding was performed in the groove by manual TIG welding using Ar as a shielding gas to produce a welded joint. During welding, the heat input was 9 kJ/cm to 15 kJ/cm.
[0110]
 In the cross section obtained by cutting the weld metal of the obtained welded joint perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction, the widthwise center and the sheet thickness direction center were cut by a drill by about 1 mm to collect chips, and the weld metal was chemically analyzed. Table 5 shows the results.
[0111]
[Table 5]

[0112]
 [Welding crack resistance]
 Samples were taken from five points of the weld metal of each welded joint produced so that the observation surface was the cross section of the joint (cross section perpendicular to the weld bead). The collected sample was mirror-polished and corroded, and then examined under an optical microscope to examine the presence or absence of cracks in the weld metal. Weld joints in which no cracks were observed in all five samples and weld joints in which cracks were observed in one sample were judged as "pass". Welded joints in which cracks were observed in two or more samples were judged as "fail".
[0113]
 [Creep Rupture Test] From
 each welded joint, a round bar creep rupture test piece with the weld metal in the center of the parallel portion was sampled. Then, a creep rupture test is performed under the conditions of 750° C. and 127 MPa, and those having a rupture time of more than 1000 hours, which is about 80% of the target rupture time of the base material, are regarded as “pass”, and those having a rupture time of 1000 hours or less are “passed”. Rejected.
[0114]
 Table 6 also shows the results of the above tests.
[0115]
[Table 6]

[0116]
 From Table 6, the welded joints having the weld metals of the symbols A1 to A4, B1 to B4, C1 to C4, and D1 to D4, whose chemical compositions are within the range specified by the present invention, have low weld hot cracking susceptibility and creep. It is clear that the breaking time satisfies 80% or more of the target breaking time of the base material.
[0117]
 On the other hand, in the welded joints having the weld metals A5 and B5, the W content of the weld metal was less than 4.5%, which is the lower limit of the range of the present invention, and thus the creep strength was less than the target. .. Furthermore, in the welded joints having the weld metals A6 and B6, the Si content of the weld metal exceeded the upper limit of 0.6% of the range of the present invention, so the creep strength was below the target. Further, in the welded joints having the weld metals A7 and B7, the B content of the weld metal exceeded 0.005%, which is the upper limit of the range of the present invention, so that the weld hot cracking susceptibility was increased. Further, in the welded joints having the weld metals A8 and B8, the Nb content of the weld metal exceeded 0.5%, which is the upper limit of the range of the present invention, so that the weld hot crack susceptibility was increased. Further, in the welded joints having the weld metals A9 and B9, the value of fn1 was less than 10.0, so the creep strength was below the target.
[0118]
 As described above, the weld metal satisfying the requirements of the present invention has low hot cracking susceptibility and also satisfies the creep strength required as a welded structure, so that the performance of the high nitrogen, high nickel content austenitic heat resistant steel is sufficient. You can see that it can be used.
