[0001]The present disclosure relates to a composition and a threaded joint for pipes comprising a lubricating coating layer composed of the composition.
Background technology
[0002]Oil well pipes are used for mining oil and natural gas fields. The well pipe is formed by connecting a plurality of steel pipes according to the depth of the well. The steel pipes are connected by screwing the threaded pipe joints formed at the ends of the steel pipes.
[0003]
　A typical threaded joint for pipes used for fastening oil country tubular goods includes a pin-box structure composed of a member called a pin and a member called a box. The pin includes a pin-side thread formed on the outer peripheral surface of the end of the steel pipe. The pin may further include a pin-side metal seal and a pin-side shoulder. The box includes a box-side thread formed on the inner peripheral surface of the end of the steel pipe. The box may further include a box-side metal seal and a box-side shoulder. When the steel pipes are screwed together, the pin-side screw portion and the box-side screw portion come into contact with each other. When the threaded joint for pipes includes a metal seal portion and a shoulder portion, the metal seal portions and the shoulder portions come into contact with each other when tightening the screws.
[0004]
　During the lowering work of the oil well pipe, for various reasons such as trouble, the oil well pipe may be pulled up from the oil well, then the threaded joint for the pipe once fastened may be loosened, and then tightened again to lower the oil well pipe. The threaded part, metal seal part and shoulder part of the pin and box are repeatedly subjected to strong friction when the steel pipe is screwed and unscrewed. If these sites are not sufficiently durable against friction, goring (irreparable seizure) will occur after repeated screw tightening and unscrewing. Therefore, the threaded pipe joint is required to have sufficient durability against friction, that is, excellent seizure resistance.
[0005]
　Conventionally, a viscous liquid lubricant (grease lubricating oil) containing heavy metal powder called "dope" or "compound grease" has been used in order to improve seizure resistance and airtightness of threaded pipe joints. .. The compound grease is applied to the contact surface of the threaded joint (that is, the threaded portion or, if the threaded pipe joint has a metal seal portion and a shoulder portion, the threaded portion, the metal seal portion and the shoulder portion). Examples of compound greases are described in the API standard BUL 5A2.
[0006]
　However, heavy metals such as Pb contained in the compound grease may affect the environment. Therefore, various lubricating coatings have been proposed as new lubricants in place of compound grease.
[0007]
　International Publication No. 2009/05/77554 (Patent Document 1) and International Publication No. 2014/024755 (Patent Document 2) do not contain heavy metals that may affect the environment and provide a lubricating coating layer having excellent seizure resistance. A composition for forming is proposed.
[0008]
　The composition for forming a lubricating film on a threaded pipe joint described in Patent Document 1 contains one or both of rosin and calcium fluoride, metal soap, wax, and a basic aromatic organic acid metal salt. .. Since this composition for forming a lubricating film substantially does not contain harmful heavy metals such as lead, the load on the global environment is very small. In addition, the lubricating film formed from this composition is also excellent in rust prevention, and suppresses the generation of rust during storage of the threaded pipe joint. Therefore, Patent Document 1 describes that a threaded joint for pipes can continuously exert a lubrication function even after repeated tightening and loosening, and can secure airtightness after tightening.
[0009]
　The composition for forming a lubricating film on a threaded pipe joint described in Patent Document 2 includes melamine cyanurate, a basic aromatic organic acid metal salt, a pine fat-based substance, a wax, a metal soap, and a lubricant. Contains one or more selected from sex powders. If a lubricating film is formed using this composition, the occurrence of rust is suppressed in the threaded pipe joint, the lubricating function is continuously exhibited even after repeated tightening and loosening, and the airtightness is ensured after tightening. It is described in Patent Document 2 that this can be done.

Outline of the invention
Problems to be solved by the invention
[0011]
　By the way, when tightening a screw joint for a pipe, the torque at the completion of fastening (hereinafter referred to as fastening torque) is set so that a sufficient sealing surface pressure can be obtained regardless of the amount of screw interference. At the final stage of screw tightening, the surface pressure between the screws increases. Even if the surface pressure becomes high, if the torque increases stably without seizure, the fastening torque can be easily adjusted. Therefore, the threaded joint for pipes is required to have the ability to stably increase the torque even at high surface pressure. Hereinafter, this performance is referred to as high torque performance.
[0012]
　In the case of a threaded joint for pipes with a shoulder, the high torque performance is the torque increase immediately after shouldering in the region where the rotation speed is higher than the shouldering torque in the torque chart showing the relationship between the rotation speed and torque of the steel pipe when screwed. It is defined as the performance to maintain the rate. In the case of a threaded pipe joint having a shoulder, it can be expressed as a torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'.
[0013]
　When the threaded pipe joint has a shoulder portion, the pin and the shoulder portion of the box come into contact with each other when tightening the screw. The torque generated at this time is called shouldering torque. When screwing a threaded pipe joint, after reaching the shouldering torque, further screw tightening is performed until the fastening is completed. This enhances the airtightness of the threaded pipe joint. Excessive screw tightening causes the metals that make up at least one of the pins and the box to begin to undergo plastic deformation. The torque generated at this time is called yield torque. The torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'refers to the difference between the shouldering torque and the yield torque.
[0014]
　When the threaded pipe joint has a shoulder portion, if the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'is large, the fastening torque can be easily adjusted. Even when the threaded pipe joint does not have a shoulder portion, if the torque increases stably at high surface pressure, the fastening torque can be easily adjusted.
[0015]
　The compositions disclosed in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 can also form a lubricating film that improves seizure resistance and facilitates adjustment of fastening torque. However, it is preferable that excellent seizure resistance and high torque performance can be obtained by other compositions and lubricating coatings.
[0016]
　An object of the present disclosure is to provide a composition for obtaining a threaded pipe joint having excellent seizure resistance and excellent high torque performance, and a lubricating film layer formed from the composition, and to provide excellent seizure resistance and excellent. It is to provide a threaded joint for a pipe having high torque performance.

[0017]
　The composition according to the present disclosure is a composition for forming a lubricating film layer on a threaded pipe joint, and contains polyisobutylene, a metal soap, a wax, and a basic aromatic organic acid metal salt.

Mode for carrying out the invention
[0021]
　Hereinafter, the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The same or corresponding parts in the drawings are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will not be repeated.
[0022]
　The present inventors have conducted various studies on the relationship between the composition for forming the lubricating coating layer of the threaded pipe joint and the seizure resistance and high torque performance of the threaded pipe joint. As a result, the following findings were obtained.
[0023]
　When screwing steel pipes together, the optimum torque to finish the screw tightening is predetermined. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the relationship between the rotation speed and torque of a steel pipe when a screw joint for a pipe having a shoulder portion is screwed. FIG. 1 is also called a torque chart. If the threaded pipe joint is screwed with reference to FIG. 1, the torque initially increases in proportion to the number of revolutions. The rate of increase in torque at this time is low. If the screws are further tightened, the shoulders will come into contact with each other. The torque at this time is called shouldering torque. After reaching the shouldering torque, if the screws are tightened further, the torque will increase again in proportion to the number of revolutions. The rate of increase in torque at this time is higher than before reaching the shouldering torque. When the torque reaches a predetermined value (fastening torque), screw tightening is completed.
[0024]
　If the torque at the time of screw tightening reaches the fastening torque, the metal seal portions interfere with each other at an appropriate surface pressure. In this case, the airtightness of the threaded pipe joint is improved. Further, in the oil well, a high compressive stress and a high bending stress are applied to the threaded joint. In order for the pipe threaded joint to not loosen even under such stress, the pipe threaded joint must be fastened with a sufficiently high torque (appropriate fastening torque).
[0025]
　If further screw tightening is performed after reaching the fastening torque, the torque becomes too high. If the torque becomes too high, some of the pins and boxes will undergo plastic deformation. The torque at this time is called yield torque. If the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT', which is the difference between the shouldering torque and the yield torque, is large, there can be a margin in the fastening torque range. As a result, the fastening torque can be easily adjusted. Therefore, it is preferable that the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'is large.
[0026]
　In order to increase the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT', it is effective to reduce the shouldering torque or increase the yield torque. However, even if the composition of the lubricating film layer is simply changed so that the coefficient of friction increases or decreases, the shouldering torque and the yield torque generally behave in the same manner. For example, when the coefficient of friction of the lubricating film layer is high, the yield torque is high, but the shouldering torque is also high (called high shouldering). As a result, even if a predetermined tightening torque is reached, the shoulder surfaces do not come into contact with each other, and tightening may not be completed (called no-shoulder ringing). On the contrary, when the friction coefficient of the lubricating film layer is low, the shouldering torque is low, but the yield torque is also low. As a result, the shoulder portion or the seal portion may yield with a low tightening torque, and the fastening with a high tightening torque may not be possible.
[0027]
　As a result of diligent studies by the present inventors, by incorporating polyisobutylene in the lubricating film layer, the yield torque is increased and the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'is increased while maintaining the shouldering torque at the same level as the conventional one. We have obtained a previously unknown finding that we can do this. This point will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
[0028]
　FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the results of performing a Farex test using the compositions shown in Test No. 9 and Test No. 11 in Examples. The Farex test is a test in which a rotating journal pin is sandwiched between two V-shaped blocks, and the load applied to the blocks and the friction torque generated by applying the load are measured. A method of measuring seizure loads by the Farex test is specified, for example, in ASTM D 3233. In FIG. 2, the composition of test number 9 or test number 11 is applied to the surface of the journal pin to rotate the journal pin, and the load applied to the block and the friction torque generated between the rotating journal pin and the V-shaped block are shown. It is a line graph which shows the result of having measured and. The vertical axis of FIG. 2 shows the friction torque. The horizontal axis in FIG. 2 shows the load applied to the block.
[0029]
　With reference to FIG. 2, from a low load state to a certain range, the torque increases similarly when the composition of test number 9 and the composition of test number 11 are used. However, when the composition of Test No. 11 containing no polyisobutylene was used, the rate of increase in torque decreased when the load increased by a certain amount or more. This means that when the load (surface pressure) applied to the metal seal portion and the shoulder portion suddenly increases in the final stage of screw tightening in FIG. 1, the increase in torque becomes slower in the composition containing no polyisobutylene. do. That is, in the region of the torque chart shown in FIG. 1 in which the rotation speed is higher than the shouldering torque, the torque increase rate immediately after the shouldering cannot be maintained. In this case, the yield torque cannot be increased. However, when the composition of Test No. 9 containing polyisobutylene is used, the rate of increase in torque does not decrease even after the load becomes higher than a certain level. This means that in the final stage of screw tightening in FIG. 1, the torque continues to increase even when the load (surface pressure) suddenly increases. That is, in the region of the torque chart shown in FIG. 1 in which the rotation speed is higher than the shouldering torque, the torque increase rate immediately after the shouldering is maintained. In this case, the yield torque can be increased.
[0030]
　By increasing the yield torque while keeping the shouldering torque low, the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'is increased. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the relationship between the content (mass%) of polyisobutylene in the lubricating film layer and the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(relative value). FIG. 3 was obtained from an example described later. The vertical axis of FIG. 3 indicates the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(relative value). The horizontal axis of FIG. 3 indicates the content (mass%) of polyisobutylene in the lubricating film layer. Each value of the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(relative value) is obtained as a relative value based on the value of the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(100) when the API standard dope is used instead of the lubricating film layer. It is a numerical value. The white circles (◯) in FIG. 3 indicate the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(relative value) of the example in which the lubricating film layer was formed. The triangular mark (Δ) in FIG. 3 indicates the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(reference value, that is, 100) when the API standard dope is used instead of the lubricating film layer.
[0031]
　With reference to FIG. 3, in test number 11 containing no polyisobutylene, the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(relative value) was 60. On the other hand, in test number 9 containing polyisobutylene, the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(relative value) was 115. In the threaded joint for pipes provided with a lubricating film layer made of a composition containing polyisobutylene, the torque was stably increased even under high surface pressure at the final stage of screw tightening without increasing the shouldering torque. Therefore, the yield torque has increased. As a result, the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(relative value) exceeded 100.
[0032]
　With reference to FIG. 3, it can be seen that if the lubricating film layer contains polyisobutylene, the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'(relative value) exceeds 100 in other examples as well. That is, if the lubricating film layer contains polyisobutylene, excellent high torque performance can be obtained.
[0033]
　The present inventors have further found that when the lubricating film layer contains polyisobutylene, seizure resistance equivalent to that of the conventional API doping or higher seizure resistance than that of the conventional API doping can be obtained.
[0034]
　FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the relationship between the content (mass%) of polyisobutylene in the lubricating film layer and the seizure resistance. FIG. 4 was obtained from an example described later. The vertical axis of FIG. 4 shows the number of times (times) that the metal seal portion could be fastened without any irreparable seizure at the threaded portion and no seizure at the metal seal portion. The horizontal axis of FIG. 4 indicates the content (mass%) of polyisobutylene in the lubricating film layer.
[0035]
　With reference to FIG. 4, if the lubricating film layer contains polyisobutylene, the number of times the screw tightening can be repeated without seizure is 10 times or more, which is equivalent to the conventional API dope. That is, if the lubricating film layer contains polyisobutylene, not only excellent high torque performance can be obtained, but also excellent seizure resistance can be obtained.
[0036]
　As described above, if the lubricating film layer contains polyisobutylene, not only excellent high torque performance but also excellent seizure resistance can be obtained. The detailed mechanism for enhancing the high torque performance and seizure resistance of threaded pipe joints by containing polyisobutylene in the lubricating coating layer has not been clarified. However, the present inventors think as follows.
[0037]
　Polyisobutylene is a semi-solid polymer at room temperature (about 25 ° C.), and is considered to be easily dissolved in the wax contained in the lubricating film layer. Polyisobutylene may further suppress the decrease in wax viscosity even when the temperature rises when the threaded pipe joint slides. As a result, it is considered that the high torque performance of the threaded pipe joint can be obtained. In this case, since the viscosity of the wax in the lubricating film layer is further maintained, the thickness of the lubricating film layer may be maintained. As a result, it is considered that the seizure resistance is improved.
[0038]
　The composition of the present embodiment completed based on the above findings is a composition for forming a lubricating film layer on a threaded pipe joint, and is composed of polyisobutylene, metal soap, wax, and basic aromatic organic. Contains an acid metal salt.
[0039]

[0069]
　[Composition for Forming

To say. That is, the content of each component in the composition and the content of each component in the lubricating film layer 21 are the same. Hereinafter, the composition for forming the lubricating film layer 21 is also simply referred to as “composition”.
[0070]
　Hereinafter, each component in the composition will be described in detail. Unless otherwise specified, "%" for each component means mass% based on the total amount of non-volatile components of the composition. In the present embodiment, the non-volatile component means all components other than the solvent contained in the composition. The non-volatile components are, for example, polyisobutylene, metal soap, wax, and a basic aromatic organic acid metal salt.
[0071]
　[Polyisobutylene]
　Polyisobutylene is a polymer of isobutene represented by the general formula-(-C (CH 3 ) 2- CH 2- ) n- . Polyisobutylene is chemically inert because it does not have an unsaturated bond in its molecule, and has strong resistance to ozone, acids, alkalis, and the like. Polyisobutylene is a highly viscous semi-solid polymer. Polyisobutylene is highly sticky and viscous. When the composition contains polyisobutylene, it is presumed that the decrease in the viscosity of the composition can be suppressed even if sliding occurs at a high temperature. As a result, when the composition contains polyisobutylene, it is presumed that the frictional resistance at the friction interface of the lubricating film layer 21 rapidly increases under high surface pressure at the final stage of screw tightening, and the high torque performance is enhanced.

If the composition contains polyisobutylene, the seizure resistance of the threaded pipe joint is further increased to the same level as or higher than that of the conventional API doping.

On the other hand, when the polyisobutylene content is 30% or less, the decrease in the strength of the lubricating film layer 21 can be suppressed. When the polyisobutylene content is 25% or less, the increase in friction can be further suppressed and high seizure resistance can be maintained. Therefore, the upper limit of the polyisobutylene content in the lubricating film layer 21 is preferably 30%, more preferably 25%.
[0074]
　The average molecular weight (Mv) of polyisobutylene is preferably 30,000 or more. Therefore, the lower limit of the average molecular weight of polyisobutylene is preferably 30,000, more preferably 50,000. On the other hand, when the average molecular weight of polyisobutylene is 100,000 or less, the viscosity of the composition is suppressed to an appropriate range and the productivity is increased. Therefore, the upper limit of the average molecular weight of polyisobutylene is preferably 100,000, more preferably 90,000, and even more preferably 70,000.
[0075]
　In the present specification, the average molecular weight (Mv) of polyisobutylene means the viscosity average molecular weight. The viscosity average molecular weight is measured by the following method. The flow time of the diluting solution of polyisobutylene is measured using a capillary viscometer to determine the intrinsic viscosity [η]. The viscosity average molecular weight (Mv) is calculated by using the obtained intrinsic viscosity [η] and the Mark-Houwink formula ([η] = KM a ).

[0093]
　The content of the lubricating powder in the composition is preferably 0.5 to 20%.

Therefore, the number of times that screws can be tightened and screwed back without seizure increases. On the other hand, when the content of the lubricating powder is 20% or less, the strength of the lubricating film layer 21 is further increased. Therefore, the wear of the lubricating film layer 21 is suppressed. Therefore, the upper limit of the content of the lubricating powder is preferably 20%, more preferably 15%, and even more preferably 10%. The lower limit of the content of the lubricating powder is preferably 0.5%, more preferably 3%, and even more preferably 5%.
[0094]
　The [volatile organic solvent]
　composition may contain a volatile organic solvent. When coating at room temperature, a volatile organic solvent is added to the mixture of the components of the lubricating film layer 21 to prepare a composition. Unlike the substances contained in the composition, the volatile organic solvent evaporates in the lubricating film layer forming step. Therefore, the volatile organic solvent usually does not substantially remain in the lubricating film layer 21. However, since the lubricating coating layer 21 of the present embodiment may be a viscous liquid or a semi-solid, for example, 1% or less of a volatile organic solvent may remain. "Volatility" means that the film shows a tendency to evaporate at a temperature from room temperature to 150 ° C.
[0095]
　The type of volatile organic solvent is not particularly limited. The volatile organic solvent is, for example, a petroleum-based solvent. The petroleum-based solvent is, for example, one or more selected from the group consisting of solvent, mineral spirit, aromatic petroleum nafta, xylene and cellosolve corresponding to industrial gasoline specified in JIS K2201 (2006). ..
[0096]
　The volatile organic solvent preferably has a flash point of 30 ° C. or higher, an initial distillation temperature of 150 ° C. or higher, and an end point of 210 ° C. or lower. In this case, the volatile organic solvent is relatively easy to handle, evaporates quickly, and the drying time is short.
[0097]
　The content of the volatile organic solvent may be appropriately adjusted so that the composition can be adjusted to an appropriate viscosity according to the coating method of the composition. The content of the volatile organic solvent is, for example, 20 to 50 g when the total amount of the non-volatile components is 100 g.
[0098]
　[Other Ingredients] The
　composition may also contain known rust preventive additives, preservatives, coloring pigments and the like.
[0099]
　[Rust preventive additive]
　It is preferable that the lubricating film layer 21 has a rust preventive property for a long period of time until it is actually used. Therefore, the composition may contain a rust preventive additive. The rust preventive additive is a general term for additives having corrosion resistance. The rust preventive additive is, for example, one or more selected from the group consisting of aluminum tripolyphosphate, aluminum phosphite and calcium ion exchange silica. Preferably, the rust preventive additive contains one or two selected from the group consisting of calcium ion exchange silica and aluminum phosphite. As the rust preventive additive, a commercially available reactive water repellent can also be used.
[0100]
　[Preservative] The
　lubricating film layer 21 may further contain a preservative. Preservatives are a general term for additives that have corrosion resistance.
[0101]
　The total content of other components (rust preventive additive, preservative, coloring pigment, etc.) in the composition is preferably 2 to 10% by mass. When the total content of the other components is 2% or more, the rust preventive property of the lubricating film layer 21 is further stably enhanced. When the total content of other components is 10% by mass or less, the lubricity of the lubricating film layer 21 is stably enhanced.
[0102]
　By mixing the above-mentioned polyisobutylene, metal soap, wax, basic aromatic organic acid metal salt and other components, a composition for forming the lubricating film layer 21 can be produced. By applying the composition on at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44 of the threaded pipe joint and then drying it, the threaded pipe joint of the present embodiment having the lubricating film layer 21 can be manufactured.
[0103]
　[Thickness of
　Lubricating Coating Layer ] The thickness of the lubricating coating layer 21 is preferably 10 to 40 μm. When the thickness of the lubricating film layer 21 is 10 μm or more, high lubricity can be stably obtained. On the other hand, when the thickness of the lubricating film layer 21 is 40 μm or less, the adhesion of the lubricating film layer 21 is stable. When the thickness of the lubricating film layer 21 is 40 μm or less, the screw tolerance (clearance) of the sliding surface is further widened, so that the surface pressure during sliding is lowered. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the fastening torque from becoming excessively high. Therefore, the thickness of the lubricating film layer 21 is preferably 10 to 40 μm.
[0104]
　The thickness of the lubricating film layer 21 is measured by the following method. Any measurement point (area: 5 mm × 20 mm) on the pin-side contact surface 34 or the box-side contact surface 44 of the threaded pipe joint is wiped with absorbent cotton soaked with ethanol. The weight of the lubricating coating layer 21 is calculated from the difference between the weight of the absorbent cotton before wiping and the weight of the absorbent cotton after wiping. The average film thickness of the lubricating film layer 21 is calculated from the weight of the wiped lubricating film layer 21, the density of the lubricating film layer 21, and the area of ​​the measurement point.
[0105]
　[Arrangement of
　Lubricating Coating Layer ] The lubricating coating layer 21 is arranged as the outermost layer on at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44.

As shown in FIG. 10, the lubricating film layer 21 may be arranged only on the box-side contact surface 44. As shown in FIG. 11, the lubricating coating layer 21 may be arranged on both the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44.
[0106]
　Further, the lubricating coating layer 21 may be arranged on at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44, or may be arranged only in a part thereof. When the threaded pipe joint has a metal seal portion (pin side metal seal portion 32 and box side metal seal portion 42) and a shoulder portion (pin side shoulder portion 33 and box side shoulder portion 43), the metal seal portions 32, 42 The surface pressure of the shoulder portions 33 and 43 becomes particularly high at the final stage of screw tightening. Therefore, the lubricating film layer 21 is provided with a pin-side contact surface 34 having a metal seal portion (pin-side metal seal portion 32 and box-side metal seal portion 42) and a shoulder portion (pin-side shoulder portion 33 and box-side shoulder portion 43). When partially arranged on at least one of the box-side contact surfaces 44, a lubricating film is applied to at least one of the pin-side metal seal portion 32, the box-side metal seal portion 42, the pin-side shoulder portion 33, and the box-side shoulder portion 43. Layer 21 may be arranged. On the other hand, if the lubricating coating layer 21 is arranged on at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44, the production efficiency of the threaded pipe joint is increased.
[0107]
　The lubricating film layer 21 may be a single layer or a plurality of layers. The multi-layer means a state in which two or more layers of the lubricating coating layer 21 are laminated from the contact surface 34 or 44 side. By repeating the application and drying of the composition, two or more lubricating film layers 21 can be formed. If the lubricating coating layer 21 is arranged as at least one outermost layer on the pin-side contact surface 34 or the box-side contact surface 44, it is directly arranged on at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 or the box-side contact surface 44. It may be arranged on the plating layer and / or the chemical conversion treatment film described later.
[0108]
　[Plating layer]
　Preferably, the threaded pipe joint of the present embodiment is further provided between the pin-side contact surface 34 and the lubricating film layer 21 and / and between the box-side contact surface 44 and the lubricating film layer 21. It has a plating layer. The plating layer is, for example, a single-layer plating layer made of Cu, Sn or Ni metal, a single-layer plating made of Cu—Sn alloy, a single layer plating made of Zn—Co alloy, a single layer plating made of Zn—Ni alloy, or Cu—Sn—. It is a single-layer plating by Zn alloy plating, a two-layer plating layer consisting of a Cu layer and a Sn layer, and a three-layer plating layer consisting of a Ni layer, a Cu layer and a Sn layer.
[0109]
　The hardness of the plating layer is preferably 300 or more in Micro Vickers. When the hardness of the plating layer is 300 or more, the corrosion resistance of the threaded pipe joint is further stably increased.
[0110]
　The hardness of the plating layer is measured as follows. Select 5 arbitrary regions in the plating layer of the threaded pipe joint. In each selected region, Vickers hardness (HV) is measured according to JIS Z2244 (2009). The test conditions are a test temperature of room temperature (25 ° C.) and a test force of 2.94 N (300 gf). The average of the obtained values ​​(5 in total) is defined as the hardness of the plating layer.
[0111]
　In the case of a multi-layer plating layer such as the above-mentioned two-layer plating layer consisting of a Cu layer and a Sn layer, or a three-layer plating layer consisting of a Ni layer, a Cu layer and a Sn layer, the lowermost plating layer has a film thickness of less than 1 μm. It is preferable to do so. The film thickness of the plating layer (total film thickness in the case of multi-layer plating) is preferably 5 to 15 μm.
[0112]
　The thickness of the plating layer is measured as follows. The surface of the plating layer is brought into contact with a probe of an eddy current phase type film thickness measuring instrument conforming to ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 21968 (2005). The phase difference between the high-frequency magnetic field on the input side of the probe and the overcurrent on the plating layer excited by it is measured. This phase difference is converted into the thickness of the plating layer.
[0113]
　[Chemical conversion coating]
　Preferably, the threaded pipe joint of the present embodiment further includes a chemical conversion coating between the lubricating coating layer 21 and the plating layer. When the threaded pipe joint has a plating layer only on the pin-side contact surface 34, the chemical conversion coating is arranged between the plating layer on the pin-side contact surface 34 and the lubricating coating layer 21. When the threaded pipe joint has a plating layer only on the box-side contact surface 44, the chemical conversion coating is arranged between the plating layer on the box-side contact surface 44 and the lubricating coating layer 21. When the threaded pipe joint has a plating layer on both the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44, the chemical conversion coating is between the plating layer on the pin-side contact surface 34 and the lubricating coating layer 21. , And at least one of the plating layer and the lubricating film layer 21 on the box-side contact surface 44.
[0114]
　The chemical conversion coating is, for example, a phosphate chemical conversion coating, a oxalate chemical conversion coating, and a borate chemical conversion coating. The chemical conversion coating is porous. Therefore, if the lubricating film layer 21 is formed on the chemical conversion coating film, the adhesion of the lubricating film layer 21 is further enhanced by the so-called "anchor effect". The preferred thickness of the chemical conversion coating is 5 to 40 μm. When the thickness of the chemical conversion coating film is 5 μm or more, sufficient corrosion resistance can be ensured. When the thickness of the chemical conversion coating film is 40 μm or less, the adhesion of the lubricating film layer 21 is stably enhanced.
[0115]
　The thickness of the chemical conversion coating film is determined by the following method. The threaded joint for pipes on which the chemical conversion coating is formed is cut in the thickness direction of the chemical conversion coating (perpendicular to the axial direction of the threaded pipe joint). The cross section of the chemical conversion-treated coating film is observed with an optical microscope at a magnification of 500 times, and the thickness of the chemical conversion-treated coating film is measured. If the thickness of the chemical conversion coating film measured by the above measuring method is 10 μm or less, it is cut again and measured again. In this case, the pipe threaded joint is cut in a direction inclined by 60 ° from the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the pipe threaded joint. The cross section of the obtained chemical conversion-treated coating film is observed at a magnification of 500 times using an optical microscope, and the thickness of the chemical conversion-treated coating film is measured. When the thickness of the chemical conversion treatment coating is measured again, the thickness of the remeasurement is defined as the thickness of the chemical conversion treatment coating.
[0116]
　[Blasting or pickling] In the
　threaded pipe joint of the present embodiment, the surface under the lubricating coating layer 21 in contact with the lubricating coating layer 21 may be a surface that has been blasted or pickled. The surface below the lubricating coating layer 21 that comes into contact with the lubricating coating layer 21 is when the threaded pipe joint does not have a plating layer on the pin-side contact surface 34 (that is, the lubricating coating layer 21 is directly on the pin-side contact surface 34). Is formed on the pin-side contact surface 34), and is the plating layer surface when the threaded pipe joint has a plating layer on the pin-side contact surface 34. The surface below the lubricating coating layer 21 that comes into contact with the lubricating coating layer 21 is when the threaded pipe joint does not have a plating layer on the box-side contact surface 44 (that is, the lubricating coating layer 21 is directly on the box-side contact surface 44). Is formed on the box-side contact surface 44), and is the plating layer surface when the threaded pipe joint has a plating layer on the box-side contact surface 44.
[0117]
　Surfaces that have been blasted or pickled have increased surface roughness. More specifically, when the pin-side contact surface 34, the box-side contact surface 44, and the plating layer surface are blasted or pickled, the surface roughness of the pin-side contact surface 34, the box-side contact surface 44, and the plating layer surface is rough. The is high. In this case, the adhesion of the lubricating film layer 21 formed on the lubricating film layer 21 is further enhanced. The surface roughness is preferably 1.0 to 8.0 μm in arithmetic average roughness Ra. The larger the arithmetic mean roughness Ra, the larger the contact area with the lubricating film layer 21. Therefore, the adhesion with the lubricating film layer 21 is enhanced by the anchor effect. If the adhesion of the lubricating film layer 21 is increased, the seizure resistance of the threaded pipe joint is further enhanced. When the arithmetic average roughness Ra is 1.0 μm or more, the adhesion of the lubricating film layer 21 is further enhanced. When the arithmetic mean roughness Ra is 8.0 μm or less, friction is suppressed, and damage and peeling of the lubricating film layer 21 are suppressed.
[0118]
　The arithmetic mean roughness Ra referred to in the present specification is measured based on JIS B 0601 (2001). Measurement is performed using a scanning probe microscope SPI3800N manufactured by SII Nanotechnology Co., Ltd. The measurement condition is a region of 2 μm × 2 μm of the sample, and the number of acquired data is 1024 × 1024. The reference length is 2.5 mm.

Pattern 4 is a case in which the lubricating coating layer 21 is provided and the chemical conversion coating and the plating layer are provided under the lubricating coating layer 21. The case where the lubricating film layer 21 is not provided is defined as pattern 5. If the above conditions are satisfied, the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44 may be any of patterns 1 to 5. Specifically, when the pin-side contact surface 34 is pattern 1 to pattern 4, the box-side contact surface 44 may be any of patterns 1 to 5. When the pin-side contact surface 34 is pattern 5, the box-side contact surface 44 is any of patterns 1 to 4. On the contrary, when the box-side contact surface 44 is the pattern 1 to the pattern 4, the pin-side contact surface 34 may be any of the patterns 1 to 5.

　for threaded pipe joints ] The composition of the base material for threaded pipe joints is not particularly limited. The base material is, for example, carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, or the like. Among alloy steels, two-phase stainless steels containing alloying elements such as Cr, Ni and Mo and high alloy steels such as Ni alloys have high corrosion resistance. Therefore, if these high alloy steels are used as the base material, excellent corrosion resistance can be obtained in a corrosive environment containing hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, and the like.

The solvent-free composition can be produced, for example, by heating a mixture of polyisobutylene, metal soap, wax, and a basic aromatic organic acid metal salt and kneading them in a molten state. A powder mixture in which all the components are mixed as a powder may be used as a composition.
[0125]
　The solvent-type composition can be produced, for example, by dissolving or dispersing polyisobutylene, metal soap, wax, and a basic aromatic organic acid metal salt in a volatile organic solvent and mixing them.
[0126]
　In the case of solvent-free compositions, the composition can be applied using a hot melt method. In the hot melt method, the composition is heated and melted to bring it into a low-viscosity fluid state. It is carried out by spraying the composition in a fluid state from a spray gun having a temperature holding function. The composition is heated and melted in a tank equipped with a suitable stirrer, supplied by a compressor to a spray head (held at a predetermined temperature) of a spray gun via a measuring pump, and sprayed. The heating temperature is, for example, 90 to 130 ° C. The holding temperatures in the tank and in the spray head are adjusted according to the melting points of the constituents of the composition. The coating method may be brush coating, immersion, or the like instead of spray coating. The heating temperature of the composition is preferably 10 to 50 ° C. higher than the melting point of the composition. When the composition is applied, it is preferable that at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44 on which the composition is applied is heated to a temperature higher than the melting point of the base. Thereby, good coverage can be obtained.
[0127]
　In the case of a solvent-type composition, the composition in a solution state is applied onto the contact surface by spray coating or the like. In this case, it is preferable to adjust the viscosity of the composition so that it can be spray-coated in an environment of normal temperature and pressure.
[0128]
　In the case of a solvent-free composition, by cooling the composition applied to at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44, the melted composition is dried and the lubricating film layer 21 is dried. Is formed. The cooling method can be carried out by a well-known method. The cooling method is, for example, atmospheric cooling and air cooling.
[0129]
　In the case of a solvent-type composition, the lubricating film layer 21 is formed by drying the composition applied to at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44. The drying method can be carried out by a well-known method. The drying method is, for example, natural drying, low temperature blast drying and vacuum drying.
[0130]
　Cooling may be carried out by rapid cooling of a nitrogen gas and carbon dioxide gas cooling system or the like. When rapid cooling is performed, the opposite surface of the pin-side contact surface 34 and / and the box-side contact surface 44 coated with the composition (in the case of box 4, the outer surface of steel pipe 1 or coupling 2; in the case of pin 3, steel pipe 1 Indirectly cool from the inner surface). As a result, deterioration of the lubricating film layer 21 due to rapid cooling can be suppressed.

[0132]
　[Plating layer forming step]
　The method for manufacturing a threaded pipe joint according to the present embodiment may include a plating layer forming step before the lubricating film layer forming step. The plating layer can be formed by, for example, electroplating or impact plating.
[0133]
　[Electroplating process] The
　electroplating process is, for example, a process of forming a plating layer by electroplating. When forming a plating layer, in the electroplating treatment, a Zn alloy plating layer may be formed on at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44 by electroplating. Alternatively, in the electroplating treatment, at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44 may be roughened by blasting or pickling, and then a Zn alloy plating layer may be formed by electroplating.
[0134]
　If electroplating is performed, the seizure resistance and corrosion resistance of the threaded pipe joint are enhanced. When forming a plating layer, the electroplating process includes, for example, single-layer plating with Cu, Sn or Ni metal, single-layer plating with Cu—Sn alloy, single-layer plating with Zn—Co alloy, Zn—Ni alloy. Single-layer plating treatment with Cu—Sn—Zn alloy plating, single-layer plating treatment with Cu—Sn—Zn alloy plating, two-layer plating treatment with Cu layer and Sn layer, and three-layer plating treatment with Ni layer, Cu layer and Sn layer. For steel pipe 1 made of steel with a Cr content of 5% or more, Cu-Sn alloy plating treatment, Cu plating-Sn plating two-layer plating treatment, and Ni plating-Cu plating-Sn plating three-layer plating Treatment is preferred.
[0135]
　The electroplating process can be carried out by a well-known method. For example, a bath containing ions of metal elements contained in the plating layer is prepared. Next, at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44 is immersed in the bath. By energizing the immersed pin-side contact surface 34 and / and the box-side contact surface 44, a plating layer is formed on at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 and the box-side contact surface 44. Conditions such as bath temperature and plating time can be set as appropriate.
[0136]
　More specifically, for example, when forming a Cu—Sn—Zn alloy plating layer, the plating bath contains copper ions, tin ions and zinc ions. The composition of the plating bath is preferably Cu: 1 to 50 g / L, Sn: 1 to 50 g / L and Zn: 1 to 50 g / L. The conditions of electroplating are, for example, plating bath pH: 1 to 10, plating bath temperature: 60 ° C., current density: 1 to 100 A / dm 2, and treatment time: 0.1 to 30 minutes.
[0137]
　When forming a Zn—Ni alloy plating layer, the plating bath contains zinc ions and nickel ions. The composition of the plating bath is preferably Zn: 1 to 100 g / L and Ni: 1 to 50 g / L. The conditions of electroplating are, for example, plating bath pH: 1 to 10, plating bath temperature: 60 ° C., current density: 1 to 100 A / dm 2, and treatment time: 0.1 to 30 minutes.
[0138]
　[Impact plating process] The
　impact plating process is a process that can be performed by mechanical plating in which particles collide with an object to be plated in a rotating barrel, or projection plating in which particles collide with an object to be plated using a blasting device. be.
[0139]
　In the method for manufacturing a threaded pipe joint according to the present embodiment, the surface in contact with the lubricating coating layer 21 may be blasted or pickled. Surface roughness can be formed by blasting or pickling. The surface in contact with the lubricating film layer 21 is the pin-side contact surface 34 when the pin-side contact surface 34 does not have a plating layer, and is a plating layer when the pin-side contact surface 34 has a plating layer. .. The surface that comes into contact with the lubricating coating layer 21 is the box-side contact surface 44 when the box-side contact surface 44 does not have a plating layer, and is a plating layer when the box-side contact surface 44 has a plating layer. ..
[0140]
　[Blasting process] The
　blasting process is, for example, a process of colliding particles with an object to be plated using a blasting device. The blasting process is, for example, a sandblasting process. The sandblasting treatment is a treatment in which a blasting material (abrasive) and compressed air are mixed and projected onto the contact surfaces 34 and 44. The blast material is, for example, a spherical shot material and a square grid material. By sandblasting, the surface roughness of the pin-side contact surface 34, the box-side contact surface 44, or the plating layer can be increased. The sandblasting process can be carried out by a well-known method. For example, a compressor compresses the air and mixes the compressed air with the blast material. The material of the blast material is, for example, stainless steel, aluminum, ceramic, alumina and the like. Conditions such as the projection speed of sandblasting can be set as appropriate.
[0141]
　[Pickling treatment] The
　pickling treatment is a treatment in which at least one of the pin-side contact surface 34 or the box-side contact surface 44 is immersed in a strong acid solution such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid or hydrofluoric acid to roughen the contact surface 34 or 44. Is. Thereby, the surface roughness of the contact surface 34 or 44 can be increased.
[0142]
　[Chemical conversion treatment]
　The method for manufacturing a threaded pipe joint according to the present embodiment may include a chemical conversion treatment step before the lubricating film layer forming step. The chemical conversion treatment is a treatment for forming a porous chemical conversion treatment film having a large surface roughness. The chemical conversion treatment is, for example, a phosphate chemical conversion treatment, a oxalate chemical conversion treatment, and a borate chemical conversion treatment. From the viewpoint of adhesion of the lubricating film layer 21, a phosphate chemical conversion treatment is preferable. The phosphate chemical treatment is, for example, a phosphate chemical treatment using manganese phosphate, zinc phosphate, iron manganese phosphate or zinc calcium phosphate.
[0143]
　The chemical conversion treatment can be carried out by a well-known method. As the treatment liquid, an acidic phosphate chemical conversion treatment liquid for general zinc plating materials can be used. For example, a zinc phosphate-based chemical conversion treatment containing 1 to 150 g / L of phosphate ion, 3 to 70 g / L of zinc ion, 1 to 100 g / L of nitrate ion, and 0 to 30 g / L of nickel ion can be mentioned. Manganese phosphate-based chemical conversion treatment liquid commonly used for pipe threaded joints can also be used. The liquid temperature is, for example, from room temperature to 100 ° C. The treatment time can be appropriately set according to the desired film thickness, for example, 15 minutes. In order to promote the formation of the chemical conversion treatment film, the surface may be adjusted before the chemical conversion treatment. The surface adjustment is a process of immersing in an aqueous solution for surface adjustment containing colloidal titanium. After the chemical conversion treatment, it is preferable to wash with water or hot water and then dry.
[0144]
　Only one type of the above treatment before forming the lubricating film layer may be carried out, but a plurality of treatments may be combined.
[0145]
　As the treatment before forming the lubricating film layer, the same treatment may be performed on the pin 3 and the box 4, or different treatments may be performed on the pin 3 and the box 4.

[0148]
　As shown in Table 1, the pin surface and the box surface of each test number were subjected to surface treatment. The numbers in the "base treatment" column of Table 1 indicate the order in which the base treatment was performed. For example, in the case of "1. Grinding finish, 2. Zn phosphate", zinc phosphate chemical conversion treatment was carried out after the grinding finish was performed. In the sandblasting process, abrasive grains Mesh100 were used to form the surface roughness. The arithmetic mean roughness Ra of each test number is as shown in Table 1. The arithmetic mean roughness Ra was measured based on JIS-B0601 (2013). A scanning probe microscope SPI3800N manufactured by SII Nanotechnology Co., Ltd. was used to measure the arithmetic mean roughness Ra. The measurement condition was a region of 2 μm × 2 μm of the sample as a unit of the number of acquired data, and the number of acquired data was 1024 × 1024. The film thickness of the Zn—Ni alloy was measured by the above-mentioned measuring method.

　[Seizure resistance evaluation test] The
　seizure resistance evaluation was performed by a repeated fastening test. Using the pins and boxes of test numbers 1 to 12, screw tightening and screwing back were repeated at room temperature (about 25 ° C.), and seizure resistance was evaluated. The fastening torque was 24350 Nm. The pin surface and the box surface were visually observed after each screw tightening and screwing back. By visual observation, the occurrence of seizure in the threaded part and the metal seal part was confirmed. The test was completed for the metal seal part due to seizure. If the threaded part had slight seizure and could be recovered by cleaning with a file, the seizure defect was repaired and the test was continued. The maximum number of repeated fastenings was 15. The evaluation index of seizure resistance was the maximum number of fastenings in which neither irreparable seizure occurred at the threaded portion nor seizure occurred at the metal seal portion.

[Table 3]

[0162]
　[High torque performance evaluation test] The
　torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'was measured using the pins and boxes of test numbers 1 to 12. Specifically, the screws were tightened at a tightening speed of 10 rpm and a tightening torque of 42.8 kN · m. The torque was measured at the time of screw tightening, and a torque chart as shown in FIG. 12 was created. Ts in FIG. 12 indicates shouldering torque. MTV in FIG. 12 represents a torque value at which the line segment L and the torque chart intersect. The line segment L is a straight line having the same slope as the slope of the linear region in the torque chart after shouldering, and the number of rotations is 0.2% higher than that of the linear region. Normally, Ty (yield torque) is used when measuring the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'. However, in this example, the yield torque (the boundary between the linear region and the non-linear region in the torque chart after shouldering) was unclear. Therefore, MTV was defined using the line segment L. The difference between MTV and Ts was defined as the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'of this embodiment. The high torque performance is based on the value of the torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'when the API standard dope is used instead of the lubricating film layer in Test No. 12 as a reference (100), and the relative torque-on-shoulder resistance ΔT'of this embodiment. Obtained as a value. The results are shown in Table 3.
[0163]
　[Evaluation Results] With
　reference to Tables 1 to 3, the compositions forming the lubricating film layer of the threaded joints for pipes of Test Nos. 1 to 10 had polyisobutylene. Therefore, even if screw tightening and screwing back were repeated 10 times, seizure did not occur and excellent seizure resistance was exhibited. Further, the high torque performance exceeded 100, showing excellent high torque performance.
[0164]
　The threaded pipe joints of Test Nos. 1 to 5 and Test Nos. 8 to 10 had a polyisobutylene content of 5 to 30%. Therefore, the high torque performance was further improved as compared with the threaded pipe joint of Test No. 6 (polyisobutylene content less than 5%). Furthermore, the number of times the joint could be fastened without seizure was larger than that of the threaded pipe joint of Test No. 7 (polyisobutylene content of more than 30%), and further excellent seizure resistance was exhibited.
[0165]
　On the other hand, the composition forming the lubricating film layer of the threaded pipe joint of Test No. 11 did not contain polyisobutylene. Therefore, the number of times they could be fastened without seizure and the high torque performance were low.
[0166]
