BACKGROUND
[2]
Of stainless steel, especially a ferritic stainless cold-rolled product has excellent high-temperature characteristics such as thermal expansion coefficient, the thermal fatigue property and resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Accordingly, ferritic stainless steel is widely used in automotive exhaust system components, household appliances, construction, household appliances, elevator.
[3]
In general, automobile exhaust system members are separated by a high-temperature member (Hot part) and the low-temperature member (Cold part) depending on the temperature of the exhaust gas. Auto Parts of the hot members is excellent in the manifold (Exhaust manifold), the converter (Converter) and a bellows (Bellows) etc., and use temperatures of these components are mainly high-temperature strength and high thermal fatigue and high-temperature salt corrosion property to 600 Should be. On the other hand, the member, such as a low-temperature member (Cold part) is a muffler for reducing the noise of the automobile, mainly the exhaust gas temperature to within 400 (muffler) is sets. Automotive exhaust system low-temperature member (Cold part) is stainless steel, such as the outer surface balcheong corrosion properties according to condensate corrosion property, used in winter claim glossitis generated by the car sulfur (S) component in the fuel reasons (or STS) 409, 409L, 439, 436L or it has been used materials such as Al-coated stainless steel 409.
[4]
For example, stainless steel is the best STS 409L material of the steel may, and the primarily used for sensitizing the prevention and workability temperatures below 700 ℃ excellent grades of C, to stabilize the N to Ti weld to approximately 11% Cr car even against the condensate component generated in the exhaust system is the most widely used type of steel because it has less corrosion resistance.
[5]
And in a corrosive environment requiring corrosion resistance, and use of Cr of 17% STS and the STS 439 436L steel containing Mo about 1% in the STS 439 steel, but has a problem that the material cost is raised parts.
[6]
Recent automotive production penetration in the case of countries such as China, Latin America, India, and rapidly growing, and the situation in the sulfur (S) content is extremely rich in comparison with other developed countries, while gasoline components. For example, Korea, in the case of Japanese, but defines a sulfur (S) content of the gasoline components to 10ppm or less, in the case of Chinese and defined by 500ppm or less, and has actually contain more sulfur (S) component in accordance with the area .
[7]
Sulfur of the gasoline component (S) component is a sulfate ion (SO of the condensed water components of automobile exhaust gas 4 2- , and concentrated to), pH is a strong sulfuric acid (H corrosion resistance of less than 2 2 SO 4 to form a) atmosphere, and thus the existing STS 409L is not possible to ensure corrosion resistance, gradually and the application of stainless steel material of the STS 439, and the chromium Cr component, such as 436L containing more than 17% or Mo system. However, in the case of the material, so the problem of rising increasingly resource prices, Cr, expensive or not containing added elements or the development of the stainless steel material with a small amount of only one pitting corrosion and resistance to condensate corrosion additive elements such as Mo is required .

[33]
Hereinafter will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, an embodiment of the present invention. The following examples will be presented to fully convey the scope of the invention to those of ordinary skill in the art. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein may be embodied in different forms. Figures may be somewhat exaggerated to express the size of the components, for clarity, not shown, and a portion not related to the description in order to clarify the invention.
[34]
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a ferritic stainless steel for automobile exhaust system is, percent, C parts by weight: not more than 0.01%, Si: 0.5 to 1.0%, Mn: 0.5% or less, P: 0.035% or less, S: 0.01 % or less, Cr: 11 to 18%, N: 0.013% or less, Ti 0.15 to 0.5%, Sb: 0.03 to 0.5%, including, and includes the remainder iron (Fe) and other unavoidable impurities.
[35]
Ti (C, N) C and N to carbonitrides present in the interstitial a storage-forming element is, the higher the C, N content of Ti (C, N) without cargo forming carbonitride, C, is present in dissolved N is the material when lowering the elongation and low temperature impact properties and, for a long time in the post-weld below 600 ℃ Cr 23 C 6 is a carbide is produced, since the mouth system unit expression occurs in amounts to at most 0.01%, N 0.01% for C it is preferable to control.
[36]
As well as, C + N When the content is high, a problem that if the high addition of Ti content of the rigid receive a significant amount of surface defects, such as seukaep (scab) in the inclusions increases, and further clogging the nozzle when play has occurred and employment C, because the elongation and impact properties by increasing N deterioration C + N content is preferably controlled to 0.02% or less.
[37]
Si is the higher the stability of the ferrite element is increased when the content of ferrite-phase-forming elements are added as a deoxidizing element. Si is to be improved and oxidation characteristics of the official potential increase of the content is increased. In the present invention, it is preferred that the addition of at least 0.5% and for the purpose of improving the oxidation characteristics of formula potential. When the amount of Si is increased to more than 1.0%, it is preferred that the stiffness that controls that does not exceed a maximum of 1.0% or more increases, and a problem occurs such as the surface defect of the Si inclusions.
[38]
Mn lowers the pitting resistance by forming precipitates such as MnS the higher the content. However, excessive reduction of Mn is preferably controlled to 0.5% or less because it puts the like increase in the purification cost.
[39]
P, S should preferably more, such as to form a grain boundary segregation and MnS seokmul water lowers the hot workability small as possible. However, excessive reduction is preferably controlled because it puts the like increase in the refining cost in the case of P is less than 0.035%, S 0.01%.
[40]
Cr is a necessary element for ensuring the corrosion resistance of stainless steel. If the content of Cr is low when the corrosion resistance decreases in the condensate atmosphere is too high content of it is, but the improvement in corrosion resistance such as high strength and elongation, impact resistance, due to degradation and production cost increases is preferable to control the content of 10 to 18% .
[41]
Ti is an element effective for preventing intergranular corrosion caused by immobilizing the C, N. However, since the problem of mouth expression system unit generating the corrosion resistance or the like generated by degradation Ti / (C + N) ratio decreases, welds, Ti is preferably controlled to at least 0.15%. However, the addition amount of Ti becomes too high, the rigidity of inclusions is increased to receive a significant amount of surface defects, such as seukaep (scab), and also because the problem of clogging the nozzles when playing phenomenon occurs that the content to 0.5% or less it is preferable to control.
[42]

May be the manufacture of ferritic stainless steel in accordance with one embodiment of the invention after a step of annealing the ferritic stainless steel containing the above composition, hot-rolled, hot-rolled and annealed, hot rolled pickling, cold rolling and finishing, it is usually such a manufacturing process, of STS can be a 409L manufacturing process.
[45]
The ferritic stainless steel is the stainless steel surface portion according to one embodiment of the present invention, there is thickening of Sb is more than three times compared to the base metal. For example, more preferably, the ferritic stainless steel can be Sb is concentrated more than seven times compared to the base metal on the surface of stainless steel parts. Sb is concentrated on a surface portion of stainless steel, which is relatively oxygen affinity, this oxide scale formed is strong compared to the other elements.
[46]
Retrieving the Sb is concentrated region in the surface portion the stainless steel, do not include Sb, as compared with ferritic stainless steel that is not concentrated in the surface portion, and the critical current density is reduced, and improved formula potential, and therefore, it is an object pitting corrosion and which can be obtained in the condensate corrosion.
[47]
Figure 1 is a graph showing the anodic polarization characteristics of the stainless steel automotive exhaust system without addition of stainless steel added with Sb to the present invention the condensate solution graph. Figure 2 is a graph showing the critical current density of the stainless steel in automotive exhaust system without addition of stainless steel added with Sb to the present invention the condensate solution graph.
[48]
One to test a positive polarization characteristic of the automotive exhaust system condensate solution, first with respect to Cr in a high purity ferritic stainless steel containing 11%, simulating an automotive exhaust system response side resin solution (sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ): 5,000ppm, sodium chloride (NaCl): 100ppm, pH: 3.0) was compared to a, stainless steel cathode polarization properties without addition of a stainless steel added with Sb in the steel of the present invention while maintaining the solution at a temperature of 30 ℃ comprising.
[49]
1, the value of the corrosion potential, regardless of the presence or absence of the addition of Sb in the 11% Cr stainless steel, has a corrosion potential values similar to each other to be about -500mV to -600mV. However, stainless steel, the addition of Sb has a potential value is a value lower than that of stainless steel without addition of Sb, a transition region from the active region passivation.
[50]
2, a stainless steel, the addition of Sb can be seen that the critical current density values in the active region has about 2 times lower value than that of stainless steel was not added Sb.
[51]
Further, as being the case of the corrosion current density in the passive range (passive holding current density), which represents a rather small passivation holding current density than stainless steel, the stainless steel by the addition of Sb is not added, this coating is more dense passive form It is determined. If more electrochemical anode Sb added from the polarization properties of stainless steel, Cl - ions, and SO 4 2- ions containing a large amount that pH was confirmed to have excellent corrosion resistance in an acidic atmosphere of the third degree.
[52]
For example, the ferritic stainless steel is critical corrosion current density in the automotive exhaust system condensate solution is 5.5mA / m 2 or less.
[53]
3 is a formula showing the characteristics of the stainless steel in automotive exhaust system without addition of stainless steel added with Sb to the present invention the condensate solution graph. 4 is a formula showing the potential of the stainless steel in automotive exhaust system without addition of stainless steel added with Sb to the present invention the condensate solution graph.
[54]
In order to evaluate the formula resistance, first Cr for while with respect to high purity ferritic stainless steel containing 11%, maintaining a solution containing 1% NaCl to a temperature 30 ℃, added steel and stainless addition of Sb in the present invention not compared the characteristics of stainless steel, not official.
[55]
3 and 4, a stainless steel, the addition of Sb in the 11% Cr stainless steel is found that has the formula potential value is about 13 to 36mV increase compared to stainless steel formula potential value is not added to Sb have.
[56]
For example, the ferritic stainless steel has the formula potential be greater than or equal to 120mV.
[57]
If more electrochemical anode stainless addition of Sb from the polarization characteristics Steel has been found that having a more excellent pitting resistance and corrosion resistance in corrosive conditions condensate containing sulfur content in a large amount. Here, the SO 4 2- ion and Cl% 1 - ion atmosphere of a pH of approximately 3 contained more than the corrosion conditions of a car muffler exhaust system materials in areas such as very high in China, so the 500ppm sulfur content of gasoline components strongly it reflects.
