摘要: 采用扫描电镜、能谱仪、单向拉伸试验等手段,研究了稀土Ce-Y混合添加对51CrV4弹簧钢夹杂物、显微组织和力学性能的影响。结果表明,稀土Ce-Y混合添加可以将钢中的MnS和Al2O3夹杂物改性成细小、球状的稀土夹杂物。经850 ℃淬火后,稀土添加使弹簧钢的奥氏体晶粒、马氏体块和板条尺寸分别由11.5、5.2和0.80 μm下降至7.1、4.1和0.72 μm。经420~500 ℃回火后,钢中渗碳体由长条状转变为短棒状,最后变为球状。随回火温度的升高,试验钢的强度逐渐下降,塑性逐渐升高。在450 ℃回火时,稀土的添加使渗碳体片层厚度下降26.21%,尺寸更小,分布更为弥散,此时钢的屈服强度、抗拉强度和断后伸长率分别提升至1507 MPa、1616 MPa和10.83%,力学性能最佳。

Abstract: Effect of Ce-Y rare earth (RE) co-addition on inclusions, microstructure, and mechanical properties of 51CrV4 spring steel was investigated by using scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and uniaxial tensile testing. The results show that Ce-Y co-addition transforms MnS and Al2O3 inclusions in the steel into fine, spherical RE inclusions. After quenching at 850 ℃, the RE addition refines the prior austenite grain size, martensite block size, and lath width from 11.5, 5.2 and 0.80 μm to 7.1, 4.1 and 0.72 μm, respectively. During tempering at 420-500 ℃, the cementite in the steel evolves from elongated rod to short rod and finally to spheroid. With tempering temperature increasing, the strength of the steel gradually decreases while its plasticity increases. When tempered at 450 ℃, the RE addition reduces lamellar thickness of cementite by 26.21%, resulting in finer size and more dispersed distribution. Consequently, the steel achieves its optimal mechanical properties, with yield strength, tensile strength and elongation after fracture reaching 1507 MPa, 1616 MPa and 10.83%, respectively.
