Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0141804A1] 1. Process for the manufacture of a strain-hardening austenitic manganese steel known per se, with a break elongation between 10 % and 80 % measured according to L = 5 d to L = 10 d with a content in % by weight of carbon 0.7 to 1.7, manganese 5.0 to 18.0 chromium 0 to 3.0, nickel 0 to 4.0, molybdenum 0 to 2.5, silicon 0.1 to 0.9, possibly zirkonium 0.01 to 0.05 phosphorus max. 0.1, possibly to 0.05 % aluminium, provided that the carbon manganese ration is between 1 : 4 and : 14 and the content of micro-alloy elements in % by weight titanium more than 0.05 to 0.09, vanadium 0 to 0.5, the rest iron and melt-dependent contaminants ; whereby in an electric furnace a charge is melted, after which calcareous slag-forming additives are added to the liquid melt, the desired composition is adjusted and brought to a tapping temperature of 1450 to 1600 degrees C, de-oxidised with an element having an affinity for oxygen and tapped into the pouring ladle, and in the pouring ladle the content of micro-alloy elements is adjusted, whereby the melt is poured at a temperature between 1420 and 1520 degrees C, characterized in that the addition of manganese or of manganese alloy takes place in two steps whereby the second addition of 5 to 25 % by weight of the total addition of manganese or manganese alloy takes place at a temperature of the melt below 1520 degrees C, and the melting temperature s kept below this temperature up to pouring.
