Abstract
The goal is to produce hot-rolled dual-phase steel of strength class DP 450–600 at OAO Novolipetskii Metallurgicheskii Kombinat (NLMK). The steel’s final structure and properties is greatly affected by single-stage strip cooling on the output roller conveyer of the 2000 continuous broad-strip mill. The influence of the hot-rolling parameters on the structure and mechanical properties of the hot-rolled SPRC440R steel from which cold-rolled dual-phase steel is produced at OAO NLMK is studied in the laboratory. The temperatures and rates for accelerated cooling on the output roller conveyer of the 2000 continuous broad-strip mill at OAO NLMK are calculated by means of a mathematical model. The laboratory data and simulation results are used in developing trial conditions for industrial rolling. Recommendations are made regarding the production of hot-rolled dual-phase steel corresponding to strength class DP 450–600.
