Ultra-low carbon steel wire rod for electric conduction and production method thereof

2013 
The invention provides an ultra-low carbon steel wire rod for electric conduction and a production method thereof. The ultra-low carbon steel wire rod for electric conduction comprises the following chemical compositions: 0.002-0.005% of C, 0.004-0.010% of Si, 0.05-0.15% of Mn, less than or equal to 0.015% of P, less than or equal to 0.010% of S, 0.0050-0.0080% of total oxygen, and less than or equal to 0.0050% of total aluminum. The carbon content of smelted steel tapped from a converter is less than or equal to 0.040%, and the oxygen content of molten steel is 0.060-0.070%; natural decarburization is performed for 5-8 minutes in the first stage of RH refining; in the second stage of RH refining, after the carbon content is reduced to below 0.0030%, oxygen blowing is performed for 15-20 minutes, and a low-carbon or carbon-free steel ladle is adopted for smelting; the superheat degree of molten steel of a continuous casting tundish is less than or equal to 30 DEG C, the electromagnetic stirring current is greater than or equal to 400A, and the pulling rate is 0.5-0.7 m/min; the temperature of an entry double-module is 880-900 DEG C, the spinning temperature is 900-920 DEG C, the roller-bed speed is 0.2-0.4 m/s, and fans are completely closed. The electric conductivity of the wire rod disclosed by the invention is greater than or equal to 15%, the tensile strength is less than or equal to 300 MPa, and the area reduction index is greater than or equal to 80%, and the wire rod can partially replace copper conducting materials, thereby reducing the production cost.
