Boron (B) removal by slag refining using CaO–SiO2–CaCl2 was investigated in metallurgical-grade silicon (MG-Si) and 75 wt% Si–Sn alloy. Experiments were conducted at 1500 °C for 15 min. The microstructure was characterized before and after refining. The effects of acid leaching, basicity, and slag/Si mass ratio on B removal were investigated. Experimental results showed that acid leaching had no effect on B removal from MG-Si but had a clear effect on the refined Si–Sn alloy after slag refining. The final B concentration was highly affected by the CaO/SiO2 mass ratio with minimum value, where the content of B was reduced from 18.36 ppmw to 5.5 ppmw at the CaO/SiO2 = 1.2 for MG-Si slag refining and from 18.36 ppmw to 3.7 ppmw at CaO/SiO2 = 1.5 for 75 wt% Si–Sn alloy. Increasing the slag mass ratio by 2:1 mass ratio also increased B removal efficiency by approximately 15–20% more than an increase by 1:1.

AbstractIn order to avoid the formation of crack initiation sites, inclusions in high-carbon steel for saw wire are strictly required to have excellent deformability. However, it is hard to achieve this goal with only conventional inclusion softening art, such as Si-Mn deoxidation and low basicity top slag refining. Therefore, a new method should be put forward to enhance the deformability of inclusions. Low melting temperature inclusions are widely considered to have good deformability, hence, adding K (potassium) into inclusions may become a potential new method to better enhance the deformability of inclusions due to the pronounced effect of K2O on lowering the melting temperature of inclusions. In the present study, the influences of Fe/K2CO3 (weight ratio), K2CO3 addition amount and reaction time on inclusions were investigated by using a graphite tube resistance furnace. Through this study, a solution to adding K into inclusions effectively by K2CO3 addition was developed and the melting temperature of inclusions was significantly reduced. In addition, the reaction mechanism between K2CO3/slag/steel/inclusion was deduced and the relation between deformability and crystallinity of inclusions was also briefly discussed.

The interfacial reactions between impurities (Al and Ti) and slag onset of Si purification by 51 mol% SiO2–34 mol% CaO–15 mol% MgO slag addition were studied to enhance impurity removal efficiency from Si. The Al distribution behavior at the Si/Slag interface was investigated; a short reaction time (10 s) resulted in the formation of successive SiO2–CaO–MgO–Al2O3 layers in the slag with a thickness of 10 µm; increasing the reaction time (60 s) resulted in the entire ternary slag being changed into SiO2–CaO–MgO–Al2O3 quaternary slag due to the diffusion of Al2O3. It was shown that the highest impurity removal rate of Al could be achieved at the onset of the slag refining process. Based on the Ti distribution at the Si/slag interface, the slag refinement with 51 mol% SiO2–34 mol% CaO–15 mol% MgO had no effect on Ti removal.

To accurately control the Si content and ensure the function of slag refining in high aluminum steel, the direction and limits of reduction reaction for SiO2 were analyzed based on the thermodynamics. In addition, the thermodynamic prediction model of multi-element slag was studied. Then, a slag activity prediction model was established based on the coexistence theory. Using the model, the suitable ladle slag composition for high aluminum steel was calculated.
