Viscosity is very important for the high carbon steel for thin slab continuous casting, in this research the orthogonal experiment has been carried out, and the results showed that: the effect for the flux viscosity form strong to weak is: R>F>BaO>Na2O>MgO. and in the experiment range, with the R increasing, when the R is between 0.80 and 0.90, the flux viscosity is diminished slowly; but when the R is bigger than 0.90, the flux viscosity is diminished sharply; Na2O,MgO and F- could decrease the flux viscosity; BaO could lower the melting temperature of the flux to decrease the flux viscosity.

Crystallization temperature is very important for the high carbon steel for thin slab continuous casting, in this research the orthogonal experiment has been carried out, and the results showed that: the effect for the flux crystallization temperature form strong to weak is: F>Na2O>R>BaO>MgO. In the experiment range, with the R, Na2O, MgO and F- content increasing, the flux crystallization temperature would be higher, but for the complicated infect of the Na2O and F-, there are some flucuations for the flux crystallization temperature, but for the BaO content increasing, the crystallization temperature of the flux would be decreasing slowly.

Effective Role

In order to reduce fluorine pollution, partial fluoride could be replaced by B2O3 in mould flux. The effects of B2O3 on properties of low fluoride content mould flux for thin slab continuous casting were studied. The properties included melting temperature, viscous characteristics, fluidity, surface tension and Al2O3 inclusion adsorption. The results showed that with the increase of B2O3 content, melting temperature, viscosity, viscous activation energy and surface tension of mould flux decreased obviously, fluidity increased, and Al2O3 inclusion adsorption of mould flux changed little. The B2O3 could play effective role when its content was less than 6%. The results would play a guiding role in designing of low fluoride content mould flux for thin slab continuous casting.

Al2o3 Inclusion

Using industrial material and synthetic test instrument for the physical characteristics of slag, the effects of NaF on melting temperature, viscosity, fluidity, surface tension and Al2O3 inclusion adsorption of mould flux for thin slab continuous casting were studied. The results showed that with the increase of NaF content, melting temperature, viscosity and surface tension decreased obviously, and fluidity and Al2O3 inclusion adsorption increased. The effects of basicity on properties should be taken into account. NaF could play effective role when its content was less than 9%. The results would play a guiding role in designing of mould flux for thin slab continuous casting.

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.

Initial Solidification

AbstractThe surface quality of slabs is closely related with the initial solidification at very first seconds of molten steel near meniscus in mold during continuous casting. The solidification, structure, and free deformation for given steels have been investigated in droplet experiments by aid of Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope. It is observed that the appearances of solidified shells for high carbon steels and some hyper-peritectic steels with high carbon content show lamellar, while that for other steels show spherical. Convex is formed along the chilling direction for most steels, besides some occasions that concave is formed for high carbon steel at times. The deformation degree decreases gradually in order of hypo-peritectic steel, ultra-low carbon steel, hyper-peritectic steel, low carbon steel, and high carbon steel, which is consistent with the solidification shrinkage in macroscope during continuous casting. Additionally, the microstructure of solidified shell of hypo-peritectic steel is bainite, while that of hyper-peritectic steel is martensite.
