In order to solve the problem of mold powder entrapment which is one of the affecting factors on faint-sliver defect in IF cold-rolled steel sheet in casting process, continuous casting process is optimized. Based on the analysis of the defect, the composition of mold powder is optimized. Otherwise, surface tension and viscosity of mold powder are raised. With theses countermeasures, mold powder entrapment and casting subcutaneous slag is decreased obviously. In addition, the rate of faint-sliver defect in cold-rolled IF steel sheet has been reduced from 5.21% to below 1.0%.
