Abstract
To improve the cleanliness of oriented silicon steel, industrial experiments are performed under different refining slag composition conditions. The results show that the use of medium-basicity refining slag (w(CaO)/w(SiO2) = 2.3–2.6, w(CaO)/w(Al2O3) = 2.3–2.6) results in higher steel cleanliness with lower Al2O3 volume fraction, and smaller inclusions. In addition, the thermodynamic equilibrium between the oriented silicon steel slag and the molten steel is investigated at a temperature of 1873 K (1600 °C) to understand the effect of different slag compositions on the oxygen content and Al2O3 absorption capacity. Furthermore, a mathematical model is introduced to describe the behavior of inclusions at the steel–slag interface as well as to predict the removal of oxide inclusions during the slag-refining process. The experimental and predicted results for inclusion removal after slag refining are in good agreement.
期刊介绍:
steel research international is a journal providing a forum for the publication of high-quality manuscripts in areas ranging from process metallurgy and metal forming to materials engineering as well as process control and testing. The emphasis is on steel and on materials involved in steelmaking and the processing of steel, such as refractories and slags.
steel research international welcomes manuscripts describing basic scientific research as well as industrial research. The journal received a further increased, record-high Impact Factor of 1.522 (2018 Journal Impact Factor, Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2019)).
The journal was formerly well known as "Archiv für das Eisenhüttenwesen" and "steel research"; with effect from January 1, 2006, the former "Scandinavian Journal of Metallurgy" merged with Steel Research International.
Hot Topics:
-Steels for Automotive Applications
-High-strength Steels
-Sustainable steelmaking
-Interstitially Alloyed Steels
-Electromagnetic Processing of Metals
