Research on the Controlling Technic of Conclution in If Steel

Combining with the production experience in steel making and rolling plant, the oxide inclusions of IF steel were investigated. In the operation process, the inclusions of IF steel are main Al2O3-TiN. They are granular and dispersed in the steel, and most of sizes are 1~5μm. In the inclusion center, the Al2O3 plays the role of TiN heterogeneous nucleation center. So reducing the Al2O3 inclusion is essential to stabilize the Ti content and strengthen the fixtation to C and N in steel. The quantity of Al2O3 inclusion was closely relation to the operation process. The Al2O3 inclusions can be significantly reduced by taking some measure.
