Optimum Composition of CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-MgO Slag for Spring Steel Deoxidized by Si and Mn in Production
The relations between plasticity of inclusions and contents of oxygen, aluminum, and sulfur in molten steel were overall discussed by thermodynamics and FactSage software. Then, the optimum compositions of slag were obtained and the activities of components of refining slag system were analyzed. Fin...

Zusammenfassung: | The relations between plasticity of inclusions and contents of oxygen, aluminum, and sulfur in molten steel were overall discussed by thermodynamics and FactSage software. Then, the optimum compositions of slag were obtained and the activities of components of refining slag system were analyzed. Finally, experiments were carried out based on the results of calculation. According to the relations, it could achieve better effect to improve basicity
