Abstract

The evolution mechanisms of Al2O3-SiO2 system inclusion in 13Cr stainless steel with CaO-SiO2-Al2O3 top slag were investigated from thermodynamic ,kinetic as well as experimental work.

From theoretical aspect: the stability diagrams of Ca-Si-Al-O and Mg-Al-O were obtained, From experimentally aspect: Increasing Al2O3 content in slag would low slag melting temperature and the usage of CaF2. On the condition of relatively high Al2O3 in slag, the top slag would have a good kinetic condition. But excessive high Al2O3 in slag would increase total oxygen in stainless steel and cause a more complex series of slag-steel-inclusions reactions. Meanwhile, it is found that high basicity slag has good de-oxidation ability and it also accelerates the transition from high Al2O3 inclusions to low melt point CaO-Al2O3-SiO2-MgO system inclusions. But excessive high basicity would have no effect on T.O and leads high content of [Al], [Mg] in liquid iron and which would promote the MgO-Al2O3 inclusions.
