Conclusions
Work was done on studying the service of refractories in continuous casting of stainless steel.
It was established that refractories produced by domestic industry are suitable for this process and make it possible to obtain continuously cast billets in accordance with the requirements of TU 14-105-469-83. Gas protection of the stream of metal causes additional refining of the metal of nonmetallic inclusions and makes it possible to increase the quality of the cast billet.
Stream treatment of the metal with inert gas makes it possible to significantly reduce encrustation of the nozzle channel with products of interaction of the molten metal with the refractory material of the ladle nozzle.
