Dissolution Behavior of Different Inclusions in High Al Steel Reacted with Refining Slags
Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>·TiN, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>·MgO, and CaO·2Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> are four different types of inclusions in high Al steels. To improve the...

Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>·TiN, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>·MgO, and CaO·2Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> are four different types of inclusions in high Al steels.

The dissolution behavior of Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>·TiN, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>·MgO, and CaO·2Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> in CaO-SiO<sub>2</sub>-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-MgO slags, as well as the steel-slag reaction, was investigated using laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) and high-temperature furnace experiments, and thermodynamic calculations for the inclusion in steel were carried out by FactSage 7.1. The results showed that Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>·TiN was observed to be completely different from the other oxides.
