Problems solved by technology

The problem of rare earth alloying in the ladle refining process is that if the timing of rare earth addition is too early, the rare earth will form a large number of oxides or sulfides, etc., and the yield of rare earth is low; if the timing of addition is too late, the inclusions generated by rare earth are difficult to float and remove. Uneven distribution in steel
[0004] The main problems of using slab continuous casting to produce rare earth-containing steel are difficult to control the degree of superheat, low casting speed, and poor quality of the surface and center of the slab.
The fluidity of molten steel is poor. When the pouring temperature is too low, the mold nozzle will be frozen and the pouring will be interrupted, which is not conducive to the floating of inclusions. Segregation and porosity
It is difficult to control parameters such as casting speed, mold nozzle insertion depth, and secondary cooling intensity; in addition, it is difficult to alloy rare earths, which leads to difficulties in continuous casting of rare earth-containing steel slabs, and it is difficult to achieve continuous casting in multiple furnaces

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a production method for continuous casting of steel slabs containing rare earth elements, and belongs to the technical field of steel smelting. Background technique [0002] In addition to deoxidation, desulfurization and control of sulfide form in steel, rare earth (Re) has microalloying and dispersion strengthening effects. It can improve the as-cast structure and inhibit grain growth, thereby improving the impact toughness of steel, improving thermoplasticity, oxidation resistance, etc. Rare earths can interact with low-melting-point impurities such as phosphorus, arsenic, tin, antimony, bismuth, and lead in steel to form high-melting-point compounds and inhibit the segregation of these impurities on grain boundaries. Rare earth elements have low melting points and active chemical properties, so the control of the amount of rare earth elements is particularly critical. [0003] Rare earth has a strong affinity with oxygen,...
