[0002] Lightweight and long service life of engineering machinery are the development direction of the industry, and to meet this trend, the raw materials need to be continuously upgraded.

[0003] The traditional production process has the disadvantages of high cost and long production cycle. Therefore, a 1000 MPa grade or above dual-phase ultra-high strength steel is developed as an upgraded product for concrete mixer tank body and blade. The steel introduces Si and Al elements to narrow the austenite zone and promote the formation of ferrite, forming a new C-Mn-Si-Al composition system. Since this type of steel is in the peritectic steel category, the mold liquid level fluctuates greatly during continuous casting, and the billet is prone to crack defects. The steel contains a high content of Al, which increases the reactivity of the molten steel and the protective slag, resulting in deterioration of the performance of the protective slag during casting, and continuous casting cannot be achieved. The high Al steel has conflicting requirements for the performance of the protective slag compared to peritectic steel, and it is currently difficult to achieve continuous casting of high-aluminum peritectic steel, making continuous casting difficult.
