Nonmetallic inclusions are well known to influence product quality and process stability in
the production of steel. A process step that is very sensitive to the presence of nonmetallic …

Carbon-bonded alumina filters with special design for continuous casting were produced by
the replication technique using different coating procedures. The filters were investigated …

Nonmetallic inclusions (NMIs) detrimentally influence the steel properties. The application of
metal melt filter systems promises to reduce NMIs in steel. In the current work, NMIs are …

The evolution of non-metallic inclusions in liquid steel involves a series of processes,
including nucleation, growth by diffusion and Ostwald ripening, growth by collisions, floating …

The reaction between aluminum and the dissolved oxygen in liquid steel yields the
precipitation of alumina crystals with characteristic morphologies and size distributions …

The agglomeration behavior of Ce2O3 inclusions was observed in situ on a 20 pct Cr liquid
steel surface (ie, the argon gas/liquid steel interface) using high temperature confocal …

In this paper, the melt turbulence process was introduced to result in Fe-containing particle
agglomeration and achieve highly efficient Fe separation in Al-Si alloy melt. Microstructure …

Understanding the aggregation‐floating behavior of alumina inclusions, which is influenced
by the interface properties between inclusions and molten steel, is crucial to control the …

Since nonmetallic inclusions (NMIs) in steel cannot be completely avoided, a greater
understanding of their development and evolution during the steelmaking process is …

Metal melt filtration has become very popular over the past decades as it provides the
possibility of removing nonmetallic inclusions from metal melts and reduces the amount of …
