Abstract
"The present paper provides an overview on design and development of a novel product, used as lubricant in the open casting process of steel. This new product is composed of a solid-liquid dispersion of specifically formulated continuous casting powder in highly customized synthetic oil and combines the performance advantages of casting powder with the easy handling properties of oil. As usually experienced with traditional casting powders, the product has been tailored to customer conditions, such as steel grades, casting sections and speeds by adapting the solid part of the formulation. Several benefits have been achieved by implementing different versions of this product, these benefits are the result of both an improved lubrication and heat extraction. Furthermore a reduced sparkling phenomena have been observed. An overview of plant operations is described, keeping a close eye on dosing and mold feeding of this material. "
