Resumo
In the current study, different process conditions with and without Calcium were applied to compare and investigate the steel cleanliness in terms of composition, quantity and size of non-metallic inclusions during refining process and continuous casting in Ternium Brazil. The study was conducted in two different production routes and inclusions were characterized through ASTM E45 and SEM/EDS after the steel lamination. The main task was to evaluate inclusionary results for heats treated in AHF (Aluminium Heating Furnace – similar CAS-OB) with Ca and RH (Ruhrstahl Heraeus) degasser without Ca on different process practices in order to have good castability, properties and application for the final product. The results showed that for Ca-treat steels in AHF process route, as expected, inclusions were mostly Ca-aluminates globular ones in bigger size than compared with Al-inclusions found at RH process from which the best results showed smaller quantity of inclusions and good castability performance
