Abstract

The direct relationship between the total oxygen content of the steelor the slag composition and the rate of surface defects on the finalproducts has been clearly established by many previous studies.The paper describes the appropriate process parameters to preventthe re-oxidation of the molten steel and clogging of the submergedentry nozzles, two essential factors to meet the product cleannessrequirements: quantification of re-oxidation, control of re-oxidationby slags, air or refractories, control of Ar injection, mechanisms andways to reduce CC nozzle clogging.
