Why Ca31Si60 Is Used for Clean Steel
In clean steel production, controlling non-metallic inclusions is critical.
Typical issues include:
- alumina inclusions (Al₂O₃)
- clogging in continuous casting nozzles
- poor steel fluidity
- surface defects in final products
Ca31Si60 helps modify these inclusions into low-melting-point calcium aluminates, which are:
- more fluid
- less likely to accumulate
- easier to remove
👉 This significantly improves steel cleanliness and casting stability.
How Ca31Si60 Works in Steelmaking
During secondary refining (LF / RH processes), Ca31Si60 reacts with oxygen and sulfur in molten steel.
Inclusion Modification
Transforms solid alumina inclusions into liquid calcium aluminate.
Deoxidation Effect
Silicon contributes to deoxidation, reducing oxygen content.
Nozzle Protection
Modified inclusions reduce adhesion and prevent clogging during continuous casting.
👉 The combined Ca + Si effect makes this grade highly effective for clean steel processes.
