A Kinetic Model for Modification of MgAl2O4 Spinel Inclusions During Calcium Treatment in the Ladle Furnace
Abstract
A common approach in the processing of Al-killed steels is the modification of alumina inclusions by calcium treatment. A model for this process has already been developed by the current authors and validated by means of plant data. Often, magnesium aluminate spinels are also present and transformed to magnesium calcium aluminate inclusions during calcium treatment. In the current study, a fundamental kinetic model is proposed for modification …
