Abstract

The formation of Mg-Al-Ti-O complex inclusions in steel was investigated by laboratory experiments and thermodynamic calculation. The composition evolutions of Mg-Al-Ti-O inclusions in steel with different contents of [Al], [Mg], and [Ti] were discussed. Mg-Al-Ti-O complex inclusion with high TiO x content was liquid at 1873 K (1600 °C), indicating MgAl2O4 spinel inclusions can be modified to low melting temperature ones by combining TiO x component. The stability diagram of Al-Mg-Ti-O system inclusions in the molten steel at 1873 K (1600 °C) was calculated, considering many kinds of oxide inclusions such as MgO, Al2O3, TiO x , MgTi2O4, MgAl2O4, Al2TiO5, and liquid inclusion. The thermodynamic calculations are in good agreement with experimental results, which can predict the formation of Al-Mg-Ti-O complex inclusions in molten steel with a large concentration range of [Al], [Mg], and [Ti].
