Abstract

A technology has been proposed for obtaining rolled plates with the use of calcium carbide instead of vacuum degassing. The technology makes it possible to obtain steel that is equivalent to vacuum-degassed steel with respect to the composition and quantity of nonmetallic inclusions and the quality of the finished plates. It is shown that the use of calcium carbide reduces the content of nonmetallic inclusions by a factor of roughly 1.5 compared to use of the standard technology without vacuum degassing. The percentage of hot-rolled plates rejected for defects detected in ultrasonic tests is also decreased.
