Abstract

The study of the secondary dephosphorization processes of low-carbon steel semi-product was made. The treatment of metal by slag-forming mixture CaO-FeO-CaF2 was carried out when tapping in the ladle. The possibility of obtaining a dephosphorization degree of about 50-60% at the initial phosphorus content in metal of 0.050-0.060% and a mixture flow of 3% by weight of metal was found. The optimum composition of dephosphorization slag was established: CaO / FeO = 3.5-4.0, (CaO) ≈ 70-75%, (FeO) ≈ 20%. The paper contains information about the perspectives of powder dephosphorization mixture blowing to increase a degree of metal dephosphorization up to 80-90% and achieve [P]final ≤ 0.005%.

Keywords
