The droplet volumes were set to be 2 mm × 2 mm ×2 mm (TM) and 5 mm ×5 mm× 5 mm (FM), respectively. The microstructure of rapidly solidified steel droplets (cooled in silicon oil) with P and both B and P addition was observed. The microstructures of B-bearing droplet samples were more uniform than those of B-free ones, for both TM and FM samples. The distribution of C and P along the diameter of each sample was detected. The well-distribution of C and P was detected in B-bearing droplet samples. So it could be deduced that B was also well distributed in the steels. It was B atoms that promoted the well-distribution of C and P, which further improved the uniformity of microstructure under the condition of rapid solidification. The micro-hardness of B- bearing samples was higher than that of B-free samples, and the hardening mechanism was discussed in detail.展开更多

To improve the level of recycling converter off-gas in steel plants, a novel approach to the recycle of CO2 separated from converter off-gas or other off-gas for the green slag splashing technique was developed, and the CO2 equilibrium conversion ratio of the green CO2 slag splashing under different technological conditions was calculated by the program of enthalpy (H), entropy (S), and heat capacity (C), i.e. HSC software. Furthermore, the experiments of CO2 injected into molten converter slag were carried out, and the influencing factors of the green slag splashing technique using CO2 were analyzed. The experimental results showed that the carbon content for smooth slag splashing using COs was about 4.0%.展开更多
