This collaborative project involving Sidenor I+D (Spain) and CSM (Italy) is aimed at the development of a new mould geometry for a better control of the dendritic structure of the initial frozen shell in the continuous casting of billets. The work carried out by Sidenor I+D tries to show the inf...
The project has examined the formation of scale during direct casting of steel strip in a collaboration of MPI, IRSID, TKS and Corus UK. Scale grown in casting under air and the corresponding yield losses have been evaluated. Systems to prevent oxygen access to the strip surface have been develo...
