Some billets were rolled directly off the casting machine and some cooled to ambient temperature, then reheated to rolling temperature. On direct rolled steels, the number of defects increases with increasing aluminium content, while virtually no defects are found on steel rolled after reheating. By increasing the aluminium content, the solidification structure of steel is highly modified and a columnar structure obtained over the entire section of the billet. It was shown by chemical analysis and fracture examination that the increased hot shortness is not related to the effect of AIN. It is concluded that the hot shortness is related to the effect of aluminium on the solidification structure.MST/761Read More
