Abstract:Inclusions control is an important topic in the research field of clean steel, which is vital to the quality of steel and product performance. In recent years, the research on inclusion expands from the traditional control of refining and continuous casting processes to the evolution study of re-heating, hot rolling and other hot working processes. In order to fully understand the evolution of inclusions during heating process and obtain the control strategy of inclusions, the evolution researches of MnS, TiN, and oxide in steel during the heating process at home and abroad was reviewed, the changes of morphology, composition, and size of inclusions, as well as the inclusions evolution mechanisms during the heating process was summarized, the application of inclusions evolution in oxide metallurgy technology was prospected, in order to provide a reference for the inclusions control research in the hot working process and the reasonable adjustment of the hot working technology.
