ժҪ The broadening of slab was investigated on the basis of several industrial manufactures of continuous casting. The results show that slab broadening commonly exists in the process of continuous casting. It is found that there are few reports on it until now. In order to find out the reasons of slab broadening, we checked the effect of change of mold size, excepting technological parameters, conditions of soft reduction, and contraction of roll gap on slab broadening. Our examinations exclude the possibility of change of mold size, excepting technological parameters to be the causes of broadening of slab. The broadening of slab probably results from the static pressure of molten steel and the force from driving rolls. At the same time, online observations on three kinds of steel in the process of continuous casting reveal that the average objective ratio of slab broadening ranges from 1.27 % to 3.00 %, and even arrives at 4.4 %. In addition, the width of mold and formulas of calculating the broadening of slab was deduced.
