چکیده مقاله:

In the present work, deoxidation and refining of 316LVM steel (Low carbon Vacuum Melted) during the vacuum induction melting process was studied. This grade of stainless steel is one of the most important materials in medical applications. Vacuum deoxidation by carbon is the first stage of 316LVM stainless steel production process. In this stage, aluminum must be absent to avoid killing the C-O reaction. Deoxidation product in the VIM process is in gaseous state which is tapped by vacuum pump system. For this reason, vacuum deoxidation by carbon is the best method for refining 316LVM steel. Vacuum induction melting has no significant effects on reduction of sulfur and phosphorus. After deoxidation in vacuum by carbon, addition of Al+Ca/Si is the best way for reducing the oxygen and increasing the steel cleanness.

EFFECTS OF ELECTRO-SLAG REMELTING PROCESS (ESR) ON MACROSTRUCTURE AND REFINEMENT OF A MEDICAL GRADE OF STAINLESS STEEL

This study is focused on the effects of electroslag remelting by prefused slag (CaO, Al2O3, and CaF2) on macrostructure and reduction of inclusions in the medical grad of 316LC (316LVM) stainless steel. Results showed that in order to obtain uniform ingot structures during electroslag remelting, the shape and depth of the molten pool should be carefully controlled. High melting rates lead to de...
