Abstract

The rapid development of the large steel structure brings a great opportunity for steelmaking industry. The steel plates not only have the strength and toughness but also can withstand the high energy input welding. Using the magnesium oxide of high melting-point and high stability to pin the grain boundaries is an effective method to improve the welding performance of the structure steel. The effect of magnesium addition on the morphology and composition of the inclusions in the cast microstructure of HSLA steel was analyzed. The results show that the distribution of the inclusions is more dense and uniform with respect to the raw steel, and the size of the inclusions is smaller than the ones in the raw steel after adding magnesium elements. Adding magnesium element in different amounts can lead to the large difference in the composition of the inclusions. The main components of the inclusions formed are magnesium oxides and the composite inclusions, as well as the oxides, sulfides and composite inclusions of the other metallic elements. And most magnesium inclusions are spherical and ellipsoidal.
