Abstract
The behavior of nitrogen and titanium nitrides during remelting is examined. The removal of nitrogen from the metal is associated with the transfer of titanium nitrides to the slag, a marked influence on the final context of nitrogen in the metal being effected by the nitride oxidation reaction. The solubility of titanium nitride in slags was investigated. Titanium nitrides dissolve in magnesial slags. The refining capacity of a magnesial slag was tested on an A-550 laboratory apparatus during the remelting of Kh18N10T steel. The use of magnesial fluxes reduces the contamination of the steel by nitride inclusions by roughly half as compared with remelting using ANF-6 flux.
