Including Lubricating Of Mold Surface Patents (Class 164/472)
  • Continuous casting method and mold flux powders
    Patent number: 4312400
    Abstract: This invention relates to mold flux powders for the continuous casting of steel. The mold flux powders comprise a plurality of sequential melting systems forming successive melts each of which assimilates the ingredients of the next system into the melt. In this way, the desired fluidity is achieved in the mold flux at a rate required by the particular continuous casting process in which the flux is being used without resorting to an excessively low melting flux. At least one of the systems comprises a finely-divided glass.
