Effect of Secondary Cooling on Non-Oriented Electrical Steel Strips Produced by Twin-Roll Casting Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

Effect of secondary cooling on non-oriented electrical steel strips was investigated. The 2.0 mm thick cast strips contain two compositions were produced by twin-roll casting process, cooled in the air or cooled by spraying water. The microstructure was observed by optical microscopy, and EBSD was used to characterize the texture of the cast strips. The results showed that air-cooling cast strips have uniform and equiaxed grains with average size of 250 μm. The microstructure of the water-spraying cast strips compose of most equiaxed grains and a small number of abnormal big grains. At the same time, the secondary cooling rate mildly affects the cast texture strength but has no influence on the texture type.
