At present, a trace amount of alloying elements such as Nb, V, ti and the like are added into steel, the microalloy elements can be combined with C, N in the steel to generate carbonitride, the carbonitride can prevent austenite grains from growing up, and the tiny dispersed carbonitride can play a second-phase strengthening role, so that steel with high strength, high toughness and excellent welding performance is obtained, and therefore, the microalloy elements are widely applied to various fields such as engineering machinery, railway vehicles, bridge construction, pressure vessels and the like.
However, in the continuous casting process, the fine carbonitrides in the microalloyed steel can pin grain boundaries, solid-solution Nb atoms have strong dragging effect on the grain boundaries and dislocation, the occurrence of dynamic recrystallization is restrained, a large amount of reticular along-grain ferrite is easily generated, and the strength of the grain boundaries is reduced. When the microalloy steel casting blank passes through the straightening section in continuous casting, microcracks are formed along the ferrite of the lower strength under the action of straightening stress, and the microcracks are expanded into macrocracks along the grain boundary, so that the surface cracks of the casting blank, in particular to the transverse cracks of the corners, are finally formed. The prior art can not eliminate the generation of transverse cracks at the corners of the casting blank, and can only reduce the influence by continuous casting chamfer and rolling trimming, thereby reducing the yield of steel. Therefore, in order to fundamentally solve the surface quality problem of microalloyed steel in the continuous casting process, it is necessary to improve ferrite morphology in the cast slab structure to suppress formation of ferrite along the crystal, and a new method for regulating ferrite morphology in the cast slab structure is developed.

Exemplary inclusions in a cast slab according to an embodiment of the present invention are shown in fig. 1, and exemplary inclusions in a cast slab according to a comparative example of the present invention are shown in fig. 2. The inclusions in the microalloy steel are formed by coarse Al with edges and corners by adopting the method of the invention 2 O 3 Modification of MnS composite inclusions into small-sized ellipsoids-shaped Ce 2 O 2 S rare earth inclusion.
The examples and comparative examples of the present invention were tested for hot stretching by a Gleeble1500 thermal simulator. The specific process is as follows: 1) Sampling at 1/4 thickness of a casting blank, and processing into a high-temperature hot tensile sample with phi 10mm multiplied by 120mm and threads at two ends; 2) The high-temperature thermal tensile test was performed under the protection of argon, the sample was heated to 1250℃at a heating rate of 10℃per second, kept for 3 minutes to eliminate the temperature gradient and to make the components uniform, then cooled to the tensile temperature (650℃to 1050℃at an interval of 50 ℃) at a cooling rate of 3℃per second, kept for 30 seconds, and then heated at 1X 10 -3 Breaking the sample at the deformation rate of/s, and immediately spraying water to the fracture to cool to room temperature after breaking; 3) The reduction of area of each sample was calculated and the microstructure near the fracture was analyzed.
