Objectif The ability of an as-cast steel to deform at high temperature supporting the stresses and strains inherent in the continuous casting process, during solidification and cooling of the metal, depends on the solidification structure and segregation in the most highly stressed zones. Some important aspects remain to be investigated regarding the mutual interactions between steel composition and the segregating elements present as impurities.The objectives of the proposed research are:- definition of the influence of alloy elements and solidification structure (nature and morphology of primary phases) on the segregation of impurity elements;- determination of the combined effect of the solidification structure and segregation on the high temperature mechanical properties of continuously cast structural and special steels;- acquisition of quantitative information to be used as input data in models for predicting the hot cracking susceptibility of continuously cast steels.
