Abstract
Physico-chemical properties of mould powders and assumed casting parameters for the particular steel grade influence the way of lubricating the surface of the skin of concast billets formed in the mould, as well as heat transfer along its circumference. The paper presents research which main aim was to improve the surface quality of continuous casting round billets (Ø 170 mm) cast from C45 steel. Improvement of the surface quality can be obtained by designing the chemical composition of mould powder for local casting conditions and the technical and technological parameters of CC equipment. Based on the experimental casting from C45 medium carbon steel it was found that there are relationships between the physicochemical properties of mould powder and intensity of skin lubrication and heat transmission to the mould wall.
