Abstract：To study the morphology,distribution,and category of inclusions on the surface of 409L stainless steel continuous casting billets,samples were taken and ground 1 mm each time before conducting inclusion detection.The detection results were compared and analyzed.It was found that the distribution of inclusions is characterized by randomness,and the size is mainly concentrated in 2-5 μm.The spatial distribution shows a decreasing number of inclusions with increasing depth,with fewer inclusions at the middle position compared to the two ends,and a slightly higher number of inclusions on the inner arc side than that on the outer arc side.The surface inclusions of the continuous casting slab are mainly 12CaO-7Al2O3 and a certain proportion of oxides,as well as a small amount of other types of inclusions.
