The inclusions evolution behavior in the continuous casting slab, rolled plates, and simulated welding samples of EH36 steels with and without Zr addition has been systematically investigated. The inclusions in plain EH36 steel are almost composed of Al-Ca-S-O(-Mn) and undergo negligible changes during the whole process. With Zr addition, a large amount of individually fine MnS precipitates and Zr-containing inclusions are generated. In the rolled EH36-Zr sample, Zr-containing complex inclusions are effective to promote the nucleation of acicular ferrite on the surface, which are hardly found in the simulated welding sample of EH36-Zr steel due to the segregation of soluble Ti and Zr on the grain boundary.
