The structural effect of composition is crucial for designing converter slag and understanding the foaming performance during the steelmaking process. This study aims to investigate the structural evolution of molten slag in the initial smelting stage of basic oxygen steelmaking. CaO–SiO2–FexO samples with varied compositions were prepared to simulate converter slag. The compositions and structural units of these slag samples were explored using a combination of experimental techniques, primarily X-ray analysis. Results indicate that the structural formation of molten slag significantly influences its foaming behavior, which is essential for improving metallurgical safety and efficiency during the smelting process. The findings reveal specific compositional characteristics that enhance or inhibit foam stability, providing fundamental insights for optimizing slag design in steel production. These insights contribute to a better understanding of the interactions involved in the primary steelmaking process, allowing for improved operational control and enhanced material quality in steel manufacturing.
