Abstract

Language:

The crystallization kinetics of various oxide melts based on the systems Al2O3-CaO-SiO2-X (where X= MgO, Na2O, CaF2, TiO2, ZrO2) were investigated, and Time-Temperature-Transformation curves were established. This research primarily aims to characterize glass forming ability through parameters like temperature ranges for crystallization, incubation times, and critical cooling rates. Key factors impacting glass forming ability include viscosity and liquidus temperature of the melts. The role of TiO2 and ZrO2 as nucleating agents was analyzed within an Al2O3-CaO-SiO2-Na2O-CaF2 melt. This study contributes to enhancing the understanding of slag and flux compositions used in steelmaking and aims to elucidate the rheology of oxide inclusions in steel during hot rolling. This knowledge is essential as non-metallic inclusions significantly influence the physical and mechanical properties of steel products, thus improving the quality and service characteristics of the final products. Findings indicate that the crystallization state of inclusions and the nature of oxides could play a substantial role in mitigating negative impacts during thermal processing.
