Abstract

Activities of FeO in CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-MgO-FeO slags were determined at 1 673 K by electrochemical measurements of the solid electrolyte cell: Mo |Mo+MoO2|ZrO2(MgO)|Fe+(CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-MgO-FeO)+Ag|Fe. The influences of slag compositions and basicity on FeO activities were analyzed. The results reveal that, for slags of fixed (%CaO)/(%SiO2) ratio, MgO and Al2O3 content, there was an increase of FeO activities with increase of FeO content. For slags with constant {(%CaO)+ (%MgO)}/(%SiO2) ratio, fixed FeO and Al2O3 content, FeO activities decreased when MgO content increased from 5% to 10%, and increased with the increase of MgO content when it was over 10%. The FeO activities increased when (%CaO)/(%SiO2) ratio changed from 1.03 to 1.30 in the slags of constant MgO, FeO and Al2O3 content.
