Abstract

An Fe-0.01 to 0.5 mass pctAl alloy and an Fe-0.003 to 0.71 mass pctAl-1 mass pctM (M = C, Mn, and Ti) alloy were reoxidized with the CaO-Al2O3-FetO (3 mass pct) slags at 1873 K in an Al2O3 or CaO crucible for 5 and 60 minutes. The contents of acid-insoluble Al, total O, and alloying element M in metal as well as those of M and FetO in slag were measured as a function of total Al content. On the basis of the present and previous results for Fe-Al-Te alloys, the effect of alloying elements on the degree of supersaturation with respect to the Al2O3 precipitation was studied. As a result, the supersaturation phenomenon was observed in all experiments at 5 minutes, but in the experiments at 60 minutes, it was observed only in Fe-Al and Fe-Al-Ti alloys. No supersaturation was observed in the reoxidation of Si in Fe-0.13 to 0.98 mass pctSi alloys with the CaO-SiO2-FetO (3 mass pct) slags in a CaO crucible at 5 and 60 minutes.
