Abstract
The solubility of the liquid oxide phase in liquid Fe-O alloys has been measured for the temperature range of 1378 to 1740 °C. Also the solubility of the liquid oxysulfide phase in liquid Fe-O-S alloys has been determined for the composition range of 0.08 to 0.30 wt pct oxygen and 0 to 0.5 wt pct sulfur. The oxygen content of liquid iron saturated with the liquid oxide phase is log O = −6358/T + 2.76. The standard free energy for the formation of the oxide phase is: xFe(l) + O(pct) = FexO(l); ΔG° = 242.4 − 0.0829T + 166,990/T(kJ). The equation for the standard free energy in the temperature range of 1550 to 1650 °C may be written as: −117.5 + 0.0496T (kJ). The effect of composition on temperature of saturation of liquid Fe-O-S alloys with the oxysulfide phase is:T(K) = −6358/(log pct O − 2.76) - (pct S)x [554 + 135.0(log O − 2.77)]. The relationship applies for the composition range of 0.15 to 0.30 wt pct oxygen and 0.0 to 0.5 wt pct sulfur and temperatures from 1480 to 1680 °C.
