The results indicate that the conventional slag, consisting of 70% CaF2 and 30% A1203, has the lowest hydrogen permeability. A parameter EH was proposed for evaluation of the hydrogen permeability of slags containing calcium fluoride. The hydrogen permeability decreases with increasing EH to a certain extent. An appropriate choice of slag for the ESR process can be obtained. These results also suggest that the hydrogen pick-up in steel after remelting might be reduced when a slag with low hydrogen permeability is used.展开更多
