Effects of basicity and MgO content on the viscosity of the SiO_2-CaO-MgO-9wt%Al_2O_3 slag system

The effects of basicity and MgO content on the viscosity of SiO2-CaO-MgO-9wt%Al2O3 slags with basicity from 0.4 to 1.0 and MgO content from 13wt%to 19wt%were investigated using the rotating cylinder method. A correlation between the viscosity and the slag structure was determined by Fourier transform infrared （FTIR） spectroscopy. It is indicated that the complex network structure of the slag melt is depolymerized into simpler network units with increasing basicity or MgO content, resulting in a continuous decrease in viscosity of the slag. The viscosity is strongly dependent on the combined action of basic oxide components in the slag. Under the present experimental conditions, increasing the basicity is found to be more effective than increasing the MgO content in decreasing the viscosity of the slag. At higher temperatures, the increase of basicity or MgO content does not appreciably decrease the viscosity of the slag, as it does at lower tem-peratures. The calculated activation energy of viscous flow is between 154 and 200 kJ＆#183;mol-1, which decreases with an increase in basicity from 0.4 to 1.0 at a fixed MgO content in the range of 13wt%to 19wt%.

Desulfurization ability of refining slag with medium basicity

The desulfurization ability of refining slag with relative lower basicity （B） and Al2O3 content （B = 3.5-5.0; 20wt%-25wt% Al2O3） was studied. Firstly, the component activities and sulfide capacity （Cs） of the slag were calculated. Then slag-metal equilibrium experiments were carried out to measure the equilibrium sulfur distribution （Ls）. Based on the laboratorial experiments, slag composition was optimized for a better desulfurization ability, which was verified by industrial trials in a steel plant. The obtained results indicated that an MgO-saturated CaO-Al2O3-SiO2-MgO system with the basicity of about 3.5-5.0 and the Al2O3 content in the range of 20wt%-25wt% has high activity of CaO （αCaO）, with no deterioration of Cs compared with conventional desulfurization slag. The measured Ls between high-strength low-alloyed （HSLA） steel and slag with a basicity of about 3.5 and an Al2O3 content of about 20wt% and between HSLA steel and slag with a basicity of about 5.0 and an Al2O3 content of about 25wt% is 350 and 275, respectively. The new slag with a basicity of about 3.5-5.0 and an Al2O3 content of about 20wt% has strong desulfurization ability. In particular, the key for high-efficiency desulfurization is to keep oxygen potential in the reaction system as low as possible, which was also verified by industrial trials.

Behavior of phosphorus enrichment in dephosphorization slag at low temperature and low basicity

At low basicity and low temperature, the dephosphorization behavior and phosphorus distribution ratio(LP) between slag and molten steel in the double slag and remaining slag process were studied with a 180 t basic oxygen furnace industrial experiment.The dephosphorization slags with different basicities were quantitatively analyzed.At the lower basicity range of 0.9–2.59, both LP and dephosphorization ratio were increased as the basicity of dephosphorization slag increased.Dephosphorization slag consisted of dark gray P-rich, light gray liquid slag,and white Fe-rich phases.With increasing basicity, not only did the morphologies of different phases in the dephosphorization slag change greatly, but the area fractions and P2O5 content of the P-rich phase also increased.The transfer route of P during dephosphorization can be deduced as hot metal → liquid slag phase + Fe-rich phase → P-rich phase.

Phosphate enrichment mechanism in CaO–SiO_2–FeO–Fe_2O_3–P_2O_5 steelmaking slags with lower binary basicity

The addition of silica to steelmaking slags to decrease the binary basicity can promote phosphate enrichment in quenched slag samples. In this study, we experimentally investigated phosphate enrichment behavior in CaO-SiO2-FeO-Fe203-P205 slags with a P205 content of 5.00% and the binary basicity B ranging from 1.0 to 2.0, where the （%Fe/O）/（%CaO） mass percentage ratio was maintained at 0.955. The experimental results are explained by the defined enrichment degree c, of solid solution 2CaO·SiO2-3CaO·P205 （C2S-C3P）, where R_C2S-C3P is a component of the developed ion and molecule coexistence theory （IMCT）-Ni model for calculating the mass action concentrations Ni of structural units in the slags on the basis of the IMCT. The asymmetrically inverse V-shaped relation be- tween phosphate enrichment and binary basicity B was observed to be correlated in the slags under applied two-stage cooling conditions. The maximum content of PROs in the C2S-C3P solid solution reached approximately 30.0% when the binary basicity B was controlled at 1.3.

Influence of Absolute Basicity and Capillary Porosity on Carbonation of Concrete

The single influence of capillary porosity and coupling effects of absolute basicity and capillary porosity on concrete carbonation were investigated. The experimental results showed that carbonation rate of concrete at a given absolute basicity （AB） increased moderately with the increase of the porosity ranging from 6.2% to 9.25%, and increased rapidly with porosity from 9.25% to 12.8%.The coupling effect mainly embodied in disappeared mutation point of capillary porosity, and the distributing regions of carbonation depth were clearly partitioned in the coupling influence of absolute basicity and capillary porosity. A design method on carbonation related durability of concrete based on the coupling effects was proposed.

Optimization of PGNAA device and algorithm for testing basicity index of sinter mixture

Sinter is the main raw material in the blast furnace iron-making process,and basicity(CaO/SiO2)is an important quality index of sinter.Prompt gamma neutron activation analysis is a multi-elemental online detection technology that has been successfully applied in cement,coal,etc.Compared with cement as a raw material,sinter exhibits poor moderation ability and a large neutron absorption cross section.Therefore,cement detection devices are not suitable for sinter mixture detection.In this study,a prompt gamma neutron activation analysis equipment used for testing cement was re-optimized to render it suitable for measuring a sinter mixture.Using Monte Carlo simulation,the comprehensive detection efficiency of the detection device improved by 71.52%.Because of the gamma-ray self-shielding effect of the sinter mixture,the detection errors of CaO and SiO2 are significant.By applying the gamma-ray self-shielding correction algorithm,the detection accuracies improved,and their linear correlation coefficients R2 exceeded 0.99.Furthermore,by applying an improved analyzer to a sintering plant,the first-grade product rate of the factory increased by 4.64%.

Effect of Top Slag Basicity on Quality of Steel Treated by Exothermic Agent SiFe and SiCaBa during Chemical Heating

The effect of top slag basicity on quality of steel treated with SiFe and SiCaBa alloy as exothermic agent in chemical heating was studied.These experiments were carried out in MoSi_2 laboratory furnace with 0.2 kg molten steel for equilibrium test and 2 kg molten steel for simulation test respectively.These results showed that the adjusting basicity of top slag with CaO is effective to prevent rephosphorization and resulphurization,and it is possible to dephosphorize and desulphurize and remove the inclusions from molten steel when basicity R of the top slag is adjusted to 2.0 — 3.10,and SiCaBa alloy is better than SiFe alloy in this relation.

Operando FT-IR study on basicity improvement of Ni(Mg,AI)O hydrotalcitederived catalysts promoted by glow plasma discharge

CO2 adsorption on the surface of hydrotalcite-derived mixed oxide catalysts was investigated under low pressure glow discharge plasma in opercindo conditions via FT-IR spectroscopy.Nickel catalysts were promoted with various transition metal species(Ce,Fe,La,Zr)to influence their physico-chemical properties.Fe and Zr species were successfully incorporated into hydrotalcite brucite layers.After calcination formed a single phase with Ni(Mg,A1)O mixed oxide,while La and Ce species formed separate phases.This had a consequence in the distribution of surface basic sites as well as in the affinity to CO produced upon CO2 dissociation in plasma.Plasma treatment activated the surface of prepared materials and changed their properties via the generation of strong basic sites associated with low coordinated surface oxygen anions.Moreover,the CO2 adsorption capacity of prepared materials increased after plasma treatment.

A model for estimating the rate constant between CO_2-CO gas and molten slag containing iron oxides using optical basicity

A simple model for estimating the rate constant between CO2-CO gas and molten slag containing iron oxides was developed using optical basicity only. In this model, the temperature dependence of the rate constant can be described by the Arrhenius law, and the activation energy can be expressed with a linear function of the slag＇s optical basicity. The model was applied to some molten slag systems, such as FeO, FeO-CaO, FeO-SiO2, FeO-Na2O, FeO-CaO-SiO2, FeO-SiO2-P2O5, FeO-SiOE-Na2O, and FeO-CaO-SiOE-P2O5. A comparison between the predicted results and measured data showed that the model worked well.

Optical Basicity and Polarizability of Nd³⁺-Doped Bismuth Borate Glasses

This paper reports on different physical and optical properties of Nd3+-doped bismuth borate glasses. The glasses containing Nd3+ in (25 - x)Bi2O3:20Li2O:20ZnO:35B2O3:xNd2O3 (where x = 1, 1.5, 2 mol%) have been prepared by melt-quenching method. The amorphous nature of the glasses was confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies. The physical parameters like dielectric constant, refractive index, ionic concentration, oxygen-packing density, inter ionic distance, polaronradius, reflection loss, energy gap, molar refractivity, molar polarizability, electronic polarizability, optical basicity and field strength are computed. On the basis of the measured values of the density and refractive index, the Nd3+ ion concentration in glasses, the polarizability of oxide ions and optical basicity were theoretically determined. The theoretical value of average electronic polarizability and oxide ion polarizability were calculated by using Lorentz-Lorenz formula. Theoretical optical basicity of the glasses is evaluated based on equation proposed by Duffy and Ingram. The metallization criterion has also been calculated on the basis of refractive index and energy gap. The large value of metallization criterion indicates that the glass materials are insulators. The results obtained predict the nature of bonding in the present glasses and provide basis for developing new nonlinear optical material.

Optimum Slag Basicity for Deoxidation DuringSecondary Refining Process

According to the coexistence theory of slag structures, the calculating model of the oxidizing capabilityfor CaO-MgO-FeO-Al2O3-SiO2 refining slag system has been deduced. Based on this model, the concept and thecalculating method of the optimum slag basicity are put forward. The results have proved that at this basicity,steel with lower oxygen content can be obtained and non-metallic indigenous globular inclusions can be avoidedmore effectively than at other basicity.

Correlation between the Sulphide Capacity Index and the Slag Basicity

The relationships between the sulphide capacity index and the optical basicity, the mole fraction of oxygen ion and the Bell's ratio were investigated based on extensive lab scale equilibrium and industry scale quasi-equilibrium experimental data in the temperature range of 1300 1600℃. Although the sulphide capacity index has good relations with different representations of slag basicity. according to the data obtained under the lab scale equilibrium experimental conditions,the similar relations do not exist according to the data obtained under the industry scale quasi-equilibrium experimental conditions. So it is concluded that the sulphide capacity index, which has been considered as a measure of the slag basicity. can not be used for virtually all oxide slags of interest in the field of ironmaking and steelmaking.

Characterization of the acidity and basicity of green solvents by NMR techniques

The acidity and basicity of the solvents can influence the reaction outcome notably,and hence the precise measurement of pH is important for reaction.However,not all the pH values of organic solvents can be determined with a classic pH meter straightly.In this research,the acidity and basicity of environmentally friendly green solvents,such as ZnCl_(2) molten salt hydrate,ionic liquids(ILs)and deep eutectic solvents(DESs),were characterized by 31P and 1 H NMR spectroscopy using trimethylphosphine oxide(TMPO)and pyrrole as probe molecules at 298 K.For the ZnCl_(2) molten salt hydrate,the acidic strength of the ZnCl_(2) molten salt hydrate increased with the concentration of ZnCl_(2).By using the ^(1)H-pyrrole NMR approach,it was found that the base strength of amino acid-based ILs follows the order:[Ch][Lys]>[Ch][His].

Effect of quaternary basicity on reduction behavior of iron-bearing dust pellets

The treatment of iron-bearing dusts and sludges by the rotary hearth furnace process has the advantage of sufficient utilization of valuable metals and a high impurity removal rate,but the lower strength of the metallized product needs to be addressed.The effects of quaternary basicity R4(w(CaO+MgO)/w(SiO_(2)+Al_(2)O_(3)))on the reduction behavior and physical and chemical properties of metallized pellets,including phase composition,compressive strength,microstructure and soft melting area,were investigated with FactSage thermodynamic software and experiments.The strength of metallized pellets depended on the gangue composition,such as CaO,MgO,Al_(2)O_(3) and SiO_(2),due to the altered chemical composition,physical phase composition,microscopic morphology and stability of the slag phase.The reduction of carbon-bearing pellets was significantly promoted by suitable basicity.The lower basicity(R_(4)<1.4)facilitated the formation of low melting point iron-containing compounds from SiO_(2) and Al_(2)O_(3) with FeO,resulting in increased liquid phase generation,but lower metallization rate,due to the hindered precipitation and growth of iron grains.Interestingly,the higher basicity(R_(4)>1.8)also increased the amount of liquid phase and improved the strength of the pellets,due to the granular iron crystals bonded into sheets.Notably,the main component of the liquid phase in high-basicity conditions was calcium ferrite.Although the additional amount of liquid phase was beneficial to the strength of the metallized pellets,calcium disilicate was formed at R_(4)=1.6,resulting in a reduction in the compressive strength of the pellets to 1521.9 N/pellet.

Activation of endogenous neurogenesis and angiogenesis by basic fibroblast growth factor-chitosan gel in an adult rat model of ischemic stroke

Attempts have been made to use cell transplantation and biomaterials to promote cell proliferation,differentiation,migration,and survival,as well as angiogenesis,in the context of brain injury.However,whether bioactive materials can repair the damage caused by ischemic stroke by activating endogenous neurogenesis and angiogenesis is still unknown.In this study,we applied chitosan gel loaded with basic fibroblast growth factor to the stroke cavity 7 days after ischemic stroke in rats.The gel slowly released basic fibroblast growth factor,which improved the local microenvironment,activated endogenous neural stem/progenitor cells,and recruited these cells to migrate toward the penumbra and stroke cavity and subsequently differentiate into neurons,while enhancing angiogenesis in the penumbra and stroke cavity and ultimately leading to partial functional recovery.This study revealed the mechanism by which bioactive materials repair ischemic strokes,thus providing a new strategy for the clinical application of bioactive materials in the treatment of ischemic stroke.

Industrial Application of Desulfurization Using Low Basicity Refining Slag in Tire Cord Steel

Desulfurization performance with low binary basicity refining slag in 72 grade tire cord steel was calculated using FactSage and it is found that sulfur content in steel decreases with the increase of basicity of slag, MgO content in slag and slag/steel ratio while sulfur partition ratio between slag and steel increases gradually with the increase of basicity of slag as well as MgO content. Experiments were carried out and the results are of great agreements with theoretical calculation. Then industrial application tests were performed in a domestic plant and good results were achieved. Sulfur content in steel decreases gradually during refining process, as a result, sulfur content in the billets is controlled in the range of 0.007 1%-0.008 1%. Sulfur content in steel refined with slag basicity of 1.21 is lower than that of 1.02, while the plasticity of oxide compound inclusions is a little better controlled in low basicity heats. Using refining slag with basicity of 1.0-1.2 and MgO content of 5%-10% and reducing the slag takeover of LD are favorable for improving the desulfurization performance and the plasticity of inclusions during the industrial production.
