Abstract

CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-CaF2 is a base system of mold flux for high Al steels. Phase equilibrium in CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-15 mass pct CaF2 system at 1523 K (1250 °C) was investigated using quenching method followed by X-ray diffraction and Scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Isothermal section in this system at 1523 K (1250 °C) with Al2O3 being less than 25 mass pct and CaO/SiO2 (mass pct) being between 0.43 and 1.25 was experimentally constructed. The liquidus composition and seven solid-liquid coexistence regions at 1523 K (1250 °C) were determined.
