Abstract

The thermodynamic properties of silica-saturated iron silicate slags have been studied from oxygen partial pressure measurements using a solid electrolyte galvanic cell. The oxygen activity in molten silver bath equilibrated with iron silicate slags was determined by the following cell type, Pt, Ni-NiO/O=/slag-Ag(O), LaCrO3, Pt at temperatures between 1473 and 1573 K for the slags ranging in compositions from iron saturation to magnetite saturation. The oxygen partial pressures obtained in this investigation were in good agreement with those given by the previous study using the CO-CO2 gas equilibrium method. The data showed that the Fe+++/Fe++ ratio is proportional toP o 2 ¼
