Abstract

Spontaneous emulsification phenomena at 1873 K for the interfacial reaction between high-Al steel and CaO–SiO2 flux was reevaluated. A mild spontaneous emulsification phenomenon was observed, which intensifies with the increase of Al content. The Al mass transfer in alloy along with the Al2O3 mass transfer in slag was assumed to control the global reaction, which was validated by fitting results. The mass transfer coefficient of Al2O3 in slag, \(k_{{{\text{(Al}}_{{2}} {\text{O}}_{{3}} {)}}}\), was determined to be 2.73 × 10–6.
