Synthetic Slag

Synthetic Slag is neither a by-product nor a blended material, but a calcium aluminates with controlled composition. Pre-melting ensures a homogenous consistent chemical composition, as well as themost efficient mineralogical phases.
 
In secondary metallurgy, Synthetic Slag is preferably added during the tapping operation of the steel into the ladle. The flux will quickly form a reactive and fluid slag with the other materials.
 
The low melting point mineral phases of Synthetic Slag, including C12A7, will efficiently create a clean and creamy slag, suitable for trapping non-metallic inclusions. One of the main objectives of Synthetic Slag is to form a slag suitable for enhancing steel cleanliness.
