Abstract

In the present work, the effect of TiO2 on the viscosity and the free running temperature of the CaO–SiO2–Al2O3–MgO–TiO2 slag system were studied. At fixed CaO/SiO2 ratio of 1.1, 14 mass pct Al2O3 and 8 mass pct MgO, the viscosity decreases with an increase in TiO2 content between 20 and 30 mass pct due to depolymerization of slag structure , which means that TiO2 behaves as a network modifier. The free running temperature decreases with the increase of TiO2 content. The change of the apparent activation energy is in accordance with the change of viscosity . Five different viscosity models and FactSage software were employed to predict the viscosity . Yan’s model agrees well with experimental data.
