The viscosity of slag from an operating integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) plant utilising petroleum coke and a synthetic petcoke with the same composition made chemical grade oxides in reducing environment for application were investigated this study. A high temperature rotating bob-type viscometer was used to measure between temperatures 1250–1375 °C. Natural ash had similar viscos...

High temperature deformation behavior of cast 310S stainless steel has been investigated in this study by performing tensile and compression tests at temperatures from 900 to 1200C. Rectangular ingots of which the dimensions were 350×350×100 in millimeter were cast using vacuum induction melting. Phase equilibrium was calculated using the FactSage®, thermodynamic software and database. Thermal ...

Phase equilibria of AZ91D Mg alloys for nonflammable use, containing Ca and Y, were carried out by using FactSage® and FTLite database, which revealed that solid solution treatment could be performed at temperatures from 400 to 450C. Solid solution treatment of AZ91D Mg alloy without Ca and Y was successfully conducted at 420C and supersaturated microstructure with all beta phase resolved into ...

Abstract: Thermodynamic computational packages MTDATA and FactSage have been used to carry out calculations on the variation with temperature of the phases precipitated on cooling in both oxidising and reducing conditions of a typical ladle slag composition, in the temperature range 1700 - 900°C. The current coverage of the databases associated with the computational packages is discussed i...

The increasing concentrations of metallic Al or Al2O3 in secondary copper resources like electronic wastes motivate research into the slag chemistry high-Al2O3 iron silicate slags for optimizing industrial smelting process. In this study, effect on phase equilibria FeOx-SiO2-Al2O3 system was experimentally investigated at 1200 °C and pO2 10?8.6 atm. high-temperature experiments were undertaken ...

Abstract Aluminum alloys commonly contain Si as an impurity or alloying element. The energetic behavior of within multiple compounds and solutions is incorporated inside thermochemical packages, such FactSage. This tool allows determining the partitioning complex multiphasic systems. Recent experimental research suggests that can be found Al 3 Zr-based intermetallics. Nevertheless, current Fact...
