Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
The solubility and rate of dissolution of zirconia and alumina, in synthetic mould fluxes, will be measured. The mould fluxes will be based on the system SiO2-CaO-Al2O3-Na2O-CaF2 and the effect of varying Al2O3, Na2O and CaF2 will be studied. Measurements will be compared with commercial fluxes and used to explain SEN attack.
