Excerpt from A Method for Measuring the Viscosity of Blast-Furnace Slag at High Temperatures
Fulton b has determined the melting points of a series of copper slags by means of the thermal method of the Geophysical Laboratory, Such melting points correspond to that temperature at which the slag passes entirely from the crystalline to the amorphous state, and have no direct relation with the viscosity of the melt. Fulton obtained an idea of the temperature at which the slag became fluid by stirring the melt with a heavy platinum rod. The melting point temperature was much lower than the 'fluidity temperature, the difference between these two temperatures being extremely variable. An apparatus, consisting essentially of a graphite crucible with an elongated orifice in the base, has been devised by Johnsonc for determining the dripping point of slags.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book establishes an innovative method for determining viscosity in blast-furnace slags at exceedingly high temperatures to help better understand their behavior under furnace conditions. The author, a respected figure in the field, developed a specialized electric furnace and accompanying apparatus to conduct experiments on various slag samples, providing a comprehensive analysis of their temperature-viscosity relationships. Through these detailed measurements, the book uncovers essential insights into the complex nature of slag viscosity, its variation with temperature, and its impact on processes such as slag distribution and sulfur content. The findings presented have significant implications for advancing metallurgical practices, particularly in the realm of iron production, and offer a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and anyone seeking to optimize slag management in industrial applications. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
