Calcium Aluminate Synthetic Slag
Metallurg Vanadium's calcium aluminate synthetic slag, a cost-effective and carefully controlled steelmaking addition, is in use by quality-conscious steelmakers across America.
Calcium Aluminate Slag provides benefits:
- Savings on the elimination or reduced consumption of dolomitic lime, fluorspar, aluminum and calcium carbide.
- Ladle refractory protection.
- Energy savings at ladle furnaces.
- Consistent slag chemistry.
- Faster steel refining times.
- Sulpher and inclusion removal in steel.
- Greater casting yields through improved castability.
- Application for aluminum and silicon-killed grades.
