SLAGMAG

Description and physical properties :

  • Slagging additive SLAGMAG produced from half-burned magnesite is used in oxygen convector and EAF(electric arc furnace) as a high reactive additive for furnace top to increase MgO in slag
  • SLAGMAG

Application:

Positives resulting from using SLAGMAG additives:

  • benefits slag splashing
  • reduces consuption of gunning materials
  • shortening tap-to–tap times
  • longer operating life of refractory material
  • high reactivy
  • spontaneous formation of foaming slag
  • lower energy consuption
  • coating of electrodes and furnance walls
  • less consuption of the electordes
