Abstract
The process of refining hot metal in the LD-converter leads to the formation of a slag which according to the theory of ionic dissociation consists of anions, anionic complexes and metal cations. The electroneutrality principle forces local order in the liquid slag - which is transformed to long range order during the solidification of the crystal lattices.
Solid converter slags obtained at the end of blowing consists of mixed crystals of dicalcium silicate, wustit, and dicalicium ferrite phases.
Microanayltical investigations and model calculations on mixed crystal formation indicate that the phosphorus of the slag is incorporated into the dicalcium silicate mixed crystal as PO4(3-) partially substituting the SiO4(4-)-anions.
