In Situ Observation of the Agglomeration of MgO–Al2O3 Inclusions on the Surface of a Molten GCr15-Bearing Steel
In the current study, thermodynamic calculations and laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the evolution of MgO–Al2O3 inclusions in a GCr15-bearing steel with varied Mg contents. Inclusions were tr...

In situ observation of the dissolution kinetics of Al2O3 particles in CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 slags using laser confocal scanning microscopy
The dissolution kinetics of Al2O3 in CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 slags was studied using a high-temperature confocal scanning laser microscope at 1773 to 1873 K. The results show that the controlling step during the Al2O3 dis...

In Situ Observation of the Dissolution of Al2O3 Particles in CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 Slags
The dissolution of Al2O3 particles in CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 slags was investigated by confocal scanning laser microscope at the temperature range from 1723 K to 1853 K. It was found that the rate-limiting step was the d...
