Abstract

The effect of Al₂O₃ concentration on the density and structure of CaO-SiO₂-Al₂O₃ slag was investigated at multiple Al₂O₃ mole percentages and at a fixed CaO/SiO₂ ratio of 1. The experiments were conducted in the temperature range of 2154 K to 2423 K (1881 °C to 2150 °C) using the aerodynamic levitation technique. In order to understand the relationship between density and structure, structural analysis of the silicate melts was carried out using Raman spectroscopy. The density of each slag sample investigated in this study decreased linearly with increasing temperature. When the Al₂O₃ content was less than 15 mole pct, density decreased with increasing Al₂O₃ content due to the coupling of Si (Al), whereas above 20 mole pct density of the slag increased due to the role of Al³⁺ ion as a network modifier.
