Erosion of Submerged Entry Nozzles by Casting Powders
S. Devic and L. Marceta
The erosion effects of three casting powders over three times periods on submerged entry nozzles used in continuous steel casting have been studied. |
Influence of Water on Fluorine-Doped Tin Oxide Films
Hong-Li Zhao, Qi-Ying Liu, Yong-Xiu Cai and Fu-Cheng Zhang
Fluorine-doped tin oxide film was prepared using atmosphere-pressure chemical vapor deposition on float-glass with monobutyltin trichloride as precursor, trifluoroacetic acid as dopant and various concentrations of water as activator. |
Microsilica Addition as an Antihydration Technique for Magnesia-Containing Refractory Castables
Rafael Salomão and Victor C. Pandolfelli
Microsilica addition, which generates a protective magnesium silicate coating, is used as a magnesia antihydration technique to improve castable properties by decreasing volumetric expansion and, thus, microcracking. |
Use of Sulfur Dioxide in Chinese Float-Glass Production Lines
Liu Shimin, Qin Guoqiang and Li Dongchun
Sulfur dioxide injected near the transitional roll desk in a float-glass production line can improve the physical, chemical and mechanical properties of the glass surface, but can cause pollution to the tin bath, production line and workplace. |
