(author)In hot metal desulphurisation (HMD) the slag will hold the removed sulphur. However, the iron that is lost when the slag is skimmed off, accounts for the highest costs of the HMD process. These iron losses are lower when the slag has a lower viscosity, which can be achieved by changing the slag composition. A lower slag basicity decreases the...journal article 2021

Ravi, A.M. (author), Navarro Lopez, A. (author), Sietsma, J. (author), Santofimia, Maria Jesus (author)Bainite formation in steels typically starts at austenite grain boundaries and continues through nucleation of bainite at newly formed bainitic ferrite/austenite interfaces. Recent experimental evidence has pointed out that austenite to bainite transformation can also proceed in the presence of martensite. Studies suggest that the presence of...journal article 2020

(author), Boom, R. (author), Yang, Y. (author)To lower the iron losses of the hot metal desulphurisation (HMD) process, slag modifiers can be added to the slag. Slag modifiers decrease the apparent viscosity of the HMD slag. Most common slag modifiers in industry contain fluoride as a fluidiser. However, fluoride leads to a higher magnesium consumption and has health, safety and...journal article 2020

Ravi, A.M. (author), Sietsma, J. (author), Santofimia, Maria Jesus (author)Low temperature bainite formation in high-carbon steels leads to highly refined microstructures. However, the rate of bainite formation becomes impractically low as the bainite formation temperature decreases. Thus, it is important to create strategies to accelerate the low-temperature bainite formation kinetics in high-carbon steels. In this...journal article 2020
