AbstractThe effects of the elements of the b'column of the 6th group of the Periodic Table (O, S, Se and Te) on the surface tension of molten iron and the contact angle between molten iron and solid oxides have been measured with the sessile drop method.The effect of tellurium on the elimination of oxide inclusions (alumina, mullite and zirconia) from molten iron has been investigated. It was found that all of these elements acted as surface-active agents and in molten iron the surface activity increased in the order oxygen, sulphur, selenium, and tellurium. The contact angle between molten iron and alumina decreased with the addition of oxygen and increased with that of selenium and tellurium while sulphur scarcely had any effect. Moreover the contact angles on other oxides such as magnesia, mullite, and zirconia also increased with increasing tellurium content in the molten iron.The amount of inclusions in the molten iron decreased considerably with the addition of tellurium during the deoxidation with ...
