Experimental Study on Electrical Conductivity of FexO-CaO-SiO2-Al2O3 System at Various Oxygen Potentials
The electrical conductivity of FexO-CaO-SiO2-Al2O3 slags was measured by a four terminal method. The results show that the temperature dependences of total, electronic and ionic conductivity for different compositions obey the Arrhenius law and all of them increase as increasing the temperature.

| Summary: | The electrical conductivity of FexO-CaO-SiO2-Al2O3 slags was measured by a four terminal method. The results show that the temperature dependences of total, electronic and ionic conductivity for different compositions obey the Arrhenius law and all of them increase as increasing the temperature. For all the studied slags, as increasing CO/CO2 ratio which is used to controlled the oxygen potential, both the total electrical conductivity and electronic conductivity increase, but the ionic conductivity decreases. It was also found that the electronic transference number exhibits a strong correlation with oxygen potential, but is independent of temperature. Under the condition of constant FexO content, the higher the basicity of slags is, the higher the total electrical conductivity and ionic/electronic conductivity will be, which is resulted from the increase of free oxygen ion. |
