MATE 305: Primary Materials Processing High Temperature Microscopy Laboratory: The Kinetics of Alumina Dissolution in Slag

Report: Part 1 (3 pages maximum)
Produce a word processed report containing all relevant information and results using a standard
structure for a laboratory report. Keep any preamble or background statement to a minimum. Ensure
you have a description of your experimental method, melting procedure used, stated key
calibration data for conversion of pixels (or other image reference) to standard SI units and
have noted the temperature and slag composition used in your experiments.
Report: Part 2 (2 page maximum)
Solid non-metallic particles must be removed from a liquid metal prior to solidification or they
negatively affect the solidified metals physical properties. Explain how your laboratory
measurements and laboratory measurement approach can be used to optimise the non-metallic
particle removal from the melt. Key aspects to consider will be
i. Particle type
ii. Particle size
iii. Reaction mechanism
iv. Slag composition
Use appropriate fundamental relations/equations, phase diagrams and mechanistic schematics to
answer this question.
