Abstract
The mechanism and kinetics of corrosion of BN-ZrO2-SiC (MYCROSINT®SO43) by molten Si-killed steel was studied. Isothermal corrosion tests were performed for duration between 2 and 8 h. Refractory and steel composition and morphology changes were investigated. A kinetic model using process simulation software METSIM and thermochemical software FactSage was developed to understand refractory-steel interactions. The corrosion process showed a deviation from parabolic kinetics and was fitted by a combination of linear and parabolic terms. It was determined that corrosion of the BN-ZrO2-SiC refractory was governed by dissolution of SiC and BN and removal of ZrO2 as the other phases were eliminated.
