FluMag® accelerates basic slag formation in an electric arc furnace and builds a wear-resistant slag layer on the lining, which improves durability.
FluMag® flux with a high magnesium oxide content is used to improve the durability of the lining in modern electric steelmaking furnaces (electric-arc furnaces).
In an electric-arc furnace FluMag® is used to accelerate basic slag formation and to build a wear-resistant slag layer on the lining (Patent No. 2645170 RU).
