Structural Roles of TiO2 in CaF2-SiO2-CaO-TiO2 Submerged Arc Welding Fluxes
A series of fused CaF2-SiO2-CaO-based fluxes geared
towards submerged arc welding has been prepared with
incremental TiO2 additions. Through systematic investigation
on physical properties, quantitative relationship
between TiO2 content and corresponding structural
information has been established, and the roles played
by TiO2 have been profiled. It is found that TiO2 has
been introduced into the silicate network by acting as
network-former, increasing the degree of polymerization
while lowering the strength of the flux.The National Natural Science Foundation of China, Newton Advanced Fellowship by the Royal Society , Special Fund for Key Program of Science and Technology of Liaoning Province, Research Fund for Central Universities, Xingliao Talents Program and State Key Laboratory of Metal Material for Marine Equipment and Application.http://link.springer.com/journal/116632021-08-20am2021Materials Science and Metallurgical Engineerin
