Synthetic fluxes
Synthetic fluxes are produced in arc-resistance furnaces by oxide melting in adequate proportion.
Application:
Synthetic fluxes are used in steel-mill processes in off-furnace steel processing in a laddle. They have useful physical and chemical properties i.e. low melting point, high reactivity and deoxidizing capacity.
Packaging and transport:
Synthetic fluxes are delivered in bulk or in big-bags by road or rail transport.
