Thermo-Mechanical Properties and Oxidation Behavior of FeCrAl Alloys with Si and Y Addition by Yanzhao Ni, Wen Qi, Liangshuo Zhao, Dong Li, Yingjie Qiao, Jingxue Zhou, Peng Wang, Kun Yang

“…A trace amount of Y can improve the alloy’s high-temperature oxidation resistance by mitigating the spallation of the surface oxidation film and promoting the growth of the film, characterized by heterogeneous chemical composition and microstructure. It is observed that Y possesses a higher charge density than FeCrAl, suggesting that Y can lose electrons more readily than other elements, which implies a reduction in oxygen diffusion.…”

Enhancing direct carbonation performance of basic oxygen furnace slag through potassium chloride activation by Rong SUN, Weicheng XU, Hongming LONG, Rufei WEI

“…The experimental results indicated that ball milling with KCl led to Ca-enrichment on the surface of the BOF slag particles, reducing the diffusion resistance of CO2. Furthermore, an optimal amount of KCl facilitated the dispersion of BOF slag particles during ball milling, resulting in more micropores and mesopores that promoted CO2 diffusion. …”
