Abstract
Use of carbon in the composition of the ferro-alloy, in particular cast iron, as a deoxidizer in welding ilmenite-type electrodes is suggested. The method of calculation of equilibrium content of carbon and manganese in the deposited metal has been developed that makes it possible to determine the maximum admissible amount of carbon, added with a cast iron powder into the electrode coatings at different shares of ilmenite, FeMn and [Mn]
Keywords: electrode coating, slag, carbon, cast iron powder, deoxidizing ability, equilibrium content, manganese, oxygen
