Abstract
Investigation of the structure of slag melts and development of the concept of their structural bacisity formed the basis for suggesting the principle of preparing flux compositions with the basicity, varying under the impact of the thermal cycle of welding.
Keywords: electric arc welding, welding fluxes, slags, selection of flux composition, structure of slag melts, bacisity
