Abstract

We investigated the sulfide scale formed upon the inside wall of ordinary cast-iron pots for sulfur-smelting. Upon microscopic observation of the sections (about 26 mm thick) and chemical and X-ray analysis at various positions of the scale, we obtained the following results: (1) The scale was mainly composed of pyrrhotite and Si was distributed all over the scale, but C was retained in the inner part as graphite. (2) The S content in the pyrrhotite determined by X-ray analysis was found in good agreement with that from chemical method, and rapidly decreased toward the sulfide/metal interface. (3) Cr seemingly moves toward the outer layer of the scale when its content is small. (4) Si as well as Fe and S were distributed periodically with identical intervals in the scale. But these phenomena may be attributed to another mechanism considered from the practical conditions.
