The furnace slag generated from smelting of South African vanadium-titanium magnetite was taken in an experimental study by adopting direct reduction followed by melting, and then analyzed by XRD to investigate the effect of basicity on the metallurgical properties of the slag, as well as on the separation of iron from slag. Furthermore, the effect of basicity on the melting characteristics and viscosity of the slag were also explored. Results show that melting at 1 450 ℃ with the addition of carbon at an amount of 5%, the slag has its corresponding softening temperature, hemisphere temperature and flow temperature rising gradually with the increase in basicity. With the basicity ranging from 0.9 to 1.2, the melting temperature of slag increases rapidly, and the measured and calculated viscosity of slag presents a trend of an initial decrease followed by increase. When the basicity rising from 0.9 to 1.4, the diffraction peaks of pyroxene and feldspar in the slag climb to the high value and then start to fall, and the relative contents of perovskite and calcium-aluminum spinel gradually increase after an initial decrease. It is shown that the slag with basicity of 1.2 and viscosity of 0.130 Pa·s can present better performance.
