The Structure and Properties of Oxide Melts: Application of Basic Science to Metallurgical Processing

This volume represents an extended introductory treatise on the atomic scale structure and physicochemical properties of oxide melts, mainly of silicates, from both the basic science and the applied engineering points of view. It covers experimental information on the structure of oxide melts and glasses and an outline of their various physicochemical properties. The book also includes a fundamental introduction to the utilization of waste oxides largely produced from metal production in the world.
