Preparation of Glass-ceramics Using Chromium-containing Stainless Steel Slag: Crystal Structure and Solidification of Heavy Metal Chromium

摘要

It is a useful way to stabilize the elements of heavy metal in the glass-ceramics with the form of ions due to the environmental pollution of heavy metal, such as Cr. The glass-ceramics of excellent combination properties were prepared, and the effect of stabilizing Cr-containing stainless steel slag with different concentrations of nitric acid leaching test were investigated. It was found that the major crystalline phase was diopside or anorthite with or without the amount stainless steel slag. Moreover, the continuous refinement of grains exhibited with the increase of amount of stainless steel slag. The results indicated that the excellent physical and mechanical properties, including density (2.9?g/cm3), hardness (729.27HV0.3), bending strength (222.9?MPa), and the solid solution of Cr in excess of 0.00057% for the glass-ceramics were related to the change of microstructure and phase structure. There showed the potential for reusing and detoxifying stainless steel slag.
