“…The above result of erosion resistance was better than that in the literature. According to the following equation,
30,31 the erosion depth of copper slag in refractory is directly related to the viscosity, wettability, surface tension of slag, and pore size of refractory:
where L is the penetration depth, γ is the surface tension of copper slag, η is the viscosity of copper slag, θ is the wetting angle, r is the pore radius, and t is the contact time.…”
