In this paper, the recent development of acid smelting of the blast furnace is discussed. The working results with acid slag at the Corby Works in England and the Gutehof-fnungshutte in Germany are briefly described. In the Corby works, it has been previously very difficult to smelt Northamptonshire ore for the manufacture of basic pig iron for steel making purposes, on account of the high proportion of alumina to silica. The difficulties encountered with high alumina slag has been successfully overcome with the basicity ratio of about 0.93 in the slag, which is the ratio of lime to silica for obtaining a minimum melting point and a minimum viscosity. In the Gutehoffnungshutte, the idea is to reduce the amount of slag produced and the quantity of coke consumed in the smelting of low grade German ore for the production of basic bessemer pig iron with acid slag which has the basicity ratio 0.8. It is an unsuitable and inefficient method for the elimination of sulphur, and no attention is paid to the sulphur content of the pig iron. The sulphur is removed by subsequent treatment with soda.

Some years ago, the author has published on the foundamental investigation of the reduction of iron ores by hydrogen, on the Meiji Senmon Gakko Gahuho and the Journal of Iron and Steel Institute. In this investigation he made the experiment of reduction by hydrogen on the different kinds of ore, from 2, 000 to 5, 000 grams to investigate the properties of melted iron produced from the reduced iron. He determined proper temperature and time of the reduction in nearly industrial scale using the iron sands from Sanin and Kuji, and the iron ores from Taihei, Johole, Tochu, Ansan and the mill scales. The sponge iron after reduction was made as brickets under the pressure, 2 tons per square inch. From 1kg, to 1&middot;5kg. of the brickets is melted in an electric resistance furnace made by carbon-tube and cast as ingot. The phenomena of the melting was observed, and the degree of the reduction of phospkorus and sulphur was estimated, also, the impurities in the iron was analysed.<BR>The ingot iron obtained by the melting was forged after heating and compared the physical properties of the iron produced by different kind of ores<BR>Generally, it is known, in the blast furnace working, that nearly all the phosphorous in the charge is reduced and goes into the pig iron and it is impossible to remove the phosphorous into the slag. But, in this e all the phosphorous is not reduced on account of low temperature of reduction and the ureduced phosphorous which exist as its oxide is removed in the slag during the melting. It is recognized that the degree of reduction changes by the temperature of reduction. To confirm this phenomena, the high phosphorous iron ores, Taihei and Johole is reduced in different temperatures between 600&deg;C and 1, 100&deg;C and investigated the phosphorous content in the iron and slag obtained by the melting of the sponge iron to observe the influence of the temperature on the reduction of phosphorous.

The phosphorus in the iron and steel gives most injurious effect on their properties as well as sulphur, so that it is encouraged to eliminate the phos-phorus as lower as possible in their manufacture.<BR>There are many literatures as to the effects of phosphorus on the mechanical properties of steel, but as its effects change by the amount of carbon and other impurities in it, it is impossible to specify the limit of phosphorus content which is not objectionable to the properties of steel, and also it is impossible to express the change of mechanical properties by the increase of phosphorus content.<BR>The author made the phosphor-irons which contain the phosphorus from 0.014 to 0.91 per cent with very small amount of carbon and other impurities, and he investigated the effect of phosphorus on the mechanical and physical properties of iron.

The specimens of manganese iron which contains up to 3.82% of manganese are made by the melted iron obtained from the sponge iron by hydrogen reduction with the metallic manganese in the market. Ten ingots of different manganese content are forged into the proper shape for the investigation. The measurement of electric conductivity, the mechanical testing and the microscopic investigation on the specimens were carried on as forged, annealed and quenched conditions.<BR>The electric resistivity of the annealed sample increases 0.6 microhm by incrensing 0.1% of Mn and that of the quenched sample is little higher than annealed ones The tensile strength and the elastic limit gradually increase up to 2% Mn, proportionally to the manganese content and over 2%, the ratio of increase is remarkable. In the quenched sample, these increase is marked up to 2% Mn, over 2%, the rate of increase in tensile strength is reduced and the elastic limit decreases suddenly. The elongation and the reduction area decrease exceedingly up to 0.2% Mn, over 0.2% they do not show much decrease by increasing the manganese content and over 2.2% Mn show sudden decrease. In the quenched specimens the rapid decrease of the reduction area is recognized increasing manganese under 0.67% and by increasing more manganese there is not much change in elongation and reduction area. But there is shown sudden decrease from 2.8% to 3.8% Mn in which malleability can hardly be recognized.<BR>The impact value is markedly reduced as the manganese content decreases. Especially in the annealed condition, this phenomenon is more marked, in 0.7% Mn it is 3kg. -meter. Then as the manganese content increases it suddenly goes up and reaches maximum, 13kg. -meter, in 2% Mn. Over this content of manganese it shows sudden decrease and in 3.8% there is almost no value in all conditions.<BR>In the micro-scopic investigation, the structure of low manganese specimens in annealed condition consist all ferrite crystals. When the manganese content increases to about 2% some martensitic structure appears and in 3.8% manganese it changes completely to martensite. In the quenched condition, the martensitic structure appears already in 0.677% manganese and the structure becomes completely martensite in 2% manganese.

The author proposes a process for making of pure iron by a duplex process of Bessemer converter and bigh frequency electric furnace as an economical induatrial process. The molten pig iron melted in a cupola furnace was blown in the basic or acid bessemer converter depending on the phosphorus content to eliminate the impurities. <BR>The carbon content in the blown metal was kept under 0.04 per cent. The refining of the blown metal was carried out in the high frequeney electric furnace with acid slag. The final metal obtained contained very small impurities and it is recognized that it is not difficult to make the carbon cont-ent of iron under 0.02 per cent and to deoxidize the metal by acid slag to obtain the pure iron with good mechanical properties.

The author has been published on the effects of phosphorus as to the mechanical and physical properties of iron on this journal, Vol. XVIII, No. 4. This is the contuniation. of the previous investigation. It has been known that the magnetic properties of the iron is remarkably effected by small amount of impurities in it and the superior magnetic properties is obtained to eilminate the impurities as lower as possible in its manufacture.<BR>The author incidently discovered, in an occasion of investigation of iron made by the process of hydrogen reduction, that the phosphorus in the iron improves the magnetic properties of iron-that is high permeability and low hysteresis loss.<BR>In this research, the magnetic properties of phosphor iron, containing lower than 1% P was investigated. When the amount of phosphorus in the iron is about 0&middot;7% the maximum permeability reached to 20, 000 and the hysteresis loss decreased to less than 1, 000 ergs. per sq. cm. per cycle; that is nearly correspond to three times in the maximum permeability and 60% in the hysteresis loss compared with the 3&middot;5% silicon-steel in the market. When the phosphorus content is more than 0&middot;5%, no ageing phenomena was obserbed. It was recognized that the proper annealing temperature exist by different phosphorus content to obtain best magnetic properties. In the investigation of the microscopic structure, the higher the phosphorus content in the iron the larger grain size was to be seen as in case of the silicon-steel, but it is not much remarkable when the phosphorus content reaches to more than 0&middot;5%. When the annealing temperature is raised to the recrystalized range which is seen from the constitutional diagram of Fe-P, the deleterious effects on the magnetic properties was observed.
