Abstract

Compositions comprising 50-75% w/w of lime, 20-30% w/w of fluorspar (CaF.sub.2), and up to 20% w/w of ground aluminum, and methods to desulphurize molten ferrous metals, notably molten steels, by adding said compositions to molten ferrous metals in the ladle, but more preferably, by injecting the composition in particulate form into the molten body of ferrous metals, e.g., molten steels.
