Abstract Based on the principles of the electrochemical modifying treatment for molten cast iron, preparing ductile iron in ESR process tinder D.C. condition without adding spheroidizing inoculant alloys has been studied in laboratory. The key operation of ESR for producing ductile iron is to increase the silicon content of consumable grey iron electrode and use CaF2-based slags containing rare-earth chide or alkaline-earth oxide and magenisium fluoride. Under the condition of D.C. reversed polarity, the anodic corrosion reaction silicon at the consumable electrode tip leads to a decrease of ferrous oxide concentrationin molten slag, therefore, the cathodic reduction of magnesium canon or cerium cation at the interface between slag and metal pool happens easily.A small amout of nodulizing element such as Mg and Ce, being transferred from slag into metal pool make graphite spheroidizing in remelted ingot. This new method of producing ductile iron in ESR process seems to be useful for the development of new metallurgical technology.
