Soft breaking of electrode paste is a common issue in submerged arc furnace operations. It is usually caused by unstable raw material quality, improper baking temperature, excessive volatile content, or uneven current distribution inside the electrode.
When the paste softens too early, the electrode strength decreases, leading to higher consumption, unstable furnace performance, and even production interruptions.
Stable resistance, controlled volatile matter, and a well-balanced formulation are essential for reliable electrode performance in ferroalloy and nickel smelting industries.
