The application relates to the problem of alloying a melt, preferably a titanium melt, with oxygen by adding formed articles such as pellets containing a master alloy such as TiO. The articles should fully and homogeneously disperse in the melt, while the carbon content of the melt should be kept below an allowable maximum, preferably below 0.04 wt. %. The formed article may also comprise iron or palladium. To solve this problem, the formed article consists of 70-82wt. % of a master alloy an 18-30wt. % of a high-carbon organic polymer such as ethylene vinyl acetate or a low density polyethylene. The homogeneous dispersion is achieved e.g. by the formed articles having a similar size as the other raw feed materials which are added to the melt. |
