Sulfur distribution ratios between CaO‐Al 2 O 3 slags and liquid iron were measured at 1873 K as a function of aluminum content using an alumina or a lime crucible. Activity coefficients of CaS relative to a solid standard state were obtained as 52&2.6 and 23&1.7 for the CaO‐Al 2 O 3 slags saturated with an Al 2 O 3 and a CaO crucible, respectively, in the concentration range up to the CaS solubility limit. From these results, logarithm of the equilibrium constant, log K CaS , for the calcium desulfurization reaction CaS(s) = Ca + S and the first‐order interaction parameter e S Ca ( e S Ca ) were estimated to be –8.72&0.27 and –269&28 (–336&35), respectively.
