The complete crystallization process of mold slag in the crucible (inner diameter: 6.2 mm) was successfully recorded in situ using a digital optical microscope and image processing software in an infrared furnace ( IR ‐ MOP ). The crystallization behavior of non‐volatile mold slag tested with the new method is consistent with the findings of differential scanning calorimetry ( DSC ) analysis. Although the volatilization ratios of volatile mold slag during both DSC and SHTT experiments are greater than 8%, it is less than 1.2% during IR ‐ MOP experiments equipped with an isolated observation system, which explains why the difference in the initial crystallization temperature measured by the three methods was very large. Therefore, IR ‐ MOP equipped with an isolated observation system can record and accurately measure the crystallization behavior of volatile mold slag.
