The application fields of rare-earth metals (REM) for the fabrication of high-strength cast iron and structural steel are analysed. The physical and chemical fundamentals of industrial process and equipment are developed for the production of REM master alloys, basing on self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) process and out-of-furnace thermal reduction methods. Homogeneous multicomponent REM-alloys’ ingots for cast iron and steel alloying are fabricated.

Key words: REM alloys, reduction smelting, SHS process, fluorides, oxides, calcium, aluminium, nickel, reactor, burning rate.
