Oxy-fuel cutting, or flame cutting, severs ferrous metals by a rapid, exothermic oxidation process. First, a preheating flame raises the steel’s surface to its kindling temperature (approx. 870 °C or 1600 °F). A high-pressure jet of pure oxygen is then directed at the spot, initiating a chemical reaction, [latex]3Fe + 2O_2 \rightarrow Fe_3O_4[/latex], which forms molten iron oxide (slag) and releases heat.

The effectiveness of oxy-fuel cutting relies on a specific set of material properties. The metal’s ignition temperature must be below its melting point. If the metal melts before it oxidizes, the oxygen jet will simply blow away molten metal rather than sustaining the cutting reaction. This is a primary reason the process is highly effective for plain carbon steels but not for cast iron (high carbon content) or aluminum. Secondly, the oxide (slag) formed must have a lower melting point than the base metal. This allows the high-pressure oxygen stream to effectively blow the molten slag out of the cut, known as the kerf, exposing fresh metal to continue the reaction. The process is self-sustaining as the exothermic oxidation of iron generates significant heat, which helps maintain the kindling temperature along the cut path.

这种方法不适用于铝和铜等有色金属,也不适用于不锈钢。这些材料会形成高熔点且坚韧的氧化物(例如氧化铝、氧化铬),其熔点远高于母材。这些氧化物会形成一层保护层,阻止氧气射流到达底层金属,从而抑制切割过程。
