Fluorides and chlorides of alkaline and alkaline-earth metals are used as additions, which enable improvement of various technological and metallurgical properties of the flux (Table 1), whereby one of the main requirements to fluxes for electroslag welding (ESW) and electroslag remelting (ESR) of titanium is complete absence of oxides, because presence in flux even in small amounts of such stable oxides as [Al.sub.2][O.sub.3], ZrO and Ti[O.sub.2] does not exclude possibility of titanium contamination by oxygen [2-3].
