Mold fluxes containing transition metal oxides, FeO and MnO, were designed based on the composition of commercial mold fluxes. Infrared transmittances of disc flux samples were measured with an FTIR spectrometer at room temperature. Extinction coefficient and absorption coefficient were calculated using Beers Law. A radiative heat exchange model was developed. The relationship between the radiation heat flux and the content of transition metal oxides was determined by experiment and analyzed using the model. The result indicates that adding MnO and FeO has a negative effect on radiative heat transfer through disc flux samples. The radiation heat flux through the MnO and FeO containing samples was 20–50% smaller than that through basic fluxes. The decrease in radiation heat flux was attributed to the changing of molecular structure and crystallization of the fluxes. Mn2SiO4, Fe2SiO4 and other minor phases were also found in the samples containing MnO and FeO, respectively.
