Conclusions
Experimental batches ofα-alumina containing mineralizing additives were produced at various calcination temperatures in the rotary calcination kilns of the Dneprovsk Aluminum Plant.
The problem of producing an actively sintering alumina at a moderate calcination temperature on an industrial scale was resolved by using a mineralizing additive consisting of chlorine- and fluorine-containing compounds in the proportions of 1.0–2.5 and 0.2–0.3 wt. % in terms of Cl− and F− on the Al2O3.
The technology for the manufacture of dense corundum products fromα-alumina containing the mineralizing mixture has been introduced at the Podolsk Refractories Plant.
