Conclusions
Satkinsk dolomitic magnesite fired in a rotary kiln using a cycle employed for Styl'sk dolomite can be used to obtain sintered powder with an apparent density 3.15 g/cm3.
Compared with the currently produced tarred dolomite-magnesite refractories, the tar-bonded converter refractories made on the basis of powder produced from dolomitic magnesite are characterized by higher densities, strength, and resistance to hydration.
Thus, Satkinsk dolomitic magnesite which is hardly used at the present time is a promising raw material for producing converter refractories.
