Conclusions
The most durable batcher inserts for casting low-carbon rimming steels are those produced from periclase processed from powders containing a minimum of impurities, i.e., 3% or less. A small proportion of monticellite (up to 2.5%) in the periclase product does not affect durability adversely to an appreciable extent. A combination of monticellite with other impurity phases (magnesioferrite, forsterite) to an aggregate proportion of 8–9% greatly reduces the durability of the insert in steelcasting. It was established that dicalcium silicate also has an adverse effect.
