Conclusions
The Nikitov Dolomite Combine has produced an industrial batch of magnesite — spinel roof products containing fused spinel in the batch. The experimental refractories have very high quality factors.
Testing of these products in the roof of a large open-hearth furnace with intensive oxygen blow in the bath showed that their resistance is 19% higher than the resistance of roofs made from periclase — spinel brick in identical furnaces at the Krivoi Rog Metallurgical Factory (with a simultaneous increase in output of 3.1%)
