Refractories Aims and scope

Conclusions

As a result of improving the technology for manufacturing certain magnesite refractories we improved their quality and reduced the loss. Comparatively good qualitative factors and enhanced wear resistance in service are possessed by roof products made by a combined periclase-spinel and magnesite-chromite technology, incorporating in the batch both granular chromite and chromite milled together with magnesite powder.

The comparatively low loss and the excellent property factors are typical for steel casting nozzles made on the basis of magnesite powder obtained by burning magnesite in shaft furnaces. Mathematical statistical techniques were used to determine the distribution and mutual relationships between the property factors of some magnesite products. The marked mutual relationship between the quality factors indicates the possibility of using statistical methods for evaluating some properties of these products.
