Conclusions
A composition of mullite-corundum ramming compound has been developed with production of an experimental lot at Semiluki Refractory Plant. This compound was used to line the tuyere assemblies of No. 2 Blast Furnace of Kosogorsk Metallurgical Plant, which are operating successfully and provide a saving as the result of an increase in life and a decrease in heat losses.
