Conclusions
Investigation have been made on development of the production parameters for silicon carbide refractories from SiC, C, and Si. It has been shown that high quality parts are obtained with firing and cooling of the refractories in two gaseous media providing synthesis of a combined binder and high properties. The parts produced are used for protection of blast furnace tuyere noses.
