Conclusions
A reduction in the pressing rate improves the factors of ladle and blast furnace refractories, since it affords the possibility of increasing the permissible upper limit for the pressing force, starting from the condition that there are no overpressing cracks.
In order to obtain refractories with a low porosity it is desirable to prepare ladle and blast furnace brick with 5.0–5.5 pressings per minute with an average pressing rate of 9–11 mm/sec.
