Refractories and Industrial Ceramics Aims and scope

Abstract

The resistance of magnesian spinellide refractories to molten slag attack is studied and effects associated with the material composition and the microstructure of test specimens are discussed. The mechanisms of corrosion wear and chemical reactions involved are considered in detail. Slags with a basicity of 1.9 – 2.1 react with periclase to yield spinel, calcium orthosilicate, and monticellite. To prevent the chemical corrosion of periclase, sintered periclase or alumina as additions to the slag are recommended for use.
