Problem of hexavalent chromium in the production of fusion-cast chromium-containing refractories

  • Published:
Refractories and Industrial Ceramics Aims and scope

Problems of the presence and formation of hexavalent chromium in raw materials and with arc furnace melting are discussed. It is shown that preparation of fusion-cast refractories is possible with provision of safe production conditions.
