Hot slag resistance of refractories

Conclusions It is proposed to test refractories for hot-slag resistance by which is meant the complex property typifying the wear resistance of refractories with the single-sided action of high temperature and slags and subsequent sharp cooling.A laboratory gas-oxygen furnace design was developed for testing the slag resistance with one-sided heating with the aim of forming zones in the specimens.The spalling resistance of zonal magnesite-chromite and periclase-spinel goods was determined.According to the slag resistance and operating spalling resistance the periclase-spinel refractories are better than the spalling-resistant magnesite-chromite.
