Abstract: | Conclusions We have studied the properties of the refractories prepared from periclase-lime clinkers with a CaO concentration of 2 to 60%. It is established that as the concentration of CaO is increased, the rate also increased at 1500–1650°C; the degree of dissolution of the refractories in slag is reduced; and in connection with this, their wear resistance is also lowered when tested under conditions simulating, in a first approximation, normal production conditions.The wear-resistance of the fired, pitch-impregnated refractories is higher than for the resin-bonded refractories of the same composition; this is the result of their greater density and strength at the test temperatures. The stability of the resin-bonded refractories made from synthetic clinker with 20% CaO is roughly 20% higher and that of the pitchimpregnated fired refractory 40–50% higher than the resistance of the resin-magnesite refractories normally used in production.Translated from Ogneupory, No. 5, pp. 43–48, May, 1981. |
