Nowadays, magnesia carbon refractories are very important for the iron and steel industries. It is due to their unique properties, such as low wet ability with melt iron and steel. Therefore, it is important to extend the life of the refractory.

The paper discusses the material removal process in refractory ceramics eroded by hydro-abrasive jets. In particular, bauxite, sintered magnesia, and magnesia chromite are eroded. The influence of abrasive particle velocity, local exposure time, abrasive mass-flow rate, and abrasive type is investigated. Erosion depth, specific erosion rate, and geometry of the generated cavities are measured a...

As a result of a revision of the JIS system, the application of the hot wire method for determining thermal conductivity has been expanded from heat-insulating bricks to refractories with higher heat conductivity. In this regard, focusing on magnesia bricks, which are used in the safety lining of converters and a wide variety of other applications, the authors studied the possibility of applyin...

High-porosity magnesia phosphate paste (HPMPP) was prepared via the pre-foaming method. In the pre-foaming method, sintering treatment was not required. The bulk density and maximum compressive strength of the HPMPP prepared according to the ratio of water to solids (W/So) of 0.32 reached 464.00 ± 5.00 Kg/m(3) and 0.30 ± 0.05 MPa, respectively. The compressive strength increased with the increa...

Until the arrival of the theories of plate tectonics and seafloor spreading in the 1960s, the Earth’s mantle was generally believed to consist of peridotites of uniform composition. This view was shared by geophysicists, petrologists, and geochemists alike, and it served to characterize the compositions and physical properties of mantle and crust as “Sial” (silica-alumina) of low density and “S...

and hypochondriasis were only responsible for a very few limited and obstinate cases. The principal causes here were:? (?) Bad water. (?) Bad food. As regards bad water, two kinds of water were responsible for the disease :? (a) Muddy water. (b) Water containing in solution mineral salts such as magnesia, mica, etc. The first kind of water was the cause of the disease in the G-omal Valley. Thou...
