An experimental lot of unfired periclase-carbon parts was produced and tested in a DSP-25 arc steel melting furnace. The average wear rate of the experimental parts was 30% less than for PKhS parts and with a decrease in the lining thickness from 460 to 230 mm the wear rate dropped by 2-2.5 times. During service a complex infiltration-metasomatic zonality if formed. The metasomatism has an iron-silicate character. The wear of the periclase-carbon parts occurs primarily by fusion of the decarburized subzone of the working zone and of the scorified crust penetrated by silicates.
