Using a method developed by the Institute the authors produced an experimental batch of synthetic mullite-corundum refractories containing more than 72% Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/. The properties of these refractories exceed similar properties for regularly produced articles close in composition, which enables them to recommend them for use in the roofs of arc electric steel-melting furnaces. The experimental batch of synthetic mullite-corundum articles is being sent for testing in DSP-100 furnaces at the Chelyabinsk Metallurgical Combine.
