Experiments were carried out to obtain high-grade fused chromitepericlase. It is shown that during the melting of batch consisting of raw magnesite and chromite ore the process of reducing the chromite ore to metallic ferrochromium is eliminated, which adversely affects both the content of Cr/sub 2/O/sub 3/ in the fused material, and also the commercial appearance of the resulting refractories. The authors developed a technology for preparing periclase-chromite refractories with chrommite-periclase constituents. The goods obtained possess good physicoceramic properties and a low content of silicites. The articles thus prepared were used to make the linings of the most critical parts of the converters which allowed an increase to be made in the duration of campaigns for the Kivset units of 1.5-2 times.
