Technology is developed for preparing periclase-chromite composition refractories based on fused grains of increased thermal-shock resistance. Technology is created for preparing periclase composition refractories based on fused grains exhibiting a high service temperature (up to 1900 degrees C) and improved thermal shock resistance. Refractory material SHS-technology is developed on whose basis fused refractory objects, brickwork mortars, and torcrete mixes for hot torcreting are created. Refractory materials are turned out on an industrial scale in OAO Kombinat Magnezit. They are used for the most worn parts of linings such as the tuyere zone in horizontal converters, the slag belt of ore-roasting furnaces (ORF), in the reaction zone of a Waelz kiln, ORF outlet assemblies, Kivcet unit arches, and Vanyukov furnaces. Lining life is increased by a factor of 1.5 - 2.5.
