Solar Furnace Synthesis of Magnesia-Alumina Spinel and Some Properties of Spinel-Based Materials

摘要

Experimental data on the synthesis of magnesia-alumina spinel and solid solutions based on it in solar furnaces are presented. The microstructure of the synthesized material in the form of powders, grains, and blocks has been investigated. Their resistance to attack of aggressive borosilicate glass melts has been studied. The optical and refractory characteristics of melted spinel are presented.
