Abstract
The packing characteristics of forsterite grog have been studied with a view to arriving at a suitable particulate composition for producing refractory bricks under commercial conditions. A modification of Westmans apparatus was used/or determining packing densities. -5 + 7 B.S.S. mesh was chosen as coarse and- 72 as economically attainable fines. On the basis of the experiments it was found that a mix consisting of 45 per cent of - 5 + 7 fraction, 25% of -36 +52 fraction and 30% of - 72 fraction, gave a packing density of 2.44 gms./cc. This value did not vary for slight alterations of the particulate composition and was considered satisfactory.
