Synthesis of Pigmented Structural Glass in a Plasma Glass-Melting Furnace
摘要
This study examines the feasibility of utilizing tailings from the beneficiation of banded iron formations (BIF) within the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly (KMA), along with waste from vanadium production, for the plasma synthesis of pigmented structural glass (PSG). Key design features of a specialized plasma glass-melting furnace are also outlined. The operational properties of the synthesized glass were evaluated, including its water resistance, frost resistance, microhardness, and phase composition. The color characteristics of the material were determined in the CIE L*a*b* color space.
