Conclusions A study was made of the properties of combined grist mixtures of materials in the periclase-dunite-chromite system, the thermomechanical properties of the pressed and cast specimens, and their microstructure after firing at 1600°C. The best hardening effects in the above-pressed specimens were obtained with sodium polyphosphate and periclase powder; and the worst — dunite powder; chromite powder with sodium polyphosphate hardly sets at all. The material is not weakened or embrittled at 800°C and is well sintered at 1600°C. Thus, the σcomp value after firing at 1600°C increases by approximately one order. Casting, compared with pressing, impairs the thermomechanical properties of the specimens, but Δl and α remain practically constant. In order to obtain denser specimens from magnesite concretes it is desirable to use combined grinding of microgranular mixtures of periclase powder with additions of 15–25% dunite, and for volume-constant concretes — with additions of 30–60% chromite.
