Abstract

In  this  study  the  mixture  design  D-optimal method  was used to find  out the optimum amount of  silicon  carbide, graphite and  pitch as  carbon containing raw materials for a new  type of ramming mix for blast furnace iron runner. The  expert-design  software was  used to run the mixture design D-optimal method and it formulated 16 specimens to prepare and  evaluate the physical properties such  as dried and   fired strength.Twelve patterns  were studied to find the optimum formula. The  pattern with the highest level of desire ability equals to 78,5  % choose as  the optimum pattern  with mix  order of  quadratic, analysis transfer  of square and   chemical  composition  of  11,7   wt.  %  silicon carbide, 2,6 wt. % graphite and  5,7 wt. % pitchfor ramming mix in system of MgO‒SiO2‒SiC‒C. Ill. 2. Ref. 15. Tab. 4.
