Abstract

The research results of granulometric and chemical composition of acid electric-furnace slag of Kharkiv Iron & Steel Plant are presented in the paper. Rather high homogeneity of researched waste in relation to grain fineness along with wide variation in the fractional chemical composition is determined, which generates a need for pre-treatment when using in pigmental technology.
