Using of raw materials from the region of Kursk magnetic abnormity in medical container production

The possibility of using natural and technogenic raw materials of KMA - quartzite sandstones - for the introduction of silicon oxide in the production of medical containers, as well as dust from electrostatic precipitators of the Oskol Electrometallurgical Plant as an unconventional dye for obtaining brown pharmaceutical containers has been investigated. The properties of experimental glasses based on quartzite sandstones were not inferior to industrial ones and corresponded to the requirements for medical containers. The prospects of staining the molten glass with the dust of electrostatic precipitators in the feeder channel are shown. Tab. 2, bibliography: 6 titles.
