Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The chemical and mineralogical composition of sintering batch is determined by chemical and differential thermal analysis. Local clay is found to melt at the lowest temperatures and may be used to obtain chrome sinter. Mathematical modeling of the sintering of chrome fines permits the determination of the optimal sintering parameters. On the basis of this research, high-quality chrome sinter is obtained for the electrosmelting of ferrochrome.
