Use Of Material From The Kursk Magnetic Anomaly Region In The Production Of Medical Containers

The possibility of using natural and technogenic materials from the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly region, namely, quarzite-sandstones for introducing silicon oxide in the he production of medical containers, as well as using electric filter dust from the Oskol'skii Electrometallurgical Works as a non traditional pigment for brown pharmaceutical containers are investigated. The properties of experimental glasses based on quartzite-sandstones are not inferior to industrial glasses and meet the requirements imposed on medical containers. The advisability of tinting glass mixture in the feeder channel using electric filter dust is demonstrated.
