description <p>In this paper, the effect of nano-Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> addition on the properties of aluminous cement containing MgAl<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> spinel was investigated. For this reason, the raw dolomite was used as raw material along with calcined alumina for the preparation of the aluminous cement. Then, the compositions containing different amounts of nano-Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> particles were fired at   1450 °C and their mineralogical compositions and microstructures were investigated. The setting times of prepared cements were measured after grounding and ball-milling. Besides, the slag resistance of refractory castables containing prepared cements was evaluated. The results showed that nano-Cr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> addition has effect on the increasing of spinel and CA<sub>2</sub> and decreasing of CA and C<sub>12</sub>A<sub>7 </sub>phases in the cement composition. The decreasing of C<sub>12</sub>A<sub>7</sub> leads to increasing of setting times of cement. Besides, the slag resistance of refractory castables containing prepared cements is improved due to increasing of spinel and decreasing of C<sub>12</sub>A<sub>7</sub> amount in the cement composition.</p><p>DOI: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.ms.21.1.5211">http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.ms.21.1.5211</a></p>
