The hardened crust of the OS fly ashes, which consist of glazed (CaS[O.sub.4], [K.sub.2]S[O.sub.4], [Ca.sub.2]Si[O.sub.4], etc.) minerals, blocks the sulphating of the free calcium oxide (CaOfree in Fig.
In subsequent studies used the 35 %-solution of calcium nitrate Ca[(N[O.sub.3]).sub.2] and determines the degree of conversion (hydration) of calcium oxide CaO therein.

The lime kiln converts this to calcium oxide (slaked lime), which is then reused in the pulp production process.
The method is comprised of heating an animal skeletal material to a temperature of at least 1000[degrees]C to convert at least part of the calcium carbonate in the skeletal material to calcium oxide and produce a calcined product; contacting at least part of the calcined product with water to produce a particulate material containing calcium hydrate; dispersing the particulate material in a liquid carrier to produce a coating composition comprising the particulate material; and applying the coating composition to a metal surface to produce a protective coating thereon.
