abstract={This paper presents a study of the most important factors influencing the sintering process spinel (MgAl<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB>) Minutes from the oxides of aluminum (Al<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>4</SUB>) and Magnesium (MgO) percentages by weight (MgO 28wt%, Al2O3 72wt%). The traditional method called solid-state reaction (SSR), single firing stage and the impact of these factors on the physical properties, and thermal as well as the fine structure and morphology of the ceramic product. It formed Spinel models through a steel mold and shed pressure (14 Mpa) using hydraulic piston at temperatures (1200, 1400ˇăC) and soaking time (2 h) with the study of the effect of adding oxide calcium (CaO) by weight (0,2,4,6,8 wt%) spinel on the properties and behavior as sintered the research study of the most important physical characteristics (density, porosity) and (Thermal Conductivity). The results showed that the density increased and porosity decreased with higher temperatures due to the process of sintering, as it reached the highest density at the temperature of burning 1400ˇăC which (1.88 g/cm<SUP>3</SUP>), which is porosity (47.48 %). Thermal conductivity was the best value (5.071 K w/cm. ˇăC). As well as the study of (XRD, SEM). The calcined specimens spinel were characterized by XRD, It showed the presence of developed spinel also showed that the best catalyst is CaO, and (SEM). It showed that high temperature sintering temperatures increase the regularity of the Grain Growth and cohesion in the bloc, as well as minutes from the acquisition of the spherical shape of the minutes spinel.},
