The development of a plastic refractory

Abstract

A study was made of the possibilities of producing a plastic refractory using calcined kyanite, raw kyanite a refractory clay of high plasticity and sodium silicate as an air setting ingredient. Using 35 mesh calcined kyanite, 35 mesh raw kyanite, 100 mesh raw kyanite, 20 mesh A-l Sagger Mix refractory clay and sodium silicate, a plastic refractory was developed within certain statistical limits
