This paper examines the effect of the removal of the minus 65 mesh particles in the new standard 20x50 product compared to the original 20x50 material.
The Effect of Iron Oxide Impurities on the Hot Properties of Mullite
To test the importance of impurity level on the refractory, samples of Virginia Mullite with static alumina contents and varying iron oxide contents ranging down to 0.1% were tested. Read this article to know the results!
Examining the Effect of the Partial Replacement of Calcined Alumina with Kyanite in a 60% Low Cement Castable
In this white paper, find out if the partial replacement of calcined alumina with Virginia Kyanite successfully improves castable properties.
A Novel Prime Coat Slurry Mineral for Aluminum Investment Castings
Learn how we discovered that Kyanite slurry can be considered a success for aluminum and copper alloys.
A Property Comparison of Commercially Available Sillimanite Materials
The expansion and mullitization of the various sillimanite group minerals in this study were examined and compared. Overall, kyanite has been proven to have more expansion that either sillimanite or andalusite.
