Refractories and Industrial Ceramics Aims and scope

Abstract

A mineralogical petrographic classification of the properties of refractory materials is proposed. By convention, three major groups—phase-sensitive, structure-sensitive, and specific-sensitive—are considered. In terms of this classificatory system, three routes towards improving actual and developing new advanced refractory materials are suggested: a phase-oriented (mineralogical) route, a structure-oriented route, and a combined route.
