Refractories and Industrial Ceramics Aims and scope

Abstract

Results of a study of the phase formation in topaz-containing rocks and clay-topaz compositions are reported. The percentage of topaz in its mixtures with refractory clay is shown to be an important factor controlling the formation of crystalline phases.
