Lining materials for metallurgical plant undergo substantial changes during use, which influences their operating parameters.We have examined the changes in composition and property of materials for lining aluminum electrolyzers after various working times by the use of special measuring systems. Measurements are presented on the properties of bottom blocks and joints, refractory and heat-insulating materials in the lining, and results are given on the phase composition after use. These properties are necessary for the simulation of physical fields on upgrading existing and future electrolyzers.
