Inhaltsangabe

The Testing of Clay Refractories: With Special Reference to Their Load Carrying Capacity at Furnace Temperatures examines how fire-clay bricks behave under heat and load. It explains why viscosity and vitrification matter for durability inside industrial furnaces, and how composition and firing conditions influence performance.


Written for engineers and manufacturers, this work outlines practical methods to evaluate refractoriness, porosity, and burn shrinkage. It covers the classification of fire clays, the influence of fluxes, and the importance of controlled heating rates. Readers will see how test results guide material selection and brick specifications.



  • How viscosity, vitrification, and pore closing affect load bearing at high temperatures

  • Laboratory tests for porosity, density changes, and softening behavior

  • Different clay types (kaolin, flint, plastic) and their refractoriness

  • Guidelines for selecting No. 1 vs No. 2 fire clays and drafting specifications


Ideal for readers working with high-temp refractories, brick manufacturers, and furnace designers seeking reliable benchmarks for performance and durability.
