Refractory Technology Silica bricks have low spalling resistance below 600°C, due to its High thermal diffusivity Low refractoriness Very high thermal conductivity High co-efficient of expansion upto this temperature High thermal diffusivity Low refractoriness Very high thermal conductivity High co-efficient of expansion upto this temperature ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Refractory Technology With increasing alumina content, the fusion point of high alumina refractories Increases May increase or decrease ; depends on its alumina content Remains constant Decreases Increases May increase or decrease ; depends on its alumina content Remains constant Decreases ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Refractory Technology Addition of grog in fireclay brick during its manufacture is advantageous, because it results in High strength & thermal spalling resistance Less addition of water to get a workable plasticity & lesser time required for drying the raw refractories and hence increased rate of production All of these Less shrinkage in heating, decreased apparent porosity & increased specific gravity High strength & thermal spalling resistance Less addition of water to get a workable plasticity & lesser time required for drying the raw refractories and hence increased rate of production All of these Less shrinkage in heating, decreased apparent porosity & increased specific gravity ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
