High co-efficient of expansion upto this temperature
High thermal diffusivity
Very high thermal conductivity

Refractory Technology
Addition of grog in fireclay brick during its manufacture is advantageous, because it results in

All of these
Less addition of water to get a workable plasticity & lesser time required for drying the raw refractories and hence increased rate of production
Less shrinkage in heating, decreased apparent porosity & increased specific gravity
High strength & thermal spalling resistance
