EFFECT OF STEEL FIBERS ON REFRACTORY CASTABLES
Reinforcement of refractory castables with steel fibers improves their strength for cracking and spalling and expands the service life. The results show that raising the temperature from 700°C to 900°C causes an increase in porosityand decrease in ...

Mullite macro-needles for reinforcement of refractory castables
Ceramic macro-needles incorporation as reinforcement in commercial refractory castable was studied. Ceramic macro-needles (Ø2x20 mm) were made from kaolinite clay and gibbsite to obtain mullite as the main crystalline phase.

Paper 14: Developments in Refractory Castables
A short account, not intended for specialists, is presented of the constitution and general properties of refractory castable mixes. The basic factors affecting the performance of castable refractories are discussed and modern trends in the compounding of the mixes, and in the manufacture of the cement bond, are outlined. Attention is drawn to certain
