New Standard from Last Update.

1. SCOPE

This classification covers shaped and unshaped refractories that have at least 60 percent of its chemical constituents as SiC. These refractories have excellent resistance to erosion and thermal shock as well as have a high hot strength and very high thermal conductivity. These refractories find use in many high temperature industrial applications, including ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy, power generation, waste heat recovery, ceramic kilns, cement kilns and incinerators.
