Abstract
Andalusite-based refractories are characterized by superior thermal shock resistance. Although the demand for alternative raw materials is increasing, it is proving difficult to replicate the thermal shock behavior of andalusite with alternative materials. The physico-mechanical properties of andalusite refractories are well-studied. However, comprehensive chemical and microstructural analysis is still needed to fully understand factors influencing the thermal shock resistance. This investigation highlights the use of complementary microstructural techniques (3D digital microscopy, scanning electron microscopy–energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and micro-X-ray fluorescence) to analyze crack propagation as well as glass bridge formation and composition in aluminosilicate-based refractory castables. Andalusite-based refractories are compared with chamotte 45 and chamotte 60, before and after a thermal shock, as well as after an additional firing. Factors influencing the thermal shock resistance of aluminosilicate refractory castables include (1) crack shape, size, occurrence, and propagation (2) glass bridge formation, size, occurrence, and composition, and (3) aggregate-matrix interactions.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Ceramic Society contains records of original research that provide insight into or describe the science of ceramic and glass materials and composites based on ceramics and glasses. These papers include reports on discovery, characterization, and analysis of new inorganic, non-metallic materials; synthesis methods; phase relationships; processing approaches; microstructure-property relationships; and functionalities. Of great interest are works that support understanding founded on fundamental principles using experimental, theoretical, or computational methods or combinations of those approaches. All the published papers must be of enduring value and relevant to the science of ceramics and glasses or composites based on those materials.
Papers on fundamental ceramic and glass science are welcome including those in the following areas:
Enabling materials for grand challenges[...]
Materials design, selection, synthesis and processing methods[...]
Characterization of compositions, structures, defects, and properties along with new methods [...]
Mechanisms, Theory, Modeling, and Simulation[...]
JACerS accepts submissions of full-length Articles reporting original research, in-depth Feature Articles, Reviews of the state-of-the-art with compelling analysis, and Rapid Communications which are short papers with sufficient novelty or impact to justify swift publication.
