A Comparison Of Silicates Of Sodium And Potassium As The Bonding Agent In Cold-Set Refractory Cements, Kenneth Frederick Sheckler
A Comparison Of Silicates Of Sodium And Potassium As The Bonding Agent In Cold-Set Refractory Cements, Kenneth Frederick Sheckler
Bachelors Theses
"The insistent demand for higher grade refractories has resulted in the manufacture of a product which will withstand higher temperatures, have greater slag resistance, greater resistance to spalling action and deformation under load. These better grades of refractory materials have been developed as the result of extensive research on the part of the manufacturers. In order that these higher quality refractories may be employed with the best results, it is necessary that they be set with a refractory cement which also possesses these desirable properties. The commercial refractory cements may be divided into two classes according to their method of …
The Development Of A New Process For The Manufacture Of Insulating Refractories, Miles E. Tyrrell
The Development Of A New Process For The Manufacture Of Insulating Refractories, Miles E. Tyrrell
Bachelors Theses
"In as much as the grinding of insulating brick to size after the firing operation is one of the most important and at the same time one of the most expensive operations involved in their manufacture, it was felt that the development of a method for manufacture of insulating brick which would do away with the necessity of grinding after firing would be a very worth while project. With this object in mind it was decided that the logical method would be to incorporate the pore structure in the mix while green and at the same time to add some …
The Development Of Spinels In Two Component Coloring Oxide Systems And Their Applications As Underglaze And Overglaze Colors, Michael Edward Green
The Development Of Spinels In Two Component Coloring Oxide Systems And Their Applications As Underglaze And Overglaze Colors, Michael Edward Green
Bachelors Theses
"For many years the fact has been known that when two or more of the coloring oxides are intimately mixed together and fired, there is a reaction between the components of the mixture. Little is known of these reactions - whether they are chemical, physical or mineralogical changes in the nature of the substances. The purpose of this investigation has been to ascertain the true nature of these reactions and the effect of the changes in the two components making up the system, upon their uses as underglaze and overglaze colors as applied in the ceramic industry"--Introduction, page 1.
