RefractoryProducts
Refractory materials areused to provide refractory lining in furnaces, kilns, incinerators, andreactors. These materials have a high melting point (greater than 1,520 degreeCelsius). Refractory materials are subjected to various conditions such as hightemperature, abrasions and chemical corrosions, slag attacks, and chemicalreactions when they are used in refractory linings.
