Refractories spinel

Oxides. Although not widespread commercially, glass-ceramics consisting of various oxide crystals in a matrix of siUceous residual glass offer properties not available with mote common siUcate crystals. In particular, glass-ceramics based on spinels and perovskites can be quite refractory and can yield useful optical and electrical properties. [Pg.325]

Forsterite. Pure forsterite is rare in nature. Most natural magnesium orthosiUcates form soHd solutions of fayaUte, Fe2Si04, and forsterite. Forsterite refractories are usually made by calcining magnesium siUcate rock such as dunite, serpentine, or oHvine with sufficient magnesia added to convert all excess siUca to forsterite and all sesquioxides to magnesia spinels. [Pg.26]

Feldspars may be refractory as well or crystallized from partial melts. Whereas potassium feldspars are found to be mostly refractory, anorthite rich plagioclase may be newly formed. Pyroxene and spinel were identified in varying amounts but no olivine could be detected. Metals and iron oxide minerals (magnetite-hematite) are always present in BA, but have not been quantified yet. In Table 4 the amount and the ranges of measured mineral contents are summarized. [Pg.420]

CAIs are composed of a variety of minerals, primarily hibonite, perovskite, melilite, spinel, aluminum- and titanium-rich diopside, anorthite, forsterite, and occasionally corundum or grossite. They also show significant enrichments in refractory trace elements. CAIs exhibit a host of isotopic anomalies inherited from incorporated presolar grains or from the early nebula itself. [Pg.163]

The amoeboid descriptor for amoeboid olivine aggregates refers to their irregular shapes. AOAs tend to be fine-grained and porous, and have comparable sizes to CAIs in the same meteorite. They consist mostly of forsterite and lesser amounts of iron-nickel metal, with a refractory component composed of anorthite, spinel, aluminum-rich diopside, and rarely melilite. The refractory component is sometimes recognizable as a CAI embedded within the AOA. The AOAs show no evidence of having been melted, but some contain CAIs that have melted. [Pg.163]

Commercial sintered magnesia-spinel refractory materials are divided into three categories magnesia rich, stoichiometric, and alumina rich.1 Typical properties of magnesia rich spinel bricks are given in Table 14.1.2... [Pg.359]

MgO-spinel clinker is obtained by the same procedure, but with a substantial proportion of free MgO (75-85%). MgO-spinel is produced by sintering at temperatures of 1600-1800°C and a dense product is obtained. MgO-spinel refractory has better high temperature mechanical properties in arc furnace roof application compared to magnesia-chrome refractories, but it has lower strength than a high-alumina refractory. [Pg.363]

High-density spinel refractory brick is made by calcining (1200-1300°C for about 3 h) compacted powders and then sintering at 1700°C. The extent of spinel formation increases by calcination however, the powder mixture is not completely converted to spinel. Typically 10-15% of a-Al203 and 5-10% of MgO are observed by XRD, depending on the conditions of temperature, time and particle size of the reactants. [Pg.363]
