Abstract

Abstract A process is disclosed for imparting an increased corrosion resistance to electromelted refractory materials of the AZS type (alumina, zirconia, silica) comprising crystalline phases and one vitreous phase, the process being characterized in that the refractory material is subjected to a controlled thermal treatment at temperatures between 1300*C and 1600*C. The starting material has a chemical composition, expressed in oxides, within the following weight ranges: Al2O3 45-65%, ZrO2 10-40%, SiO2 12-20%, Na2O 0.8-1.4%, corresponding to the following weight ranges of the individual phases: Corundum 30-60%, Baddeleyite 10-40%, Mullite 0-40%, vitreous phase 15-25%.
