Abstract
Abstract A powdery composition for heat retention of feeder head comprising carbonized plant (i.e., baked vegetable material) containing a large amount of fibrous matter and at least one substance selected from refractory material, easily oxidizable metal, metal oxide and inorganic material effective for heat retention of feeder head, each of said substances having a particle size distribution of less than 50% in parts by weight of 48 to 200 mesh particles with the remainder being particles larger than 48 mesh and smaller than 200 mesh and the amount of said substance having a particle size of larger than 48 mesh being approximately equal to that of said substance having a particle size of smaller than 200 mesh.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
129 words
In a powdery composition for heat retention of feeder head which comprises from about 5 to about 25% by weight of a carbonized plant material and from about 75 to about 95% by weight of a mixture including at least one refractory material, at least one easily oxidizable metal, at least one metal oxide and at least one inorganic material effective for heat retention of feeder head; the improvement comprising each of the ingredients in said mixture having a particle size distribution, by the Tyler Standard Sieve System, of less than 50% by weight of 48 to 200 mesh particles, with the remainder being coarser than 48 mesh particles plus finer than 200 mesh particles which are present in a ratio of coarser to finer particles of approximately 1:1.
