Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
63 words
A refractory heat-insulating material consisting essentially of 45-75% by weight of aluminosilicate fibre; 1-20% by weight of an element selected from the class consisting of aluminium, magnesium and silicon in particulate form; 0-25% by weight of a particulate refractory filler; and 2-16% by weight of a binding agent consisting of starch and a colloidal silica binder prepared by drying a colloidal silica sol.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
63 words
A refractory heat-insulating material consisting essentially of 45-75% by weight of aluminosilicate fibre; 1-20% by weight of an element selected from the class consisting of aluminium, magnesium and silicon in particulate form; 0-25% by weight of a particulate refractory filler; and 2-16% by weight of a binding agent consisting of starch and a colloidal silica binder prepared by drying a colloidal silica sol.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
The refractory heat-insulating material of claim 1 wherein said refractory filler is a member selected from the group consisting of crushed coke, alumina, magnesia and silica.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
The refractory heat-insulating material of claim 1 wherein at least 99% by weight of the element in particulate form will pass a 0.053 mm opening mesh.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
The refractory heat-insulating material of claim 1 wherein said element in particulate form is aluminium.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
20 words
The refractory heat-insulating material of claim 1 wherein the aluminosilicate fibre is present in an amount of 48-60% by weight.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
93 words
A slab or sleeve suitable for use as a lining for a riser, feeder head, hot top or mould in the casting of steel comprising a refractory heat-insulating material consisting of 45-75% of its weight of aluminosilicate fibre, the remainder of the material consisting essentially of an element selected from the groups consisting of aluminium, magnesium and silicon in particulate form and present in an amount of 1-20% by weight and 2-16% by weight of a binding agent consisting of starch and a colloidal silica binder prepared by drying a colloidal silica sol.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
93 words
A slab or sleeve suitable for use as a lining for a riser, feeder head, hot top or mould in the casting of steel comprising a refractory heat-insulating material consisting of 45-75% of its weight of aluminosilicate fibre, the remainder of the material consisting essentially of an element selected from the groups consisting of aluminium, magnesium and silicon in particulate form and present in an amount of 1-20% by weight and 2-16% by weight of a binding agent consisting of starch and a colloidal silica binder prepared by drying a colloidal silica sol.
