Abstract

Abstract A nonfibrous castable refractory concrete, having a deflection temperature under load above 1000° C. and a compressive strength higher than 1450 Newton/cm 2 , comprising grains bound by a hydraulic binder and having a content by weight of aluminum expressed as Al 2 O 3 of from 40 to 60%, a content by weight of calcium expressed as CaO of from 4 to 14%, a content by weight of silicon expressed as SiO 2 of from 20 to 60% and a content by weight of fluorine of from 0.1 to 10%, a part of said fluorine being present as alkali or alkaline earth metal fluoride. The invention also provides a process for making said concrete.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 152 words
A nonfibrous castable refractory concrete nonwettable by molten aluminum, having a deflection temperature under load above 1000° C. and a compressive strength higher than 1450 Newton/cm 2 comprising grains bound by a hydraulic binder and having a content by weight of aluminum expressed as Al 2 O 3 of from 40 to 60%, a content by weight of calcium expressed as CaO of from 4 to 14%, a content by weight of silicon expressed as SiO 2 of from 20 to 60%, a content by weight of sodium, expressed as Na 2 O less than 2%, and a fluorine-containing material, consisting of F 2 Ca in an amount between 1 and 2% by weight or consisting of a mixture 0.8-1.2% by weight of alkali or alkaline-earth metal fluosilicate and 0.2-0.8% by weight of F 2 Ca, said fluorine-containing material being distributed uniformly throughout the mass of said concrete in a solid form.
