Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
56 words
A refractory composition consisting of from 45 through 85 weight percent chromic oxide, and 15 through 55 weight percent alumina, said composition consisting of a fused coarse grain fraction of -4 mesh and a fine grain fraction of -325 mesh forming a bonding matrix, said fine grain fraction comprising 40 through 100 weight percent chromic oxide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
56 words
A refractory composition consisting of from 45 through 85 weight percent chromic oxide, and 15 through 55 weight percent alumina, said composition consisting of a fused coarse grain fraction of -4 mesh and a fine grain fraction of -325 mesh forming a bonding matrix, said fine grain fraction comprising 40 through 100 weight percent chromic oxide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
A refracrtory composition in accordance with claim 1 wherein said fused coarse grain fraction comprises 70 through 75 volume percent and said fine grain fraction comprises 25 through 30 volume percent.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
111 words
A method of manufacturing a refractory brick having high resistance to siliceous slag comprising the steps of: providing a size graded batch having a coarse grain fraction of -4 mesh comprising 70 through 75 volume percent and a fine grain fraction of -325 mesh comprising 25 through 30 volume percent, said fine grain fraction comprising 40 through 100 weight percent chromic oxide, said batch consisting of from 45 through 85 weight percent chromic oxide and 15 through 55 weight percent alumina; mixing a bonding agent with the batch to obtain a formable mix; pressing the mix to form a brick-like shape; and drying and burning the shape to form said brick.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
111 words
A method of manufacturing a refractory brick having high resistance to siliceous slag comprising the steps of: providing a size graded batch having a coarse grain fraction of -4 mesh comprising 70 through 75 volume percent and a fine grain fraction of -325 mesh comprising 25 through 30 volume percent, said fine grain fraction comprising 40 through 100 weight percent chromic oxide, said batch consisting of from 45 through 85 weight percent chromic oxide and 15 through 55 weight percent alumina; mixing a bonding agent with the batch to obtain a formable mix; pressing the mix to form a brick-like shape; and drying and burning the shape to form said brick.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
72 words
In a method for increasing the siliceous slag resistance of a chrome-alumina composition wherein the improvement comprises the steps of: providing a size graded batch of fused chrome and alumina including a -4 mesh coarse grain fraction and a -325 mesh fine-grain fraction; and adding sufficient quantities of fine grain chromic oxide to said fine grain fraction such that 40 through 100 weight percent of said grain fraction consists of chromic oxide.
