High Temperature Mullite Kiln Shelves Refractory Slab For Magentic Materials

High temperature resistance Refractory Mullite slab for kiln

1.Description

Mullite makes the ceramic manufacture of products like catalytic converters possible. They constantly heat up and cool down quickly and must not crack because of the shock.These converters get their thermal shock resistance properties from a bonded matrix of low-expansion mullite crystals. These crystals form during firing between 1300 to 1400C (interestingly, cordierite crystals have a lesser thermal expansion along one axis than another). Thus, the better the density of the precursor mix and controlled the firing the better the properties of the cordierite material are.

While mullite ceramic vessels could be made (e.g. ovenware), the material has such a low thermal expansion it is very difficult (or impossible) to match a glaze (without crazing). Notwithstanding this, many recipes can be found for mullite ovenware or flameware. However these are seldom fired above cone 10 so any thermal shock resisting behavior they have is attributable to grog content or open fired matrix rather than to any cordierite development (which is of course not happening).
