The inorganic phases belonging to the binary alumina-silica system exhibit a plethora of
excellent high temperature properties that make them useful for refractory applications …

This study presents a new lightweight corundum refractory (LCR) used for working linings of
high-temperature furnaces. The LCR contained microporous corundum aggregates …

Particle size of additive geomaterials could affect the cement–clay reaction, thereby
reducing strength. The effects of five particle sizes (A, B, C, D and E:> 75, 40–75, 20–40,< 20 …

The present work aims to investigate the effects of the solid-state thermal reactions at
different sintering temperatures on the phase transformation mechanisms and the …

This paper describes the production of alumina from Nawan kaolin by acid leaching with
sulfuric and hydrochloric acids. Kaolin was calcined at 850oC and was leached with 6 M …

In this study, the feasibility of using high-alumina refractory waste, namely, silicon carbide-
mullite brick (SMB) and refractory castable (RC), as alternative aggregates in high-friction …

Synthesis of gamma alumina from Kankara kaolin using simple novel dealumination,
precipitation and calcination steps and the product characterization have been presented …

In this work, the comprehensive utilization of spodumene waste residue-lithium slag is
achieved. An experimental scheme of hydrothermal preparation of nano-kaolinite and …

Processing of mullite and alumina based refractory ceramic by unidirectional dry pressing,
from two mixtures that include silica sand, pure alumina (PA) and recycled alumina (RA) is …

Concentration of spodumene from lithium pegmatite ore generates large amounts of tailings
that need to be recycled for sustainability and circular economy concerns. This study …
