Abstr act. Reasons and mechanism of cordierite-mullite refractory materials destruction in the ovens for glazing ceramic wares baking have been examined. The change of elemental and phase compositions of refractory surface layers under the influence of cyclic action of water vapour and volatile components of glazing coating has been established. The ways of increasing cordierite-mullite refractory materials longevity have been proposed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
