Abstract:The role of alumina dispersant as a flow modifier, completely replacing fume silica, on the properties of preformed and in situ spinel‐containing low cement high alumina castables was investigated with variations in spinel content and granulometry. Both 10 and 20 wt.% spinel‐containing compositions were prepared using preformed spinel or magnesia in alumina castable compositions with vibratable and self‐flowing consistency. The castables underwent conventional processing methods and accessed for various refrac… Show more
