Notes

High silica, air and heat bonded plastic refractory with graphite
It has been specially designed to resist penetration and erosion by highly acidic, iron rich slags or iron rich mattes. In a 'high workability' version, it can also be used as a thin, expendable lining for iron ladles or for repairing spouts and lips of these ladles.

Typecodes	Clay Other Clays that are not kaolins, ball clays or bentonites. For example, stoneware clays are mixtures of all of the above plus quartz, feldspar, mica and other minerals. There are also many clays that have high plasticity like bentonite but are much different mineralogically.
