Abstract

Microscopic examination of used glass house refractories gives evidence about the transformations that have taken place during use, and the relative solubilities of constituents of the refractories in the glass. On this evidence it is concluded that high alumina refractories would resist the solvent action of the glass and the fluxing action of the soda in the furnace atmosphere better than fire clay refractories. Investigations are needed to find a new refractory mortar for use between silica and clay refractories in glass tanks.
