High alumina refractory compared to fireclay bricks have____________________?

Correct answer: D. High resistance to thermal shock and creep

  • A. Less load bearing capacity
  • B. Less resistance to slag attack
  • C. Low refractoriness
  • D. High resistance to thermal shock and creep

Explanation

High-alumina bricks withstand high temperatures, creep and slag attack better than ordinary fireclay bricks. The other choices contradict these advantages because high-alumina refractories have greater refractoriness and load-bearing capacity.
