Asked in a 2000 paper

Zircon refractories have__________________?

Correct answer: D. All A., B. and C.

  • A. Low co-efficient of expansion
  • B. High RUL (1600°C) and refractoriness (> 2000°C)
  • C. High spalling resistance
  • D. All A., B. and C.

Explanation

Zircon refractories have low thermal expansion, high refractoriness above 2000°C, a high refractoriness-under-load value near 1600°C, and good resistance to thermal spalling. Therefore all three listed properties apply.
