Scope

This Standard sets out methods for the sampling, preparation of sample and analysis of high alumina refractories and high alumina refractory materials. Procedures are described for determining -
(a) the loss on ignition; and
(b) the chemical composition, viz the amount of silicon, phosphorus, aluminium, iron, titanium, manganese, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and lithium present, expressed as the oxides of these elements.
Table 1.1 illustrates the typical range of composition of high alumina refractories and the associated form of expression. This Standard applies to materials whose compositions are within that range.
