Structural analysis on spinel (MgAl2O4) for application in spinel-bonded castables

TL;DR: In this article, an intimate mixture of common hydrated magnesium salt and cheaper boehmite sol was used as a cost-effective precursor of reactive nanometric spinel (1:1) powder, which was gelled at controlled pH, temperature and time, and calcined at significantly lower temperature after soft mechanochemical treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of mullite and spinel coatings on graphite for improved water-wettability and oxidation resistance

TL;DR: In this article, a mixture of hybrid precursors having both organic and inorganic origins was used for spinel-coated graphite sols and their performance was compared in terms of oxidation resistance and water-wettability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Significant improvement of refractoriness of Al2O3–C castables containing calcium aluminate nano-coatings on graphite

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of alumina-carbon castables containing graphite flakes coated by nanosized Ca-doped γ-Al2O3 phases has been investigated in terms of refractoriness under load (RUL) and oxidation resistance tests.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanostructured cementitious sol gel coating on graphite for application in monolithic refractory composites

TL;DR: In this paper, a nanostructured sol gel coating of calcium aluminate (CaAl2O4) over flaky graphite has been prepared by a hybrid set of precursors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improvement of corrosion resistance of spinel-bonded castables to converter slag

TL;DR: The performance of spinel with 90% alumina and the conventional in situ spinel-bonded castables were satisfactory whereas the coprecipitated spinel was not commendable.
