Which property is important for bricks used in the combustion chamber & dome of blast furnace stoves ?
A. High refractoriness
B. High resistance to spalling
C. High strength and density
D. All A., B. and C.
A. High refractoriness
B. High resistance to spalling
C. High strength and density
D. All A., B. and C.
A. Less shrinkage in heating, decreased apparent porosity & increased specific gravity
B. High strength & thermal spalling resistance
C. Less addition of water to get a workable plasticity & lesser time required for drying the raw
refractories and hence increased rate of production
