Sillimanite
Sillimanite is a naturally occurring mineral prized for its excellent refractory properties. With a high melting point and resistance to thermal shock, Sillimanite is an essential material in the manufacturing of refractory products, ceramics, and other high-temperature applications.
Applications
- Refractory Products: Essential for manufacturing refractory bricks and castables used in furnaces, kilns, and other high-temperature environments.
- Ceramics: Used in the production of ceramic products that require high resistance to heat and wear.
- Foundries: Employed in the foundry industry as a lining material for molds and furnaces.
- Glass and Steel Manufacturing: Acts as a raw material in processes requiring high-purity and temperature-resistant materials.
