Frequently asked questions about refractory materials<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

What are refractory materials?
\n<\/strong>Refractory materials are those materials capable of “reflecting” an increase in temperature. This is achieved thanks to having a low coefficient of thermal diffusion<\/strong>, making it easier to refract this heat energetically than to absorb it.<\/p>\n

What are refractory materials made of?
\n<\/strong>Any family of materials can contain a refractory, but the most common are ceramic<\/strong>, since its structured crystalline structures have patterns that hinder heat transmission.<\/p>\n

Can a refractory material burn?
\n<\/strong>The refractory materials tend to be, for the most part, fire-proof<\/strong>, since they usually come from different types of oxides. This does not mean that they do not degrade or decompose at certain temperatures.<\/p>\n

Are refractory materials very hard?
\n<\/strong>It depends on the form in which they are presented, since they can be found in the form of solids with a high resistance to compression<\/strong>, in blanket forms to adapt flexibly to any shape, and even in a wet format, so that when drying adapt the desired rigid shape.<\/p>\n
