Abstrakt: Trials were carried out with a ramming compound consisting of 80% zirconia partly stabilized in cubic form and 20% monoclinic zirconia binder activated by fine-grinding. The grain size distribution of the compound was 50% fraction 2−0.5 mm, 10% 0.5−0.09 mm, and 40% finer than 0.09 mm. This type of compound possesses adequate strength and high spalling resistance and is suitable for lining induction furnaces for heating billets to 2000-2300°C. It can also be used as heat insulation in other high-temperature equipment in which the medium used does not erode the lining. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
