Dear Mark Issenberg.=20

I suggest you contact all of the Refractory Manufacturers in your =
country for their data sheets relating to Castable Refractories, =
outlining your purpose or proposal.

If you are going to use Sodium Chloride or Sodium Carbonate at well =
elevated temperatures my suggestion is to use a grade you can afford =
that has the highest proportion of Alumina in its composition, either as =
a chemical or as a mineral. Be guided by their technical staff.

Best regards,

Ivor Lewis.
