Fused Mullite

Fused Mullite is a light grey color fused mineral obtained from melting of high purity alumina and high quality quartz sand(silica) in proper ratio in large electric arc furnace. The raw materials of it and fusion process give it a unique needle shape mullite crystale, characterized by high melting point, chemical stability, low thermal conductivity and reversible thermal expansion, good thermal shock resistance, excellent mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. These physical and chemical characters make fused mullite an ideal mineral used in refractory industry and thermal resistant products.
