Abstract

"In a recent survey of the refractories field, especially with respect to the softening point of fire brick, it was suggested to the author that the possibility of reheating certain fire brick, according to the specifications given by the American Society for Testing Materials, might produce a difference in pyrometric cone equivalent from that of the original or unreheated sample. At present, there is considerable lack of knowledge regarding the problem, as evidenced by the utter lack of literature on the softening point resulting from the reheating of fire brick" – Introduction, leaf 1.
