What is BS EN 993-11 - Resistance to thermal shock of dense shaped refractory materials about?
BS EN 993-11 is a European standard that discusses the determination of resistance to thermal shock of dense shaped refractory materials.
BS EN 993-11 describes two alternative methods for determining the resistance to thermal shock of dense shaped refractory materials by an air quenching method, which proved to give the most reliable results when compared with the behaviour of refractories in furnace linings.
BS EN 993-11 applied to unshaped refractory materials.
Who is BS EN 993-11 - Resistance to thermal shock of dense shaped refractory materials for?
BS EN 993-11 on resistance to thermal shock of dense shaped refractory materials is useful for:
- Dense shaped refractory products manufacturers
- Casting and moulding industries
- Mechanical engineers
- Quality control personnel
Why should you use BS EN 993-11 - Resistance to thermal shock of dense shaped refractory materials?
Thermal shock resistance is the property of a material that makes it resistant to sudden and rapid temperature changes. Refractory materials include dense shaped refractory products, refractory bricks insulating bricks, fiber-based refractory products as well as unshaped products.
Thermal shock can cause problems in the manufacturing process that use refractory products. You can use BS EN 993-11 to determine the resistance to thermal shock of dense shaped refractory materials which will enable you to understand the extent to which take further business decisions accordingly which will increase efficiency and reduce costs.
BS EN 993-11 helps you by providing a test method for determining the resistance to thermal shock of dense shaped refractory materials at ambient temperature, which can be useful for various industries that use refractory products. This would be crucial to ensure optimal operational efficiency, strength, and long service-life for your specific engineering and product needs.
BS EN 993-11 enables you to establish standardised processes for ensuring the optimal functioning of refractory products, by reducing the risk of cracks and other damages and unsafe practices.
