Refractory castables are a type of unshaped refractory materials. They are a mixture of refractory aggregates, binders and admixtures, which can be used as mud after adding water (or liquid binder) and mixing. Refractory castables have a certain coagulation and hardening time after construction. Therefore, after casting and forming, they need to be cured for …
