Refractory
Refractory materials are specialized substances designed to withstand extremely high temperatures, making them essential in various high-temperature industrial processes. These materials maintain their strength, structure, and chemical integrity even when exposed to temperatures well above 1,000°C (1,832°F). Refractories are commonly used in the lining of furnaces, kilns, incinerators, reactors, and other equipment where high heat is a critical factor.
