White fused mullite is created in an electric arc furnace, like white fused alumina oxide, using a high purity alumina but also adding in silica. This fused combination of materials has a unique crystal shape that lends well to certain applications. Applications: Investment cast shell or monoliths Kiln furniture Blocks for glass melting furnaces Other refractory applications Physical Characteristics: Melting Point: ~3362° F (1860° C) Shape: Orthorhombic Crystal Excellent thermal stability High resistance to thermal shock High resistance to chemical corrosion
