1、Designation:C7112Standard Terminology Relating toRefractories1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C71;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.Anumber in parentheses indicates the year
2、 of last reapproval.Asuperscriptepsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This terminology covers terms particularly related torefractories and encompasses raw materials,manufacture,finished products,applications,and testing procedures.1.2 When any of th

6、cance and Use3.1 This terminology ensures that terms peculiar to refrac-tories are adequately defined so that other standards in whichsuch terms are used can be understood and interpreted prop-erly.3.2 This terminology is useful to those who are not conver-sant with the terms related to refractories
7、.However,it is also aready reference for those directly associated with refractoriesto resolve differences and ensure commonality of usage,particularly in the preparation of ASTM standards.3.3 Although this terminology is intended to promote uni-formity in the usage of terms related to refractories,
8、it cannever be complete because new terms are constantly arising.The existence of this terminology does not preclude the use ormisuse of any term in another context.4.Terminology4.1 Definitions:abrasion of refractories,nwearing away of refractorysurfaces by the scouring action of moving solids.acid
