Shrinkage

Refractory materials can undergo mineral formations or phase transformations when heated. These phase changes may result in either volume expansion or reduction. Upon cooling to room temperature, the material will possibly be larger or smaller than the original dimensions. This is evaluated by reheat tests, which are run at temperatures prescribed by ASTM for each class of refractory. This is reported as permanent linear and volume change.

What is linear change on reheating of refractory?

Linear change on reheating means that the size of refractory products is irreversible changed when the refractory products are heated to high temperature. A positive value indicates expansion which is called expansion of linear change on reheating; negative value indicates contraction which is called contraction of linear change on reheating.

Linear expansion apparatus?

Linear expansion apparatus is the apparatus used to measure the objects to these following properties: -> coefficient linear expansion -> coefficient thermal expansion -> specific gravity -> specific heat -> thermal conductivity -> thermal resistivity -> breaking strength and many others..

What is linear dielectric material?

A linear dielectric material is a material that exhibits a linear relationship between the applied electric field and the resulting electric displacement within the material. This means that the material's response to the electric field is proportional and follows simple additive principles.

Does the co-efficient of linear expansion depends on length?

No, the coefficient of linear expansion does not depend on the length of the material. It is a constant value that represents the fractional change in length per degree change in temperature for a specific material.
