Fireclay
Fireclay is a refractory material that is produced by firing clay or kaolin at high temperatures. It is characterized by its high heat resistance and refractoriness, making it widely used in refractory applications. Fireclay is often used in the production of refractory bricks, cast iron pipes, crucibles and ceramic kiln materials. Its porous structure enables good heat storage and insulation, which makes fireclay an important raw material in the metallurgical and ceramics industry.
