What is BS EN 12698-1 – Chemical analysis of nitride bonded silicon carbide refractories about?
BS EN 12698-1 is a European Standard that discusses the chemical analysis of nitride bonded silicon carbide refractories. BS EN 12698-1 is the first part of a multi-part series that describes the methods for the analysis of all refractory products containing nitride and oxynitride bonded silicon carbide. These methods are described irrespective of the silicon carbide level.
BS EN 12698-1 includes details of sample preparation, general principles of chemical analysis and detailed methods for the determination of carbon, silicon carbide, free aluminium, free silicon, total nitrogen and oxygen.
Who is BS EN 12698-1 - Chemical analysis of nitride bonded silicon carbide refractories for?
BS EN 12698-1 on chemical analysis of nitride bonded silicon carbide refractories is useful for:
- Refractory product Manufacturers
- Materials Engineers
- Any entity involved in the testing of refractory products
- Glass and ceramic industry
Why should you use BS EN 12698-1 – Chemical analysis of nitride bonded silicon carbide refractories?
Refractories are highly in demand for their various properties making them useful in various industries. Nitride bonded silicon carbide refractories have high thermal conductivity, superior thermal shock and oxidation resistance. They improve the thermal conductivity and enable rapid cooling.
BS EN 12698-1 guides you in determining and analysing various chemicals like nitrogen, free silicon, free aluminium, free silica, carbon and free alumina in refractories for evaluating the performance and efficiency of the refractory products.
It takes proper execution of a lot of processes to ensure the optimum performance of refractories. This is where you could use BS EN 12698-1 to ensure uniformity as well as the proper functioning of the refractories concerning the chemical composition.
