Conclusions On the basis of results of a study of aluminosilicate concretes in the heated state, the following recommendations can be made for the use of these concretes, depending on the form of the binder and on the concentration of Al2O3 in the filler. Semiacid concrete in APB has fairly good strength and deformation properties, a high thermal-shock resistance, and can be used up to temperatures of 1350°C. Chamotte concrete in HAC is clearly not economical to manufacture. For performance, it can be totally replaced by chamotte concrete in AC or APB. The chamotte concrete in APB has better characteristics in the heated state than the concretes in other binders. It can be successfully used under conditions where there are sudden variations in the temperature and mechanical action. Aluminosilicate concretes in WG can reasonably be used in conditions of fairly intense abrasive action up to temperatures of 800°C. In places where the concrete is not subject to the action of molten metal or slag, it would not be reasonable to use concretes in WG containing 〉60% Al2O3. The high-alumina concretes in HAC have greater strength at high temperatures and therefore they must be used in those conditions; analogous concretes in APB can reasonably be used where there are sudden variations in temperature. The properties considered here of the concretes in HAC and APB are improved by increasing the concentration of Al2O3 and therefore the form of the filler for the concretes must be chosen in relation to the actual conditions of use.
