This investigation covers a survey of some cyanite, diaspor, and clay refractories. The work is divided into three phases: (1) diasporcyanite study, (2) diaspor‐clay and cyanite‐clay study, and (3) commercial production and tests. Results of routine tests made with each set of test specimens are given. The addition of 20% or more cyanite to diaspor tends to counteract the shrinkage of diaspor during continued use at high temperatures.
