Research Professor Finally
Solves 30-Year Puzzle
Many Costly Difficulties
Overcome By Discovery
COLUMBUS (UP) A almpla solu
tion to the 30-year puazla of the
strange, destructible behavior of re-
Wiractory, or heat-reslatlng, brick
MWhen made from certain typea of
flinty clay found In Ohio and ad
Joining states, haa been discovered
by Prof. J. O. Everhart, member of
the research staff at Ohio State un
tverslty'a engineering experiment
station.
For three decades or more re
search workers and manufacturer
have had an almost continual head
ache over the mysterious, and cost'
ly, actions of the brick during Its
manufacture from this clay and
have pondered solutions as to why.
Blast furnace operators have placed
brick floor In the bottom of the
Stack, later to discover the brick
floating on top of the mass of molt
en metal.
Inclneratora have been put out
of commission because brick popped
out of the aides almost as rapidly
as they were put to use.
Vary In Size
Brick made In the top of the kiln
were as much as one-eighth Inch
longer than those at the bottom,
although they were all Intended to
be the same size.
, Kverhart's solution to these prob-
)tms Is merely to grind the clay Into
finer particles. Tills short solution
to such a weighty problem is im
portant to concerna In Ohio and
other states which use millions of
dollars worth of this kind of brick
each year, as well as to the manu
facturers. Elghtv percent of fire
clay products have as their major
constituent this flinty clay, found
In the coal reckons.
In his research work, Everhart
found this cisj nas a normal ahrlnk-
ge up to a certain temperature dur
ing the firing stage of manufac
turtng. After that temperature
about 3,100 degrees Fahrenheit Is
reached, the clay shows an abnor
mal expansion. Past the 9.500 degree
mark normal strinkage again occura
But It la between 2.100 and 3,500
degrees that many desirable quali
ties are obtained In refractory brlcK,
Carbon Retained
In the raw clay, Everhart observed
laminations or layers sometimes as
manv an 30 to an inch. When
chunk of this ctsy was heated to
3.100 degrees, spaces were noticeable
between the layers. The research man
then made a mlcroscoplo study of
By
clay as It Is ground under present
practices. He found the larger and
. more dense grains retained the car-Kbon-saturated
layers which caused
' bloating at certain high tempera
tures. A serlea of parallel cracks de
veloping at these layers In the grain
expanded rapidly aa the temperature
Increased. This phenomenon caused
what the Industry called "secondary
expansion."
By grinding the clay more finely
ao that these layers are broken and
the original lamination eliminated,
Everhart has made a brick which
performs under fire as good brick
should. He believes that through use
ef his theory manufacturers will do
away with "floating bricks," broken
Incinerators and bricks that do not
shrink uniformly.
