Using High-Temperature Solar Installation to Study Refractory Materials in an Oxidizing Medium (In an Example of Beta-Alumina),

Abstract

High-aluminous aluminates of alkali and alkali-earth metals, usually referred to as beta-alumina, are used as solid electrolytes in the preparation of separators of cells of electrochemical elements of energy converters. These studies of thermal decomposition of beta-alumina have shown high possibilities for using a high-temperature solar installation to study the behavior of refractory materials in an oxidizing medium over a wide range of temperature under the conditions which ensure a high purity in the heating and melting processes.
