Solid particle erosion tests have been conducted on three different alumina-based refractories at elevated temperatures up to 1400 °C, using sharp SiC particles between 325 and 830 μm in diameter. The impact speed is 50 m/s and the impact angle is varied between 30° and 90°. The objective of this st...
