ABSTRACT:
It has been discovered that refractories at their elevated use temperatures have electrical properties unique to semi-conductors. The electrical conductivity of refractories is changed by altering the defects in the metallic or nonmetallic ions of the refractory lattice, and the purity is controlled to prevent fluxing from occurring at the grain boundaries. The discovery makes possible either the increase or decrease in electrical conductivity of any semi-conducting refractory, since the theory is applicable to both materials wherein the defects occur in the metal ions of the refractory lattice and also to materials wherein the defects occur in the nonmetallic ions of the refractory lattice.
