Because of the numerous advantages of specialty refractories, such as availability, cost, ease of installation, etc., in industrial applications, their utilization has increased significantly in recent years. A large portion of that increase involves the usage of refractory concrete, and thereby the effect of water content or consistency on properties and performance acquires increased importance.

A wide variety of aggregates, both dense and lightweight is used in refractory concretes. There are also several types of cement. Thus a wide variety of refractory concrete products with markedly different properties is available. Installation, curing, drying and heating practices also affect the properties of refractory concretes markedly.
