Alumina
High-Alumina Mortars are used specifically in extremely high-temperature refractory applications. Included in this category are Phosphate-bonded mortars which have high refractoriness. This type of mortar is used with High-Alumina brick.
Basic
Often used with Basic Brick, Basic mortar has excellent resistance to corrosion in many refractory applications. Basic mortar can be used with all four types of brick and can also provide the final bond between regular firebrick and acid-proof brick.
