Application of Digital Analysis Technology in Refractory Petrographic Analysis

Six specimens of fused cast AZS 33#material were taken as samples,and their chemical compositions and physical properties( initial separating temperature o glass phase,corrosion amount in 24 h,glass phase seepage,and bulk density) were tested; low powered backscattered electron images of the samples( three for each sample) were taken by a scanning electronic microscope with a reinforced backscattering probe. Then,firstly,the images were processed,and the phase compositions(relative contents of pores,matrix,alumina- zirconia eutectoid and primary baddeleyite) of the samples were obtained by counting. Secondly,the correlation coefficients of all parameters were calculated; indistinctive coefficients and unimportant variables were eliminated by F- test. Thirdly,the roadmap of the parameters was established and explained according to professiona knowledge.
