Calcined Mullite Aggregate

Calcined mullite aggregate consists of crushed and heat-treated mullite grains used as a raw material in high-temperature refractories and castables. Classified under HTS 2508.60.00.00 as calcined mullite among other refractory earths.

Mullite Chamotte Grogs

Mullite chamotte grogs are fired, crushed mullite particles used as aggregate in refractory brick formulations. Classified under HTS 2508.60.00.00 alongside chamotte or dinas earths as processed refractory materials.

Bauxite-Derived Calcined Mullite

Bauxite-derived calcined mullite is produced by calcining bauxite to form the mullite phase, used in abrasive refractories. HTS 2508.60.00.00 covers this as calcined mullite distinct from raw bauxite ores.

Micronized Mullite Flour

Micronized mullite flour (D50 <5μm) serves as a fine filler in technical ceramics and casting slips. Remains under HTS 2508.60.00.00 as processed mullite powder, not chemical preparations.

Synthetic Mullite Powder

Synthetic mullite powder is a high-alumina ceramic material produced by sintering or fusing alumina and silica, used primarily in refractory applications. It falls under HTS 2508.60.00.00 as mullite, a specific aluminosilicate mineral classified among other clays and earths, whether or not calcined.

High Purity Mullite for Investment Casting

High purity mullite specifically graded for investment casting shells provides thermal stability and low thermal expansion. Falls under HTS 2508.60.00.00 as specialized mullite earth for industrial refractory use.
