The refractory mixes are prepared and cast into bricks. The corrosion resistance for
each refractory mix is measured by exposing bricks formed from the refractory mix to
blast furnace slag. The corrosion resistance is measured in an induction furnace by
immersing the bricks in molten metal having a layer of blast furnace slag thereon. The
blast furnace slag has a chemistry as set forth in TABLE II:
