Castable
In the context of ceramics, "castable" refers to a type of refractory material that can be cast into shapes. These materials are designed to withstand high temperatures and are commonly used in environments such as furnaces, kilns, and incinerators. Ceramic castables are typically composed of a mixture of ceramic aggregates, bonding agents, and additives that enhance their performance.
