Astm C - 202 1993

The Deutsches Institut für Feuerfest und Keramik GmbH (DIFK) is a central institute with over 50 years of experience testing refractories. DIFK uses several methods to measure the thermal conductivity of refractories, including hot wire techniques according to ISO standards and a comparative method using a reference sample. DIFK can measure thermal conductivity of refractories up to 1600°C using specialized equipment, and this Monotonic Heating method can detect phase changes within samples. DIFK aims to provide neutral, expert testing and works with companies across the refractories industry.
