Refractory test-piece preparation — Gunning refractory panels by wet gunning techniques
ISO 18886:2016 specifies the procedures for the preparation of test pieces from refractory materials by wet gunning at ambient temperatures. The test pieces are for the determination of properties on wet-gunned products prepared under either "standard conditions" (as required for quality assurance or product development) or "site conditions". In the case of "site conditions", the purpose of the testing is to establish the properties pertaining to a given installation or a given set of installation conditions. In this case, the gunned panel is obtained during the on-site installation. Such parameters as activator addition (type, amount, method of addition), conveying pressure and curing conditions (temperature, orientation of the panel) applying during the preparation of the panel are as near as possible to the same parameters pertaining to the site installation. This procedure applies to refractory materials that can be transported through a gunning hose after having been mixed with the total water requirement for material placement. The consistency of these materials (see 7.5) is typically such that they would be suitable for placement by casting were they not to be transported through the gunning hose and applied by spraying. Refractory materials that are pneumatically conveyed in the "dry" state through a gunning hose, even after mixing with a portion of the total water requirement (the bulk of the water being added at the nozzle) are dealt with in ISO 20182. ISO 18886:2016 does not apply to the gunning of plastic refractory materials (refer to ISO 1927‑1).

properties on wet-gunned products prepared under either “standard conditions” (as required for
quality assurance or product development) or “site conditions”. In the case of “site conditions”, the

parameters as activator addition (type, amount, method of addition), conveying pressure and curing

to be transported through the gunning hose and applied by spraying.
Refractory materials that are pneumatically conveyed in the “dry” state through a gunning hose, even
after mixing with a portion of the total water requirement (the bulk of the water being added at the
nozzle) are dealt with in ISO 20182.
This International Standard does not apply to the gunning of plastic refractory materials (refer to
ISO 1927-1).

4 Apparatus
4.1 Gunned-material mould. The preferred mould for preparing samples of wet-gunned material is
enclosed on five sides as shown in Figure 1 a). An alternative mould is shown in Figure 1 b). In either case,
the surface being sprayed onto shall be square in shape and the mould shall have minimum dimensions
of (300 × 300 × 100) mm. The mould may be made from metal or timber, or a combination of both. It
should be of sufficient rigidity that it will not flex when material is sprayed onto it.
Interested parties shall agree on the size and type of mould to be used and these shall be stated in the
test report, along with the dimensions of the test panel produced.
A stainless steel expanded metal case, having the same mould dimensions as above, may be used by
agreement between interested parties. This type of mould is particularly useful during site installation
because it can be fitted to the anchoring, enabling the mould to be filled without undue disruption to
the gunning process.
4.2 Air pressure gauge, capable of measuring pressures up to 690 kPa ± 5 % at all pressures.
4.3 Weighing scale, capable of weighing masses of the order of 500 g to 0,1 g.
4.4 Drying oven, having fan-forced ventilation and capable of maintaining a temperature of
110 °C ± 5 °C.
4.5 Miscellaneous tools, e.g. trowel, shovel.
4.6 Thermometer, capable of measuring temperature within a suitable range (typically from −10 °C
to 90 °C) with a readability of 1 °C and an accuracy of ±1 °C.

5 Sampling
The sample for preparation of a test panel should be prepared in accordance with established sampling
principles, such as those given in ISO 1927-2.

6 Preparation of test pieces
6.1 Principle
Refractory material is mixed with the total water requirement and transported to a nozzle by suitable
means where air may be incorporated to convey the mix to the mould. Activator may also be added at
or prior to the nozzle to allow the mix to adhere to the target surface without slumping. Figure 2 shows
one example of an equipment set up for wet gunning.
6.2 Equipment
6.2.1 Conveying equipment, for conveying the material through the gunning hose to the gun nozzle.
Examples include double piston pumps, gunning machines that use pneumatic conveying, centrifugal
pumps and auger screws. The conveying equipment needs to have sufficient power to propel high-
density pre-mixed monolithic (unshaped) refractory materials through pipes and/or conveying hoses of
suitable diameter, over the required distance from the mixer to the surface b

Refractory test-piece preparation – Gunning refractory panels

1 Scope
This Standard specifies the procedures for the preparation of test pieces from refractory materials by wet
gunning at ambient temperatures. The test pieces are for the determination of properties on wet-gunned
products prepared under either “standard conditions” (as required for quality assurance or product
development) or “site conditions”. In the case of “site conditions”, the purpose of the testing is to establish the
properties pertaining to a given installation or a given set of installation conditions. In this case, the gunned
panel shall be obtained during the on-site installation. Such parameters as activator addition (type, amount,
method of addition), conveying pressure and curing conditions (temperature, orientation of the panel) applying
during the preparation of the panel shall be as near as possible to the same parameters pertaining to the site
installation.
This procedure applies to refractory materials that can be transported through a gunning hose after having
been mixed with the total water requirement for material placement. The consistency of these materials (see
section 7.5) is typically such that they would be suitable for placement by casting were they not to be
transported through the gunning hose and applied by spraying.
Refractory materials that are pneumatically conveyed in the “dry” state through a gunning hose, even after
mixing with a portion of the total water requirement (the bulk of the water being added at the nozzle) are dealt
with in ISO 20182:2008.
This Standard does not apply to the gunning of plastic refractory materials (Refer: ISO 1927-1).
