After application by trowelling, the sidewall and bottom of the shell are once again quite level and flat, which provides the best surface for the maximum transfer of heat. This mortar promotes the maximum heat transfer between the silicon carbide or carbon sidewall or endwall block and the newly aligned shell. The water addition to this mix has been minimized to maximize the final bond strength and provide the highest thermal conductivity possible.
