Use as a refractory

I just checked and though so far I've only found sales pages and company-sponsored material it does seem to be (becoming?) a common material. See for example this link. Is this reliable enough to remove the template? @CycoMa: pinging you because you seem to be the one that added it --Licks-rocks (talk) 10:20, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Regular Google turns up only commercial sites, as you've seen. Try Google Scholar; it turned up quite a few more scholarly sources on the use of andalusite as a refractory. --Kent G. Budge (talk) 15:00, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

yup. That did the trick. Removing the template and adding a source. Thanks for the tip!--Licks-rocks (talk) 17:28, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
