      abstract     = {In high temperature processes in the basic industry, e.g.
                      steel mining, refractories are applied. To achieve a
                      sufficient thermal shock resistance carbon containing
                      refractories are used in steel mining, despite the fact that
                      the utilization of carbon leads to higher heat losses and
                      carbon pickup. To reduce the heat loss, to govern the carbon
                      pickup and to enable innovative process routines for the
                      clean steel technology novel carbon-reduced and carbon-free
                      refractories are being developed.To assess the application
                      potential and to support the ongoing improvement of selected
                      carbon-reduced and carbon-free refractories the thermal
                      shock performance is investigated focusing on the
                      understanding of the microstructural mechanisms of crack
                      propagation. The thermomechanical investigations concentrate
                      on controlled crack propagation experiments and thermal
                      shock tests. Controlled isothermal crack propagation
                      experiments with macroscopic and microscopic observation are
                      based on wedge splitting and compact tension test. To
                      determine the resistance against crack propagation as an
                      estimation of the potential thermal shock damage analytical
                      relations have been applied. The thermal shock experiments
                      focused on upward mode thermal shocks via electron beam
                      tests facilities. Due to the very fast (ms) upward mode
                      thermal shock in vacuum in contrast to conventional thermal
                      shocks in air or water effects related to chemical
                      interactions can be excluded.Due to a dependency on the
                      sample size only carbon-free, alumina-based refractories
                      were investigated. The influence due to the addition of
                      zirconia and titania is shown. Thermal shock experiments
                      with electron beam were mainly performed on carboncontaining
                      refractories, since carbon-free refractories tended to
                      electrical charging. For the investigated carbon-containing
                      refractories the thermal shock damage is shown in dependence
                      of different parameters (duration, number).},
