High-alumina Refractory vs. Alkali-lime-silica Glass

High-alumina refractory belongs to the oxide-based engineering ceramics classification, while alkali-lime-silica glass belongs to the glass and glass-ceramics. There are 3 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (14, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is high-alumina refractory and the bottom bar is alkali-lime-silica glass.
