a crystallite diameter of the SrAl 2 O 4 is from 40 nm to 80 nm, and
the binder is present in an amount of from 0.5 parts by mass to 12 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of a total amount of the binder for monolithic refractories and the refractory aggregate.
2. A monolithic refractory, comprising a binder for monolithic refractories and a refractory aggregate, the binder comprising a mixture of Al 2 O 3 and SrAl 2 O 4 , the refractory aggregate comprising an ultrafine alumina powder having a particle diameter of 1 μm or less, wherein
a crystallite diameter of the SrAl 2 O 4 is from 40 nm to 80 nm, and
the binder is present in an amount of from 0.5 parts by mass to 12 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of a total amount of the binder for monolithic refractories and the refractory aggregate.
3. The monolithic refractory according to claim 2 ,
wherein the mixture comprises from 10 mass % to 60 mass % of the SrAl 2 O 4 and from 40 mass % to 90 mass % of the Al 2 O 3 .
