Development of modern technologies requires the production of materials with perfect and sometimes universal properties. Mullite and mullite-corundum ceramics are the examples of such materials, which were known already in medieval Europe and whose improvement also continues nowadays. Mullite ceramics display favorable refractoriness at temperatures above 1580oC together with excellent resistance to chemical corrosion and very low gas permeability [1, 2]. Mullite ceramics have been widely used for crucibles, thermocouple tubes, moreover refractory ceramics with high porosity serve as a heat insulator in the thermal protection systems.
