As the other silicate minerals such as kaolinite and pyrophyllite kyanite ($Al_2O_3$.$SiO_2$) is transformed to mullite and free silica or glassy phase at high temperature. Therefore $Al_2O_3$ is commonly added to kyanite in order to increase the mullite-yield. In case of $Al_2O_3$-addition mullite-yield depends on the reactivity of added $Al_2O_3$ with free silica which occurs from transformation of kyanite or exists as accessory minerals. It is well known that addition of activated $Al_2O_3$Al powder is added to kyanite to utilize the aluminothermal reac-tion of Al powder in reaction of mullite-formation.
