Abstract

A process for treating a fused refractory product including more than 10% by mass of ZrO2, or “base product.” The process includes heating at least a portion of the surface of the product, so as to melt ZrO2 crystals in a superficial region extending to a depth of less than 2000 μm. The process includes cooling the molten superficial region obtained in the preceding step so as to obtain a protective layer.
