The use and characteristics of mullite insulation bricks

Insulating refractory material refers to a lightweight refractory material with high porosity,low bulk density,and thermal insulation properties.The disadvantage of this material is that its porosity ranges from 30%to 50%(0.3g/cm3 to 1.3g/cm3),which leads to tissue loosening,low mechanical strength,and poor wear resistance.Generally,it does not bear loads and is protected by dense refractory materials.It is often used for kiln wall insulation or drying room external wall insulation.In recent years,the working faces of prefabricated tunnel kilns have also adopted lightweight high alumina or lightweight mullite;In this case,it is necessary to greatly improve the strength and resistance to airflow erosion of insulation refractory materials due to their direct contact with flames and bearing certain loads.Practice has proved that the kiln lining is made of refractory oxide hollow ball products with a hole diameter of less than 0.6mm and produced by foam.Because these materials have high compressive and flexural strength,their service life can be greatly improved.For example,the compressive strength(~10MPa)and service temperature(16000℃)of alumina hollow ball products are far higher than other lightweight refractory materials.1.Mullite insulation bricks are a new type of energy-saving refractory material with high temperature resistance,high strength,low thermal conductivity,and significant energy-saving effect;It is suitable for ceramic roller kiln,electric porcelain and arts and crafts porcelain shuttle kiln,step-by-step heating furnace,etc.In recent years,prefabricated tunnel kilns have been applied in the wall material industry,with the following technical indicators:a.Chemical composition:Al2O3:≥50%;Fe2O3:≤0.8%b.Volume density:~1.2g/cm3c.Normal temperature compressive strength:≥8MPad.Thermal shock resistance(1100℃air cooling):20 timese.Load softening point(0.1MPa):≤1450℃f.Thermal conductivity:W·(m·K)-1(350℃)≤1%(1550℃,12h)g.Product specification(mm):400×four hundred×one hundred2.The ceramsite lightweight refractory concrete block takes aluminate cement-65 as the combination agent,shale as the combination agent,ceramsite,fly ash ceramsite or high alumina ceramsite as the aggregate,and the lightweight product is formed by vibration or vibration compression method.The technical indicators of ceramsite lightweight refractory concrete blocks are as follows:a.Level:GL premium product;GL First Class Productb.Volume density after drying at 110℃(g/cm3):1.65;one point sevenc.Normal temperature compressive strength(MPa):40;thirty-fived.110℃flexural strength after drying(MPa):3.5;three

New material mullite insulation bricks are coming, do you know about it?

The mullite insulation brick produced by Jinxin refractory material is a high alumina refractory material with mullite as the main crystal phase.The general alumina content ranges from 65%to 75%.In addition to mullite,the mineral composition also contains a small amount of glass phase and cristobalite,with lower alumina content;Those with higher levels of alumina also contain a small amount of corundum.Mullite insulation bricks can be directly used for high-temperature kiln lining.The product characteristics of Mullite insulation bricks are:1.Low thermal conductivity,with excellent thermal insulation effect;2.Mullite insulation bricks have low heat melting,and due to their low thermal conductivity,the Mullite series lightweight insulation bricks accumulate very little heat energy,resulting in significant energy-saving effects in intermittent operations;3.Low impurity content has a very low content of oxides such as iron and alkali metals,therefore,high fire resistance;The high aluminum content maintains good performance in a reducing atmosphere;4.Mullite insulation bricks have high hot compressive strength;5.Accurate exterior dimensions accelerate the construction speed,reduce the use of refractory mud,ensure the strength and stability of the masonry,and thus extend the service life of the lining;6.Mullite insulation bricks can be processed into special shapes.To reduce the number of bricks and joints.Classification of mullite insulation bricks:Mullite insulation bricks are mainly divided into light and heavy mullite bricks based on their density,and are mainly divided into 1350 mullite insulation bricks,1450 mullite insulation bricks,1550 mullite bricks,etc.according to their usage temperature.The performance and application of mullite insulation bricks produced by Jinxin refractory material:high fire resistance,up to 1790℃or above.The starting temperature for load softening is 1600~1700℃.The room temperature compressive strength is 70-260MPa.Good thermal shock resistance.There are two types of sintered mullite bricks and fused mullite bricks.Sintered mullite bricks are made from high alumina bauxite clinker as the main raw material,with a small amount of clay or raw alumina added as a binder,and then formed and fired.Electric fused mullite bricks are made from high alumina,industrial alumina,and refractory clay as raw materials,with the addition of charcoal or fine coke particles as reducing agents.After forming,they are manufactured using the reduction electric melting method.The crystallization of fused mullite is larger than that of sintered mullite,and its thermal shock resistance is better than that of sintered products.Their high-temperature performance mainly depends on the content of alumina and the uniformity of the distribution of mullite phase and glass.Mainly used for hot blast furnace roof,blast furnace body and bottom,glass furnace regenerator,ceramic sintering kiln,dead corner lining of petroleum cracking system,etc.
