The difference between silicon brick and semi-silicon brick

Silica brick is refractory product with SiO2 content above 92%. The higher the content of SiO2 in silica raw materials, the higher the refractoriness of products, the ability of acid erosion resistance is very strong. Semi-silica brick is made of pyrophyllite as the main raw material, and its refractoriness is more than 1700℃. Good thermal shock resistance, can withstand the impact of steel slag and metal, and has a strong creep resistance. Silica brick belongs to a variety of acid refractory materials, has a strong resistance to acid slag or acid melt erosion ability, alkali erosion resistance is very poor, and the expansion coefficient of silica brick is very large. The volume of silica brick is stable between 300℃ and melting point. When heated to 1450℃, volume expansion of 1.5% ~ 2.2% will occur. The biggest disadvantage of silicon brick is poor thermal shock resistance and low refractoriness (generally 1690 ~ 1730℃), so its application scope is limited. A semi-silica brick made of waxy stone. There will be micro expansibility. Because of the mineral composition of wax stone, the lattice size of pyrophyllite in its crystal structure changes little when heated, so it shrinks when roasted, and sometimes expands slightly....

Selection of refractory materials for cement rotary kiln lining

At the back of the cement rotary kiln, the length of the kiln mouth is about 1 meter, wear-resistant castable can be selected, but it must have a certain degree of alkaline resistance. The castable area from 10D to the rear kiln entrance can use anti-spalling high-alumina bricks; The 7D-10D section of the rotary kiln can use silmo brick or Silmo red brick; Section 5D-7D is a transitional zone, which can use magnesia-aluminum spinel brick; The 6D-7D section can also use Silmo brick or Silmo red brick;

Why does the refractory castable used for the furnace nozzle of a tilting furnace fall off?

A tilting furnace is a movable furnace body with a refractory lining that can operate continuously. The furnace cover and furnace nozzle of this type of furnace are generally made of refractory castable, while other parts are lined with refractory bricks.   The refractory castable lining on the furnace cover is 80 mm thick, with V-shaped anchors. After pouring, the castable needs to be baked before it can be put into operation. However, many manufacturers apply the refractory castable directly onto the furnace nozzle without baking and put it into use immediately. This method is widely adopted because it simplifies on-site construction. To be used properly, the refractory castable for the furnace nozzle must meet certain technical requirements. Specifically, its maximum particle size should not exceed 6 mm. The castable for the furnace cover, by contrast, has a maximum particle size of 8 mm. If the furnace-cover castable is applied directly to the nozzle without baking, it is very likely to fall off. So how can this problem be prevented?   First, the furnace nozzle must be cleaned thoroughly before applying the castable. If the surface is not properly cleaned, the castable will likely fall off within a few days...
