Refractory materials must be chemically and
physically stable at high temperatures. Depending on the operating environment,
they need to be resistant to thermal shock, be chemically inert, and have
specific ranges of thermal
conductivity and of the coefficient of thermal expansion.
The oxides
of aluminium (alumina), silicon (silica) and magnesium (magnesia) are the most
important materials used in the manufacturing of refractories. Another oxide
usually found in refractories is the oxide of calcium (lime). Fire clays are also widely
used in the manufacture of refractories.
Refractories must be chosen according to the
conditions they will face. Some applications require special refractory materials. Zirconia
is used when the material must withstand extremely high temperatures. Silicon carbide and carbon (graphite) are two other
refractory materials used in some very severe temperature conditions, but they
cannot be used in contact with oxygen,
as they will oxidize
and burn.
Binary compounds such as tungsten carbide or boron nitride can be very
refractory. Hafnium
carbide is the most refractory binary compound known, with a melting point of 3890 °C. The ternary compound tantalum
hafnium carbide has one of the highest melting points of all known
compounds (4215 °C).
Refractories can be classified on the basis of
chemical composition.
Acidic refractories
They consist of mostly acidic materials like alumina
(Al2O3) and silica (SiO2). They are not
attacked or affected by acidic materials, but easily affected by basic
materials. They include substances such as silica, alumina, and fire clay refractories.
Neutral refractories
These are used in areas where slags and atmosphere
are either acidic or basic and are chemically stable to both acids and bases.
The main raw materials belongs to, but not confined to, R2O3
group. The common examples of these materials are alumina (Al2O3),
chromia (Cr2O3) and carbon.
Basic refractories
These are used on areas where slags and atmosphere
are basic; they are stable to alkaline materials but could react with acids.
The main raw materials belong to the RO group to which magnesia (MgO) is a very
common example. Other examples include dolomite and chrome-magnesia.

How to choices the fire brick refractory
Deciding what type of fire brick refractory you will use is one of the first choices you will have to make when starting to build a furnace. You will use fire brick in the cooking floor, the oven dome and perhaps for your decorative vent arch, oven landing and other decorative trim.
This page explains the different types of fire brick refractory and what the trade-offs are between them. It should help you decide what types of fire brick you are going to use, and it can help you find the right fire brick refractory at your local masonry supply store. It might be useful to take this page with you when you go shopping.
Here are some basic fire brick refractory types:
Medium duty fire brick. This is the fire brick refractory that we recommend for both the cooking floor and dome of the Pompeii oven. medium duty fire bricks are comprised of roughly 35% alumina and 50% silica, heat up quickly, easily withstand the 900F heat your oven will reach, and are designed for the rapid heat-up and cool down (thermal cycling) that your oven will experience. fire brick will also reach the heat required for pizza more quickly than clay refractory brick, as they are more efficient at conducting heat.
Further, because fire brick is designed to withstand thermal cycling, your oven will last longer, though for most home ovens this is not an important issue, and your oven will probably outlast you whichever brick you choose.
When choosing your fire brick, look for a refractory brick with straight edges for your cooking floor. It is important that the bricks in the floor fit against each other, and a curved edge will result in a gap between the fire bricks and in your cooking floor.
A typical fire brick measures 9″x4.5″x2.5″, weighs about 8 pounds and is yellow.
Red fire brick. This is the traditional red fire brick that you find at Home Depot and at masonry supply stores. Fire bricks are made from clay, and fired in a kiln. They are typically made from local clay, as shipping is too expensive, and fired to between 2000F – 3000F (high enough to fuse the minerals). You can use clay brick in the oven dome, but we would not recommend using them in the oven floor. There are trade-offs to consider.
There are two shortcoming to using a fire brick in your oven dome. First, thermal cycling will cause fire brick to spall, where little pieces of the fire brick flake off, and could cause individual fire bricks to crack. It has happened to us. Second, fire brick is not as good a conductor as fire brick and as a result will take longer to heat up.
Our view is that unless cost is a prohibiting factor, we would recommend fire brick. For example, a 42″ oven some has roughly 180 bricks in the dome, so the difference in brick cost should be around $100. In the context of the overall cost of the oven, and large amount of human capital you will be investing in your oven, we think the extra cost of worth it.
If your choice is to build your oven with fire brick or not at all, we would strongly recommend building your oven with fire brick.
Red fire bricks are typically used for building the decorative arch and optional sides around the oven vent and vent landing, and can be used for any decorative feature.
There are three types of fire brick that you should avoid.
Concrete fire brick. They are made from standard Portland cement-based concrete and are air dried, not kiln fired. They will not withstand the heat inside your oven.
High duty fire brick. These brick have very high alumina content, get very hot (1500F and up) and are designed for continual high-heat applications, such as furnaces. They are expensive, and will get too hot for some of your oven uses, such as baking bread and roasting. In general, pizza wants heat between 750F and 900F, while bread and roasts cooks best between 500F and 600F. (Note that brick ovens are able to cook at higher temperatures without burning because of the moist heat inside the oven and shorter cooking times.)
Insulating fire brick. These light-weight refractory bricks are designed to stop heat, and as such have low conduction and low heating holding capacity. They are often used to insulate industrial equipment. A typical insulating fire brick weighs about 2 lbs, compared with an 8 lb standard duty fire brick

Brief Introduction of Fire Brick Refractory Feature
A firebrick, firebrick,
or refractory brick is a block of refractory ceramic material used in lining furnaces, kilns, fireboxes, and fireplaces. A refractory fire brick is built primarily to withstand high temperature, but will also usually
have a low thermal conductivity for greater energy efficiency, Now, we will brief analysis its famous
features:
Heat Retention Qualities of Fire Brick
Fire brick is a
common building material used in the construction of fireplace and furnace
linings. This type of brick is used because it has insulating properties, as
well as the ability to store heat. Since the material properties of the brick
are so different from mortar and regular brick, firebrick is usually installed to be independent of the
regular masonry construction.
Thermal Conductivity of Fire Brick
Fire brick is typically used as an insulating material.
Even so, ordinary dense fire brick has a fairly high
thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity of dense fire brick used to line
fireplaces is 1.40 Watts per meter Kelvin (W/(m*K)). There are low density fire bricks used to line
areas not subject to impact, such as furnaces. These fire bricks, composed of a
silica ceramic, have a thermal conductivity as low as 0.24 W/(m*K).
Density of Fire Brick
There are two main types of fire brick. The dense
type is typically used to line fireplaces and fireboxes of stoves that get a
lot of abrasion from materials being burned. The light type of fire brick is mostly
used as an insulator in places where it is not subject to mechanical abuse.
Dense fire brick has a density relative
to water of 2.4, while light fire brick has a relative density
of only 0.60. Since density is how much a material weighs compared to other
materials of the same size, we use water as the basis of comparison for all
materials.
The specific heat of a material is the amount of energy it
takes to heat one kilogram of the material one degree centigrade, measured in
Kelvin. The energy is measured in Joules. The amount of energy that is stored
in fire brick is then a function of the density of the brick
multiplied by the specific heat of the brick material.
A dense fire brick has an energy density
of 2.52 kilojoules per cubic meter per degree Kelvin [kJ/(m3*K]. A light fire brick has an
energy density of only 0.36 kJ/(m3*K). By comparison, an ordinary red fire brick has an
energy density of 1.4 kJ/(m3*K).
In summary, a dense fire brick stores about
eight times as much heat energy as a light fire brick, and can
transmit the heat to a cooler surface about five times faster.

China is the is the biggest country of refractory producing and consuming, and total production quantity in
2011 was 29,5 million ton, which made up 62% of total output in the
word. Henan province is the base of refractory materials, and the
production quantity is 13,86 million ton, which made up 47% of total
output in China and whose importance should not be ignored.
Energy conservation and emission reduction has become more and more important, it will take a
series of technology and policy measures to promote long life and
adjustment of structure in high temperature industry such as iron and
steel, nonferrous metal, and petrochemical industry. How to make high
quality refractory material and carry out key important technology
project with proprietary intellectual property rights is a main measure
in promoting the improvement of refractory industry.
At this time, there are several advanced enterprises
who are major in manufacturing technology and possessing all kinds of
advanced refractory materials and casting materials, which makes a
industry with great variety of goods and distinctive characteristics. By
combine with producing, learning and producing, which mostly already
establish an advanced refractory industry, and researching ability is
abundant. In the areas of blast furnace, cowper stove, aluminium cell,
cement kiln, glass kiln and coal chemical industry, Henan refractory
enterprises all have abilities of forming complete set, technological
innovation and product researching. Henan province has hold the basis
element of future innovation in refractory industry.
In the future, the farther living and development of refractory industry in Henan should be base on cooperation, to
establish a series of key techniques with proprietary intellectual
property rights and solve the bottleneck of industry development in
order to promote industrial competitiveness. Base on the improvement of
researching, innovation, equipments and scale rather than relying on
expanding of quantity.Thursday, May 23, 2013
Firebrick,Fire Brick,Firebricks,Firebrick Refractory,Refractory Brick
A fire brick, firebrick, or refractorybrick is a block of refractory ceramic material used in lining furnaces, kilns,
fireboxes, and fireplaces. A refractory brick is built primarily to withstand
high temperature, but will also usually have a low thermal conductivity for
greater energy efficiency. Usually dense firebricks are used in applications
with extreme mechanical, chemical, or thermal stresses, such as the inside of a
wood-fired kiln or a furnace, which is subject to abrasion from wood, fluxing
from ash or slag, and high temperatures. In other, less harsh situations, such
as in an electric or natural gas fired kiln, more porous bricks, commonly known
as "kiln bricks" are a better choice.They are weaker, but they are
much lighter, easier to form, and insulate far better than dense bricks. In any
case, firebricks should not spall under rapid temperature change, and their
strength should hold up well during rapid temperature changes.

Types, Technical Properties and Application of Refractory Castable
Types of refractory castable
Refractory castable mainly distinguished according to apparent porosity, anchoring agent, and types of aggregate. Besides that, refractory castable also classified according to applied temperate and functional characteristics when used. According to apparent porosity, it can be divided into compact refractory castable and adiabatic refractory castable whose apparent porosity is not less than 45%; according to anchoring agent, it can be divided to hydraulicity refractory castable, chemical constitution refractor castable and union refractor castable. The hydralicity refractory castable can harden in normal atmospheric temperature or by hydration, which mainly include portland cement, ordinary Calcium aluminate cement, pure Calcium aluminate cement and elect rometrical pure Calcium aluminate cement. The chemical constitution usually harden by adding curing agent to lead to chemical reaction in the normal atmospheric temperature, which mainly includes sodium silicate refractory castable, aluminum sulfate refractory castable and phosphate refractory castable. The union refractor castable turns to hard by sintering in the process of calcination, which mainly include Clay castable. According to refractory aggregate, there are clay aggregate (Al2O3 30%~45%),high aluminum aggregate (Al2O3%26ge;45%), silicon aggregate (SiO2%26ge;85%、Al2O3%26lt;10%), alkalin-ous aggregate (magnesite clinker and dolomite ) , special aggregate (carbon, carbide, spinel, zircon and nitride ) and adiabatic aggregate (pearlstone, vermiculite, ceramicite, floater, light brick sand, Porous clinker, and alumina hollow sphere). In the process of construction, it is available to use some mixture aggregate according to construction necessaries. Technical performances and applications of refractory castable
Refractory castable as the main sort of unshaped refractory material, which can be used without fritting, besides that, among all he unshaped materials it with simple produce craft ship, needs no equipments, with high level of mechanization, easy to construct and with high coefficient of utilization. What’s more, refractory castable often have high intensity and can be made into fabricated material that used by furnace, for example, continuous casting weir plate preform which is pans available refractory castable.
Refractory castable mainly used in casting industrial stoves, and also widely applied in fossil oil, chemical industry, electric power, mechanical industrial stoves, and thermal equipment.

Methods of Eliminating the Phenomenon of Ladle Nozzle Clogging
A ladle nozzle is one of the slide gate ceramic elements. Systematic extension of the length of the steelmaking ladle campaign increases the demands on a ladle nozzle. The ideal solution would be a ladle nozzle which withstands the entire ladle campaign. In addition to thermal stability, ladle nozzles must be characterized by high resistance to corrosion and erosion caused by the flow of steel. An important factor affecting the durability of a ladle nozzle is clogging due to steel deoxidation products deposition in the nozzle channel. The phenomenon of clogging makes it difficult to regulate the rate of steel outflow from the ladle and, in extreme cases, can make the nozzle channel close. Clearing the nozzle by oxygen lancing accelerates its destruction.
Methods to prevent clogging:
1. Ladle Refining Practice. A vacuum degassing treatment yields better cleanliness than does argon bubbling.
2. Reoxidation Prevention. Submerged ladle-to-tundish pouring, shielded tundish surface, ann leak-tight refractory joints will reduce exposure of the steel to oxygen and thereby improve cleanliness.
3. Oxygen absorber Prevention.Optimal tundish flow patterns as well as filtration and electromagnetism techniques can remove Oxygen absorber products from the melt.
4. Flux Enrainment Prevention. Submerged ladle-to-tundish pouring and avoidance of ladle slag carryover will reduce the amount of exogenous inclusions in the melt.

The requirements of refractory sliding nozzle
Sliding nozzle mainly stalled in the bottom of ladle, whose applied condition has got a big improvement comparing with plug, as its refractory part does not soak in molten steel for a long time. To sliding nozzle, slide gate is the key section, as its quality influences life span of nozzle directly.
The lower/upper nozzle only as a role of alleyway for steel running, but the upper nozzle is required to resist high temperature and eroding, which has the same life span of ladle well block. The lower nozzle is only used for one time, so which holds less demand than upper nozzle.
Both of upper/lower sliding plate are
beard fastening pressure, and also required to slid and no molten steel
overslow between them when pouring. So it is required to take finish
machining to slip plan of upper and lower sliding plate, to make sure
high parallelism and smoothness, besides, both of them are required
rather high mechanical property.
Now the material of sliding plate
mainly include: High alumina, Magnesia, Aluminum silicon carbide,
Aluminum chromium, Aluminum carbon, and Aluminum zirconium carbon.
Above materials can be made into burned and unburned skateboarding brick.
As high quality sliding plate is expensive, one can choose compound sliding plate, which is more appliable and economical.
