The formation of the smelting furnace slag layer

Infiltration of molten state in refractories copper matte with good mobility. Due to the surface in the reaction tower refractory lining is covered with a layer of dense with magnetic iron oxide for hanging slag layer is mainly composed of, so he struck the wall surface matte does not directly penetrate into the brick body, but first of all along the silicate slag channel infiltration within the material and the interaction and slag, slag at different depth generate Cu or Cu2O material.

Reaction tower wall surface slag although direct intrusion effectively prevents the copper matte, but did not completely eliminate the erosion caused by the matte of lining. Through the slag layer, there are still a small number of matte can penetrate through, and then along the brick body pores or cracks penetrate within the capillary channel brick. Because of the more close to the firebrick center, oxygen potential is higher, so into the brick body after the copper matte is prone to oxidation reaction. After reaction, the generated Cu2O exists between the lining the main crystal and the matrix, and no penetration into the other grains.

Molten copper oxide (CuO-Cu2O at 1140 DEG C when the low total soluble) will cause the increase of permeability refractory brick thermal conductivity, the resulting expansion of strong diathermy, lining spalling and, in which Cu is oxidized to CuO, the volume expansion of 75%; oxidized into Cu2O, volume increased by 64%. Therefore, from the microscopic structure, corrosion of matte on the reaction tower lining is mainly for the chemical structure of permeability, copper matte and the resulting stress reaction.

Checking work of castable material before construction

Construction of casting material before should strictly check the following:

1, castable material construction is made of steel or hard wood templates are available. The template must be of adequate strength, good rigidity, not out of shape, do not shift, no leakage of slurry. Steel template to mold release agent. Wood template to brush waterproofpaint. The repeated use of the template to cleaning, painting can be used.

2 water, pouring material should be strictly according to the manual control, shall not exceed the limit. Under the premise of ensuring the construction performance, the amount of water should be less than.

3,  castable refractory mixing time should not less than 5 minutes. The operation to the use of forced mixer. Mixing should first dry mix, then add 80% dosage of water mixing, and then depending on the extent of wet and dry, gently stir until the remaining water, obtaining suitable work consistency so far. Stirring casting materialdifferent should first mixer clean.

4, pouring material must use the whole barrel bag full of. Stirring casting material generally good must be used within 30 minutes. Drying at high temperature working environment should be appropriate to shorten this time. Already first castable coagulation even caking not poured into the mould, nor of mixing water reuse.

5, if the project inspection unqualified should deal with qualified rear can construction. Expired materials shall not be used. Construction of castable to ensure that no power outages not interrupted construction.

Henan Province Quality and Technical Supervision said it had instructed the relevant provincial cities, straight county (city) quality and technical supervision departments in accordance with relevant laws and regulations of this inspection in substandard products and production companies and the law.

Refractory castable using validity period and size selection

一、Using effective period

Need watering tie with monolithic refractories, such as high temperature cement, refractory plastic, refractory castable, etc., must be checked before use its expiry date. Exceeds the material period, its performance will decline.

Unpacking refractory castable pocket, be sure to carefully view the manufacture date on the bag. Such as alumina cement shelf life of 3 to 6 months, cement vulnerable to air humidity during storage and transport and curdle, must be strictly checked.

Refractory soft plastic blank group, due to solidification into lumps, you can not using.

二、Granularity refractory castable

Refractory castable granularity shape, strength, size and composition, the quality of the masonry has a very important influence.

Check granularity shape, generally use visual methods. Such as knotted crucible induction furnace lining was prismatic granularity best with sharp corners. Check granularity intensity can be struck with a wooden hammer, watching the situation to determine its smash.

Check the size and composition of the particle size, the use of screening method. Sieving is carried out in the test chamber, which can be measured by the percentage of various particle size of the composition.

First check pattern according to the technical requirements of the stove on, pay attention to the size of the maximum size limits, and secondly to fire clay should be careful not lost too many fine parts, so as not to reduce its masonry performance.

Reason of casting refractory material for high temperature resistance

Casting refractory material, its main characteristic is high early strength, 3-7 days maximum compressive strength can reach more than 30MPa, and the disadvantage is the volume stability of temperature difference, the intensity decrease, the maximum fall by up to 40%, so the requirements for compressive strength must meet the design requirements and national standards.

The temperature reduces the strength of the main factors are: Casting reaches a certain temperature with low calcium and high alumina cement fireproof material in the heating furnace heating process (350 DEG C), dehydration, transformation of the hydrate started hydrate of cement stone structure, compactness and strength decreased, the volume of pouring material change, this time to the strength of castable the lowest point, after stabilizing. With the heating temperature up to 1100 DEG C, cement stone gradually sintering, casting crystalline refractory mullite crystal transformation. With the temperature rising, mullite crystal growing, a glass matrix liquid phase pouring material, forming a high temperature sintering shape, strength increase. At about 1300 DEG C, casting refractory material strength can reach more than 60MPa, a remarkable characteristic of refractory materials under high temperature condition for this is pouring.

Several suggestions of refractories in China exported to Japan

As people’s awareness of environmental protection and the implementation, some new environmental regulations in the future, not only the requirements of zero discharge of waste refractory material itself, but also the requirements of the refractory material used in the process, give full play to the refractory effect at the same time, produces no environmental pollution and harm to human health of hazardous substances. For example, some Japanese well-known large companies (including Mitsui shipbuilding and Nippon Steel etc.) are actively involved in the development of the manufacturing technology of waste incineration furnace. In order to reduce the dioxin content in garbage incineration furnace gas by discharge of, is now generally by increasing furnace burning temperature method to solve the. Because the furnace burning temperature increase, erosion rate of refractory materials to accelerate, make the refractory shorten service life. The best way to increase the burning furnace refractory life, aluminum chrome refractories is the use of high chromium content. But the use of aluminum chrome refractories will remain six chromium harmful in the slag and waste refractory material, resulting in the pollution of the environment. Therefore, at present Japan are developing new refractories for furnace burning.

Add a few suggestions of refractories in China export to Japan, because Japan’s sustained economic recession since 1995 and the appreciation of the yen, the Japanese iron and steel enterprises to reduce production costs, improve the competitiveness of steel products in the international market, the major steel companies have increased the volume of imports of refractories, refractories so Japanese imports surge. 1997 has reached 167204t, which imports from China accounted for the total amount of 72322t, the import of refractory 43.3% in Japan

The reasons of refractory brick collapse in the process of use

For refractory brick, we should not feel strange. With the progress of society, the application of refractory brick is more and more widely. Refractory brick appear collapse phenomenon, in the actual use so, what causes it; following the Xinmi Changxing refractory material factory is simple to give you introduced the refractory brick collapse reason

Refractory brick 1, red hot suddenly quenched with water to produce rupture and fall.

The 2 stage, oven heating rate master is not strict, temperature rise too fast, causing severe dehydration, masonry and damage due to expansion and shrinkage.

3 build stove masonry to expand stay insufficient, cracked and falling temperature after expansion.

4, the ash accumulation system, most of the metal salt corrosion of the refractory brick, embitterment of vanadium and nickel will penetrate into the refractory brick falling off caused by.

5 when the liquefied gas, heating, air flow ratio is undeserved, cause furnace blasting and vibration split off.

6, poor air flow furnace, flame directly flush furnace brick, the furnace brick thinning after a serious fall.

7, the operation too, lifting furnace temperature pressure to balance, it is strictly prohibited to excessive temperature and pressure, avoid the sharp rise in the drop, because the temperature of each layer of brick always lags behind the furnace temperature, the more rely on the outer temperature changes more slowly, if drastic changes in a short time the temperature of the furnace, brick layer between refractory brick and brick joints rupture is caused due to temperature difference is too large to generate huge internal stress. Furnace pressure will cause the sudden change, refractory brick for each layer of gas pressure can’t balance, pressure increasing and destroyed, may cause the whole refractory lining of furnace temperature fluctuation pressure serious collapse.
