Study on Properties of Magnesia-Hercynite Brick

Using magnesia and hercynite as materials, we researched the magnesia hercynite brick in order to solve the problem of chrome free brick used in the burning zone of cement rotary kiln. Effect of different firing temperature and different content of hercynite on properties of the brick were studied. The results show that the magnesia hercynite specimen fired at 1600℃ was densified and when the hercynite content is 7%, the cold crushing strength and the adhesive strength of rupture of the specimen have the highest value.

Development of Reproducing Alumina-Magnesia-Carbon Bricks

The reproducing alumina-magnesia-carbon bricks were prepared with the dumped bricks as starting materials. The bulk density, apparent porosity, crushing strength, modolus of rupture and slag resistance of the specimen were analyzed. The results show that the used refractories can be reused and recycled by the right method. The reproducing alumina-magnesia-carbon bricks with better abilities were prepared.

Anti-hydration Magnesia-spinel Bricks in Cement Industry

Hydration cracks of magnesia-spinel bricks in cement industry have been serious problems for both refractory producers and refractory users for a long time.When magnesia-spinel bricks are kept for more than 6months,the bricks tend to have reaction with water or moisture and result in cracks and loss on their structural strength. Those bricks cannot be used anymore and cause substantial loss for the related parties. In 2013,the Siam Refractory Industry Co.,Ltd.,Thailand,successfully developed and applied a special nano-technology to create ＂Anti-Hydration Magnesia-Spinel Bricks ＂ for cement industry which can have the storage time more than two years even in high humidity areas. The cement producers can ensure that all bricks still have good properties as the new ones.

Research of Lignin Modified Phenol Formaldehyde Resin Bonded Magnesia Carbon Bricks

In order to reduce the cost and to improve the low temperature bonding strength of phenol formaldehyde resin（ PF）,the lignin modified phenol formaldehyde resin（ LPF） was synthesized using calcium lignosulfonate as a partial replacement of phenol,and sodium hydroxide as catalyzer. Then the magnesia carbon bricks were prepared using the LPF as binder. Different process conditions of LPFs such as calcium lignosulfonate additions（ 10%,20%,30%,40% and 50%,in mass,the same hereinafter）,catalyzer additions（ extra added,1%,2%,3%,4% and 5%） and reaction times（ 1,1. 5,2,2. 5 and 3 h） were investigated. Effects of prepared LPFs on properties of magnesia carbon bricks（ baked at 200 ℃ for 24 h） were researched in order to modify the synthesizing conditions of LPFs. Cold physical properties and hot modulus of rupture of magnesia carbon bricks bonded by LPF and by traditional PF after baked at 200 ℃ for 24 h and fired at 1 200 ℃ for 3 h were compared,respectively. The results show that the optimal synthesizing conditions of LPF for preparing magnesia carbon bricks are 30% calcium lignosulfonate,1% catalyzer,and 2 h reaction time. The magnesia carbon bricks bonded by the optimal LPF achieve：（ 1） the bulk densities 2. 84 g · cm- 3and 2. 82g·cm- 3,apparent porosities 9. 6% and 14. 6%,moduli of rupture 17. 8 MPa and 6. 4 MPa,crushing strengths72. 3 MPa and 48. 7 MPa,after baked at 200 ℃ and1 200 ℃,respectively;（ 2） the hot modulus of rupture7. 3 MPa after fired at 1 400 ℃. The above properties are better than those of the magnesia carbon brick bonded by PF.

Corrosion Resistance Mechanism of Magnesia Zirconia Brick to RH Furnace Slag

Magnesia zirconia brick containing 11 wt% zirconia was prepared with magnesia and monoclinic zirconia as starting materials in order to replace the chrome-containing materials for Rtt furnace. The corrosion resistance of magnesia zirconia brick and fused rebonded magnesia chrome brick （short for magnesia chrome brick） to high, and low basicity slag of RH fitrnace was comparatively researched by rotary slag method and their slag resistance mechanisms were analyzed. The results show that： （1） because the reaction layer containing CaZrO3 forms in magnesia zirconia brick, it has better corrosion resistance to high basicity slag than magnesia chrome brick, however, it has worse corrosion resistance to low basicity slag than magnesia chrome brick; （2） ZrO2 in the magnesia zirconia brick can absorb CaO in the slag, which decrea- ses the basicity of slag and inereases the viscosity of slag, so the degree of slag penetration in magnesia zircon.ia brick decreases ; （ 3 ） there is little zirconia in the slag layer of residual nutgnesia zirconia brick;from working face to original brick layer, the residual magnesia zirconia brick shows three layers： obviotasly deteriorative layer, slightly deteriorative layer, and original brick layer, but the residual magnesia chrome brick only shows two layers ： obviously deteriorative layer and original brick layer; the SiO2 content of residual magnesia zirconia brick is the highest in the slightly deteriorative layer, however, the SiO2 content of residual magnesia chrome brick gradually decreases front working face to original brick layer.

Synthesis of Magnesium Aluminate Spinel-corundum Composite with Waste Slide Plate and Magnesia Carbon Brick

Magnesium aluminate spinel -corundum composite was prepared with waste slide plate and magnesia carbon brick. Microstructure and sintering ability of as-prepared magnesium aluminate spinel -corundum composite were investigated with XRD, SEM, and DSC/TG. With the addition of waste slide plate increasing or synthesis tem- perature rising, the bulk density of the specimen increases and the apparent porosity decreases, but the crystallinity of the specimen decreases and the magnesium alaminate spinel phase increases. The obtained composite contains 72% spinel and 26% corundum. Primary phase and secondary phase are bonded by glass phase. The results show that it is feasible to synthesis magnesium aluminate spinel - corundum material with waste slide plate and magnesia carbon brick.

Development of a Thermoplastic Magnesia Carbon Brick ——“A Cold Process Flexible System”

Conventional resin bonded MgO-C bricks, which are manufactured via cold mixing process, harden and attain brittleness during carbonization of resin due to the formation of isotropic glassy carbon. They do not exhibit thermo-plasticity, which can facilitate the release of huge amount of stresses generated during preheating or in operation. On the contrary, pitch bonded MgO-C bricks, show better pyro-plasticity due to formation of an anisotropic and graphitized coke structure during carbonization of pitch. Hence, pitch bonded bricks show a superior structural spalling resistance in comparison to resin-bonded bricks. One of the drawbacks of pitch-bonded bricks is that the manufacturing requires a hot mixing process and hot pressing facility. This paper describes how a combination of above two processes was optimized to make a MgO-C brick via cold process. These bricks exhibit a low Modulus of Elasticity and thereby facilitate release of stresses during operation. Normal coal tar pitch is considered as an environmental hazard due to the presence of polyaromatic hydrocarbons like benzopyrene B [ a ] P. So, a special binder with a low B[ a ] P was selected, which is eco-friendly in nature. Such bricks were made in our plant in China and supplied to an integrated steel plant in Europe for their ladle. The bricks supplied have given encouraging life.

Aluminum and Activated Alumina Powder Additions on Microwave Synthesis of Al_(4)SiC_(4)

Aiming at improving the properties of magnesia carbon materials,silicon aluminum carbide(Al_(4)SiC_(4))containing materials were prepared using industrial aluminum powder,silicon carbide powder,and graphite as raw materials,and activated alumina powder as an additive,mixing thoroughly,pressing into cylinders and then firing at 1200℃for 30 min in a carbon embedded atmosphere by the microwave method.The effects of the aluminum powder addition(20%and 24%,by mass)and activated alumina powder addition(0,3%,5%and 7%,by mass)on the microwave synthesis of Al_(4)SiC_(4) as well as the effect of the obtained Al_(4)SiC_(4) containing material on the properties of magnesia carbon bricks were studied.The results show that:compared with the samples with 20%aluminum powder,those with 24%aluminum powder generate more Al_(4)SiC_(4).With the activated alumina powder addition increasing from 0 to 7%,the amount of Al_(4)SiC_(4) generated increases first and then decreases.Compared with the sample without activated alumina powder,the samples with activated alumina powder show lower bulk density and higher apparent porosity.With the activated alumina powder addition increasing from 3%to 7%,the bulk density of the samples increases first and then decreases,while the apparent porosity of the samples shows an opposite trend.The optimal additions are 24%aluminum powder and 5%activated alumina powder,and Al_(4)SiC_(4) synthesized in this sample has a hexagonal plate structure.With the synthesized Al_(4)SiC_(4) containing material added,the magnesia carbon brick has slightly increased cold modulus of rupture,basically the same modulus of elasticity and improved oxidation resistance.
