In this paper, the chemical composition, phase composition, and microstructure of the post-use dry materials for the working liners melting different kinds of steel were evaluated. Furthermore, the corrosion mechanism of the steel on the furnace lining materials was comprehensively analyzed. The findings reveal a significant ability of the Mn element in the molten steel to diffuse and penetrate into the refractories. Mn oxidizes to form MnO at the steel-refractory interface, and then forms a liquid phase with Al_(2)O_(3). The Cr element is dissolved into corundum and spinel of the refractories, resulting in lattice defects and structural damage of the materials. TiO2reacts with Al_(2)O_(3) to form Al_(2)TiO_(5), which plays a crucial role in preventing crack formation and propagation. Part of Ti4+dissolves into magnesia-alumina(MA), densifying the materials. TiO2also slows down the reaction between the Cr element and refractory components, further improving the corrosion resistance of the materials.展开更多

Free-flow measurements have shown that the flow is severely affected by increasing the length of steel fibres. The calculated values of rheological constants indicate that 19 mm and 25 mm fibre up to 2 volume percentage is permitted while one volume percentage of 50 mm fibres severely degrades the rheology of the castable.展开更多

Effects of silica micropowder ad- ditions （0, 0. 2% , 0. 5% , 1.0% , 1.5% , 2. 0% , and 2.5%, by mass, the same hewinafier） on properties oJ the gunning mix were researched. The results show that when ttze silica micropowder addition is i. 0% -2. 0% , the gunning mix has good .flou,ability and pumpability. Adding 2.5% silica micropowder, the nepheline forms at 1 600 ℃, which will reduce the high. temperature proper- ties of ntagnesia -ahtmina wet gunning mix. The intro- duction qf silica micropowder has obvious effects on cold mechanical properties of the gunning mix. For the speci- tnens dried at 110 ℃ , the strength increases slightly with the silica micropowder addition increasing. For the specimens heat-treated at 1 600 ℃ for 3 h, the strength in- creases nutrkedlv with the silica micropowder addition in- creasing. When keeping the water addition and particle size di, stribution constant, the residual linear expansion rate qf the specimen with 1.5% of silica micropowder is the lowest, ltot modulus tf rupture at 1 450 ℃ .for 0. 5 h oJ the specimens decreases gradually with the increase of silica fame addition. A small amount of silica micropow- der is beneficial for the slag penetration resistance.展开更多
