The results show that:(1) as SiO2 micropowder addition increases,the shrinkage rate of fired specimens increases; BD increases firstly,reaches the highest at 4 mass%,and then decreases; CMOR and CCS of all specimens increase gradually; so the appropriate SiO2 micropowder addition is 4 mass%;(2) the specimens with bauxite aggregate have better CCS and volume stability,but specimens with andalusite aggregate have better thermal shock resistance;( 3) for castables for hot blast stoves using silica sol as binder,the addition of pure calcium aluminate cement can decrease the linear change rate after treatment at 1 400℃ and can slightly enhance CCS and CMOR,but has very little influence on AP and BD; and the introduction of citric acid worsens the thermal shock resistance of specimens.展开更多
