Additives for refractory materials are substances used to improve the workability (constructability), physical properties, microstructure, and performance of unshaped refractory materials. The dosage of additives varies depending on their specific properties and functions, typically ranging from a few ten-thousandths to a few percent of the total weight of the unshaped refractory mixture. They are generally …

The heating furnace is a critical thermal processing equipment in steel rolling facilities. In recent years, refractory plastic has been predominantly used for the furnace roof lining in domestic heating furnaces. The specific construction process is as follows: Anchorage installation → Billet compaction → Formwork removal → Plastic lining finishing → Perforation drilling → Contraction …

Due to unstable factors in converter operation, premature damage may occur in certain areas of the furnace lining. At this point, repairs to the converter lining are required and must be maintained until the lining reaches the end of its service life. Repairing the lining helps balance wear distribution, reduce production costs, and extend its …

The application method for induction furnace repair materials depends on the type, extent, and location of the furnace lining damage, and is mainly divided into two categories: localized cold repair and hot repair. The following are common application steps compiled from publicly available information: Localized cold repair (suitable for small-area damage) When the furnace lining has …

By modifying the construction process of castable refractories, their performance can be significantly enhanced. Controlling the water-to-binder ratio effectively increases the bulk density of the castable, reduces porosity, and improves its resistance to erosion. Aluminum-magnesium ladle refractories exhibit excellent properties, yet during operation, they endure significant slag erosion and molten steel erosion. Both forms of …

MgO-C bricks are primarily used in the headspace and slag line areas when refining ladle furnaces and ladles. Depending on operating conditions, refractories in these zones must withstand high temperatures, thermal shock, and mechanical erosion caused by slag attack. Previously, magnesium-chromium refractories were selected for these areas, but their use has declined due to chromium’s …

Magnesium carbon bricks are refractory materials composed of high-melting-point basic magnesium oxide (melting point 2800°C) and high-melting-point carbon materials resistant to slag penetration. Various non-oxide additives are incorporated and bonded using carbon-based binders. These bricks are primarily used in the linings of converters, AC electric arc furnaces, DC electric arc furnaces, and slag lines of …

The new technologies and processes required for producing high-value-added specialty steels also impose higher demands on the service life of ladle refractories. At Benxi Steel’s Plate Rolling Mill, the output of pipeline steel, rectangular billets, and other deeply desulfurized steels refined via the LF route have increased annually. Furthermore, following the completion of ladle dual-vent …
