Refractory Materials for Converter Steelmaking

The consumption of refractory materials for steelmaking is substantial, and it directly affects the service life of steelmaking furnaces and smelting costs. Therefore, when selecting refractory materials, in addition to meeting the requirements of smelting processes, it is necessary to…

Ladle Refractory Linings in Steelmaking

The ladle used in traditional steelmaking processes, such as the short-route ladle-ingot method, primarily employs refractory materials such as aluminosilicate bricks, semi-silica bricks, and pyrophyllite bricks. When used in long-route methods like secondary refining and continuous casting, the refractory materials…

Working Environment of Steel Ladles

A worker wearing a camouflage jacket and red - and - white gloves is handling a tan refractory brick with a circular hole in the center. Surrounding the worker are several other similar bricks, indicating a construction or manufacturing setting.

Steel ladles are primarily used for containing molten steel. Before tapping, the ladle must be preheated and baked. During tapping, molten steel at approximately 1650°C is poured from the furnace into the ladle. The ladle not only endures intense thermal…

Characteristics and Applications of Silica Brick

Silica brick is a refractory product primarily composed of silica (SiO₂ content ≥93%). It is manufactured from quartzite with a small amount of mineralizer and fired at high temperatures. Its mineral composition consists of a multiphase structure including tridymite, cristobalite,…

Properties and Fundamental Requirements of Refractory Materials

Generally speaking, refractory materials are inorganic non-metallic materials with a refractoriness of no less than 1580°C. Refractoriness refers to the stability of a refractory material in resisting high-temperature effects without load, that is, its ability to resist melting or softening…

Heat Treatment Furnace  

The heat treatment furnace is a fundamental piece of equipment in the heat treatment workshops of metallurgical plants and machinery manufacturing factories. In metallurgical plants, the primary subjects of heat treatment are metal ingots, plates, tubes, wires, as well as…
