The Using properties of Refractory Materials

In use process of refractory material,  due to a variety of differences of environment, a variety of requirements are

proposed on the performance of products, whether to meet the requirements of performance indicators,

become the main measure standard of the quality of refractory products, and also prolong its service life,

improve the important basis of use value.

Refractoriness

Refractoriness is refractory material resist to high temperature function rather than melting performance, its

meaning of refractoriness and melting point are different, melting point is refers to the crystalline phase and

liquid phase of pure substance is in equilibrium temperature. And general refractory material is multiphase

solid mixture composed of a variety of mineral, has no uniform melting point, but began to produce liquid phase

under certain temperature, with temperature rising, the liquid phase ratio increases continuously, to a fixed

temperature, solid phase can all melt for the liquid phase. Between the two fixed temperature range, both liquid

phase and solid phase exist at the same time.

The chemical composition, mineral composition and its distribution of refractory products are the most basic

factors to influence the refractoriness. Impurity elements with strong solvent effect, will seriously reduce the

refractoriness of products. Uneven distribution of composition that cannot form an ideal high melting

point mineral, will lead to lower refractoriness products, so damage the using performance of products, but the

refractoriness of products doesn't mean its use temperature, because refractory material in use, processes

through high temperature function at the same time, often with the solvent effect of load and external things and

so on. Actually allowable working temperature is much lower than refractoriness, but, after all, the refractoriness

index is one of the important reference frame to select reasonably refractory material.

Refractoriness under load

The refractoriness under load of refractory material, also known as the high temperature load deformation

temperature, defined as refractory products under persistent overheating conditions, bear deformation

temperature under constant load. It said the refractory products at the same time resist the ability of high

temperature and load effect.

Linear change on reheating

Linear change on reheating, also known as residual linear change, refers to after the refractory material heated

to high temperature, happens the irreversible changes of its length. The specific definition is refractory products

sample heated to the specified temperature, heat preservation time, after cooling to room temperature, the

length produce residual expansion or contraction.

Thermal shock resistance

Refractory material in use process, the environment temperature change is inevitable. Sometimes it is even

very sharp change, for example, in metallurgical operation, the brick, flat, furnace charging, heating up, the

furnace temperature in the steel, etc.
