Analysis on Product Characteristics and Classification of Mullite Insulating Bricks

Mullite insulation brick is mullite (3Al2O3 · 2SiO2) as the main phase of the high-alumina refractories. General alumina content of 65% to 75%. Mineral composition In addition to mullite, which contains the lower alumina also contains a small amount of glass phase and cristobalite; containing higher alumina also contains a small amount of corundum. Mullite insulation brick can be directly used for high temperature furnace lining, has been widely used in shuttle kiln, roller kiln, glass and petrochemical furnace lining.

First, the mullite insulation brick product features:
1, low thermal conductivity, with good insulation effect;
2, mullite insulation brick low melting, due to low thermal conductivity, mullite series of lightweight insulation brick accumulation of little heat energy, intermittent operation in the energy-saving effect is obvious; 3, impurity content is very low, Metal and other oxide content, therefore, high refractoriness; higher aluminum content in the reducing atmosphere to maintain good performance;
4, mullite thermal insulation brick high pressure strength;
5, the appearance of accurate size, speed up the masonry speed, reducing the use of refractory material mud to ensure the strength and stability of masonry, lining to extend the life;
6, mullite insulation brick can be processed into a special shape. To reduce the number of brickwork and joints.
Second, the mullite insulation brick classification: mullite insulation brick according to the density of different light and heavy mullite bricks, according to the use of different temperature is divided into: 1350 mullite insulation brick, 1450 mullah Stone insulation brick, 1550 mullite bricks and so on. Mullite insulation brick performance and its application: high refractoriness, up to 1790 ℃ or more. The softening start temperature of the load is 1600 to 1700 ° C. Room temperature compressive strength of 70 ~ 260MPa. Thermal shock resistance is good. There are sintered mullite bricks and fused mullite bricks. Sintered mullite brick to bauxite clinker as the main raw material, adding a small amount of clay or bauxite as binder, by molding, firing and made. Fused mullite bricks to high bauxite, industrial alumina and fireclay refractories as raw materials, by adding charcoal or coke fine particles as a reducing agent, forming after the use of reduced melting method to manufacture. The fused mullite is more crystalline than the sintered mullite and has better thermal shock resistance than the sintered product. Their high temperature properties depend mainly on the alumina content and the homogeneity of the mullite phase with the glass distribution. Mainly used for hot stove top, blast furnace and the bottom of the furnace, glass furnace regenerator, ceramic sintering kiln, oil cracking system, such as dead angle lining.
