Electric arc furnaces (EAFs) are core equipment in modern short-process steelmaking, and their lining materials directly affect furnace life, energy consumption, and production stability. Magnesia bricks, due to their excellent high-temperature performance and resistance to chemical erosion, have become an indispensable key refractory material in … Lire la suite

What are Ceramic Foam Filter Sheets? Ceramic foam filter sheets are porous ceramic materials made primarily from alumina, silicon carbide, or zirconium oxide. They possess a three-dimensional, interconnected open-pore structure, resembling a sponge in appearance. Their porosity is typically between 75% and 90%, with uniform … Lire la suite

The boiler ash chamber is a critical component of the boiler system, subjected to high temperatures, ash erosion, and frequent thermal cycles. Therefore, it demands high strength, wear resistance, and thermal stability from refractory materials. Using refractory castables for solid brick forming is a mature … Lire la suite

High alumina cement (HAC), also known as calcium aluminate cement, is a specialized hydraulic binder made from alumina-rich raw materials. With an alumina content typically between 40% and 80%, it offers outstanding heat resistance, rapid strength development, and strong durability in corrosive environments. These characteristics … Lire la suite

Andalusite bricks are high-performance refractory bricks widely used in high-temperature industries such as metallurgy, glass, and ceramics due to their excellent high-temperature resistance. Their temperature resistance can reach 1700℃, mainly due to the material’s chemical composition, crystal structure, and advanced firing process. Firstly, from a … Lire la suite
