Thermal shock stability is related to the structure. Dense products have good corrosion resistance, but poor thermal shock stability. Corundum bricks come in two types: sintered corundum bricks and fused corundum bricks. Sintered corundum bricks are made from sintered alumina and electro-fused corundum, or from kaolin clinker and sintered alumina with a high Al2O3/SiO2 ratio. They are produced by the sintering method. Un-sintered corundum bricks can also be made using phosphoric acid or other binders.
Advantages of Corundum Bricks
High hardness
The hardness of corundum bricks is extremely high. The hardness of corundum bricks is close to the Mohs hardness of 9, which is harder than steel.
Corrosion resistance
Corundum bricks have strong corrosion resistance to various acids, alkalis and chemical solutions, and can work stably in harsh chemical environments.
High-temperature resistant
The load-softening point of corundum bricks is generally between 1600 and 1800 degrees Celsius, and their refractory temperature can reach 1770 to 2000 degrees Celsius.
Dimensional stability
Corundum bricks have excellent thermal shock resistance and a refractory temperature of no less than 1690 degrees. Their linear expansion coefficient within the temperature range of 20-450 degrees is approximately 0.03 millimeters per degree, allowing them to withstand high-temperature molten static pressure without cracking.
Outstanding heat insulation performance
Corundum bricks are an excellent insulating material that can block current and heat conduction. They are suitable for high-temperature electrical insulation and heat insulation applications.
Good air permeability
The gases that are released from the melt of zirconia-alumina bricks can penetrate through the gaps between the silicon sand particles on the forming wall, thus achieving good air permeability.
The application of corundum bricks
It is used in iron-making blast furnaces and hot air furnaces, external refining furnaces in steelmaking furnaces, sliding water heaters, glass melting furnaces and industrial furnaces in the petrochemical industry.
