So what kind of refractory bricks are mullite lightweight insulation bricks? What are the differences between each model?
PART 01 Performance of lightweight mullite insulation bricks
① High temperature resistance: The main component of lightweight mullite insulation bricks is mullite, which has a melting point of up to 1850℃ and has extremely high high temperature resistance. Under high temperature conditions, lightweight mullite insulation bricks can maintain a stable structure and are not prone to deformation and melting.
② Anti-corrosion performance: Lightweight mullite insulation bricks contain a large amount of mullite and have good resistance to acid and alkali erosion. In various acidic and alkaline environments, lightweight mullite insulation bricks can maintain high chemical stability and extend their service life.
③ Anti-wear performance: Lightweight mullite insulation bricks have a high hardness, with a Mohs hardness of 9, and have good anti-wear performance. Under the scouring of high-speed flowing materials, lightweight mullite insulation bricks can maintain good wear resistance and reduce the number of equipment maintenance times.
④ Thermal shock stability: Lightweight mullite insulation bricks have high thermal shock stability and can maintain stable performance in an environment with rapid temperature changes. During the process of high-temperature rapid cooling, lightweight mullite insulation bricks are not prone to cracks and peeling, ensuring the safe operation of the equipment.
⑤ Good thermal insulation performance: Lightweight mullite insulation bricks have a low density and good thermal insulation performance. In high-temperature equipment, lightweight mullite insulation bricks can effectively reduce heat loss and reduce energy consumption.
⑥ Lightweight and high strength: Lightweight mullite insulation bricks adopt a special production process, which makes them lightweight and high-strength. While ensuring thermal insulation performance, lightweight mullite insulation bricks have high strength and can meet the needs of various high-temperature equipment.
PART 02 Production process of lightweight mullite insulation bricks
The production process of lightweight mullite insulation bricks mainly includes the selection, crushing, mixing, molding and firing of raw materials.
① Raw material selection: The main raw material of lightweight mullite insulation bricks is mullite, and it also contains a small amount of auxiliary components such as alumina and calcium oxide. The choice of raw materials directly affects the performance and service life of lightweight mullite insulation bricks.
② Crushing: crush the raw materials to make them uniform in particle size, which is conducive to subsequent mixing and molding.
③ Mixing: mix the crushed raw materials, add appropriate amount of water and binder, make the various components fully combine to form a uniform mud.
④ Molding: mold the mixed mud, and use pressing, pouring and other methods to make lightweight mullite insulation bricks of different shapes and sizes.
⑤ Firing: the molded lightweight mullite insulation bricks are fired at high temperature to stabilize their structure and improve their fire resistance. The firing temperature is usually between 1400-1600℃, and the firing time depends on the thickness and size of the product.
PART 03 Application fields of lightweight mullite insulation bricks
Lightweight mullite insulation bricks are widely used in various high-temperature equipment in metallurgy, chemical industry, building materials and other industries, such as ladle, iron ladle, glass kiln, cement rotary kiln, cracking furnace, tubular heating furnace, converter, hot air furnace, ladle insulation lining, shuttle kiln tunnel kiln, ceramic roller kiln, push plate kiln and other industrial furnace refractory insulation materials. As lining materials, lightweight mullite insulation bricks can effectively protect equipment from high temperature, acid and alkali erosion and material erosion, extend the service life of equipment and reduce production costs. At the same time, lightweight mullite insulation bricks have good thermal insulation properties, can reduce heat loss and reduce energy consumption.
PART 04 The difference between Jm23/Jm26/Jm28/Jm30
In the production of mullite lightweight insulation bricks
Jm23/Jm26/Jm28/Jm30 in lightweight mullite insulation bricks represent brick numbers of different grades. Lightweight mullite insulation bricks of different grades will have differences in insulation performance, physical and chemical indicators and applicable scope. So what are the differences between them?
① Different Al2O3 content
The alumina content of lightweight mullite insulation bricks is 38-44%, 50-58%, 60-70%, and 70-73% respectively. The higher the grade, the higher the alumina content, which affects the insulation performance and refractory temperature.
② Different refractory temperatures
The refractory temperatures of the four levels of lightweight mullite bricks are 1350℃, 1430℃, 1540℃, and 1600℃ respectively. The higher the level, the higher the refractory temperature. This is also the case with the increase in alumina content, the refractory temperature also increases, and the stability of lightweight mullite insulation bricks in high temperature environments is better.
③ Different volume density
Among them, the volume density of JM23 is 0.6g/cm3, the volume density of JM26 and JM28 is the same at 0.8g/cm3, and the volume density of JM30 is 1g/cm3;
④ Different compressive strength at room temperature
The compressive strength of lightweight mullite insulation bricks is 1.3Mpa, 2Mpa, 3Mpa and 3.5Mpa respectively. The higher the compressive strength at room temperature, the greater the load-bearing capacity and service life of the bricks.
