Refractory is a high-temperature material that has excellent resistance to high temperatures, corrosion and wear. It is widely used in various industries such as metallurgy, chemical industry, construction, etc.
Its main functions include:
1. High temperature resistance: Refractory castable maintains stable physical and chemical properties at high temperatures without melting or softening. This allows it to be used in extremely high temperature environments, such as converters and arc furnaces for steel smelting.
2. Corrosion resistance: Refractory castable is resistant to erosion caused by aggressive media such as acids and alkalis and is not damaged by this erosion. This allows it to be used in the chemical industry, especially in reactors and sulfuric acid storage tanks.
3. Wear resistance: Refractory castables have good wear resistance and are difficult to break under physical forces or friction. This makes it suitable for use in equipment that requires frequent contact with objects or liquids, such as cement kilns, crushers, etc.
4. Thermal insulation: Refractory castables can play an important role in thermal insulation and reducing energy loss. This makes it suitable for use in the construction sector, especially for the manufacture of fire walls and partitions in high-rise buildings.
Refractory castables are very important high-temperature materials with many exceptional properties and functions. They play an important role in industrial production, and with the development of science and technology and the continued expansion of their application areas, their application prospects will continue to expand.
