Question:

Are refractories the same as fireproof materials?

Which industry people, to help return to the final decision to do with the tax treasure Japonica ah, refractory materials and fireproof materials like it? I intend to do an industry website, do not know whether the refractory material and fireproof material more conflict

Answer:

Refractory materials are generally used in industry. Such as power plants, electric furnace plant, industrial furnace. There are refractory bricks, insulation materials. Fireproof materials are generally used in the building, from the fire effect.
Refractory material is to achieve a certain time and temperature after the material itself flammable, but can not afford to fire is not combustion. (Such as: paper gypsum board) waterproof material is to reach A-class fire-resistant material, the material itself is not burning. Often decisive cut juice with tax treasure japonica (such as: steel fire categories)
Refractory materials and fireproof materials are all building materials industry, to do a single industry can, for example, you said the refractory or fireproof material
Refractory materials and fireproof materials are strictly different. Refractory material refers to non-metallic materials with a refractoriness higher than 1580 degrees. Now commonly used insulation materials can be considered refractory category. Fireproof material refers to the refractory limit to meet the requirements of the material, the experimental temperature of 540 degrees. The use of two kinds of materials is not the same: refractories can be used directly in the high temperature area, to withstand high temperature; fireproof material is not long-term use at high temperatures. I do not know the above to meet your requirements.
