Can anyone tell me what is a high alumina refractory?
Refractories refer to a class of inorganic non-metallic materials whose refractoriness are no less than 1580 ℃. Refractoriness is the Celsius temperature when cone-shaped samples can resist high temperature without softening and melting down in the absence of a load. But it is not accurate to define refractory merely by judging that whether the refractoriness is no less than 1580 ℃. Currently, the materials whose physical and chemical properties allow them to be used in high temperature environments are called refractories. Refractory materials are widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, petroleum, machinery manufacturing, power and so on, among which the metallurgical industry is the largest demander in this regard, accounting for 50% to 60% of total output. Hope it will help you out!
High alumina refractories: High-alumina refractory products have high refractoriness, compressive strength and refractoriness under load, which are used for building the high-temperature parts of various large blast furnaces, such steelmaking furnace, airheater, electric furnace, rotary?kiln and other thermal equipment.
