What's the difference between fired clay bricks and sintered porous bricks?

Answer:

Fired clay brick is a common brick made of clay as the main raw material. It is divided into five strength grades MU30, MU25, MU20, MU15 and MU10 according to the compressive strength. Strength, resistance to weathering of radioactive material and qualified brick, according to the size deviation, appearance quality, efflorescence and lime burst divided into high-class product (A), Al (B), (C) three qualified product quality grade. Excellent products for drywall and wall decoration, wall can be used for mixing first-class products, qualified products. Medium frosted bricks should not be used for damp parts. The shape of the brick is right angled hexahedron, its nominal size is: 240MM long, 115MM wide and 53MM high. The product mark of brick is written according to the product name, category, intensity grade, quality grade and standard number.
Clay, shale, coal gangue or fly ash as the main raw material, calcined by the hole rate of not less than 25%, the size of the hole is small and large number, mainly used for load-bearing parts of the brick, referred to as porous brick. At present, sintered porous bricks are divided into two types of P bricks and M bricks. As compared with ordinary clay bricks, sintered porous bricks have higher compressive strength, corrosion resistance and durability, as well as light weight and good thermal insulation performance. Sintered porous bricks can be widely used in load-bearing walls of industrial and civil buildings.
