Question:

Who knows that among refractory materials, insulation boards from which refractory material industry is superior in quality?

Who knows that among refractory materials, insulation boards from which refractory material industry is superior in quality?

Answer:

When casting ingot, after high temperature molten steel is poured into ingot mold, molten steel keeps shrinking during cooling, for example, killed steel is shrinking 3% --5%. because of fast heat dissipation of ingot head , some shrinkage holes appear at the head of ingot. Therefore, you should cut shrinkage holes which account for more than 15% of the ingot quality in the head while cutting steel ingot cogging. If effective measures were taken to insulate the head of ingot from heat, then the coagulation time of ingot head would lag behind in the body of the ingot solidification, which will greatly shrinkage holes, improve ingot yield so as to reduce energy consumption of steelmaking. Adiabatic plate can achieve this purpose. China Heng insulation board has the advantages of uplifting adiabaticity and small heat capacity, so that it greatly reduced heat loss of molten steel, And the tundish can be directly put into use without preheating, thereby saving a large amount of preheating fuel. So in the current process of continuous casting, the heat insulation board is the main material of tundish lining.
Using high temperature insulation material during casting process .In the molding, assembly the insulation?board on the ingot head or install heat insulation cap . There are three ways to install the molded steel insulation board and install insulation?board on at the head of the ingot, namely, clamping, nail fixation and mosaic technique.Compared with clay-based liner, the use of insulating board will improve high steel billet rate up to about 5% to 10%.
