who knows the requirements of refractory for forge furnace?
Here is the requirements of refractory for forge furnace: according to the chemical properties,casting fireproof materials are divided into three major categories: acidic, neutral and alkaline refractory materials. alkaline and neutral refractory materials are commonly used, such as alkaline magnesia-carbon bricks and burned magnesite bricks, magnesite-chrome bricks, magnesium-calcium brick, neutral high alumina brick, corundum brick, clay brick, etc., shapelessness materials include: castable refractory, ramming?mass, gunning mix, coating, dry vibrating materials and so on! Hope my answer can help you.
Forging heating furnace working temperatures above 1000 ° C, reasonably choosing refractory for build furnace has an important meaning for guaranteeing the normal operation of the heating furnace, improving the service life of furnace and energy saving. refractory is generally required to have the following properities: 1, it should be equipped with the properity of no deformation and melting under certain temperature. 2, it should be equipped with the neccessary structural strength without softening deformation in high temperature. 3, volume stability at high temperature, brick body won't be deformation or cracked due to expansion and contraction; 4, not broken and peel off under rapid changes of temperature or uneven heating; 5, resistant to chemical erosion of molten metal, slag and furnace gas,etc.
Requirements are as follows: 1, it should have enough refractoriness and softening point under a fixed load. Because under the effect of electric arc, inner surface temperature in different parts of furnace lining can reach 1500 ~ 1800 ℃. 2, it should have strong slag resistance. Because slag and smoke at high temperature penetrate through furnace lining to its internal lining, causing the melting of refractory, organization stratification, and even peeling?off. 3, it should have good thermal shock resistance. Because in the process of steelmaking, openning the oven door and lifting the furnace lid will make temperature of refractories in the furnace lining change rapidly, it might happen peeling?off and cracking, causing the premature failure of furnace lining. 4, it should have sufficient strength, because the furnace lining will be shocked when being loaded, vibrated when being tilted, scoured by metals,molten slag and air flow when boiling. 5, smaller thermal conductivity, lower electrical conductivity. Commonly used refractories for electric furnace include magnesia bricks, dolomite brick, high alumina refractory brick, siliceous refractory brick and magnesite ramming material,etc. owing to the different work environment of each part of the furnace,refractory used by each part is also different.
