The invention relates to a
refractory material, in particular to a silica
brick for a
coke oven of 5.5 m. The silica
brick comprises a
raw material and an auxiliary material, wherein the
raw material comprises the following components in part by weight: 200-250 parts of silica coarse
powder, 330-380 parts of silica medium
powder, 80-130 parts of silica
fine powder and 80-120 parts of residual silica bricks as clinker
powder; the auxiliary material comprises a mineralizing agent,
lime milk and paper pulp which respectively occupy 1.2 percent, 8 percent and 1 percent of the total weight of the
raw material; and the mineralizing agent is formed by mixing
manganese powder of which the content of MnO2 is more than or equal to 25 percent and
iron phosphate powder of which the content of FeO is more than or equal to 65 percent according to the proportion of 1:1. The preparation of the silica
brick comprises the following steps: adding the silica coarse powder, the silica medium powder, the fine power and the residual silica bricks in a wet mill; adding the mineralizing agent for
dry mixing for 4-5 minutes; adding the
lime milk and compacting for 10-15 minutes; adding the paper pulp, mixing till pug is uniform, compacting and forming into a blank. The silica brick is improved from the aspects of raw
material selection, raw material particle grain
fineness, dimension distribution and the like, and the various physical and chemical indexes of the silica brick are superior to the
national standard, so that the service life of the
coke oven can be remarkably improved.
