Light corundum-mullite refractory brick and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a light corundum-mullite refractory brick and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the steps of evenly dispersing 0.5-1wt% of silicon oxide micro powder and 2-4wt% of active alpha alumina micro powder in 5-8wt% of silica sol to obtain modified silica sol, placing 40-70wt% of porous corundum-mullite ceramic particles in a vacuum mixer, carrying out vacuum pumping until the vacuum is below 2.5 kPa, keeping the constant pressure for three minutes, then pouring the modified silica sol into the vacuum mixer, mixing for ten minutes and closing the vacuum pumping system, pouring 10-25wt% of porous corundum-mullite ceramic fine powder, 10-20wt% of corundum fine powder, 1.5-4wt% of silicon oxide micro powder and 1-3wt% of active alpha alumina micro powder into the vacuum mixer for mixing and mechanical pressing, drying and finally preserving heat at 1400-1600 DEG C for 2-10 hours. The prepared product has the characteristics of controllability in apparent porosity and pore size, low thermal conductivity, good thermal shock stability and strong medium erosion resistance.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lightweight refractory bricks. In particular, it relates to a lightweight corundum-mullite refractory brick and a preparation method thereof. Background technique

[0002] Lightweight corundum-mullite refractories have low thermal conductivity and excellent high-temperature performance, and have been widely used as thermal insulation linings for high-temperature vessels. At present, the development of lightweight corundum-mullite refractories includes two aspects:

[0003] (1) Lightweight corundum-mullite refractories with homogeneous structure. For example, use gel injection molding technology to prepare mullite-corundum lightweight bricks with high-alumina bauxite, silica fume and polystyrene ball pore-forming agents (Yang Daoyuan et al., High-strength and low-thermal conductivity mullite-corundum lightweight bricks Preparation of Rare Metal Materials and Engineering, 2009, 38 (2): 1237-1240), using ...
