TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of refractory materials, in particular to a high-strength carbon-free ladle wall corundum brick and its application on a ladle. BACKGROUND
[0002] The ladle is also called a steel ladle, a steel bucket, a large ladle, etc., and is used for steelmaking water. In the ladle, the steel water is also subjected to refining treatment and other process flows. The ladle is composed of an outer shell, an inner lining, and a flow control mechanism. The inner lining of the ladle is composed of a heat preservation layer, a permanent layer, and a working layer. The heat preservation layer is close to the steel plate, and the thickness is about 10-15mm, which is mainly used to reduce heat loss, and is commonly built with asbestos board; the permanent layer is inside the heat preservation layer, and the thickness is about 30-60mm, which is mainly used to prevent the steel water from burning through the ladle, and is commonly built with clay and high-aluminum bricks; the working layer is inside the permanent layer, which directly contacts with the steel water and slag, and is subjected to mechanical scouring and rapid cooling and heating, and is easy to peel off, and is commonly built with comprehensive bricks, that is, the ladle bottom is built with wax bricks or high-aluminum bricks, the ladle wall is built with high-aluminum bricks, aluminum-carbon bricks, and the slag line position is commonly built with magnesium-carbon bricks, and the service life of the ladle is related to the quality of the layer, so the selection of the material of the layer is very important.
[0003] At present, the ladle wall bricks in China are mainly magnesium-aluminum-carbon and magnesium-carbon, but these materials have poor thermal shock stability. Severe mechanical scouring and frequent cold and hot alternation cause thermal stress in the ladle wall bricks, which leads to peeling and cracking in the use process, and affects the safety and service life of the ladle. With the increasing demand for various high-quality steel grades, it is required to reduce the use of carbon-containing refractory materials in the steelmaking process as much as possible to reduce the adverse effects of carbon increase on the molten steel. Therefore, the steel plant requires that the ladle wall be built with carbon-free bricks. Therefore, a high-strength carbon-free ladle wall brick is needed to meet the current demand of the steel plant for high thermal shock stability and carbon-free of the ladle wall brick. SUMMARY
