A cement-free al2o3-si c-c based refractory castable and method of use thereof
By generating boehmite-coated nano-alumina particles in cementless Al2O3-SiC-C refractory castables and utilizing microcapsules to generate whiskers and fibers at different temperatures, the problems of low initial strength and poor high-temperature performance of cementless castables have been solved. This has resulted in improved density and strength of the material at high temperatures and extended service life.

AI Technical Summary
Existing cement-free Al2O3-SiC-C refractory castables have low initial strength, poor high-temperature performance, short service life, and complex construction process.
The cementless Al2O3-SiC-C refractory castable is composed of aggregates, matrix materials and water-reducing agents. By generating boehmite on the surface of metal powder and coating it with nano-sized alumina particles, a three-dimensional network structure of -O-Al-O- is formed. Combined with aluminum-silicon alloy, aluminum, and aluminum-silicon-iron alloy microcapsules, which rupture at different temperatures to generate whiskers and fibers, the density and strength of the material are enhanced.
It improves the medium and high temperature mechanical properties of the material, extends its service life, has high strength at room temperature, good erosion resistance and thermal shock stability, and is simple to construct. It is suitable for the working layer of molten iron trenches and molten iron ladles.
