Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of refractory material preparation, relates to the preparation of brick glaze, and specifically relates to a novel furnace door brick glaze and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Traditional cordierite furnace door bricks for coke ovens are increasingly unable to meet production needs due to their short service life, long maintenance time and troublesome replacement, which seriously restricts the output of coke. In order to solve this problem, large-scale glazed cordierite furnace door bricks that are cast as a whole have been developed. Compared with previous bricks, this type of brick has a longer service life and is easier to replace. In order to ensure that the glaze is firmly bonded to the brick body without cracking or peeling, it is necessary to introduce spodumene with a low expansion coefficient into the glaze. However, with the development and popularity of new energy, the resources of lithium raw materials are very tight. The market was once faced with the situation where there was no spodumene available. At the same time, due to the shortage and characteristics of lithium resources, the cost of furnace door brick glaze is relatively high, which greatly limits the output and development of furnace door bricks.

[0003] Therefore, a new technical solution is needed to solve this problem. Summary of the invention

[0004] Purpose of the invention: In order to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, a new type of furnace door brick glaze and a preparation method thereof are provided, which gets rid of the dependence of the furnace door brick glaze on spodumene, and obtains a furnace door brick glaze that does not contain a spodumene system. While ensuring the high toughness and thermal shock stability of the furnace door brick glaze, the restriction of spodumene on production is eliminated, which not only expands the production of furnace door bricks, but also reduces the cost of brick glaze and improves market competitiveness.

[0005] Technical solution: To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides a new type of furnace door brick glaze, which includes the following components in terms of mass percentage:

[0006] 10%-20% feldspar, 20%-30% talc, 10%-20% calcite, 10%-20% quartz powder, 5%-15% zirconium dioxide, 5%-10% Suzhou clay, 5%-10% zinc oxide.

[0007] The present invention also provides a method for preparing a novel furnace door brick glaze, comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1: Weigh each component raw material according to the proportion;

[0009] S2: Put the weighed raw materials into a ball bucket, add water and grind them together to form glaze water;

[0010] S3: Spray the glaze water evenly on the surface of the furnace door bricks;

[0011] S4: Send the furnace door bricks into the kiln for firing, completing the preparation of the brick glaze.

[0012] Furthermore, the amount of water added in step S2 is 60% of the weight of the weighed raw materials.

[0013] Furthermore, the co-grinding time in step S2 is 23 to 25 hours.

[0014] Furthermore, in step S3, the glaze water is evenly sprayed on the surface of the furnace door bricks, and the glaze thickness is controlled to be 1-2 mm.

[0015] Furthermore, in step S4, the sintering temperature is controlled at 1200°C-1300°C.

[0016] The existing furnace door brick glaze uses a large amount of spodumene. Because spodumene has a low expansion coefficient, the glaze surface of the brick can achieve a low expansion coefficient, which improves the stability of the glaze surface and allows the glaze surface to stably exist on the surface of the furnace door brick without large cracks and peeling. Because spodumene is a medium-temperature raw material, other medium-temperature raw materials are needed to adjust the firing temperature of the furnace door bricks.

[0017] With respect to the above-mentioned existing furnace door brick glaze, in order to get rid of the dependence of brick glaze on spodumene, the furnace door brick glaze provided by the present invention selects talc and zinc oxide with relatively low expansion coefficients, and increases their usage to minimize the expansion coefficient of the glaze surface. Since talc, calcite and zinc oxide in the raw materials are all low-temperature raw materials, the present invention uses zirconium dioxide, a high-temperature raw material, to adjust the temperature, thereby adjusting the firing temperature of the furnace door bricks.

[0018] The technical difficulty of the present invention is that talc and zinc oxide alone cannot achieve the same glaze expansion coefficient as spodumene, while the use of zirconium dioxide achieves an effect beyond expectations from another perspective, specifically including the following two points:

[0019] ① Zirconium dioxide does not participate in the melting of the glaze, but plays a filling role to increase the hardness and strength of the glaze.

[0020] The principle is that at the specific firing temperature of the furnace door bricks, zirconium dioxide will not melt; on the one hand, zirconium dioxide plays a role similar to particle filling, and on the other hand, zirconium dioxide itself has good strength and hardness. The combination of the two can effectively increase the hardness and strength of the glaze.

[0021] ② Zirconium dioxide undergoes a crystal phase transformation at high temperatures to produce microcracks, which can effectively increase the toughness and thermal shock resistance of the glaze.

[0022] The principle of the crystal phase transformation and microcracks is that during the heating process, monoclinic zirconium dioxide will transform into tetragonal zirconium dioxide and be accompanied by a large volume shrinkage, so that a crystal phase transformation will occur and microcracks will be produced. The temperature at which the zirconium dioxide crystal phase transformation occurs is around 1200°C, which just matches the firing temperature.

[0023] The present invention changes the toughness and thermal shock resistance of the glaze itself by adding zirconium dioxide, and increases the hardness and strength of the glaze, thereby compensating for the lack of glaze stability caused by the difference in the glaze expansion coefficient, and can achieve the glaze to be stably present on the surface of the furnace door brick without large cracks and peeling, perfectly replacing the stone furnace door brick glaze containing the spodumene system, and has a very large cost advantage. Among them, the improvement of toughness and thermal shock stability are related to the generation of microcracks, but the thermal shock stability also depends on the strength of the glaze and its own expansion coefficient, porosity, etc.

[0024] In the present invention, the amount of zirconium dioxide input must not only meet the requirements of firing temperature adjustment, but also meet the requirements of the toughness and thermal shock resistance of the glaze itself. Both are indispensable. This cannot be easily achieved by simply adjusting the amount of zirconium dioxide input. This requires a specific ratio between the amount of zirconium dioxide input and other raw materials to achieve this effect. This effect is an innovative discovery and cannot be obtained by simple multiple experiments.

[0025] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention gets rid of the dependence of furnace door brick glaze on spodumene, and obtains a furnace door brick glaze that does not contain a spodumene system. While ensuring the high toughness and thermal shock stability of the furnace door brick glaze, the glaze surface is stably present on the surface of the furnace door brick without large-scale cracking and peeling, eliminating the restriction of spodumene on production, not only expanding the production of furnace door bricks, but also reducing the cost of brick glaze and improving market competitiveness.
