[0080] According to the test results obtained in the table, it can be seen from Examples 1, 2, 3 and Comparative Examples 1, 2, 3 that adding different proportions of rare earth modified additives can effectively improve the bulk density of the castable, and improve the flexural strength, compressive strength and heat storage capacity. This shows that the rare earth additives, under high temperature conditions, use their unique physical and chemical properties to react with SiO2 in the refractory castable to more easily generate new component phases, such as (LaCe)2·2SiO2, La2O3·SiO2, Y2O3·SiO2 or Ho2O3·SiO2, etc., to promote the growth and development of crystalline phases such as mullite (3Al2O3·2SiO2), improve the crystallinity of phase change products, improve the microstructure of the castable, and thus improve the density and flexural and compressive strength of the refractory castable, reduce the porosity and thermal conductivity, and thus improve the heat storage rate of the material. However, while increasing the density, the linear change rate of the castable increases. When only a single rare earth additive of lanthanum cerium oxide or yttrium-rich rare earth oxide is added, although the bulk density, flexural strength, compressive strength and heat storage capacity of the castable are also improved, the increase is lower than that of the castable with the same amount of rare earth modified additives added, indicating that the effect of adding lanthanum cerium oxide and yttrium-rich rare earth oxide at the same time is more obvious than that of a single rare earth additive.
