[0002] In the field of refractory materials, magnesia-carbon bricks are widely used due to their excellent high-temperature resistance and good oxidation resistance, especially in the steel industry.

[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This invention discloses a rare-earth-modified magnesia-carbon brick and its preparation method. The method involves mixing fused magnesia particles, additives, and antioxidants, wetting them with a mixture of ethylene glycol and anhydrous ethanol, mixing again, adding rare-earth oxides, fine fused magnesia powder, a carbon source, a catalyst, hexamethylenetetramine, and a binder, mixing again, transferring the mixture to a tablet press for molding, then coating it with a coating material, drying it, and finally heat-treating it in a muffle furnace with carbon embedded in the surface. After cooling, the resulting rare-earth-modified magnesia-carbon brick is obtained. The use of multi-level particles and fine powder achieves close packing, increasing the brick's bulk density and room-temperature strength, while reducing porosity, effectively resisting the erosion of alkaline slag. Additives are added to improve the toughness, anti-stripping properties, and high-temperature flexural strength of the material; carbon sources provide excellent thermal shock resistance and non-wetting properties, improving the microscopic toughness of the material; rare earth oxides form a dense, high-viscosity protective layer on the surface of the brick, improving corrosion resistance, high-temperature flexural strength, and stability; antioxidants provide gradient protection; catalysts are added to generate carbon nanotubes in situ, improving the high-temperature mechanical properties of magnesia-carbon bricks; binders are added to improve the thermal shock resistance, mechanical impact resistance, and erosion resistance of the material; coatings form a dense, high-melting-point yttrium oxide coating on the surface of the brick blank, directly contacting the slag and delaying the erosion of the brick body by the slag.

[0024] In the preparation of rare earth-modified magnesium-carbon bricks, additives were first prepared. Phenol and formaldehyde reacted under the alkaline catalyst NaOH to generate hydroxymethylphenol. Plant polyphenols contain multiple phenolic hydroxyl groups and benzene rings, which react with multiple formaldehyde molecules, introducing higher cross-linking points into the phenolic resin network, making the three-dimensional resin network more dense and robust. Hydroxymethylphenols underwent a condensation reaction to form phenolic resin. The added methylphenyl dimethoxysilane hydrolyzed to generate silanol, which underwent a co-condensation reaction with the phenolic hydroxyl groups on the phenolic resin chain to form Si-OC covalent bonds. Silanols also self-condensed to form a Si-O-Si network. Rare earth metal compounds... Encased in a polymer network, the Si-O bonds exhibit extremely high chemical and thermal stability, effectively resisting the chemical erosion of molten slag. The integrated rare earth elements transform into high-melting-point rare earth oxides at high temperatures or react with molten slag to form high-melting-point rare earth silicates, forming a dense barrier layer on the material surface and delaying slag penetration and erosion. Magnesium powder undergoes a Grignard reaction with chlorotrimethoxysilane to generate a Grignard reagent, which then undergoes nucleophilic addition with (4-bromophenylethynyl)trimethylsilane, attaching the trimethoxysilane group to the phenylethynyl backbone. Under the action of KOH / methanol, the terminal trimethylsilane protecting group is removed, yielding the modifier. Its methoxysilane end can hydrolyze and form a strong Si-O-Al covalent bond with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of alumina fibers. The highly reactive phenylacetylene group at the other end can undergo a co-crosslinking reaction with silanarylene resin and precursor resin under curing and high temperature conditions, improving the toughness of the composite material and preventing brittle fracture. Through physical impregnation and solvent evaporation processes, the modifier chemically bonds to the fiber surface. Alumina fibers, as the skeleton of the preform, possess extremely high high-temperature flexural strength and modulus. The modifier treatment ensures a strong chemical bond between the fiber and the matrix. Further bonding occurs between the precursor and silanarylene resin during the stepped temperature curing process. The cross-linking reaction forms a highly cross-linked three-dimensional network structure. The programmed drying process removes the solvent while shrinking and strengthening the network structure. Phenolic resin, silane-modified inorganic network, and silaneyne resin are cured together to form an organic-inorganic interpenetrating network. After high-temperature carbonization, a multiphase composite material composed of nano-carbon, SiC, rare earth oxides, and alumina fibers is generated. Alumina fibers act as a reinforcing skeleton, providing the main load-bearing and toughening effects. SiC and nano-carbon fill the spaces between the fibers, serving as a strong and tough matrix that provides extremely high high-temperature flexural strength and hardness. The rare earth phase is dispersed in the matrix, improving the material's corrosion resistance.

[0025] In the preparation of rare-earth modified magnesia-carbon bricks, modified coal tar pitch was first prepared. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) mainly served as a compatibilizer and plasticizer; its long-chain ether structure interspersed between the macromolecules of coal tar pitch, improving the mixing uniformity of the components. Divinylbenzene, containing two unsaturated double bonds, formed a robust three-dimensional cross-linked network between the aromatic macromolecules of coal tar pitch through free radical polymerization under heating conditions, transforming the thermoplastic coal tar pitch into a thermosetting resin. This prevented it from melting and flowing during subsequent carbonization, allowing it to maintain its shape and improving the residual carbon rate. Polystyrene, as a polymer blending modifier, has a benzene ring structure that has good compatibility with coal tar pitch, enabling physical blending and... It can undergo grafting reactions, increasing the molecular weight and viscosity of the system and strengthening the three-dimensional network. The added phenolic resin is a thermosetting resin with high residual carbon. During the heating process, the phenolic resin itself is further cross-linked and cured. Its molecular chains interpenetrate with the coal tar pitch network that has been cross-linked with divinylbenzene. After modification, the resulting coal tar pitch has a higher residual carbon rate and optimized carbon structure when used as a binder and carbon source for magnesia-carbon bricks, forming a continuous and stable carbon skeleton. The modified carbon structure is more compact and has fewer pores, which physically hinders the inward diffusion of oxygen and makes it less susceptible to oxidation. The strengthened carbon network can more effectively block the penetration of molten slag and improve corrosion resistance.

[0026] In the preparation of rare-earth-modified magnesia-carbon bricks, a binder was first prepared. Phenol and formaldehyde under the action of concentrated hydrochloric acid underwent an electrophilic substitution condensation reaction to generate thermoplastic phenolic resin. In an acidic reaction environment, molybdate ions coordinated with the phenolic hydroxyl groups of the phenolic resin, introducing molybdenum into the molecular structure of the resin. After neutralizing the reaction system, carboxyl-based nitrile rubber latex was added. The carboxyl-based nitrile rubber particles in the latex and the phenolic resin formed a physical blend under stirring. Under vacuum dehydration and heat treatment, the hydroxymethyl groups of the phenolic resin and the carboxyl groups on the nitrile rubber chains underwent an esterification reaction to form chemical bonds. Ethylene glycol was used as a diluent and stabilizer to prevent resin crystallization and adjust the viscosity of the binder. After carbonization in the magnesia-carbon bricks, this binder formed a high-performance... The carbon-bonded phase, a high-strength carbon network catalyzed by molybdate, possesses higher strength and modulus, improving high-temperature flexural strength. After high-temperature carbonization, carboxylated nitrile rubber leaves behind carbonized residues with good toughness and high strength, which can effectively bridge and passivate microcracks. Through the "pull-out effect," it consumes the energy of crack propagation, thereby endowing the carbon-bonded phase with excellent toughness and significantly improving the material's thermal shock resistance and mechanical impact resistance. The introduced molybdenum element will be converted into molybdenum oxide at high temperatures. In the reducing atmosphere of magnesia-carbon bricks and in the presence of carbon and metal additives, it reacts to generate high-melting-point molybdenum carbide or molybdenum borides and silicides, which have extremely high hardness, melting point, and chemical inertness. Dispersed in the carbon-bonded phase, it can greatly hinder the penetration and erosion of slag, thereby improving corrosion resistance. Attached Figure Description

[0037] The corrosion resistance of the rare earth-modified magnesia-carbon bricks prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 was tested by the alkali vapor method in the standard GB / T14983-2008 "Test Method for Alkali Resistance of Refractory Materials". Type 1: The surface is black and undamaged, and the fracture surface is only eroded by 1-4mm; Category 2: The surface is black with severe edge and corner damage and small cracks. The entire fracture is grayish-black, with only a small amount of the core remaining uncorroded. Category 3: The surface is black with obvious cracks, the edges and corners are severely damaged, and the entire fracture surface is black. The high-temperature flexural strength of magnesia-carbon bricks at 1400℃ was tested according to standard GB / T 3002-2017 "Test Method for High-Temperature Flexural Strength of Refractory Materials"; the test results are as follows. Figure 1-2 As shown: In Examples 1-3, the amount of additives and rare earth oxides gradually increases, resulting in a denser distribution of reinforcing fibers, a more complete microscopic composite material network, and more significant toughening and reinforcing effects. Rare earth oxides are directly used as functional fillers, and the increased amount leads to more rare earth atoms accumulating at the MgO grain boundaries, more effectively eliminating impurity phases such as low-melting-point silicates, making the grain boundaries more stable and stronger at high temperatures. More rare earth oxides react with the intruding slag to generate a high-melting-point, high-viscosity rare earth silicate protective layer, enhancing corrosion resistance. Optimization of carbon source quality: The increased ratio of modified coal tar pitch to graphite results in a higher quality carbon-bonded phase, a stronger carbon network, and enhanced high-temperature strength.

[0038] Comparing Example 2 with Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that: Comparative Example 1 lacks additives, modified coal tar pitch, and binders, and uses brittle glassy carbon formed by ordinary phenolic resin and ordinary coal tar pitch as the binding phase, and there is no reinforcing skeleton. Example 2 uses additives, and the rare earth elements in the additives and the molybdenum in the binder can generate a high-melting-point protective phase at high temperatures, actively resisting slag penetration. The alumina fibers in the additives provide a fiber toughening effect, which can effectively bridge and prevent crack propagation. The molybdate in the binder catalyzes the generation of higher-strength "graphite-like" carbon. Together, the two construct a strong and tough carbon composite binding phase. The carbon network of Comparative Example 1 is fragile and easily oxidized.

[0039] Comparing Example 2 with Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that: Comparative Example 2 used additives but did not use modified coal tar pitch or binder. Although Comparative Example 2 has reinforcing fibers, the quality of the carbon-bonded phase that wraps the fibers is poor. The carbon-bonded phase formed by ordinary coal tar pitch and phenolic resin is fragile and porous, and cannot effectively transfer stress to the fibers, resulting in weak high-temperature flexural strength. The carbon-bonded phase of Comparative Example 2 itself has weak oxidation and erosion resistance. Slag and alkaline vapors can easily corrode the fragile carbon matrix, resulting in poor corrosion resistance.

[0040] Comparing Example 2 with Comparative Example 3, it can be seen that: Comparative Example 3 used an optimized carbon source and binder, but lacked additives. Comparative Example 3 lacked a fiber toughening mechanism. The carbon-bonded phase itself has high strength, but it is a brittle material. Once microcracks are generated, they will rapidly propagate and lead to fracture. The alumina fibers in Example 2 can effectively pin cracks and deflect crack paths. Through processes such as fiber pull-out, a large amount of energy is absorbed, resulting in higher flexural strength and better toughness. Due to the lack of fiber toughening, Comparative Example 3 is more prone to macroscopic cracks and structural spalling under the combined effects of thermal stress and chemical corrosion, resulting in weaker corrosion resistance.
