Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refractory materials technology, specifically to a sol-impregnated composite refractory brick. Background Technology
[0002] Refractory materials are generally divided into two types: unshaped refractories and shaped refractories. Unshaped refractories, also called castables, are mixed powdery granules composed of various aggregates and one or more binders. They must be mixed with one or more liquids before use and have strong fluidity. Shaped refractories generally refer to refractory bricks, which have standard and regular shapes, but can also be custom-made on-site as needed.
[0003] Industrial smelting furnaces, especially those operating under harsh conditions, require refractory bricks with high and stringent specifications. Improving value solely through raw materials and molding processes has limited effect. With the increasing scarcity of refractory raw materials and the fluctuating prices of high-quality raw materials, reducing costs while ensuring necessary specifications is a crucial consideration. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention addresses the above problems by providing a sol-impregnated composite refractory brick.
[0005] The technical solution adopted is a sol-impregnated composite refractory brick, which includes a refractory brick body, wherein the outer peripheral surface of the refractory brick body is impregnated with a sol layer, and the four sides of the refractory brick body are respectively provided with protrusions and depressions, and the protrusions and depressions of adjacent refractory brick bodies can fit together.
[0006] Optionally, the sol layer is a silica sol layer, and the molecular formula of the effective component in the silica sol layer is mSiO2nH2O.
[0007] Optionally, the protrusion includes a first protrusion and a second protrusion, and the first protrusion and the second protrusion are respectively located on two adjacent sides of the refractory brick body.
[0008] Optionally, both the first protrusion and the second protrusion have a semi-cylindrical protrusion structure.
[0009] Optionally, the recess includes a first recess and a second recess, and the first recess and the second recess are located on two adjacent sides of the refractory brick body, respectively.
[0010] Optionally, both the first and second recesses have a semi-cylindrical recess structure.
[0011] Optionally, a first roughening layer and a second roughening layer are respectively provided in the first recess and the second recess.
[0012] The advantages of this utility model include:
[0013] 1. By impregnating the surface of an existing refractory brick structure with a sol layer, the colloidal particles are fine and have a large specific surface area. The particles themselves are colorless and transparent, so they do not affect the original color of the covered object. On the other hand, the sol layer has low viscosity and can penetrate wherever water can penetrate. Therefore, it has excellent dispersibility and permeability when mixed with other substances. Furthermore, when the water in the silica sol in the sol layer evaporates, the colloidal particles firmly adhere to the surface of the object, and silicon-oxygen bonds are formed between the particles, which have strong adhesion and high temperature resistance.
[0014] 2. By setting protrusions and recesses on the refractory brick body, adjacent refractory bricks can be connected through the protrusions and recesses, thereby improving the overall connection tightness. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0021] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a sol-impregnated composite refractory brick includes a refractory brick body 1, wherein the outer peripheral surface of the refractory brick body 1 is impregnated with a sol layer, and the four sides of the refractory brick body 1 are respectively provided with protrusions and recesses, and the protrusions and recesses of adjacent refractory brick bodies 1 can fit together.
[0023] The purpose of this design is to impregnate the surface of the existing refractory brick structure with a sol layer. On the one hand, the colloidal particles are fine and have a large specific surface area. The particles themselves are colorless and transparent, so they do not affect the original color of the covered object. On the other hand, the sol layer has low viscosity and can penetrate wherever water can penetrate. Therefore, it has excellent dispersibility and permeability when mixed with other substances. Furthermore, when the water in the silica sol in the sol layer evaporates, the colloidal particles firmly adhere to the surface of the object, and silicon-oxygen bonds are formed between the particles, which have strong adhesion and high temperature resistance.
[0024] In this embodiment, the sol layer is a silica sol layer, and the molecular formula of the effective component in the silica sol layer is mSiO2nH2O.
[0025] It should be noted that the silica sol composition is as follows: pH value (25℃) 9-11, density (25℃) 1.2 g / cm³, SiO2 ≥ 30%, and viscosity (25℃) mPa.s ≤ 7.
[0026] At the same time, such as Figure 4 As shown, the method of adding it to the surface of refractory bricks is to soak freshly fired aluminosilicate refractory bricks in silica sol for 2-4 hours when the surface temperature of the bricks is about 50°C, and then take them out and let them air dry naturally.
[0027] The silica sol added in the above manner has the following properties: increased bulk density by 0.1-0.12 g / cm³, decreased apparent porosity by 2%-3%, increased hot strength at 1450℃*1h by 20%-30%, and also has a certain antioxidant effect on aluminosilicate bricks.
[0028] Furthermore, this method of impregnating silica sol has the same reinforcing effect on high-alumina bricks, clay bricks, lightweight mullite bricks, aluminosilicate bricks, composite mullite bricks, and aluminosilicate precast components.
[0029] In this embodiment, specific structures of the protrusions and recesses are also provided. The protrusions include a first protrusion 2 and a second protrusion 3, and the first protrusion 2 and the second protrusion 3 are respectively located on two adjacent sides of the refractory brick body 1. Both the first protrusion 2 and the second protrusion 3 have a semi-cylindrical protrusion structure. The recesses include a first recess 4 and a second recess 5, and the first recess 4 and the second recess 5 are respectively located on two adjacent sides of the refractory brick body 1. Both the first recess 4 and the second recess 5 have a semi-cylindrical recess structure.
[0030] The purpose of this design is to improve the overall tightness of the connection by setting protrusions and recesses on the refractory brick body so that adjacent refractory bricks can be connected through the protrusions and recesses.
[0031] In this embodiment, a first rough layer 6 and a second rough layer 7 are respectively provided in the first recess 4 and the second recess 5.
[0032] The purpose of this design is to create a rough layer in the recessed area. This rough layer is mainly achieved by setting longitudinal and transverse scratches in the mold, so that the produced refractory bricks have rough longitudinal and transverse scratches in the recessed area, which facilitates the impregnation of the sol layer.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
