Application Of Refractories
We will introduce you to the application of refractory materials in various industries, and we can design and construct kilns according to your needs.
Application Of Refractory Materials
Refractory materials are fundamental to all high-temperature industrial processes and are available in various applications. Downstream applications of refractory materials mainly include the steel industry, cement industry, non-ferrous metal smelting industry, glass industry, and ceramic industry, including blast furnaces, converters, electric furnaces, ladle furnaces, LF furnaces, RH vacuum refining equipment, cement kilns, and glass kilns. Selecting appropriate refractory materials for high-temperature equipment, such as furnaces used in the smelting of non-ferrous metals, is of utmost importance.
Steel Industry
In the steel industry, which accounts for 70% of the downstream demand for refractory materials, blast furnaces, converters, electric furnaces, ladle furnaces, LF furnaces, RH furnaces, and continuous casting systems all use refractory materials.
Cement Industry
In the clinker calcination process, cement enterprises rely heavily on refractory bricks as essential production materials, which find widespread usage in high-temperature technical fields and various industrial sectors. Alkali and silicon-aluminum refractory bricks are commonly employed in cement enterprises.
Non-ferrous Metal Smelting
The primary equipment utilized in non-ferrous metal smelting is the non-ferrous metal smelting furnace. The selection of refractory materials is a vital factor that affects the life and output of non-ferrous metal smelting furnaces.
Glass Industry
The glass industry requires various high-quality refractory materials to ensure the technological progress of kilns, which are core equipment in glass production. These materials are required to withstand higher temperatures, sharper temperature changes, stronger chemical erosion, and more severe stress failure.
Ceramic Industry
Refractory materials are essential for the ceramics industry, providing high-temperature resistance to the kilns used in the firing and sintering processes, ensuring efficient and continuous production of high-quality ceramics.
