What is the difference between clay refractory brick and high alumina refractory brick

First, there is a difference in the material, one is clay, one is high aluminum.

Clay tiles, also known as sintered refractory brick, are man-made small blocks for construction. The fireclay refractories are made of clay (including shale, coal gangue and other powder) as the main raw material. They are processed, formed, dried and roasted. Solid and hollow respectively.

alumina brick is a kind of refractory, the main component of this refractory brick is AL2O3.
Alumina content of 48% or more of a neutral Refractory company refractory material. From bauxite or other alumina content of the higher raw materials formed and calcined. High thermal stability, refractoriness above 1770 ℃. Slag resistance is good for masonry electric furnace, glass melting furnace, cement rotary furnace lining.
High load and soft creep high alumina brick [1] is a high grade refractory made of superfine bauxite, fused corundum and fused mullite as the main raw material. The product has high-temperature creep, corrosion resistance, thermal shock stability, etc., suitable for large and medium-sized hot stove.

How To Improve The Glass Phase Of Fused Cast AZS Block

Changxing Refractory Material

The segregation of fused cast AZS is also caused by the glass phase. in theory, Al2O3, ZrO2 and SiO2 do not exist in the glass phase. When the alkali metal oxides(Na2O or K2O) are introduced, most SiO2 will enter the glass phase. Na2O constitutes the key components of refractory fiber felt glass phase with SiO2 and Al2O3. With the decreasing of Na2O, the glass phase decreases. But increasing the Na2O can reduce the viscosity of glass phase.

Iron, titanium, calcium, magnesium and other impurities should be avoided. The impurities can increase the glass phase but reduce the the viscosity of glass phase and pollute the glass melt.

SiO2 and Na2O are the main components tundish well block of the glass phase of fused cast AZS blocks. The content of SiO2 and Na2O is related to the amount of glass phase. Controlling the content of SiO2 and Na2O strictly is the key to ensure the performance of glass phase.

The main composition of Clay, High Alumina insulating bricks fused cast AZS block includes baddeleyite, corundum, a small amount of mullite, glass phase and pores. In order to reduce and eliminate the residual thermal stress, the glass phase is essential for fused cast AZS to act as a buffer for the thermal stress.

However, too much glass phase zirconium sizing nozzle will weaken the corrosion resistance. In the process of corrosion, the glass phase exudes first and be replaced with the high temperature glass melt, which will accelerate the corrosion. Accompanying the exudation of glass phase, bubbles give off, which will contaminate the glass melt.
