Refractory Industries leveraging data to Solve its biggest challenges Refractory Industries leveraging data to Solve its biggest challenges For millennia, the refractory industry has existed. Throughout this time, the industry has ensured global safety in high-energy intensive industries, primarily steel production. Almost no process can function in severe temperatures without the use of refractories. The majority of the industry still follows old techniques, and the fact tha

Image Credit : Google In conditions such as glass, fiberglass, or enamel furnaces, the resilience of refractory materials to heat stress and alkali corrosion is of great interest. In such conditions, refractory materials are commonly used to protect burners. Burner blocks, which are dedicated to this purpose, are subject to special limits that necessitate the use of high-performance materials. In contrast to silica and alumina, zirconia has a great resistance to alkali diffus

1. Refractory: refractoriness refers to a material's resistance to melting at high temperatures. The chemical composition of the refractory and the content of fusible impurities (such as FeO, NaO, and others) in the material determine its refractoriness. Because the high temperature load under the softening temperature of the refractory material will be reduced, the actual permissible use of refractory temperature is higher than the refractory, refractory does not represent t
