Formula Design Of Refractory Castables

The formulation of refractory castables includes two parts: application design parameters and material design parameters.
The refractory castable used under the set target conditions needs to consider factors such as raw material combination, manufacturing technology, material assembly (construction), and application technology.
The goal of formula design is to find a balance between material properties and application conditions.
Usually, the type and quality of refractory materials for the lining of a kiln are determined based on the actual operating conditions of the kiln (operating temperature, furnace atmosphere, and contact state of dust, steam, liquid, and/or slag) and the characteristics of the slag. If refractory castables are selected as the target lining, materials suitable for the usage conditions, appropriate bonding systems, and additives that can further improve and enhance performance should be used to produce refractory castables with better performance.
