Andalusite bricks are made of andalusite, sillimanite sand, activated alumina powder and fine high-alumina powder. First, 40% of andalusite with a particle size of 0.1-1mm and 20% of sillimanite with a particle size of 0.1-1mm are taken. The 120-mesh activated alumina pink andalusite refractory bricks will be converted into mullite after heating. After conversion, they have higher refractory performance. The refractoriness can reach above 1800℃. There are very few impurities in andalusite bricks, and the high-temperature strength decreases very little. It also has the characteristics of resistance to rapid cooling and heating, high mechanical strength, strong resistance to thermal shock, strong resistance to slag, high load conversion point, and extremely high chemical stability (even insoluble in hydrofluoric acid) and extremely strong resistance to chemical corrosion.
Andalusite has high temperature resistance and stability. When heated to 1350℃ under normal pressure, andalusite begins to transform into needle-shaped mullite. Mullite crystal is the only stable form of aluminosilicate under high temperature.
Andalusite bricks use corundum, andalusite and other materials as main raw materials and strictly control the particle size of raw materials. New technology is applied, and multi-level batching, matrix homogenization, determination of optimal calcination temperature and other process measures are adopted. Andalusite bricks with excellent performance can fully meet the use of different parts and different working environments of blast furnaces and hot blast stoves.
The characteristic of andalusite bricks is that the thermal expansion rate is generally low during the conversion process. Andalusite bricks are divided into two types, one is fired andalusite bricks, and the other is unfired andalusite bricks.
