Iron

Refractory materials for iron making

The iron making process (primarily carried out in blast furnaces and their ancillary facilities) faces harsh conditions such as high temperatures (above 1500°C), corrosion from molten iron/slag, corrosion from alkali metal vapors, and mechanical wear. Furthermore, operating conditions vary significantly across different parts of the process. The refractory system used in iron making differs significantly from that used in steel making. Our company's products have found widespread practical application in both project construction and consumable refractories. The following are key typical application scenarios:

Blast furnace refractories (by region)
Furnace Throat & Top Shaft

High alumina bricks ((Al₂O₃ >65%), corundum bricks ((Al₂O₃ >90%), mullite bricks and steel fiber reinforced refractory castables/spray coatings.

(Middle/Lower Shaft)

High alumina bricks ((Al₂O₃ >75%), mullite bricks/corundum mullite bricks, sillimanite bricks/andalusite bricks and special refractory castables/spray coatings.

(Belly & Bosh)‌ 
Corundum bricks/brown corundum bricks and high performance refractory castables/spray coatings.
