Classification of Lightweight Insulating Castable Refractory
Lightweight insulating refractory castables can be divided into three categories according to use temperature:
- Low temperature insulating lightweight refractory castable, operating temperature is 600℃(1112℉) – 900℃(1652℉);
- Medium temperature insulating lightweight refractory castable, operating temperature is 900℃(1652℉) – 1200℃(2192℉);
- High temperature insulating lightweight refractory castable, operating temperature is >1200℃(2192℉).
The castable refractory cement has a wide range of applications. In the lining of kilns in the metallurgical, mechanical, petrochemical and power industries, we generally use insulation castable as the thermal insulation layer. But now, with the improvement of the material of lightweight refractory castables and the advancement of preparation technology, there are many occasions where they are directly used as the working lining of atmosphere furnaces.
Generally, we mainly use low and medium temperature linsulating castable material as thermal insulation linings, which are not in direct contact with flames. However, high-temperature lightweight castables can be directly used as working linings in contact with melt or solid media in the furnace. In particular, we can use it as a working lining for various heating furnaces and heat treatment furnaces. This can significantly save energy consumption.
Advantage of Lightweight Insulating Castable Refractory
Excellent Features
The Kerui high temp castable refractory has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, low density, good thermal insulation, low water absorption, strong peeling resistance and resistance to chemical corrosion of acidic and alkaline gases. Therefore, its use can make the temperature in the furnace uniform and reduce the structural weight of the furnace or equipment. In addition, its small volume density can reduce kiln heat consumption.
Good Workability
It has good workability, strong adhesion, long initial setting time and construction operability time. In addition, its strength increases quickly, its impermeability is strong and it does not require acidification treatment. Therefore, it is easy to ensure that the mortar joints of the masonry are dense and full. This also significantly improves the air tightness, integrity and anti-corrosion capabilities of the inner walls of equipment such as flues.
Application of Insulating Castable Refractory
On the one hand, you can also use it directly on lined insulation such as high-temperature industrial kiln insulation. For example, insulation or single-layer lining of rotary kilns, industrial kilns, tall chimneys, high-temperature flues and air ducts. In addition, you can also use it in acid-resistant tanks, storage tanks and other acid-resistant projects in petroleum, chemical, non-ferrous metallurgy and other industries.
On the other hand, it is an unshaped refractory material suitable for casting molding. You can contact us to tell us your specific needs and desired refractory precast shapes.
