Process requirements and composition of breathable bricks

In the process of molten steel smelting, the bottom of the converter ladle will be smelted with breathable bricks to blow inert gas, mainly for purging the gas and solid impurities in the molten steel, so as to achieve the purpose of uniform molten steel composition and temperature; in short, breathable bricks are installed in the converter ladle A very important air supply element at the bottom.

During the smelting process of steelmaking plants, there are three main reasons for the damage of breathable bricks. They are cracks and spalling caused by thermal shock caused by the temperature difference between molten steel and ladle, erosion and penetration of molten slag in molten steel, and erosion caused by molten steel agitating and flowing. And erosion. Therefore, the breathable brick is required to have high heat resistance, thermal shock stability, abrasion resistance, erosion resistance, and corrosion resistance. In addition, it must be safe to use and good in air permeability.

The slit-type ventilating brick has a large adjustable range of air supply, which can meet the requirements of gas flow in different periods of smelting, and the reverse impact is small when blowing, so the slit-type ventilating brick is more and more popular. Breathable bricks are made of corundum as the main raw material by combining seat bricks, breathable brick cores and steel sleeves. Install a stainless steel sleeve with an argon blowing tube on the prepared ventilating brick core, and then put it into the hole of the seat brick, and fill the gap between the steel sleeve assembly and the seat brick with refractory mud to form a complete ventilating brick .
