Refractory bricks (also known as fire bricks) are shaped refractory materials made from refractory raw materials through batching, forming and high-temperature firing. They maintain stable physical and chemical properties at temperatures above 1580℃ and serve as the core lining material for industrial kilns and thermal equipment.
I. Core Properties
- Refractoriness: ≥1580℃, no softening or melting at high temperatures.
- High-temperature strength: Withstands impact and pressure from furnace charge and molten slag.
- Thermal shock resistance: Resists rapid heating and cooling, no cracking under drastic temperature changes.
- Corrosion resistance: Resists corrosion by acidic/alkaline slags, molten metals and gases.
- Volume stability: Small volume change at high temperatures, no shrinkage or expansion.
II. Main Classification (By Material)
Silica-alumina Series Neutral/Special Refractory Bricks Basic Refractory Bricks Fireclay Bricks
Composition: Al₂O₃ 30%–48%, SiO₂ 45%–65%.
Features: Low cost, good thermal shock resistance, acid and alkali resistance.
Applications: Boilers, hot blast
stoves,ceramic kilns, flues.
Corundum Bricks
Composition: Al₂O₃ ≥90%.
Features: High temperature resistance,
wear resistance, slag resistance,metal corrosion resistance.
Applications: Blast furnaces, converters,
glass melting tanks, high-temperature kilns.
Magnesite Bricks
Composition: MgO ≥80%.
Features: Excellent resistance to alkaline slags, high temperature
resistance (2000℃+).
Applications: Converters, electric furnaces, burning zones of cement kilns.
High-Alumina Bricks
Composition: Al₂O₃ ≥48%.
Features: High refractoriness
(1750–1790℃), high strength.
Applications: Blast furnaces, electric furnaces, cement kilns, glass furnaces.
Carbon Bricks/Graphite Bricks
Composition: Carbon/Graphite.
Features: High temperature resistance, good thermal conductivity,
thermal shock resistance,
resistance to molten iron penetration.
Applications: Blast furnace hearths, aluminum reduction cells.
Silica Bricks
Composition: SiO₂ ≥93%.
Features: Strong acid resistance,
stable volume at high temperatures.
Applications: Coke ovens,
regenerators of glass furnaces.
III. Industrial Application Fields
- Iron & Steel: Blast furnaces, converters, electric furnaces, coke ovens, hot blast stoves.
- Building Materials: Cement rotary kilns, glass melting furnaces, ceramic kilns.
- Chemical Industry: Gas generators, cracking furnaces, incinerators.
- Non-ferrous Metals: Aluminum reduction cells, copper/lead/zinc smelting furnaces.
IV. Selection Key Points
- Temperature: Fireclay bricks for <1500℃; High-alumina bricks for 1500–1700℃; Corundum/magnesite bricks for >1700℃.
- Corrosion: Silica bricks for acidic environments; Magnesite bricks for alkaline environments; High-alumina/corundum bricks for neutral environments.
- Thermal Shock: Fireclay bricks and high-alumina bricks for large temperature fluctuations and frequent start-stop operations.
