红柱石基堇青石窑具材料

通常情况下,堇青石的合成采用粘土、滑石和氧化铝等原料;但是,从ＭｇＯＡｌ２Ｏ３ＳｉＯ２三元相图可以看出,在高温下向堇青石转化的过程中要经过一个温度很低的共熔点,降低了材料的耐火度。为了获得较高的耐火性能,材料的组成应向堇青石－假蓝宝石－莫来石体系中富氧化铝的一端偏移。由红柱石代替氧化铝和部分粘土,根据堇青石的化学组成配制了三种混合料,配方１由粘土、滑石和氧化铝组成;配方２由红柱石全部代替氧化铝;配方３增加了红柱石的量,使氧化铝富余。试样经１４００℃烧成,升温速度为２００℃·ｈ－１,并分别在１…     

Effect of Andalusite Addition on Properties of Chrome-corundum Bricks

In order to improve the thermal shock resistance of chrome-corundum bricks, different amounts of andalusite were added to the formulation of chrome-corundum bricks to replace the equivalent white fused corundum with the same particle size. After mixing, shaping, drying and firing, the density, the cold strength, the cold wear resistance, the hot modulus of rupture and the thermal shock resistance were tested. XRD, SEM and elemental surface scanning were used to characterize the specimens. The results show that:(1) the volume expansion of andalusite mullitization reduces the apparent porosity of chrome-corundum bricks;(2) the density and the hardness of mullite are lower than those of corundum so the decrease of the corundum content in brick leads to the decrease of the bulk density, the strength and the cold wear resistance;(3) the cross-distributed columnar mullite in the matrix can effectively improve the hot modulus of rupture and the thermal shock resistance of the specimens;(4) considering comprehensively, the andalusite addition shall not exceed 18%.

以电熔白刚玉、电熔莫来石、氧化铝微粉、二氧化硅微粉和硅溶胶为主要原料,制备了硅溶胶、二氧化硅微粉结合刚玉浇注料以及硅溶胶结合刚玉-莫来石浇注料,研究了不同温度处理后浇注料的常温性能、冷态和热态抗折强度以及弹性模量等性能,并进行了差热、X射线衍射和显微结构分析。研究结果表明:1)与二氧化硅微粉相比,硅溶胶能够显著提高浇注料800℃以下的抗折强度;硅溶胶结合和二氧化硅微粉结合的机制以及随温度变化的规律基本一致。2)高温下刚玉骨料中β-Al2O3分解产生的Na2O大部分进入液相,使液相中Na2O含量增加,不利于浇注料中原位生成莫来石,并降低材料的高温强度。3)莫来石加入到硅溶胶结合刚玉浇注料中,能显著降低浇注料的弹性模量,借助于高温下液相的传质作用,莫来石彼此连接形成网络,从而增加了浇注料的强度。     

Densification behavior of mullite-Al2TiO5 composites by reaction sintering of natural andalusite and TiO2

In this work, mullite-Al₂TiO₅ composites were fabricated by natural andalusite with TiO₂ as an additive. The densification characteristic, phase composition and mullitization process of andalusite with TiO₂ addition was investigated by the Archimedes’ principle, dilatometry, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDS) techniques. The results showed that the incorporation of TiO₂ not only enhanced the thermal stability of in-situ Al₂TiO₅ in the silica liquid yielded from the mullitization of andalusite, but also accelerated andalusite decomposition and retarded mullite formation, which facilitated the sintering and densification of mullite-Al₂TiO₅ composites.     

Mullitization of Andalusite and Influence of Aggregates on Properties of Aluminosilicate Refractories Based on Andalusite Matrix

The mullitization of andalusite from Xinjiang,China and influence of aggregates on properties of aluminosilicate refractories were studied by XRD,SEM,EDS,DSC.It was found that mullitization was obvious at 1 400 ℃,but considerable at 1 500 ℃.The refractories with corundum aggregates had the highest RUL and the lowest creep rate,but refractories with bauxite aggregates had the lowest RUL and the highest creep rate.     

Improvement of the mechanical properties of SiC reticulated porous ceramics with optimized three-layered struts for porous media combustion

Silicon carbide reticulated porous ceramics (SiC RPCs) with three-layered struts were fabricated by polymer replica method, followed by infiltrating alumina slurries containing silicon (slurry-Si) and andalusite (slurry-An), respectively. The effects of composition of infiltration slurries on the strut structure, mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance of SiC RPCs were investigated. The results showed that the SiC RPCs infiltrated with slurry-Si and slurry-An exhibited better mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance in comparison with those of alumina slurry infiltration, even obtained the considerable strength at 1300 °C. In slurry-Si, silicon was oxidized into SiO₂ in the temperature range from 1300 °C to 1400 °C and it reacted with Al₂O₃ into mullite phase at 1450 °C. Meantime, the addition of silicon in slurry-Si could reduce SiC oxidation of SiC RPCs during firing process in contrast with alumina slurry. With regard to slurry-An, andalusite started to transform into mullite phase at 1300 °C and the secondary mullitization occurred at 1450 °C. The enhanced mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance of SiC RPCs infiltrated alumina slurries containing silicon and andalusite were attributed to the optimized microstructure and the triangular zone (inner layer of strut) with mullite bonded corundum via reaction sintering. In addition, the generation of residual compressive stress together with better interlocked needle-like mullite led to the crack-deflection in SiC skeleton, thus improving the thermal shock resistance of obtained SiC RPCs.     

Andalusite: An amazing refractory raw material with excellent corrosion resistance to sodium vapours

The chemical attack of alumina refractories by sodium vapours is far from been completely understood. In order to contribute to a better knowledge of this attack, a laboratory test was developed to simulate the sodium gaseous corrosion of different raw materials and refractories.Corrosion of alumina raw materials by sodium vapours is due to a dissolution–precipitation process by a Na₂O rich liquid phase. The gaseous corrosion strongly depends on the microstructures and the assemblage of phases in alumina raw materials. Fire clay and andalusite raw materials exhibit very high corrosion by Na vapours. In spite of an initial high silica glass content, and as a result of trapping of the main part of the glass in the capillary network of the mullite composite crystal, mullitised andalusite leads to excellent corrosion resistance which is close to monocrystalline fused mullite.Consequently, The use of mullitised andalusite particles in the matrix of alumina refractories limits the liquid phase formation during corrosion by sodium gas. These experimental results are in agreement with thermodynamic calculations.     

Andalusite-Based High-Alumina Castables

Andalusite is easily converted to mullite and silica on heating. A better understanding of the mullitization mechanisms provides new information on use of this mineral in refractory castables. By using specific particle-size distributions for andalusite-based high-alumina castables, the primary mullite formation can be effectively enhanced by a secondary mullite reaction within castables matrices. The influence of ultrafine andalusite grains on thermomechanical properties of specimens is underlined by testing hot modulus of rupture in combination with mineralogical and microscopic analyses. The results demonstrate that andalusite has great promise as a component of high-alumina no-cement- or ultra-low-cement-containing castables.
