Precautions when using zircon corundum brick
The contact between the zirconium corundum brick phase and the high-temperature glass liquid will generate a high viscosity layer.
This is the key to the good corrosion resistance of the zirconium corundum brick.
This requires that the glass phase softening temperature is higher. Less ingredients. Zirconium corundum bricks, because of the use of graphite lining bricks and graphite electrodes when melting in electric furnaces, will generate a reducing atmosphere. Component components increase. According to the basic principle of phase rate, this will lower the liquidus limit temperature. When such a brick is used at high temperature, the viscosity of the glass phase is greatly reduced, a protective layer with high viscosity cannot be formed, and the viscosity of the glass phase is low, it is easy to diffuse to the high temperature glass liquid, so the crystal phase in the brick loses the binding agent and Will fall into the glass liquid, which causes streaks and stones in the glass liquid.

1.The fused zirconium corundum brick manufactured in a reducing atmosphere has poor corrosion resistance
The fused zirconium alumina brick produced by the hafnium oxidation method does not use graphite lining bricks. Although the electrodes also use graphite, they are melted by the long arc method, so that c is combined with oxygen in the air in the arc to generate co2 without entering the melt. The carbon content of bricks produced by this method is less than 0.005%, so the corrosion resistance is greatly increased.
At the same time, zirconium corundum bricks produced by the reduction method also generate bubbles in the glass. This is because the low-value oxides and other substances such as c in the glass phase of the brick have strong reducing properties, and they will take oxygen dissolved in the glass liquid when they contact the glass liquid. This changes the composition of the gas soluble in the glass into a gas that is not easily soluble in the liquid glass and becomes bubbles. For example, so3 dissolved in glass liquid is reduced to so2. So2 has a low solubility in the glass liquid, and thus becomes a bubble. This reduces the quality of the glass liquid.
2, irregular changes in thermal expansion
Electro-fused zirconium alumina brick is characterized by stable and dense structure and strong resistance to liquid glass erosion. There is an abnormal expansion between 900 and 1200 ° C, which is caused by the transformation of the zro2 monoclinic crystal form to the zro2 cubic crystal form, which can be used as a reference for the glass tank kiln baking and operation.
Because of the influence of other components in azs brick, the crystal transition temperature fluctuates within ± 50 ℃. Therefore, during use, the temperature change between 950 and 1150 ° C during heating and cooling should not be too large, and generally does not exceed 15 ° C / h.
The abnormal expansion and contraction of hafnium zircon can be buffered by the glass phase without causing cracks. In the late 1970s, 0.15% to 0.20% of b2o3 was introduced into the composition, so that the glass phase contained in the azs brick body not only has better thermal shock resistance, but also buffers abnormal expansion. However, large temperature changes or repeated fluctuations within this temperature range can also cause cracks. Therefore, when heating the kiln, the temperature should be stable in the range of 950 to 1150 ° C. When the temperature is often changed (such as the feeding port, etc.), the outside should be protected with other bricks.
