Alumina hollow ball castable

Alumina hollow ball castable is a new type of high-temperature insulation material. It is made of industrial alumina that is melted and blown in an electric furnace. The crystal form is a-Al2O3 microcrystals. With alumina hollow balls as the main body, it can be made into products of various shapes. The use temperature is as high as 1800℃. The products have high mechanical strength, which is several times that of general lightweight products, and the volume density is only half of that of corundum products. Alumina hollow ball castable has excellent high-temperature resistance and thermal insulation performance and can be directly used for the working lining of high-temperature kilns.

Advantages of alumina hollow ball castable

1. Reduce material density: Alumina hollow spheres are lightweight materials that can significantly reduce the density of the castable and the deadweight of the structure. This is very beneficial for engineering and structural design that needs to reduce the load.
2. Improve thermal conductivity: Due to the special structure of the hollow sphere, the alumina hollow sphere castable has good thermal conductivity. It can effectively conduct heat and improve the thermal conductivity of the material and is suitable for projects that require good thermal insulation.
3. Reduce energy consumption: As a lightweight material, alumina hollow sphere castable can reduce the heat capacity of the structure, thereby reducing the energy consumption of cooling and heating and improving energy utilization efficiency.
4. Strong fire resistance: Alumina hollow spheres have excellent high-temperature resistance, can withstand high-temperature environments, and provide good fire protection.
5. Reduce the use of building materials: Due to the lightweight characteristics of alumina hollow spheres, the use of its castables can reduce the amount of building materials required, thereby saving resources and reducing costs.

Applications of hollow alumina ball castables

Applications include industrial furnace wall lining or high-temperature industrial furnace back lining insulation, the integral casting of ladle baking cover, high-temperature pipeline wall lining, furnace door, fire hole, burner brick, and other general and special prefabricated parts, ва ғайра.

Instructions for the use of hollow alumina ball castables

(1) Mixing: The mixing method is basically the same as other thermal insulation castables, but the temperature of the mixing water should be controlled below room temperature 25°C.

(2) Construction: When pouring hollow alumina ball castables, it is advisable to use manual vibration. If a vibrating rod is used, it should be vibrated slightly, and the vibration time should not be too long.

(3) Maintenance: The spray method is used for maintenance, and the maintenance period is not less than 3 days.
