Aiming at optimizing properties of alumina-spinel refractory castables, coarse corundum particles were replaced partially with the particles of a novel porous multi-component CMA (CaO-MgO-Al2O3) aggregate in the same size. Properties including the bulk density, apparent porosity, strength, slag corrosion resistance, thermal shock resistance and thermal fatigue resistance of alumina-spinel refractory castables containing CMA aggregates were evaluated contrastively. The results demonstrated that the incorporation of CMA aggregates can significantly improve thermal shock resistance and thermal fatigue resistance of castables, although companying with slight decrease in the bulk density and strength. Moreover, slag penetration resistance of castables can also be enhanced by CMA aggregates with appropriate particle size. The influence of CMA aggregates on properties of alumina-spinel refractory castables depended strongly on their particle size.

The characterization of some clay as refractory materials for furnace lining has become relevant to find solutions to the cost involved in the purchase and importation of these refractory materials. This work investigated the refractory properties of clay samples for their suitability for use in the industries. Clay samples were collected from Gakem and Abouchiche areas and analysed for physical and chemical properties to determine the suitability of the clays as refractory materials. The results showed cold crushing strength (21.46MN/m2), thermal shock resistance (27 cycles), bulk density (3.52g/cm3), linear shrinkage(3.80%), apparent porosity (28.84%) and permeability (80%) for Gakem; and cold cold crushing strength (18.40MN/m2), thermal shock resistance (25 cycles), bulk density(2.81g/cm3), linear shrinkage (3.70%), apparent porosity (25.86%) and permeability (77%) for Abouchiche respectively. The chemical compositions of these clay samples were also investigated. The results showed that the samples fall under Aluminosilicate type of clay because of their high values of Aluminium Oxide and Silicon Oxide. Tests showed that clay from these areas can be used to produce refractory materials that can withstand a furnace temperature of about 1600°C. http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/njt.v36i3.26

AbstractInduction heating of disk shaped specimens was used to compare and contrast the thermal fatigue behavior of MoSi2 and MoSi2-based composites. Specimens were subjected to 5 s heating and cooling cycles between temperature limits of 700°C and 1200°C. The monolithic material and a MoSi2- 10 vol% TiC composite exhibited poor thermal shock resistance and could not be thermally cycled according to this temperature-time profile. A 30 vol% TiC composite exhibited much better thermal shock and thermal fatigue resistance as compared to the monolithic material, but exhibited undesirable oxidation. MoSi2-10 and 30 vol% SiC particulate composites exhibited excellent thermal shock and thermal fatigue resistance compared to that of the monolithic material. A MoSi2-10 vol% SiC whisker composite did not show improved thermal fatigue resistance due to the initial processing defects present in the material. The monolithic material and the 10 vol% TiC composite were also subjected to 30 s heating and cooling cycles between temperature limits of 700°C and 1200°C. Both of these materials exhibited better thermal fatigue resistance at this temperature-time profile, but the 10 vol% TiC composite also exhibited undesirable oxidation. The fatigue results are discussed with reference to the initial microstructure of the specimens and the stress-strain history of the specimens which was obtained by a thermoelastic finite element analysis.

The thermal fatigue behavior of alumina-magnesia based and alumina-chromia based purging plug materials are comparatively studied. By comparing thermal shock parameters, the changes of elastic modulus and hot modulus of rupture after thermal shock cycles, we come to a conclusion that microcracks emerge in the alumina-magnesia based material, which hinder the crack growth during thermal shock cycles. The fine-grained and network structure of alumina-magnesia based material are also helpful to improve thermal shock resistance. However, cracks are difficult to form in the alumina-chromia based material but it tends to fracture damage quickly once the cracks nucleation due to coarse-grained structure of alumina-chromia based material.

Mechanical fatigue due to repeated thermal shock cycling is of great importance for most materials intended for refractory applications. This work explores thermal shock resistance and cyclic thermal shock effects of cordierite ceramic made from clay-containing mixtures. Different means of detection of change in modulus of elasticity have been employed including impulse excitation and dynamic-mechanic tests (DMA). Results have shown that the elastic modulus of cordierite ceramic gradually decreases over thermal shock cycles, the sharpest change being observed after the first cycle. Unlike synthetic cordierite ceramic material, clay-substituted cordierite composites show "self-healing" effect, which can be explained by the gradual filling of cracks with glassy phase that leads to the strengthening of the whole structure of material. This effect is directly dependent upon the composition of the sample and the material with lesser amount of glassy phase can be characterized with the largest inertia of this effect.
