What Details Should be Paid Attention to When Using Refractory Mortar?
Refractory mortar is a bonding connection material for building refractory bricks. Proper selection of refractory mortar is very important for the integrity and tightness of the refractory brick combined with the high temperature in the later period and the lining of the kiln. In the construction process of refractory materials, what details should be paid attention to when using refractory mortar can not be ignored. Rongsheng’s high-quality refractory bricks and supporting refractory mortar of the same material are used.
When using refractory mortar, it needs to be paid attention: The performance of the refractory mortars used for building refractory bricks should be compatible with the physical and chemical properties of the refractory bricks used. The types and indicators of refractory mortars are determined by the material and temperature of the refractory bricks used in industrial kilns.
When the refractory mortars are used in combination with refractory bricks, the fineness of the refractory mortar must be kept above 160 mesh, otherwise, it will dry too quickly and the adhesion will not be strong. Before using refractory mortar, it is necessary to determine the viscosity of the refractory mortars and the amount of liquid added. (Water binding, phosphoric acid-binding, resin binding). The bonding time of refractory mortar must meet the construction requirements of refractory bricks. The bonding time of refractory mortar depends on the material, size and difficulty of construction of refractory bricks. Generally speaking, the bonding time is 1-1.5min. It will not dry too fast or too slow. Too slow to condense. Too fast refractory bricks and refractory bricks are not bonded together.
When the refractory mortars are prepared, choosing the water as the liquid, clean industrial water is used, and the PH value is between 6-7. Do not use industrial water containing harmful substances and oil stains. It is particularly worth reminding that when preparing refractory mortar in coastal areas, the water used must be strictly tested, and the concentration of chloride ions cannot be greater than 300mg/L. Springwater can not be used when constructing near a mountain. The PH value of spring water is 11, so it cannot be used.
Phosphoric acid is added to the refractory mortar during its preparation, and it must be carried out in strict accordance with the instructions of the refractory mortars manufacturer. The amount of phosphoric acid added should not be too much or too little, too thin, or too thick are not conducive to the bonding strength of refractory mortar.
There are many varieties of refractory mortars, and various varieties and brands can not be mixed. The best prepared refractory mortar on the day is best used on the same day, not used the next day. The rational use of refractory mortar is based on the material of the refractory brick and the temperature of the construction is closely combined.
