MgO fumes as a potential binder for in situ spinel containing refractory castables
چکیده انگلیسی
MgO is pointed out as an alternative binder for refractory materials, mainly for systems where the presence of CaO might not be desired. Selecting the most suitable magnesia source is an important step as its purity and reactivity should influence the hydration reaction, leading to binding effect or cracks. This work investigated the design of vibratable high-alumina compositions bonded with MgO fumes [which is a very fine powdered oxide (d < 3 µm) resulting from the production process of electrofused magnesia] and/or dead-burnt magnesia (d < 212 µm). Acetic and formic acids were added to the castables during their processing steps in order to adjust the density of active sites for Mg(OH)2 formation and control the crystal growth of this phase. The green mechanical strength and thermomechanical performance (cold and hot mechanical strength, thermal shock, refractoriness under load, corrosion, etc.) of designed MgO-bonded compositions were analyzed. Improved green mechanical strength and crack-free samples were obtained when adding up to 6 wt% of MgO fumes to the refractories and processing them with aqueous solutions with 3 wt% of formic acid. The compositions with 6 wt% of magnesia fumes resulted in samples with flexural strength in the range of 12.0 MPa after curing at 50 °C/24 h and similar green mechanical strength (12.9 MPa) as the ones bonded with 4.0 wt% of calcium aluminate cement after drying at 110 °C for 24 h, which highlights the great potential of this MgO source. Despite the enhanced green mechanical strength, alumina-based castables containing 6 wt% of MgO (fumes, dead-burnt or their blend) showed low mechanical strength at intermediate temperatures and high linear expansion, as a consequence of the in situ spinel phase formation above 1200 °C. Thus, better densification, improved HMOR, thermal shock resistance and corrosion behavior were obtained for the castables prepared with less MgO fume contents.
