Lightweight Insulating Fire Brick is a kind of shaped refractory brick with porous structure, which has high apparent porosity and thermal insulation property. It is featured with low thermal conductivity, low bulk density, energy saving, lightweight and easy construction. Lightweight Insulating Fire Brick can service in the temperature about 900~2000℃. According to different raw materials structure, there are many types of insulating fire bricks, such as Lightweight Fireclay Brick, Lightweight Silica Bricks, Lightweight High Alumina Brick and so on. Now, I will introduce the manufacturing method, refractoriness and properties of Lightweight Insulating Fire Bricks.
Manufacturing Method of Lightweight Insulating Fire Brick
- Directly cut into block from natural porous lightweight protolith.
- Use natural or manmade porous lightweight materials as the raw materials to make bricks.
- Add combustible materials with burnability into pug, such as saw powder, carburizing rice husk, polystyrene light ball, or add into sublimating material, such as naphthaline, forming porous structure after burning up and volatilizing.
- Add foaming agent into pug, such as rosin soap, getting porous structure after firing.
- Add carbonate into pug, aluminite powder and hydrochloric acid, forming porous structure in virtue of liberation of gas from chemical reaction. Generally, adopt the second, third and fourth point.
