Physical Nature of Refractory Material

Structural nature
The macrostructure of silica brick is a nonhomogeneous body composed of solid and gaseous pores. Stomata is an important factor affecting the performance of products at room temperature and high temperature, especially in high temperature conditions, making the product of the external erosion resistance greatly reduced. The reason of stomatal formation is: leaving space after material moisture removed, raw material calcination is not sufficient, and some decomposition of the salt is completely decomposed, should be burning ingredients for complete burning, composition is not uniform, shrinkage is not uniform when high temperature firing  and so on.





But in some light insulation products production, people also introduced a number of  more distribution uniform stomata. The presence of stomata directly affects the porosity, water absorption, bulk density, air permeability of refractory material and other indicators.

1. Porosity

The pores in the refractory material can be divided into: closed pore, closed in the product does not communicate with the outside. Open pore, one end closed, the other end connected with the outside, can be filled with fluid. Through pore, through the two sides of the product, can pass through the fluid.
 
2. Water absorption
The water absorption is the ratio of the mass of water absorbed by the entire opening of the product to the mass of the dried sample.
