Case Sharing of the Practical Application of Magnesium Bricks in the Regenerator of Glass Furnaces

In the high - temperature kiln industry, manufacturers often face a series of challenges. High temperatures can cause rapid wear and tear of kiln linings, and the presence of alkaline slag can lead to corrosion, which in turn increases the frequency of kiln breakdowns and reduces production efficiency. These issues not only increase production costs but also affect the quality and output of products. In response to these pain points, magnesium bricks have emerged as an effective solution.

Performance of Magnesium Bricks

Magnesium bricks possess excellent mechanical strength. Under normal circumstances, the compressive strength of magnesium bricks can reach up to 50 MPa. This high - strength characteristic enables them to withstand the high - temperature and high - pressure environment inside the glass furnace regenerator without being easily damaged. Scientifically, the crystal structure of magnesium bricks provides a stable framework, which is the key to their high strength.

Another remarkable property is their resistance to alkaline slag corrosion. In a glass furnace environment, alkaline slag is a major factor causing lining damage. Magnesium bricks have a low porosity, usually less than 18%. This low porosity reduces the penetration path of alkaline slag, effectively preventing corrosion. Data shows that in a long - term alkaline slag environment, the corrosion rate of magnesium bricks is only about 0.5 mm per year, far lower than that of ordinary refractory materials.

Practical Application Cases

Let's take a glass manufacturing enterprise as an example. Before using magnesium bricks in the glass furnace regenerator, the enterprise faced frequent kiln breakdowns. The average production interruption time was about 10 days per year, and the annual production loss reached about 200,000 US dollars. After replacing the lining with magnesium bricks, the situation improved significantly.

Customer Feedback
