In the glass production industry, the components of glass melting furnaces often face various problems when in contact with molten glass. These issues can range from corrosion and erosion to structural damage, which significantly affect the service life of the furnace and the quality of the glass products. Against this backdrop, Fused AZS TY - AZS33 emerges as a promising solution.
Fused AZS TY - AZS33 is made from pure alumina powder and zircon sand. Zircon sand typically contains about 66% zirconia (ZrO₂) and 34% silicon dioxide (SiO₂). The combination of Al₂O₃, ZrO₂, and SiO₂ in the form of Al₂O₃－ZrO₂－SiO₂ system has profound significance. According to the phase equilibrium theory, this ternary system forms a unique set of phases at high temperatures. The alumina provides high - temperature strength and chemical stability, zirconia enhances the resistance to corrosion and thermal shock, and silica helps in the formation of a stable glassy phase that binds the other components together.
The formation of the dense microstructure of Fused AZS TY - AZS33 is a complex process. During the melting process, the raw materials are heated to a very high temperature (around 2000 - 2200°C). At this temperature, the components react with each other and form a homogeneous melt. As the melt cools down, the zirconia precipitates out in the form of fine crystals, which are uniformly distributed in the alumina matrix. This fine - grained and uniform distribution of zirconia crystals in the alumina matrix results in a dense microstructure. In contrast, ordinary materials often have a more porous and less uniform structure. When exposed to molten glass, the dense microstructure of Fused AZS TY - AZS33 provides superior resistance. Tests have shown that compared with ordinary materials, the corrosion rate of Fused AZS TY - AZS33 in molten glass is reduced by about 30 - 40%.
Fused AZS TY - AZS33 has a wide range of applications in different parts of glass melting furnaces. In the throat area, where the flow of molten glass is fast and the temperature is high, Fused AZS TY - AZS33 can resist the strong scouring and corrosion of the molten glass, ensuring the smooth flow of the glass liquid. In the sidewall area, it can prevent the penetration of the molten glass into the furnace lining, thus extending the service life of the furnace. In the crown area, its high - temperature stability can withstand the long - term high - temperature environment, maintaining the structural integrity of the furnace.
Several glass production enterprises have adopted Fused AZS TY - AZS33 in their melting furnaces. For example, a large - scale glass manufacturer replaced the original lining materials with Fused AZS TY - AZS33. After one year of operation, they found that the production efficiency increased by about 15% due to reduced downtime for furnace maintenance. At the same time, the quality of the glass products improved significantly, with the defect rate decreasing from 3% to less than 1%.
Fused AZS TY - AZS33 represents a perfect combination of material composition and performance. Its unique chemical composition and the resulting dense microstructure endow it with excellent resistance to corrosion, erosion, and thermal shock in the harsh environment of glass melting furnaces. Based on the scientific material formula and reliable performance, we sincerely invite you to choose Fused AZS TY - AZS33 for your glass production needs. Make a smart choice and experience the difference it can bring to your production process.
