Shocking! The Superb Corrosion Resistance of Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M at 1350°C

In the glass production industry, high - temperature corrosion has long been a thorny problem. At high temperatures, the corrosive substances in the glass melt can severely damage the refractory materials used in the furnace, leading to shortened service life of the furnace, increased production costs, and even potential safety hazards. However, the emergence of Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M has brought new hope to this industry.

Product Introduction

Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M is a high - performance refractory material. Its main component is high - purity alumina. During the production process, it is melted in an electric furnace at 2000°C and then cast to form a dense crystal structure. This unique production process endows the brick with excellent physical and chemical properties.

One of the most remarkable features of this product is its superb corrosion resistance at 1350°C. In a series of laboratory experiments, it was found that after continuous exposure to the glass melt at 1350°C for 100 hours, the corrosion rate of Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M was only 0.5 mm/100h, while the corrosion rate of ordinary alumina bricks under the same conditions was as high as 2 mm/100h. These data clearly demonstrate its outstanding corrosion resistance at high temperatures.

Advantages in Glass Production

The excellent characteristics of Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M bring multiple advantages to glass production. Firstly, in terms of cost reduction. Due to its low corrosion rate, the replacement frequency of the refractory bricks in the furnace can be significantly reduced. For a medium - sized glass production enterprise, using ordinary alumina bricks may require replacement every 6 months, with an annual cost of about $100,000 for brick replacement and maintenance. In contrast, when using Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M, the replacement cycle can be extended to 2 years, and the annual cost for brick replacement and maintenance is reduced to about $30,000. This can save a large amount of production costs for enterprises.

Secondly, it can avoid production interruptions. In the past, the corrosion of ordinary refractory bricks often led to sudden furnace failures, which required shutdown for repair. Each shutdown for repair may cause a production interruption of about 3 - 5 days, resulting in a significant loss of production capacity. With Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M, the stability of the furnace operation is greatly improved, and the probability of sudden failures is minimized, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of glass production.

In addition, this product can also effectively reduce the pollution to the glass melt. Its dense crystal structure can minimize the dissolution of impurities into the glass melt. According to the test, when using ordinary alumina bricks, the impurity content in the glass melt may reach 0.1%, while when using Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M, the impurity content can be reduced to less than 0.01%, which greatly improves the quality of the glass products.

Real - World Customer Cases

Many glass production enterprises have already benefited from using Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M. For example, a large - scale glass manufacturing company in the United States replaced the original ordinary alumina bricks with Fused Cast α - β Alumina Brick TY - M in its glass melting furnace. After one year of operation, it was found that the production cost was reduced by 30%, the production efficiency was increased by 20%, and the quality of the glass products was also significantly improved. The rejection rate of the products decreased from 5% to 1%, which brought huge economic benefits to the enterprise.
