Products Overview

Our Alkali resistant brick is a high-performance refractory product engineered for cement kiln preheater, decomposition furnace, and tertiary air duct service. The alkali-resistant bricks use silica, coke stones, and appropriate additives to improve the microstructure of the product. In the process of using, it reacts with alkaline oxide to form a high-viscosity glass phase, which covers the surface of the brick to block the surface pores, prevents the infiltration of alkaline slag, and meets the purpose of resisting alkali and resisting corrosion. Alkali-resistant bricks are widely used in large and medium-sized dry-process cement rotary kiln preheaters and decomposition furnaces.

The Alkali resistant brick product family is offered in four engineering-proven types. The Normal Type features Al2O3 content 25-30%, SiO2 content 65-70%, Refractoriness minimum 1650 °C, Bulk Density minimum 2.15 g/cm3, Apparent Porosity maximum 21%, Cold Crushing Strength minimum 35 MPa, and Refractoriness Under Load minimum 1350 °C at 0.2 MPa for general cement kiln preheater and decomposition furnace service. The High Strength Type features Al2O3 content 25-30%, SiO2 content 65-70%, Refractoriness minimum 1650 °C, Bulk Density minimum 2.25 g/cm3, Apparent Porosity maximum 20%, Cold Crushing Strength minimum 60 MPa, and Refractoriness Under Load minimum 1300 °C for higher-demand cement kiln preheater, decomposition furnace, and tertiary air duct service. The Insulated Type features Al2O3 content 25-30%, SiO2 content 60-70%, Refractoriness minimum 1650 °C, Bulk Density maximum 1.65 g/cm3, Cold Crushing Strength minimum 15 MPa, and Refractoriness Under Load minimum 1250 °C for insulated cement kiln lining service. The Vault Type features Al2O3 content 30-35%, SiO2 content 60-65%, Refractoriness minimum 1710 °C, Bulk Density minimum 2.2 g/cm3, Apparent Porosity maximum 21%, Cold Crushing Strength minimum 35 MPa, and Refractoriness Under Load minimum 1400 °C for cement kiln vault service.

Product Specification

The alkali-resistant bricks use silica, coke stones and appropriate additives to improve the microstructure of the product. In the process of using, it reacts with alkaline oxide to form a high-viscosity glass phase, which covers the surface of the brick to block the surface pores, prevents the infiltration of alkaline slag, and to meet the purpose of resisting alkali and resisting corrosion.

On the basis of a common type of high-strength alkali-resistant brick, it is produced by adding an additive to increase the compressive strength. The product has the characteristics of high strength, stable volume, good alkali corrosion resistance, etc. It is suitable for cement kiln preheater, decomposition furnace, tertiary air duct and other parts.

Alkali-resistant bricks are widely used in large and medium-sized dry-process cement rotary kiln preheaters and Decomposition furnaces.
