Preparation of Utralight Alumina Lightweight Insulation Brick

Article Preview

Abstract:

Alumina lightweight insulation bricks were prepared from alumina powders using foaming method. In this paper the influences of foam addition amount (600, 800, 1000, 1200ml/kg) on properties of Alumina lightweight insulation brick were discussed. The phase composition is analyzed by XRD and the microstructure is characterized by SEM. The results show that the bulk density of alumina lightweight insulation brick is 0.63g/cm3,cold compressive strength is 10.53MPa, linear change rate after firing is -4.5% and reheat linear change rate is -0.27%,which synthesized under 1000ml/kg foam amount after firing at 1550°C for 3h. The results indicate that the density of alumina lightweight insulation brick is reduced with the increase of foam addition amount, when the addition amount is more than 1000ml/kg, cold compressive strength decreased significantly and linear shrinkage increased obviously.
