Magnesite refractory is a type of refractory material made from magnesite, a mineral that mainly consists of magnesium carbonate (MgCO3). Magnesite has a high melting point and good thermal stability, making it an ideal raw material for manufacturing refractory products.
Magnesite refractory can be made into various forms, including bricks, castable mixes, ramming mixes, gunning mixes, and other shapes. The properties of magnesite refractory depend on the quality and purity of the magnesite used, as well as the manufacturing process.
Magnesite refractory products have many desirable properties, such as excellent resistance to high temperatures, good corrosion resistance, and low thermal conductivity. They are widely used in industries such as steelmaking, cement production, and non-ferrous metal processing.
One of the most common applications of magnesite refractory is in the lining of furnaces, kilns, and other high-temperature industrial equipment. Magnesite refractory can withstand temperatures of up to 2000°C, making it suitable for use in demanding heat-intensive environments.
