There are many factors that affect the service life of ladle refractories, mainly including the following aspects:
1. The use of ladle: The use of ladle directly affects the temperature and thermal stress inside the ladle. If the use frequency of the ladle is high, the residence time is long, or the working conditions are harsh, it will cause the internal temperature of the ladle to rise, thereby accelerating the aging of the refractory material of the ladle.
2. The quality of the selected refractory materials: the quality of refractory materials of different brands, specifications and refractory grades is quite different. The selection of high-quality refractory materials can effectively prolong the service life of the ladle.
3. Construction quality: The construction quality of ladle refractories is one of the important factors affecting its service life. If the construction quality is not good, the bonding strength of the refractory material is insufficient, there are gaps, oxide deposition and other problems, it is easy to accelerate the aging of the refractory material.
4. Repair and maintenance: Timely discovery and repair of damage on the refractory material of the ladle can effectively prolong the service life of the ladle. A certain life-prolonging effect.
5. Process parameters: Furnace temperature, heat preservation method, process flow and other factors will affect the service life of ladle refractories. Proper selection and control of these process parameters can help reduce the thermal stress inside the ladle, thereby prolonging the service life of the refractory material of the ladle.
In short, the service life of ladle refractories is affected by many factors, and it is necessary to do various preventive and maintenance work in construction, maintenance and process control to ensure its normal and stable operation.
