| The modern trend is to replace the ordinary fireclay bricks
by high alumina lining in order to achieve better performance
of the furnaces and kilns. High alumina bricks are
finding increased use in different parts of blast furnace,
open hearth checkers, soaking pit, reheating furnace,
walking beam furnace, rotary hearth furnace, rotary kiln,
mixer and continuous casting ladles etc, because of their
superiority in respect of refractoriness, increased resistance
to chemical attack, resistance to abrasion and thermal
shock. |
