Abstract
- Colloidal silica bonded bauxite-andalusite based castables were prepared using homogenized bauxite and andalusite as aggregates, andalusite fines, corundum fines, ultrafine Al 2 O 3 as matrixes and colloidal silica as binders. Effects of microsilica addition on the green strength, physical properties, hot strength and thermal shock resistance of castables were investigated. Moreover, phase composition and morphological evolution of specimens were characterized by XRD and SEM analysis. Green strength after demoulding, cold strength and hot strength as well as thermal shock resistance of the castables are enhanced with microsilica addition, which attribute to generating more chemical bond (–Si–O–Si–) after demoulding and heating at intermediate temperature (up to 1100 °C), and creating a stronger mullite bonding at higher temperature (1400 °C) compare to the specimens without microsilica.
