Description

Magnesia-Calcium Brick

Material System & Positioning

Magnesia-calcium bricks are basic refractories with free CaO: MgO ≥70%, CaO ≥20%, refractoriness ≥1900℃ and CCS ≥45 MPa. Free CaO purifies molten steel by absorbing inclusions; carbon-free nature suits ultra-low-carbon steelmaking. It is Henan Songrui's professional grade for AOD/VOD refining vessels.

Key Performance

  • Steel purification: free CaO absorbs inclusions.
  • Carbon-free: suits ultra-low-carbon steels.
  • Refining slag resistance: withstands AOD/VOD slags.
  • High refractoriness: ≥1900℃.

Applications

  • Steel & Iron: AOD/VOD working linings, ladle refining slag lines.
  • Special steels: ultra-low-carbon and stainless refining.

Selection Advice

Use where refining slag matches and steel cleanliness matters; strict moisture protection, lay with magnesia-calcium mortar and put into service promptly after laying to prevent free-CaO hydration.

Installation & Maintenance

Strict moisture protection in storage and laying; heat up and use promptly after completion.

Key Features

  • Free CaO purifies molten steel during refining
  • Adsorbs inclusions and improves steel cleanliness
  • Resists AOD/VOD refining slag attack
  • No carbon pickup for ultra-low-carbon steel
  • Strictly dry; use magnesia-lime mortar
  • Heat and commission soon after laying

Typical Applications

MgO-CaO brick purifies steel via free CaO—specialized for refining ladles:

  • Steel & Iron: LF/VD/VOD refining ladle working liners and slag lines, ladle walls for secondary refining.
  • Advantage: service up to 1750℃, free CaO absorbs S/P inclusions to purify steel, strong basic-slag resistance.

FAQs

Why does MgO-CaO brick purify steel?

Free CaO reacts with S, P and oxide inclusions to form low-density products that float out, purifying the steel.

Refining furnaces for MgO-CaO brick?

LF/VD/VOD refining ladle working liners and slag lines, especially for high-grade steels.

Does MgO-CaO brick hydrate?

Yes—CaO hydrates readily; keep dry during transport/storage, heat up promptly after installation.
