Current Situation and Prospect of High Performance Refractories for Iron and Steel Industry in China

摘要

The development, physicochemical properties and application effectiveness of new high performance refractory products used in iron and steel industry in recent years are summarized. The new products include carbon-containing oxides , non-oxides, functional refractories, low cement and ultra-low cement castables etc. It is pointed out that quality of refractory products needs to be improved and high performance varieties be developed. Meanwhile, research should be done on composite materials and composite structures, equipment techniques and optimization control of refractory production should be strengthened as well.
