What are the classifications of refractory insulation bricks

Lightweight insulation brick

Lightweight insulation brick

The classification of refractory insulation bricks can be divided according to different standards. The following are some of the main classification methods:

Classification according to material composition:

  • Magnesia insulation bricks
  • Magnesia-alumina insulation bricks
  • Zircon insulation bricks

Classification according to use temperature:

  • Low temperature insulation bricks: suitable for temperatures below 1000°C, such as lightweight clay bricks.
  • Medium temperature insulation bricks: suitable for temperatures between 1000°C and 1500°C, such as high alumina insulation bricks.
  • High temperature insulation bricks: can withstand high temperatures above 1500°C, such as bubble alumina bricks, zircon bricks, etc.

Classification according to structural characteristics:

  • Solid insulation bricks: uniform structure, no obvious pores or bubbles.
  • Hollow insulation bricks: there are reserved cavities or pores inside to enhance thermal insulation performance.
  • Bubble insulation bricks: contain bubble structures inside, which improves the thermal insulation performance.

Classification by application environment:

  • Insulation bricks for acidic environment: such as silica insulation bricks, resistant to acid corrosion.
  • Insulation bricks for alkaline environment: such as magnesium and magnesium-aluminum insulation bricks, resistant to alkaline corrosion.
  • Insulation bricks for neutral environment: such as high-aluminum insulation bricks, suitable for general industrial furnaces.
  • Insulation bricks for special environments: such as anti-slag bricks, designed for specific chemical environments.

Classification by shape and size:

  • Standard size insulation bricks: insulation bricks produced in standard sizes, suitable for most general equipment.
  • Customized shape insulation bricks: insulation bricks of special shapes or sizes customized according to specific equipment or process requirements.
