電(dian)熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha)目前生(sheng)產電(dian)熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha)的(de)工(gong)藝(yi)方法是(shi)(shi)(shi)普遍采用(yong)電(dian)爐進(jin)行熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)煉(lian),直接熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)煉(lian)鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)礦石,不足(zu)之處是(shi)(shi)(shi)耗電(dian)量大,再者用(yong)現有工(gong)藝(yi)每熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)煉(lian)一噸合(he)(he)格(ge)電(dian)熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha)(純(chun)度高(gao)(gao)于96.5%)還需消耗80公斤(jin)碳(tan)精棒,有關資(zi)(zi)料(liao)(《特(te)種耐(nai)火材(cai)料(liao)》、《鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha)工(gong)藝(yi)學》、《高(gao)(gao)溫(wen)耐(nai)火材(cai)料(liao)論文集》)表明,將輕質鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha)用(yong)電(dian)弧加溫(wen),可生(sheng)成(cheng)立方結(jie)構的(de)晶(jing)體,即熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)點為2800℃的(de)重質氧(yang)化鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei),亦即電(dian)熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha)。用(yong)爐窯(yao)生(sheng)產的(de)鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha),經過(guo)電(dian)爐熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)煉(lian)使(shi)其再結(jie)晶(jing),可生(sheng)產出電(dian)熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha)。窯(yao)內熟料(liao)顆粒是(shi)(shi)(shi)在(zai)液(ye)(ye)相(有些資(zi)(zi)料(liao)稱熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)體)作用(yong)下形成(cheng)的(de),液(ye)(ye)相在(zai)晶(jing)體外(wai)形成(cheng)毛(mao)細管橋。液(ye)(ye)相毛(mao)細管橋起(qi)到兩個作用(yong):一是(shi)(shi)(shi)使(shi)顆粒結(jie)合(he)(he)在(zai)一起(qi),另(ling)一作用(yong)是(shi)(shi)(shi)作為中電(dian)熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)鎂(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)(mei)砂(sha)(sha)(sha)間介(jie)質,使(shi)CaO 和(he)C2S在(zai)熔(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)(rong)
融態內擴散生成C3S,顆粒的強度取電熔鎂砂決于毛細管橋的強度,橋的強度,即連接顆粒的力隨液相表面張力的增加和顆粒直徑的降低而增加。毛細管橋的數量又和顆粒直徑的平方根成反比。要結好粒,必須有足夠的液相,并要求顆粒在液相內分布均勻,形成較高的表面張力,較低的液相粘度,適宜的結粒時間和溫度等。化學結合耐火泥由耐火細骨料和化學結合劑(無機、有機一無機、有機)組成的混合料。交貨狀態既可以是漿狀,又可以是干狀,在低于陶瓷結合溫度以下硬化。按照硬化溫度,這種耐火泥可分為氣硬性和熱硬性兩種。氣硬性耐火泥常用水玻璃等氣硬性結合劑配制。熱硬電熔鎂砂性耐火泥常用磷酸或磷酸鹽等熱硬性結合劑配制。這種熱硬性耐火泥硬化后,除在各種溫度下都具有較高的強度以外,還一具有收縮小、接縫嚴密、耐蝕性強等特點。
