| Abstract |
| Performance of ladle refractories has a considerable inHuence on the
production and productivity of any steel making unit. Poor quality of
refractories reduces the ladle life, leading to increase in consumption
and cost. Such situations can be avoided by improving the ladle life.
Trials were undertaken with bloating type, 37% alumina and 42%
alumina bricks and results were studied. Initial trials indicated that
about 15 to 20% life could be increased with the use of 42% alumina
ladle bricks. Intensive trials done recently also confirmed the increase
in life of about 20 per cent. Physico-chemical changes of these bricks
during service have also been discussed. |
