Refractory plastics are used in a wide range of applications in the casting industry, where they provide critical protection against high temperatures and harsh conditions. Some of the most common applications include:
Furnace Linings: Refractory plastics are widely used to line furnaces and kilns, where they protect the structure from the intense heat and chemical reactions of molten metal. Their moldability allows for easy installation and repair, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Ladles and Tundishes: In steel casting, refractory plastics are used to line ladles and tundishes, which transport and pour molten metal. These linings must withstand thermal shock, abrasion, and chemical corrosion, making refractory plastics an ideal choice.
Coatings and Patches: Refractory plastics are often used as coatings and patches to repair damaged or worn surfaces. Their ability to adhere to complex shapes and surfaces makes them particularly useful for maintaining equipment in good condition.
Custom Shapes and Components: Refractory plastics can be molded into custom shapes and components, such as nozzles, sleeves, and risers. These components are essential for controlling the flow and solidification of molten metal during casting.
The versatility and durability of refractory plastics make them indispensable in the casting industry, where they help ensure the efficiency and reliability of high-temperature processes.
