Chromium Oxide (Cr₂O₃) Content | High-temperature zones in steel mills (e.g., reheating furnace skids) | Industry Standard: 5% (ASTM C75) Our Base: 5.5% (▲10% increase) Our Advanced: 19% (▲263% from Base) | ▲ Reduces oxidation at 1600°C+ (5.5% vs 5% doubles lifespan) ▲19% blocks withstand 2000°C spikes | Advanced versions may cost 30%+ more due to rare-earth alloying |
Alumina (Al₂O₃) Composition | Structural refractory applications (e.g., furnace walls, skid rails) | Industry Standard: 70% (ISO 512) Our Base: 73% (▲4%) Our Advanced: 75% (▲2.7% from Base) | ▲73% base resists thermal shock (15 cycles vs industry 12) ▲75% advanced handles 22 cycles (ASTM C666) | Higher alumina increases brittleness in rapid cooling scenarios |
Zircon (ZrO₂·SiO₂) Content | Corrosive environments (e.g., slag contact areas) | Industry Standard: 15% (EN 1344) Our Base: 19% (▲26%) Our Advanced: 22% (▲15% from Base) | ▲19% base blocks resist 50% more slag penetration (ISO 12808) ▲22% advanced withstands 800°C chemical attacks | Zircon-rich variants require specialized installation techniques |
Silica (SiO₂) Proportion | Low-temperature industrial furnaces (e.g., preheating zones) | Industry Standard: 10% (ASTM C75) Our Base: 5.5% (▲-45%) Our Advanced: 3% (▲-45% from Base) | ▲Lower silica improves thermal conductivity (2.8 W/m·K vs industry 2.2) | Reduced silica may compromise structural integrity in sudden temperature shifts |
Thermal Shock Resistance | Rapid temperature cycling in furnace discharge areas | Industry Standard: 12 cycles (ASTM C666) Our Base: 15 cycles (▲25%) Our Advanced: 20 cycles (▲33%) | ▲15 cycles base prevents cracking in 1500°C→room temp cycles ▲20 cycles advanced endure 2000°C→500°C swings | Advanced versions require thicker (≥15cm) installation for full performance |
Density | Load-bearing applications (e.g., furnace skid rails) | Industry Standard: 3.2 g/cm³ (ISO 22442) Our Base: 3.4 g/cm³ (▲6%) Our Advanced: 3.6 g/cm³ (▲5.8%) | ▲3.4 g/cm³ base supports 1200 kg/m² loads (vs industry 1000 kg/m²) | Higher density increases installation labor costs by 15–20% |
