Mortar

Description

Mortar is a workable paste used to bind building blocks such as stones, bricks, and concrete masonry units together, fill and seal the irregular gaps between them, and sometimes add decorative colors or patterns in masonry walls.

Mortars

Characteristics

  • For bonding individual refractory bricks and protecting the joints form corrosive by slag and other fluxes
  • Suitable for bonding between insulation bricks and for uses in acid conditions
  • High bonding strength with low shrinkage
  • Provides resistance to air infiltration and outward flow of gases
  • Available in both heat setting mortars and air setting mortars

Applications

  • Used for laying all types of refractory bricks and insulation bricks
  • As a neutral layer between bricks of any types
  • In applications of chemical-resistance required

Castables

Characteristics

  • Reduce installation cost and provide outstanding performance as good as refractory bricks
  • Ease of installation and economical in cost
  • Casted and vibrated almost by the same style as ordinary concrete
  • Provide better conditions with fewer joints in where refractory bricks are incapable
  • Casting and molding burner block, Tubes and shapes

Applications

  • Castable is an alternative to fireclay bricks and high alumina for applications such as sidewalls, arc furnaces roofs, boilers, heat exchangers, bubbling lances, glass furnaces, reheating furnaces and blast furnaces in conditions requiring extra strength.
  • Applicable for cyclone preheating of cement kilns, burner pipes, nose rings, clinker coolers of cement process, stacks, sub-bottoms of various type of furnaces, etc.
