摘要:
Process for the production of refractory shapes of ceramic fiber-containing mateial, wherein a slurry of refractory fibers and particulate refractory materials is produced in water, the particulate refractory materials are flocculated on the fibers by use of a flocculant, and the desired shape is produced by dewatering the slurry in a suitable mold that enables the water to be removed, and the shape is dried. At least 90% of the fibers have a maximum length of not more than 500 .mu.m; flocculant is added as an aqueous solution to the dispersion of the fibers and particulate refractory material; and pressure is applied to the shape being formed during the dewatering of the slurry to form the desired shape in order to compress the shape.
摘要:
Method for the production of light-weight molded articles wherein, in a first embodiment, a dispersion of ceramic fibers is flocculated with a cationic flocculating agent, a dispersion of finely divided refractory material and inorganic bonding agent is flocculated with an anionic flocculating agent, the flocculated dispersions are mixed together, and following settling of the mixture and optional removal of excess liquid, the mixture is filled into molds, converted by dewatering into molded articles, and dried. According to a second embodiment, a dispersion of ceramic fibers is flocculated with a cationic flocculating agent, finely divided refractory material and inorganic bonding agent which may be stirred in with water are added to this flocculated dispersion, an aqueous solution of an anionic flocculating agent is mixed into this mixture, and following settling of the mixture and optional removal of excess liquid, the mixture is filled into molds, converted by dewatering into molded articles, and dried.
