    摘要: A liquid phenolic resin composition for use as a binder for a refractory article, the phenolic resin composition comprising a phenol formaldehyde resin, wherein the phenolic resin composition has a reduced vaporization percentage of phenolic compounds. The phenolic resin composition is used in refractory compositions comprising at least 50 wt. % of one or more refractory aggregate(s), based on a total weight of the refractory composition. There is also disclosed a refractory article, such as a brick, formed into a shape comprising said refractory composition and heating until the phenolic resin composition is at least 20% cured and having a green strength after curing at 170° C. for 5 hours sufficient for handling the solid without falling apart. Ladles for transporting and pouring molten metals can be made with an inner liner formed by stacking at least two bricks along the bottom and sides of a ladle shaped metal outer liner, and then heating the stacked bricks to a temperature sufficient to carbonize the resin thereby forming the inner liner of the ladle.

    摘要: Compositions, methods, and resins using alkyl aldehydes and phenols are provided herein. In one embodiment, a composition comprising an alkylphenol resin can be prepared by condensing at least one phenolic monomer selected from the group consisting of phenol, cresol, resorcinol, xylenol, ethyl phenol, alkylresorcinols, and combinations thereof; and at least one alkyl aldehyde having from 5 to 12 carbon atom alkyl groups. The alkylphenol resins of the application are free of octylphenol or nonylphenol monomers. In one embodiment, the alkylphenol resins may be prepared using formaldehyde, and alternatively, in another embodiment, the alkylphenol resins may be prepared without the use of formaldehyde. The process to make these new alternative alkylphenol resins is a cost effective process and easy to scale-up.
