Title:
HIGHLY ZIRCONIA-BASED REFRACTORY AND MELTING FURNACE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/116960
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A highly zirconia-based refractory suitable for use in electric melting furnaces which has a high electrical resistivity at high temperatures and does not exhibit a chipping-off phenomenon in which the refractory surface partially chips off at elevated temperatures and which, even when in contact with a molten low-alkali glass, is reduced in the extraction of components therefrom and, hence, rarely cracks during operation. The highly zirconia-based refractory comprises, as chemical components, 85-95 mass% ZrO2 in terms of inner percentage, 3.0-10 mass% SiO2 in terms of inner percentage, and 0.85-3.0 mass% Al2O3 in terms of inner percentage, contains substantially no Na2O, and contains 0.01-0.5 mass% K2O in terms of outer percentage, 1.5-3.0 mass% SrO in terms of inner percentage, and 0.1-2.0 mass% Nb2O5 and/or Ta2O5 in terms of the inner percentage of the value of {(Nb2O5 content)+(Ta2O5 content)/1.66}.
