Exceptional Performance in Extreme ConditionsSillimanite Mortar delivers outstanding durability and stability in demanding high-temperature applications. Its fine particle size provides a smooth paste with exceptional bonding strength, remaining stable under thermal cycling. Chemical composition ensures resistance to acidic slags and corrosion, providing long-lasting performance in industrial furnaces, glass tanks, and reactors.
Simple Application with Reliable ResultsDesigned for easy mixing and application, the mortar forms a consistent paste when combined with water. The mixture can be applied to joints in Sillimanite brick linings and cures via air or heat, depending on your kilns operating procedure. The low shrinkage and excellent mechanical strength ensure a tight, reliable seal for maximum lining integrity.
FAQs of Sillimanite Mortar:
Q: How do I properly mix Sillimanite Mortar for application?
A: To prepare the mortar, mix approximately 20-25% water by weight with the powder to form a smooth, consistent paste. Adjust the water slightly depending on the ambient conditions and specific application needs. Ensure thorough mixing for uniform texture and optimal joint strength.
Q: What is the recommended curing process for Sillimanite Mortar?
A: Sillimanite Mortar can be cured either by air setting or heat setting, based on the specific operational conditions of your kiln or furnace. For best results, follow the projects guidelines and ensure the joints are adequately set before exposing them to high temperatures.
Q: When should Sillimanite Mortar be used in refractory construction?
A: This mortar is ideal for jointing Sillimanite bricks in high-temperature linings such as in furnaces, glass tanks, blast furnaces, and reactors. Use it during the installation or repair of these linings to ensure robust, corrosion-resistant joints.
Q: Where should Sillimanite Mortar be stored to maintain its quality?
A: Store the mortar in a dry, moisture-free area away from direct sunlight. Always keep the packaging sealed to prevent water absorption and preserve its shelf life of 12 months from the date of manufacture.
Q: What are the advantages of using Sillimanite Mortar in industrial applications?
A: The mortar offers excellent resistance to acidic slags and gases, high mechanical strength at elevated temperatures, minimal shrinkage after firing, and superior bonding properties. Its low porosity and thermal conductivity contribute to longer-lasting, energy-efficient refractory linings.
Q: What is the typical packaging and shelf life for Sillimanite Mortar?
A: Sillimanite Mortar is usually supplied in 50 kg HDPE bags or packaging as specified. When stored properly in sealed condition, it maintains its properties for up to 12 months from the manufacturing date.
