As global demand for high-quality coke rises—driven by steelmakers seeking efficiency and sustainability—the role of refractory materials in coke ovens has never been more critical. For decades, traditional silicon bricks have served as the backbone of furnace linings. But today’s advanced production processes require a smarter solution.
Our R&D team has developed a breakthrough: high-density low-porosity silicon brick, engineered to outperform conventional options in real-world conditions. With a density exceeding 2.38 g/cm³ and porosity under 16%, this product delivers measurable improvements across three key metrics:
| Performance Metric | Standard Silicon Brick | Our High-Density Silicon Brick |
|---|---|---|
| Density (g/cm³) | 2.25–2.30 | ≥2.38 |
| Porosity (%) | 18–22 | ≤16 |
| Thermal Conductivity (W/m·K) | 12–14 | 18–20 |
| Hot Compressive Strength (MPa @ 1400°C) | 20–25 | 35–40 |
These numbers aren’t just specs—they translate into tangible benefits for your operations:
In a recent case study with a major Chinese steel plant, switching to our high-density silicon brick resulted in a 17% reduction in energy consumption per ton of coke produced—and a 28% increase in annual throughput. That’s not just performance—it’s profitability.
If you're evaluating new refractory solutions for your coke ovens, ask yourself: Are you optimizing for cost—or for long-term value?
