Glass furnaces are high-temperature working bodies. The refractory materials in various parts are affected by gas (smoke), liquid (glass liquid) and high temperature respectively. The erosion rate is uneven. Often, damage to a certain part will reduce the service life of the entire glass furnace. Although local hot repair can appropriately extend the service life of the glass furnace, in fact, hot repair of certain parts is quite difficult.
Therefore, it is necessary to select different refractory materials according to the erosion mechanism and speed of different parts of the glass furnace to increase the service life of the glass furnace.
This article will focus on the refractory material selection and structural improvement of vulnerable parts from the melting part of the glass furnace.
