Industrial Building Material: Classification of Fire Bricks While constructing any industrial building contractors need a wide range of materials to make it a super strong building. These materials may include things like bricks, clay, cement, sand, wood, and metals. All these materials have their own identity to use as industrial building materials.
Here in this blog, you will learn more about fire bricks and the classification of fire bricks. To learn about this, look further into the blog.
What are fire bricks? Fire bricks are the kind of bricks that are manufactured at high temperatures to make them highly resistant to heat. They are made with fire clay which makes them good resistant bricks. Fire brick manufacturers produce this brick the same as a normal brick but they put the fire bricks into heat for a longer time. Fire bricks are also named refractory bricks.
Classification of fire bricks: Acidic fire bricks –these bricks are usually used to resist acidic reactions of chemicals and even weather. To make this brick good heat resistant, it will be in high-temperature heat for a long time and some amount of silica will also add to the bricks to make them stronger. This makes it acid-proof bricks. 2. Basic refractories- magnesia and Lime are added to bind the material which helps in making it a good resistant to corrosion and chemical resistance. 3. Bauxite fire bricks- these bricks are made up of some bauxite materials. Usually used in the cement industry as it is quite an abrasion resistant. 1.
