Abstract

An inexpensive production method of refractories for aluminium reduction cell cathode is of importance in the operating economics of an aluminium smelter. Unlike hydraulic uniaxial pressing dynamic impact pressing does not require immensely strong mould construction and high capacity press and thus contribute to low cost production of refractories. Careful selection of particle size distribution of SiC grits and Silicon powders, granular mix moisture content increases packing density and provides higher green densities. This method provides high performance sidewall bricks with excellent properties and long service life bricks. Ill. 5. Ref. 6. Tab. 1.
