KERUI produces high purity Calcium Aluminate Cements with 70, 75 and 80% Al2O3 content by sintering process.
These products not only widely used throughout the refractory industry, but also in other areas such as building chemistry materials are in high demand.
【Description】
As a high purity product, CA80 contains approximately 80% of alumina, the specific properties of CA80 give high performance concretes the following properties, high refractoriness, excellent mechanical performance.
So it can be used in the refractory industry in conventional and low cement castables, which require fast setting, high early strength development, and good strength at intermediate temperatures. And the very high purity level of CA80 makes it suitable for certain refractory applications. For example: in reducing atmospheres where hydrogen or carbon monoxide is present, low silica and iron oxide are vital.
The 80% alumina cements of KERUI are represented by two product types, CA80 and CA80S.
”CA80S has good fluidity, long workable time and low water demand, ideal to produce castables of good working ability and excellent mechanical strength property without any additives, also it suits very well to be used in high temperature environment or hot summer time.“
