Research progress on low carbonization and performance enhancement of carbon-containing refractories/
In the process of clean steel smelting,traditional carbon-containing refractory materials are vulner-able to oxidation and spalling at high temperatures due to their high carbon content,resulting in an in-crease in the steel carbon content and energy consumption.To address the dual needs of the smelting process and service performance,it is crucial to develop low-carbon refractories with good thermal shock resistance.This paper reviewed the collaborated regulation of low carbonization and performance enhance-ment of carbon-containing refractories,such as the optimization of carbon sources,the use of additives,and the introduction of composite powders,and finally discussed the problems and future development trends of low carbon refractories.
