Abstract: An unfired, refractory molded body (1), especially a plate, especially for thermal insulation of molten metal and/or an ingot solidifying from molten metal, that includes a binding agent matrix (2) of a set binder and aggregate grains (3) of biogenic silicic acid, preferably of rice husk ash, which are incorporated into the binding agent matrix (2), wherein the binding agent matrix (2) consists of silica gel, as well as a process for its production and its usage.

Abstract: An unfired, refractory molded body (1), includes a binding agent matrix (2) containing at least one set, permanent binding material and aggregate grains (3) with and/or of biogenic silicic acid, preferably with and/or of rice husk ash, which grains are incorporated into the binding agent matrix (2), for thermal isolation of a molten metal, especially of molten steel, and/or of a metal ingot solidifying from the molten metal, and also the use of the molded body (1) for thermal isolation of a refractory lining, in particular in a multiple-layer brick wall or in a heat-treatment furnace, or as a corrosion barrier, e.g. against alkali attack, or as a fire protection lining or as filter material for hot gases.

Abstract: A refractory has the form of a dry, mineral batch of fire-resistant mineral materials combined in such a way that refractories which are long-term resistant to fayalite-containing slags, sulfidic melts (mattes), sulfates and non-ferrous metal melts and are used for refractory linings in industrial non-ferrous metal melting furnaces can be manufactured. The refractory at least contains: —at least one coarse-grained magnesia raw material as the main component; —magnesia (MgO) meal; —at least one fire-resistant reagent which, during the melting process, acts (in situ) in a reducing manner on non-ferrous metal oxide melts and/or non-ferrous metal iron oxide melts and converts same into non-ferrous metal melts.
