  • Patent number: 11919814
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for simulating intraplate volcanism. A technical solution is: mixing 47-60 wt % of calcium oxide powder, 35 wt % of alumina powder and 5-18 wt % of silica powder uniformly to obtain a mixed powder; putting the mixed powder in a corundum crucible, placing the crucible in a high-temperature furnace provided with an observation window outside which an industrial camera with a depression angle of 30-45° is provided, heating to 1,500-1,900° C. at a rate of 1-30° C./min under an air atmosphere at a normal pressure, holding for 0.5-5 h; recording intraplate volcanism formed by upwelling of a melt of the mixed powder along an inner wall of the crucible during the holding with the industrial camera to obtain a simulated process of the intraplate volcanism.

  • Patent number: 11643364
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a magnesium-based raw material and a preparation method thereof. According to the technical solution, 40-60 wt % fused magnesia particles, 30-40 wt % fine monoclinic zirconia powder, 5-20 wt % fine zirconium oxychloride powder, 0.5-1.5 wt % calcium hydroxide nanopowder, 0.2-0.5 wt % calcium hydroxide nanopowder, and 0.1-0.3 wt % maleic acid are stirred for 15 min to mix well in a high-speed mixing mill at a constant temperature of 25° C. to obtain a mixed powder; and the mixed powder is mixed through a ball mill at a constant temperature of 25° C. for 3 min, roasted in a high temperature furnace at 250-400° C. for 0.5-3 h, and finally cooled to room temperature.

  • Publication number: 20220089497
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a magnesium-based raw material with low thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion and a preparation method thereof. According to the technical solution, 40-60 wt % fused magnesia particles, 30-40 wt % fine monoclinic zirconia powder, 5-20 wt % fine zirconium oxychloride powder, 0.5-1.5 wt % calcium hydroxide nanopowder, 0.2-0.5 wt % calcium hydroxide nanopowder, and 0.1-0.3 wt % maleic acid are stirred for 15 min to mix well in a high-speed mixing mill at a constant temperature of 25° C. to obtain a mixed powder; and the mixed powder is mixed through a ball mill at a constant temperature of 25° C. for 3 min, roasted in a high temperature furnace at 250-400° C. for 0.5-3 h, and finally cooled to room temperature. The magnesium-based refractory material prepared has the advantages of relatively low thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion coefficient, excellent dispersibility, and strong resistance to slag penetration and erosion.
