Description
Silica brick is an acidic refractory brick, usually containing more than 93% silica, and also contains a small amount of impurities such as alumina, calcium oxide, and iron oxide.
Silica bricks are divided into four types according to their use: general silica bricks, silica bricks for glass kilns, silica bricks for coke ovens, and silica bricks for hot blast furnaces.

Applications
Silica bricks are acidic refractory materials and play a key role in many high-temperature industrial:
In the metallurgical industry, silica bricks are often used in the carbonization chamber and combustion chamber of the coke oven, as well as the belly of the blast furnace, because of their high temperatures and slag erosion resistance.
In the glass industry, silica bricks are also used in small furnace and the regenerator of the glass melting furnace to ensure the stable operation of glass production.
Silica bricks are also used in ceramic kilns, because of their refractory and heat insulating properties to extend the service life of the equipment and help various industries to produce efficiently.
