Monolithics

Thermal Ceramics produce a range of Monolithic materials which can be placed in situ by casting, gunning, parging, trowelling or ramming.

Particular grades will be selected depending on the structure to be lined. A lining may be installed using a single material or can be a complex selection depending on the environment/ operation of the lined structure.

Specific grades have been developed for high temperature insulation, metal contact, slag resistance, abrasion resistance or thermal shock resistance.

Thermal Ceramics offer an extensive range of Alumino-silicate and Silicon Carbide based Monolithic grades.

The range has been classified into the following groups.

Insulating – Firelite, Kaolite, Trimor (Blockmix, Coolcast, Extralite, Insulcast, Insulite).
These grades are used for the containment of heat within high temperature operating structure. They can be used for either hot face working linings or as backing linings behind higher density working linings.

Dense – Firecrete, Kaocrete, Trimor (Midcast, HT, BF Cast, 1800T Guncrete, etc).
Dense or something known as Conventional grades are grades bonded by high alumina cements. These grades are easily placed by casting or gunning and offer good performance in most general applications.

Low Cement – Trimor Hicast, Morflo, Higun
As the name suggests these grades are formulated with low cement, typical 5-7%. They also incorporate fine fillers and dispersants which significantly reduce water demand and enhance physical properties. Several grades can be placed with little or no vibration.

Medium Cement – Trimor Vibrotek
These grades contain cement additions of 10 to 15% and offer easy mixing and installation. They offer excellent resistance to abrasion and thermal shock for general purpose application.

Clay Bonded – Trimor Plastics, Plascast, Plasgun
The original monolithic materials were clay bonded plastics/mouldables. Grades today can be supplied, with similar properties, which can be cast or gunned. Clay bonded grades have excellent thermal shock resistance.

Aluminium Resistance – Trimor Alcast, Albond, Alumor, Alcoat
These grades have been specifically developed with enhanced resistance to corundum growth which can occur when molten aluminium is in contact with refractory materials.Particular grades are available for installing by casting, gunning, veneering or coating.

Phosphate Bonded – Trimor Plastic, Morbond, Morgun
It is well known that refractory compositions bonded with phosphate binders offer excellent resistant to most molten metals and slags. Grades are available which can be installed by ramming, casting or gunning.

Dry Vibratory – Trimor TV90, TV80
This material is installed dry and consolidated by vibration to form a dense lining. On heating the material the material forms a sintered, strong lining.

Cements and Mortars – Airset, Blakite, Triset,JM
These are fine grained compositions, which can be supplied dry and ready mixed. They are used for bonding bricks or fibre modules in furnace linings.

Special Duty Grades – Kao-Tuff, Kao-Tab
These grades have been specifically developed for particular applications where abrasion resistance is essential.
