Abstract

Development of nano carbon containing magnesia carbon refractories has been studied to reduce the total carbon content, thereby reducing the heat loss from the metallurgical process and producing more eco-friendly refractories. The carbon contamination from refractory to liquid metal will be minimized using low amount of nano carbon. Different percentages of nano carbon are used in combination with graphite as carbon source and the total carbon is maintained below the half of the total carbon of the conventional MgO-C refractories. The compositions were processed as per the conventional manufacturing techniques and the properties were evaluated and compared against the conventional refractory prepared under exactly similar conditions. Also elemental mapping of carbon was done to study the distribution of the nano carbon in the matrix.
