Abstract
Monolithic stopper is one of the functional refractories. The security and continuity of the continuous casting maybe irrupted by the abnormal condition of monolithic stopper. MgO-C material composite monolithic stopper is often used to cast Ca-treated steel. But the thermal expansion of MgO-C materials is relatively large and there is a poor thermal matching between rod part and body part. To improve thermal shock resistance of MgO-C materials, the properties of MgO-C materials with different graphite size distributions are researched. The results show that 1000 mesh graphite addition will decrease thermal shock resistance, fracture energy and thermal expansion will increase. MgO-C materials with combined addition of 595 and 199 graphite present good thermal shock resistance. The trends of thermal shock resistance for MgO-C refractories by immerging molten steel methods agree with that of Rst.
