AZS36-Y, as a high-zirconia-content electrically fused refractory material, achieves comprehensive performance enhancements through optimized composition within the Al₂O₃-ZrO₂-SiO₂ ternary phase diagram:
Ultimate erosion resistance: The 36% high zirconia content forms a stable ZrO₂-corundum eutectic structure, providing exceptional resistance to alkaline glass melts, molten metals, and chemical slags.
High-temperature volume stability: Maintains low shrinkage rates above 1600°C with a dense crystalline structure, minimizing structural spalling.
Ultra-low contamination: Extremely low glass phase exudation prevents contamination of glass melts or molten metals, making it suitable for high-end manufacturing like high-transparency glass and electronic glass.
Typical physical properties:
Bulk density: ≥3.85 g/cm³
Apparent porosity: ≤1.0%
Room-temperature compressive strength: ≥180 MPa
Maximum service temperature: ≥1750°C
