One having a roof over one’s head is very essential and vital. Nowadays, people don’t just want a place called house/building but a house that is warm especially in the cold season.

Having a warm place of work as well is vital. Also, having a building that will lead to a reduction in externalities cannot be overemphasized.

In this article, I would like to take you through the production process and some major merits of insulating bricks.

Why not get a couch, relax, and get something to munch while going through this article?

Production Process of Insulating Bricks

Various materials are used in making insulating bricks. Highlighted below are some of the materials and the process of insulating bricks.

Raw materials

Insulating bricks are sometimes referred to as refractory bricks or silicate bricks. Aluminum silicate bricks are the most used bricks. Its chemical composition has a direct impact on brick classification.

 Its higher classification of temperature is due to the high content of alumina and the firing temperature.

Some of the raw materials used in making the insulating bricks are:

a. Clay

b. Kaolin

c. Kyanite

d. Mullite

e. Sillimanite

f. Chamotte, among others.

Highlighted below are some of the shaping and firing processes of insulating bricks.

i. Slingering Process

This is a continuous process, here the masses are slingered or on a belt mostly referred to as a conveyor belt. Insulating bricks are always of medium density and are normally produced in this process.

ii. Extrusion Process

The extrusion process normally passes through mulling right after mixing. Water absorbing material are mostly used in this process which aids in having uniform moisture in the mixture process.

The bricks are then squeezed out through the mouthpiece, cut, and dried.

iii. Dry Pressing Process

The dry pressing process is mostly suitable for producing insulating bricks having a high density.

iv. Shaping Process

During the shaping process with the aid of the porosity agents bring about the typical structures of the insulating bricks.

Merits of Using Insulating Bricks

Listed below are some insulating bricks merit.

1. Strength

Insulating bricks have a very high strength which gives room for more elevated temperatures structures. It is highly compatible with fire bricks and adds more strength to all constructions done with insulating bricks.

2. High Purity

Insulating bricks are low in impurities such as iron, it easily affects factory performance in any of its application processes. It is commonly used in furnaces which helps in controlling the atmosphere.

3. Accurate Dimensions

Insulating bricks are mostly done with the use of a machine which aids in having an accurate dimension. When the materials used in making insulating bricks are well laid it results into tighter and stronger bricks

4. Low Heat Storage

Low heat storage insulating bricks help in reducing fuel costs and heat up cyclically operating heating equipment at a very high rate.

5. High Insulating Value

Having a very thin furnace walls is due to the insulating bricks which has a very lightweight and high insulating value. It also reduces operating costs and increases the efficiency rate.
