Cast installation. Plascast monolithic refractory products employ a unique cement-free binder system that combines all the superior technical properties of a plastic refractory with all the practical properties of a conventional castable. Plascast significantly reduce installation time and costs, yet provides a high quality plastic with superior strength and greatly reduced drying shrinkage. The tighter texture and uniform consistency result in rapid strength development throughout the working temperature range. Plascast eliminate the need for water curing, maintains intermediate strength, and allows for earlier furnace start-ups. Plasgun and Plascast are more resistant to thermal shock, impact, and slag attack than comparable conventional castables. Plascast is supplied as a dry powder for use in conventional casting equipment. Due to the cement-free binder system, there is no need for water curing. It exhibits excellent molten metal resistance.Information provided by Morgan Advanced Materials |
