Definitions
- the invention relates to novel sintered refractory blocks, especially for the construction of aluminum electrolysis cells, to a method of manufacturing them, and to a cell comprising said blocks.
- aluminum metal 2 may be produced on an industrial scale by electrolyzing alumina in solution in a bath 10 based on molten cryolite.
- the electrolyte bath 10 is conventionally contained in an electrolysis cell 12.
- the cell 12 comprises a side wall 14 and a bottom 16.
- the bottom 16 is composed of refractory bottom blocks 17 and cathode blocks 24 and insulating blocks in the lower portion.
- the side wall 14 is formed from refractory side blocks 18 surrounded by a metal casing 20.
- a refractory side block 18 can vary. They are conventionally more than 30 X 100 X 100 mm [millimeter] and may attain 120 X 300 X 300 mm.
- the composition of the blocks 18 may be based on carbon (graphite and/or anthracite) .
- the mortar for the blocks 18 is a refractory cement 21 disposed between them and against the metal envelope 20.
- the cell 12 comprises at least one anode 22 and at least one cathode 24.
- the anodes 22 and cathodes 24 are disposed so as to be in contact with the molten metal bath, the cathode 24 conventionally being disposed close to the bottom 16.
- the blocks 18 must protect the metal envelope 20 and allow sufficient heat to be evacuated to ensure temperature stabilization of the molten bath 10. In particular, it is vital to avoid reaching temperatures beyond which the self- lining layer 26 of solidified cryolite liquefies again and could contribute to very rapid corrosion of the sides of the cell. Further, the blocks 18 are often exposed to corrosive environments (very hot liquid metal, molten cryolite in the lower portion, corrosive gas in the upper portion) , and they are subjected to high temperatures and large thermal and mechanical stresses.
- blocks are known that are based on silicon carbide granulates which have generally satisfactory resistance to attack.
- silicon carbide granulates are sintered at a temperature in the range 1600 0 C to about 2000 0 C. Sintering fine grained silicon carbide granulates at very high temperatures (2150 0 C) is also known, enabling boron and carbon to be added.
- silicon carbide is very difficult to sinter and/or its cost is prohibitive.

- Known methods of fabricating refractory blocks may be employed to fabricate a block in accordance with the invention, provided that at least one oxygen-free boron compound is added to the starting charge.
- the method employed comprises the following steps : a) preparing a charge comprising a particulate mixture comprising a silicon carbide granulate and at least one boron and/or calcium compound, a binder being added to said particulate mixture; b) forming said charge in a mold; c) compacting said charge in the mold to form a preform; d) unmolding said preform; e) drying said preform, preferably in air or a moisture- controlled atmosphere, using conventional preform fabrication procedures; and f) firing said preform in a reducing atmosphere of nitrogen at a temperature of 1100 0 C to 1700 0 C, and drying.
- the particulate mixture preferably comprises, as a percentage by weight, 30% to 90% of refractory grains wherein at least 90% have a size in the range 50 ⁇ m [micrometer] to 5 mm [millimeter] , and 10% to 60% of at least one refractory powder wherein at least 90% of the particles have a diameter of less than 200 ⁇ m.
- said granulometric distribution can endow the fabricated block with optimum cohesion.
- the boron may be supplied in a particulate form or in any other form provided that the maximum moisture content of the mixture remains below 7%, preferably below 5%.
- the function of the binder is to form with the particulate mixture a mass that is sufficiently rigid to preserve its shape until step e) .
- the choice of binder depends on the desired shape. Because of the binder, the mass may advantageously take the form of a layer of varying thickness, which can follow the wall of the mold, to form blocks.
- any known binder or mixture of known binders may be used.
- the binders are preferably "temporary", i.e. they are completely or partially eliminated during the block drying and firing steps. More preferably, at least one of the temporary binders is a solution of modified starch derivatives, an aqueous solution of dextrin or of lignone derivatives, a solution of a processing agent such as polyvinyl alcohol, a phenol resin or another epoxy type resin, a furfuryl alcohol, or a mixture thereof. More preferably, the quantity of temporary binder is in the range 0.5% to 7% by weight relative to the particulate mixture of the charge. Pressing additives as are conventionally used in fabricating sintered blocks may be added to the particulate mixture and the binder.
- Said additives comprise plasticizers, for example modified starches or polyethylene glycols and lubricants, for example soluble oils or stearate derivatives.
- plasticizers for example modified starches or polyethylene glycols
- lubricants for example soluble oils or stearate derivatives.
- the quantities of such additives are those conventionally used when fabricating sintered silicon carbide (SiC) based refractory blocks with a silicon nitride binder (Si 3 N 4 ) .
- step b) the charge is shaped and placed in a mold.
- the contents of the mold are compressed by applying a force to the upper surface of the charge which can transform it into a preform that is capable of being sintered.
- a specific pressure of 300 kg/cm 2 [kilogram/square centimeter] to 600 kg/cm 2 is appropriate. Pressing is preferably carried out uniaxially or isostatically, for example using a hydraulic press. It may advantageously be preceded by a manual or pneumatic and/or vibrational ramming operation.
- the preform is unmolded (step d) ) , then dried (step e) ) . Drying can be carried out at a moderately high temperature. Preferably, it is carried out at a temperature in the range 110 0 C to 200 0 C. It conventionally lasts between 10 hours and one week, depending on the format of the preform, until the residual moisture content of the preform is less than 0.5%.
- the dried preform is then fired (step f) ) .
- the firing period between about 3 and 15 days cold to cold, depends on the materials and also on the size and shape of the block.
- firing is carried out in nitrogen in order to form the nitride by reactive sintering, which nitride acts as the ceramic binder for the grains.
- the firing cycle is preferably carried out at a temperature in the range 1100 0 C to 1700 0 C.
- nitrogen reacts with certain of the constituents of the particulate mixture of the charge to form a matrix of silicon nitride which can bind the grains of said charge, in particular grains of silicon carbide.
- a monolithic block is produced.
- the particle size of the powders used as additives is less than 45 ⁇ m. Their respective contents in the starting composition are indicated in Table 1.
- Table 1 also shows the results of various tests carried out to characterize the products of the invention compared with the reference product (Refrax® type product) . All of the measurements were carried out on the core of the specimens.
- the oxidation tests were carried out in accordance with ASTM C863.
- the specimens typically with a size of 25 x 25 x 120 mm
- Oxidation generates an increase in mass ("Om” value, given as a percentage) and/or in volume ("Ov", given as a percentage) , which results from the transformation of the silicon nitride and carbide into silica.
- the increases in mass and volume were thus indicators of the degree of oxidation. Two materials were considered to be different when their oxidation indicators differed by at least 1% (mean over 3 test specimens) .
- the value "Ic" provides, as a percentage, the ratio between the corroded length of the test specimen and the corroded length of a reference specimen. The lower the Ic, the better the corrosion resistance.
- the crystalline phases present in the refractory products were determined by X ray diffraction. Principally, it was found that silicon nitride Si3N 4 as well as an oxynitride phase, Si2 ⁇ N 2 , were present. The amounts of these phases, as a percentage by weight, are indicated in Table 1. The complement was SiC.
- the apparent specific gravity of the products of the invention was in the range 2.4 to 2.7. That of the reference product was 2.6.
- the silicon nitride could be in the alpha or beta form.
- the alpha phase was present in the form of a tangle of silicon nitride fibrils, while the beta phase was in the form of grains with a variable shape.
- silicon oxynitride like residual silicon and Sialon with alumina impurities, conventionally generated during a nitriding process, are unwanted phases which have a lower resistance to cryolite compared with that of silicon nitride, regardless of the form of the silicon nitride.
- adding boron and/or calcium, preferably in an oxygen-free form, to the starting charge advantageously stimulates the transformation into beta silicon nitride during the process for nitriding silicon carbides with a nitride binder, without causing deleterious enrichment of the Si 2 ON 2 oxynitride phase. Table 1 below illustrates this discovery.
- a boron compound is thus added, preferably in a non-oxide form.
- this addition results in almost complete transformation into beta silicon nitride without major enrichment of the oxynitride phase Si 2 ON 2 .
- Table 1 indicates that adding boron and/or calcium can improve the corrosion resistance of refractories formed from silicon carbide with a Si 3 N 4 matrix binder.
- Table 1 indicates that adding boron and/or calcium can advantageously enhance the proportion of beta phase Si3N 4 .
- only adding boron and/or calcium in a non oxide form can limit the amount of silicon oxynitride Si2 ⁇ 0N2 to values close to or lower than that of the reference product, as can be seen in Examples 14 and 15.
- Table 1 indicates that the open porosity is improved when the amount of boron in the final product is non zero: only examples 14, 15 and 16 have an open porosity that is greater than that of the reference product. For this reason, products containing 0.05% to 3% of boron are preferred.
- Table 1 shows that the presence of boron compounds in the starting charge advantageously catalyzes the nitriding reaction (the amount of nitrogen in the products of the invention is enhanced) .
- the inventors have a partial explanation for the improvement in corrosion resistance, namely stabilization of oxidation degradation. As indicated in Table 1 and shown in Figure 2, the oxidation resistance of the products of the invention is improved.
- Table 1 shows that the variation in volume due to oxidation is very limited in the products of the invention. Further, the increase in mass after oxidation is limited when the calcium that is added is combined with boron. Thus, adding CaB 6 is advantageous, in particular in amounts between 0.5% and 2%
- Figure 2 shows the change in the resistance to oxidation when the test is extended to 500 hours. The improvement over the reference is confirmed and accentuated.
- Table 1 shows that adding boron and/or calcium has an influence on corrosion resistance even for small amounts. It also appears that a minimum amount of 0.8% by weight can produce a substantially maximum corrosion resistance. Preferably, the percentage by weight of CaB 6 in the starting charge is more than 0.5%.

- the possibility of using of a product of the invention in applications where it may be submitted to temperatures that may reach 1 500 0 C, 1 600 0 C or even 1 700°C was therefore surprising.
- the inventors have also discovered that the resistance to oxidation of the products of the invention is much less variable from one product to the other in comparison with corresponding products which would not contain any boron.

It may have a length and/or a width of 5 cm or more, 10 cm or more, 20 cm or more, 50 cm or more or even 100 cm or more. Its surface may be 1 m 2 or more.
- boron helps to form a stable nitrogen glassy phase that limits the increase of crystallized silica (SiO 2 ) and therefore avoids a fall of the mechanical resistance in service.

- the sintered material of the invention has a very good mechanical resistance in a large range of temperatures, especially from 800 0 C up to 1,600 0 C, or even up to 1,750 0 C. This was not expected because of the low smelting points of current oxide glassy phases containing boron.

- a force F is applied on a top part of dimensions 1 cm width and 2 cm long (width of the sample to be tested) placed at the middle length of the sample.
- a load of 2 MPa (F divided by the surface of said top part) is applied at room temperature and the temperature of the furnace is then increased to 1450 0 C at a rate of 10 K/min. At the temperature of 1450°C, the load is increased to 50 MPa and maintained during 10 hours.
- a measurement system with a dial gauge allows measuring the deflection (or the vertical deformation) of the sample at the mid length of the sample. This deflection is measured in mm, at 1450 0 C under the load of 50 MPa.
- the deflection result is an average of 10 samples i.e. 10 tests.
- the test 9 is similar to the test 5, but is performed on samples which have been fired or passivated under air at
- test results in the tables 3 and 3' show that the products B and D are much more stable in dimension after an oxidation according a very long duration compared to the reference products A and B, respectively. It was also found that the D product of the invention exhibits a better abrasion resistance compared to the reference product C. The product F of the invention exhibits a smaller decrease of its thermal conductivity compared to the reference product E.
- the product H of the invention exhibits a really high corrosion resistance in accordance with the test 6 compared to the reference product G.
- the invention also concerns the use of a refractory shaped product according to the invention (comprising, or made of, a sintered material of the invention) to increase the modulus of rupture in bending.
- the standard for measurement is ISO5014.
