This is a formula for making excellent refractory material to use to line the walls of a melting furnace. I am routinely melting aluminum and brass and I have been looking for a formula that is strong and lasts a long time. All of the formulas that I have seen that use Portland cement need replacing pretty often because Portland does not hold up under heat.
Refractory mortar mixing formulas. 10 : 3 : Sand, Calcium Aluminate cement, Fireclay. If you found hard locating refractory cement don''t worry, here is one mixing formula with Portland cement plus lime available in ordinary building stores.
Perlite concrete mixed at a ratio of 1 part cement to 6 parts perlite has an insulation value, or quot;kquot; value, of and a compressive strength of 125 to 200 pounds per square inch. At a ratio of 1 part cement to 4 parts perlite, you achieve a quot;kquot; value of and compressive strength of 350 to 500 pounds per inch.
Method #1. 4 parts Perlite Standard, (This is PURE NO ADDITIVES!) 1 part Fire Cement rated at least 1400#176; or higher. (For brass at least 1800#176;) Let dry at room temp for several days. Then bake at low temp (225/275) for several hours and no smoke or steam coming out of it. Then let it
Refractory concrete mixture ingredients recipe for mixing by hand and concrete in building pizza ovens. How to make heat resistant concrete type for buildig wood fired pizza ovens and similar applications where heat and heating is present. Heat differences in materials. Temperature differences in material, heat expansion and contraction shrinkage of edges with cooling downwards.
#0183;#32;refractory cement can be made by mixing parts portland cement 2 parts fireclay parts perlite 2 parts silica sand you do not want to use vermiculite because it absorbs water which will turn to staem and crack the cement when heated

2 #0183;#32;Perlite insulating concrete consists of an appropriate mixture of portland cement, perlite aggregate and water. Its weight can be varied in the range of 20 to 50 pounds per cubic foot, depending on the mix design selected. This is in comparison to sand and gravel concrete which weighs 140 to 150
A 5:1 vermiculite or perlite, cement ratio (by volume) is approximately double the strength but half the insulating capacity of a 10:1 ratio. Regarding the two level plan, I wish you luck. The only experience I have with this idea was when I tried baking bread rolls in my small 21quot; diam mobile oven.
#0183;#32;You will need about 1 part (by volume) of Furnace Cement for each 4 parts (by volume) of Perlite so for a two gallon bag of Perlite you will need a half gallon of Furnace Cement. If you use much less than four volumes of Perlite for each volume of Furnace Cement all of the passages between Perlite beads will be sealed and it will take a long time for the cement to set (it needs contact with air).
Refractory Cement For Your Foundry Furnace can be a REAL B*TCH! Bare Bones basic Refractory. Method #1. 4 parts Perlite Standard, (This is PURE NO ADDITIVES!) mix stuff. This Pure Cement no rocks or sand) 2 parts silica sand (The same stuff you use for your
PREPARATION OF PERLITE AGGREGATE The perlite, which is used in the preparation of refractory bricks, tiles, etc., must be processed before it is mixed with the other components to make the final product. This processing is done by screening the raw perlite into 3 or 4 component sizes and then recombining these components in the correct proportions.
Refractory cement is made to withstand high temperatures that regular cement can''t handle. It has many microscopic air pockets that provide insulation, which prevents it from cracking. Refractory cement is used in furnaces and outside fireplaces, as well as in commercial and industrial settings.
This quality makes it undesirable for refractory. The quot;2 bucksquot; furnace formula. The refractory mix is composed of Portland cement ( parts), silica sand (2 parts), perlite ( parts) and fireclay (2 parts). The first three components are mixed together thoroughly. I used a 1gallon bucket to measure the parts.
