The 'quality gatekeeper' under high temperature: How can this testing center make refractory materials' withstand '?

2025-11-13

In the 1600 ℃ flames of steel blast furnaces and the 2000 ℃ heat waves of cement kilns, a qualified refractory material is not only the "protective armor" of industrial equipment, but also the "lifeline" of safe production. The "quality control personnel" hidden behind these high-temperature scenes are none other than the Sinosteel Luoyang Institute of Refractories Research Co., Ltd. Quality Inspection and Testing Center.

This is not an ordinary laboratory, but a comprehensive testing station for refractory materials: from physical properties (compressive strength, thermal conductivity) to chemical indicators (composition analysis, slag erosion resistance), from room temperature testing to 1800 ℃ extreme high temperature simulation, 600+testing items cover all types of materials such as refractory bricks, castables, fiber cotton, etc. In the laboratory, the German imported high-temperature thermal expansion instrument can accurately monitor deformation up to 0.01mm, and the Japanese electron scanning electron microscope can analyze microstructure up to 300000 times. Combined with CNAS and CMA dual certification qualifications, every testing report has become the industry's "hard currency".

What understands customers better is their "practical thinking": customizing "low-cost and fast inspection solutions" for small and medium-sized factories, and producing reports at high speed; Provide on-site testing and risk prediction for key projects, tracking the entire process from material entry to kiln service. After all, in the industrial field, the quality of a refractory brick may be related to the shutdown losses of a production line, or even the life or death of a safety accident.

Here, 'detection' is not a cold number, but a 'safety stamp' on every refractory material - after all, only materials that dare to 'withstand' are worthy of the high temperature test of industry.
