Effective Method Of Service Life Extension For Glass Furnaces

A technology has been developed for high-temperature ceramic welding for the purpose of repairing the lining in glass furnaces without stopping and cooling the furnace. This maintenance method makes it possible to restore damaged refractory articles and, if necessary, to change their properties toward higher heat-resistance as well as resistance to corrosive media and mechanical actions. The main and auxiliary equipment for ceramic welding have been developed and repair pastes for restoring different types of refractories obtained.
