iSTAR Refracarb®: Engineered Coal Tar Pitch for Refractory - Magnesia Carbon Bricks Manufacturing & Anhydrous Mudgun Mass.
Our innovative coal tar pitch is engineered specifically for refractory applications like Magnesia Carbon bricks and Anhydrous Mudgun Mass/Tap Hole clay manufacturing. This groundbreaking product is designed to elevate your refractory products to new heights of performance, providing a superior alternative to Carbores products by Rain Carbon - Rutgers.
Why iSTAR Refracarb®?
Traditional methods for creating magnesia-carbon materials have relied on coal tar pitch or phenolic resin. While these have served us well, it’s time for an upgrade to meet modern standards and environmental needs. Here’s how iSTAR Refracarb® is changing the game:
Key Benefits:
- Cost Efficiency: iSTAR Refracarb® seamlessly blends liquid phenolic resin with iSTAR Refracarb® powder, reducing overall costs and saving on materials and antioxidants. This means more efficient production and better margins for your business.
- Flexibility: With iSTAR Refracarb®, you can adjust powder proportions in your mixture from 0.5% to 2%, offering the flexibility to tailor your bonding system to your exact needs.
- Exceptional Strength: While there may be a slight initial dip in strength post-tempering, iSTAR Refracarb® quickly exceeds expectations during carbonization, achieving strength levels comparable to traditional pitch-bonded bricks.
- Ease of Use: iSTAR Refracarb®’s low viscosity allows for a hassle-free mixing process at room temperature, simplifying your production line and saving valuable time.
- Environmental Responsibility: iSTAR Refracarb® contains less benzopyrene, complying with the stringent EU regulation TRGS 551.
Laboratory Excellence:
Our rigorous testing with dual iSTAR Refracarb® bonding systems and iSTAR Refracarb®/Resin bonding systems has consistently delivered outstanding results in bulk density, cold crushing strength (CCS), porosity, and permanent linear change (PLC).
Safety First:
iSTAR Refracarb® prioritizes safety during handling and lining, making it not only an innovative but also a practical choice for your operations.
Product Highlights:
-
iSTAR REFRACARB® P: With a high Softening Point (>220°C) and excellent coking yield,this carbonaceous powder is perfect for resin-bonded Magnesia-carbon (MgO-C) or Dolomite bricks, Alumina-carbon (Al2O3-C) refractories, tap-hole mix, or blast furnace runner mix.
-
iSTAR REFRACARB® T60: This single binder system has a viscosity similar to coal tar but offers superior performance for Tap Hole Mass or Ramming Paste.
-
iSTAR REFRACARB® F112M: An environmentally friendly low benzo[a]pyrene coal tarpitch, ideal for Dolomite bricks and other specialised applications.
Patents and Innovation:
iSTAR Refracarb® technology is backed by patents that ensure our product stands at the forefront of innovation in the refractory industry. These patents cover unique aspects of our bonding system, guaranteeing you’re using a cutting-edge solution that’s protected and exclusive.
