Ahoj Jacku, tam v Los Angeles, kde po\u017e\u00e1ry v\u0161em p\u0159ipom\u00ednaj\u00ed, jak nel\u00edtostn\u00e9 m\u016f\u017ee b\u00fdt horko, ale p\u0159edstav si, \u017ee se pot\u00fdk\u00e1\u0161 s teplotami, p\u0159i kter\u00fdch ty po\u017e\u00e1ry vypadaj\u00ed jako grilov\u00e1n\u00ed na zahrad\u011b. To je ka\u017edodenn\u00ed pr\u00e1ce v m\u00e9m oboru - v\u00edce ne\u017e 40 let jako specialista na keramiku, od instalac\u00ed pec\u00ed na St\u0159edoz\u00e1pad\u011b a\u017e po gener\u00e1ln\u00ed opravy izolac\u00ed v ropn\u00fdch rafineri\u00edch dole v Texasu. A jestli existuje n\u011bjak\u00fd materi\u00e1l, kter\u00fd mi pomohl zkrotit tyto pekeln\u00e9 po\u017e\u00e1ry, pak je to keramick\u00e1 vl\u00e1knit\u00e1 deka. Nejsou to deky po babi\u010dce, ale \u0161pi\u010dkov\u00e9 ohnivzdorn\u00e9 roho\u017ee, kter\u00e9 teplo zabal\u00ed jako profesion\u00e1ln\u00ed z\u00e1pasn\u00edk soupe\u0159e. Vid\u011bl jsem, jak z energeticky n\u00e1ro\u010dn\u00fdch pec\u00ed d\u011blaj\u00ed efektivn\u00ed bestie a \u0161et\u0159\u00ed firm\u00e1m miliony za prostoje. V tomto \u010dl\u00e1nku v\u00e1s sezn\u00e1m\u00edm s t\u00edm, co jsou to roho\u017ee, jak se vyr\u00e1b\u011bj\u00ed, pro\u010d jsou nezbytn\u00e9, a s n\u011bkolika skute\u010dn\u00fdmi tipy z praxe. Budeme m\u00edt zhruba 800 slov, ve kter\u00fdch si \u0159ekneme v\u0161e podstatn\u00e9.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nejprve si to rozd\u011bl\u00edme: keramick\u00e1 vl\u00e1knit\u00e1 p\u0159ikr\u00fdvka je pru\u017en\u00e1, roho\u017eovit\u00e1 izolace vyroben\u00e1 ze sp\u0159\u00e1dan\u00fdch nebo vyfukovan\u00fdch keramick\u00fdch vl\u00e1ken, obvykle oxidu hlinito-k\u0159emi\u010dit\u00e9ho nebo podobn\u00fdch \u017e\u00e1ruvzdorn\u00fdch materi\u00e1l\u016f. Tato vl\u00e1kna jsou dlouh\u00e1, tenk\u00e1 vl\u00e1kna - p\u0159edstavte si vlnu, ale navr\u017eenou pro pekeln\u00fd ohe\u0148 - s n\u00edzkou tepelnou vodivost\u00ed (p\u0159ibli\u017en\u011b 0,05-0,15 W\/m-K), kter\u00e1 zachycuj\u00ed teplo jako \u0161\u00e9f. Standardn\u00ed p\u0159ikr\u00fdvky maj\u00ed hustotu 64-128 kg\/m\u00b3, tlou\u0161\u0165ku od 6 mm do 50 mm a zvl\u00e1dnou trval\u00e9 teploty a\u017e 1 260 \u00b0C s maximem p\u0159i 1 400 \u00b0C. Jsou neho\u0159lav\u00e9, neobsahuj\u00ed azbest a l\u00e9pe ne\u017e v\u011bt\u0161ina ostatn\u00edch odol\u00e1vaj\u00ed tepeln\u00fdm \u0161ok\u016fm. Poprv\u00e9 jsem se s nimi setkal v roce 84 na ocel\u00e1\u0159sk\u00e9 kov\u00e1rn\u011b: star\u00e1 cihlov\u00e1 vyzd\u00edvka praskala ka\u017ed\u00fd t\u00fdden; navrstvili jsme deky a \u00fa\u010dinnost vysko\u010dila na 25%.<\/p>\n
Jak je p\u0159iprav\u00edme? Je to balet za vysok\u00fdch teplot, kter\u00fd za\u010d\u00edn\u00e1 surovinami, jako je kaolinov\u00e1 hl\u00edna nebo pr\u00e1\u0161kov\u00fd oxid hlinit\u00fd, taven\u00fdmi v elektrick\u00fdch obloukov\u00fdch pec\u00edch p\u0159i teplot\u011b 2000 \u00b0C. Roztaven\u00e1 sm\u011bs se pomoc\u00ed vysokorychlostn\u00edch kol rozto\u010d\u00ed do vl\u00e1ken nebo se vyfoukne tryskami jako cukrov\u00e1 vata z pekla. Pojiva (organick\u00e1 pro manipulaci, p\u0159i pou\u017eit\u00ed se vypaluj\u00ed) je dr\u017e\u00ed pohromad\u011b do p\u0159ikr\u00fdvek, kter\u00e9 se pro pevnost jehli\u010dkuj\u00ed nebo vrstv\u00ed pro dosa\u017een\u00ed hustoty. Prohl\u00e9dl jsem si tov\u00e1rny v Georgii, kde se vakuov\u011b formuj\u00ed nebo mok\u0159e vrstv\u00ed pro vlastn\u00ed tvary. Verze s vysokou \u010distotou p\u0159id\u00e1vaj\u00ed zirkon nebo mullit pro \u017ehav\u011bj\u0161\u00ed aplikace, kter\u00e9 dosahuj\u00ed a\u017e 1650 \u00b0C. Kontroly kvality? Zkou\u0161ky v tahu, term\u00e1ln\u00ed skenov\u00e1n\u00ed - cokoli, co nespl\u0148uje specifikace ASTM C892, se vy\u0159azuje.<\/p>\n
Typ\u016f je mnoho, jsou p\u0159izp\u016fsobeny boji. Standardn\u00ed p\u0159ikr\u00fdvky z oxidu hlinit\u00e9ho a oxidu k\u0159emi\u010dit\u00e9ho (45-55% Al2O3) zvl\u00e1dnou v\u011bt\u0161inu pec\u00ed a kotl\u016f. Ty biologicky rozpustn\u00e9 se p\u0159i vdechnut\u00ed rozpou\u0161t\u011bj\u00ed v plic\u00edch a spl\u0148uj\u00ed bezpe\u010dnostn\u00ed p\u0159edpisy, jako je OSHA. Vysokohlinit\u00e9 (a\u017e 72%) si porad\u00ed s agresivn\u00ed atmosf\u00e9rou. P\u0159ikr\u00fdvky z polykrystalick\u00fdch mullitov\u00fdch vl\u00e1ken (PMF) z\u00e1\u0159\u00ed v ultravysok\u00fdch teplot\u00e1ch, maj\u00ed n\u00edzkou smr\u0161\u0165ovac\u00ed schopnost. Jehli\u010dkov\u00e9 p\u0159ikr\u00fdvky se oh\u00fdbaj\u00ed p\u0159i balen\u00ed trubek; f\u00f3liov\u00e9 p\u0159ikr\u00fdvky blokuj\u00ed s\u00e1lav\u00e9 teplo. V petrochemick\u00e9m podniku v Louisian\u011b jsme pou\u017e\u00edvali deky s p\u0159\u00edm\u011bs\u00ed zirkonu kolem krakovac\u00edch za\u0159\u00edzen\u00ed, kter\u00e9 udr\u017eely teplotu 1 500 \u00b0C bez prov\u011b\u0161en\u00ed a o n\u011bkolik let p\u0159e\u017eily k\u0159em\u00edk.<\/p>\n
V\u00fdhody? Kde m\u00e1m za\u010d\u00edt? N\u00edzk\u00e1 hmotnost - 1\/10 hmotnosti cihly - zkracuje dobu instalace a sni\u017euje pot\u0159ebu podpory. \u00daspora energie: V dodate\u010dn\u011b instalovan\u00fdch pec\u00edch jsem nam\u011b\u0159il o 20-40% m\u00e9n\u011b paliva. Akustick\u00fd \u00fatlum zti\u0161\u00ed hlu\u010dn\u00e9 provozy. Chemick\u00e1 odolnost odol\u00e1v\u00e1 kyselin\u00e1m, louh\u016fm a kov\u016fm (pozor na chloridy). \u017d\u00e1dn\u00e1 doba vytvrzov\u00e1n\u00ed jako u lit\u00fdch materi\u00e1l\u016f - vlo\u017ete je a zapalte. Ekologick\u00e1 recyklovateln\u00e1 vl\u00e1kna jsou v souladu s ekologick\u00fdmi stavebn\u00edmi p\u0159edpisy. Nev\u00fdhody? Prach p\u0159i instalaci (povinn\u00e9 masky) a p\u0159i zat\u00ed\u017een\u00ed se stla\u010duj\u00ed, tak\u017ee je t\u0159eba je spr\u00e1vn\u011b vrstvit. N\u00e1klady: $10-50 za metr \u010dtvere\u010dn\u00ed, ale n\u00e1vratnost je rychl\u00e1 - jedna hlin\u00edk\u00e1rna, kter\u00e9 jsem radil, u\u0161et\u0159ila $150 tis\u00edc ro\u010dn\u011b na tepeln\u00fdch ztr\u00e1t\u00e1ch.<\/p>\n
Aplikace pokr\u00fdvaj\u00ed celou pr\u016fmyslovou mapu. Pece a su\u0161\u00e1rny: vyzd\u00edvky pro keramiku, sklo nebo tepeln\u00e9 zpracov\u00e1n\u00ed. Kotle a spalovny: oblo\u017een\u00ed potrub\u00ed pro zachycen\u00ed tepla. Petrochemie: izolace reform\u00e1tor\u016f a oh\u0159\u00edva\u010d\u016f. Letectv\u00ed a kosmonautika: tepeln\u00e9 bari\u00e9ry ve zku\u0161ebn\u00edch komor\u00e1ch motor\u016f. Dokonce i automobilov\u00fd pr\u016fmysl: obaly v\u00fdfuk\u016f pro z\u00e1vody. Skv\u011bl\u00e9 - sol\u00e1rn\u00ed pece v pou\u0161ti pobl\u00ed\u017e tebe, Jacku, pou\u017e\u00edvej je k zadr\u017een\u00ed koncentrace 1000 \u00b0C. V potravin\u00e1\u0159stv\u00ed jsou v pec\u00edch pro nekontaminuj\u00edc\u00ed izolaci. Skute\u010dn\u00fd p\u0159\u00edb\u011bh: v cement\u00e1rn\u011b v Arizon\u011b jim eroze roze\u017erala vyzd\u00edvku rota\u010dn\u00ed pece. Ukotvili jsme deky nerezov\u00fdmi kol\u00edky; prostoje klesly o 60%, v\u00fdroba stoupla.<\/p>\n
V\u00fdb\u011br spr\u00e1vn\u00e9 p\u0159ikr\u00fdvky nen\u00ed h\u00e1d\u00e1n\u00ed.

Vyb\u00edrejte zna\u010dky jako Morgan Thermal Ceramics nebo Unifrax - po\u017eadujte SDS a \u00fadaje o zkou\u0161k\u00e1ch. Rady pro instalaci: \u0159ezte ostr\u00fdmi no\u017ei, zajist\u011bte dr\u00e1tem nebo p\u00e1skami, p\u0159ekr\u00fdvejte \u0161vy. Na semin\u00e1\u0159\u00edch jsem k\u00e1zal toto: P\u0159edem navlh\u010dete, pokud se pr\u00e1\u0161\u00ed, a p\u0159i prvn\u00edm zap\u00e1len\u00ed odvzdu\u0161n\u011bte organick\u00e9 l\u00e1tky.<\/p>\n
\u00dadr\u017eba je jednoduch\u00e1, ale z\u00e1sadn\u00ed. Ka\u017edoro\u010dn\u011b zkontrolujte, zda se neproh\u00fdb\u00e1 nebo zda nedoch\u00e1z\u00ed k erozi - z\u00e1platujte moduly. \u010cist\u011bte \u0161etrn\u011b; \u017e\u00e1dn\u00e9 myt\u00ed pod vysok\u00fdm tlakem.

P\u0159i pohledu do budoucna se p\u0159ikr\u00fdvky vyv\u00edjej\u00ed. Vl\u00e1kna s nanotechnologiemi zvy\u0161uj\u00ed kontrolu vodivosti pro chyt\u0159ej\u0161\u00ed izolaci.
