Hydrofluoric acid resistant ceramic mortar

摘要

Hydrofluoric acid-resistant ceramic mortar compositions containing a hydrofluoric acid-resistant grog having a particle size distribution imparting a high particle packing fraction to the mortar composition and a binding phase containing a metal salt having a particle size distribution imparting plasticity to the mortar composition selected from hydrofluoric acid-insoluble fluoride salts, metal salts capable of forming hydrofluoric acid-insoluble fluoride salts upon reaction with a fluorinating reagent and mixtures thereof. Methods for forming hydrofluoric acid-resistant ceramic mortar compositions from non-fluoride metal salts are also disclosed as well as methods for bonding refractory bricks into a brickwork unit with the ceramic mortars of the invention. Brickwork units prepared using the ceramic mortar compositions of the invention by the methods of the invention are also described.
