PCPF is the short name ( abbreviation ) of Pre-Cast Pre-Fired. Jindal Refractories is a leading producer of PCPF blocks across the globe. It has been engaged in providing the best quality PCPF blocks to its valued clients for the last two decades. The PCPF blocks produced by us are normally one-piece and solid. We manufacture it in various shapes and sizes to fulfill the requirements of our clients.
The key factor behind the high consumption of PCPF blocks produced by Jindal Refractories is its ability to perform extremely well in steel plants and other allied industries. They are highly resistant to abrasion and are also long-lasting.
PCPF Blocks: Versatile and Reliable for Global Markets
The raw materials used for PCPF blocks are refractory clays, grog, and binders. The refractory clays are the main constituent of the blocks and provide refractoriness and strength. The grog is a fired clay that is added to the mix to improve the workability and reduce the shrinkage of the blocks. The binders are used to hold the mix together and prevent it from cracking.
The raw materials are mixed in a pug mill or mixer to form a homogeneous mix. The water content of the mix is adjusted to achieve the desired workability. The mix is poured into molds of the desired shape and size. The molds are vibrated to remove air bubbles and ensure that the mix is evenly distributed.
The blocks are cured in a controlled environment to allow the binders to set and the blocks to harden. The curing temperature and time are typically determined by the type of refractory clays and binders used. The blocks are fired in a kiln at a high temperature to remove the water and organic matter and to develop the desired properties of the blocks. The firing temperature and time are typically determined by the type of refractory clays and binders used.
