The AZS brick is a kind of composite brick. It refers to the process of completely melting the raw materials and pouring them into a mold, cooling them, and solidifying them to form bricks suitable for kilns. This process is especially suitable for glass kilns. Through high-purity raw materials and advanced manufacturing technology, Kerui provides high-quality AZS bricks.
- “A” stands for Al2O3, which affects its refractoriness;
- “Z” stands for ZrO2, which stands for chemical stability and thermal shock stability;
- “S” stands for SiO2, which stands for the ability to resist acidic corrosion.

Features and Applications of AZS Brick in Glass Industry
Due to the special composition and AZS properties, this fused cast alumina block is most commonly used in glass kiln construction. Because AZS refractory brick can not only ensure the stable operation of high-temperature kilns, but also can avoid contaminating the molten glass. Therefore, it’s an ideal choice to improve glass quality and production efficiency.
Here are a few comparisons of AZS bricks used in glass kilns for your reference:

| Features | Dense structure, good corrosion resistance and low blistering rate of glass at high temperature. | Better corrosion resistance to glass liquid at high temperatures. | Good castability, a variety of complex and diverse shapes. |
| Application Areas | Key parts of glass furnace with serious corrosion. | Side walls, bridge walls, furnace necks, furnace arches and other parts of glass furnace. | Superstructure, working tank side walls, paving blocks, feed channels, trough bottoms, C-blocks, stopper tops of glass furnace . |
Applications of AZS Brick in Other Industry
This high-end refractory fire brick has a wide range of applications. For example, electric kilns, slides in the steel industry, and kilns in the soda ash industry and other high-temperature environments.
Excellent Performances of Kerui AZS Brick
High Working Temperature: Kerui AZS bricks feature a high Al2O3 content, which provides an elevated melting point. This ensures outstanding performance even under extreme high temperatures.
Chemical Resistance: The combination of silica and zirconia in AZS bricks offers excellent resistance to chemical corrosion. It makes fused cast refractories highly durable in harsh environments.
No Pollution: Our AZS alumina bricks do not contaminate molten glass. This property ensures clean and efficient production processes.
Thermal Shock Resistance: These fused cast AZS blocks exhibit strong resistance to thermal shock. The azs heating and cooling maintains stability even with rapid temperature changes, which contributes to their extended service life.
Anti-Slag Resistance: AZS bricks offer superior resistance to slag. This azs material enhances the durability and performance in demanding applications.
