Refraxe

Refraxe – Emissivity Coatings for Refractory

Refraxe Series of refractory coatings including energy enhancement technologies and zircon modified technologies for ultimate wear protection. The Refraxe line of energy-enhancement coatings are designed to increase the emissivity of refractory surfaces. By increasing the emissivity – a material’s ability to absorb and re radiate energy – a refractory surface will offer enhanced energy efficiency.

Refraxe offers the ability to transform the substrate surface to absorb and re radiate heat energy, improving the thermal efficiency and performance of furnaces and kilns.

The coating system stabilizes the surface’s emissivity throughout the temperature range and seals the furnace’s firebox to reduce heat loss.

The sealing effect of the Refraxe coating system provides surface densification, improving the refractory’s resistance to high velocity gas erosion, dusting and chemical attack. Ultimately, this will improve the service life of the refractory material.

RefraXE coating systems are water based, inorganic chemistries that offer temperature resistance up to 2800 oF. The coating system offers excellent penetration and adhesion to the refractory surface.

The superior emissivity properties of Refraxe coating system are based upon the use of our proprietary resin and custom pigment nano ceramic additive technology.
Refraxe has an emissivity value of approximately 0.93 to 0.95. The coating system has the ability to maintain this emissivity value across a wide temperature range.
