The extreme environments in primary aluminium production require advanced refractory materials.
Our refractories for primary aluminium production combine resistance to heat and corrosion with physical strength and high purity. Saint-Gobain materials are designed to resist spalling at higher temperatures, and to survive the aggressive chemical attack experienced inside the pot cell. The result is higher purity aluminium due to less refractor contamination.
As an OEM-approved supplier, Saint-Gobain provides a range of engineered products for the Aluminum Reduction Cell. Our sidewall blocks, mortars and castable cements are used by the world’s leading aluminium producers.
