Carbonaceous refractory and method of production of same and also blast furnace bottom or side walls

Abstract

A carbonaceous refractory and a method of production is provided, which prevents a drop in the molten pig iron corrosion resistance, molten pig iron penetration resistance, and other properties of carbonaceous refractories required for blast furnace bottom refractories. The mechanical strength of the refractories is raised so as to suppress cracking due to thermal stress. The carbonaceous refractory comprises a carbonaceous material comprising one or more of calcined anthracite, calcined coke, natural graphite, or artificial graphite in 60 to 85 mass %, a refractory metal oxide in 5 to 15 mass %, metal silicon in 4 to 15 mass %, and carbon black in 2 to 10 mass %. An organic binder is added to refractory materials, which are kneaded, molded and fired in a nonoxidizing atmosphere.
