Under normal operating conditions, when no molten iron or slag is being tapped, the waterless taphole clay is compacted into the taphole to maintain an adequate depth and prevent premature erosion or collapse of the taphole structure. During iron tapping, a controlled hole is drilled through the center of the taphole clay, allowing molten iron and slag to be discharged safely from the furnace.To meet the rigorous demands of modern high-intensity blast furnace operations, waterless taphole clay must exhibit the following key properties:1. **Excellent Anti-Erosion Resistance**: Withstanding the extreme thermal and chemical attack from molten iron and slag, especially under prolonged exposure and high-temperature conditions.2. **Good Plugability**: Capable of being tightly packed and forming a reliable seal when not in use, minimizing gas leakage and maintaining taphole stability.3. **Ease of Opening**: Allows for consistent and predictable drilling during tapping, reducing operational di…
