Brown Fused Alumina in Refractory Industry

Brown Fused Alumina (BFA) is produced by a reduction fusion of high quality bauxite in electric arc furnaces. It is grinding wheels, sandpaper, blasting media, metal preparation, lapping, polishing, and grinding.

Introduction


Brown Fused Alumina (BFA), also known as Brown Aluminum Oxide, is produced through an electric arc furnace smelting process. It is a hard (Mohs hardness 9) and tough material with high thermal stability, low iron content, and excellent resistance to high temperature corrosion. These properties make BFA an ideal raw material for refractory applications, including high-alumina shaped and monolithic refractories, investment casting shells, kiln furniture, and furnace linings. While BFA is also used in abrasives, this grade is specifically optimized for the refractory industry.

Application scenariosRefractory & Foundry 


In the refractory industry, BFA is essential for manufacturing high-alumina products that require excellent thermal shock resistance, high load softening point, and low creep.


  • Shaped refractories: high-alumina bricks, kiln furniture

  • Monolithic refractories: castables, plastics, ramming mixes, gunning materials

  • Investment casting shells: provides a smooth surface finish and improved shell strength

  • Foundry applications: as a sand additive to enhance refractorines
