The doctoral thesis is focused on the study, research and development of refractories with phosphate bonding. Primary motivation is preparation of phosphate-based binders that can be applied for non-shaped insulating material fabricated by “in situ” foaming. The phosphate binders based on Al2O3-H3PO4 system are one of the most common in refractory technology. The amphoteric nature of the aluminium and its oxides require the setting of Al2O3-H3PO4 binders under the higher temperatures. Application of higher temperatures is necessary to obtain the minimal manipulation strength of as-prepared green bodies. The main goal of the work is preparation of ytrium phosphate-based binders via different preparation techniques. Yttrium based binders would allow phosphate refractory preparation by standard way, i.e via reaction between binder and reactive aggregate, without structural disintegration of foamed material even before getting manipulation strength or the final firing procedure. Yttrium is more basic than aluminium and therefore more reactive in Y2O3-H3PO4 system.. Yttrium oxide is highly refractory material and sintered yttrium monophosphate has excellent properties from the thermal and corrosive stability point of view. This fact should compensate higher price of this material. Experimental part of this work studies the possibilities of binders preparation in Y2O3-H3PO4 system. The mixtures were designed to prepare binding phase Y(H2PO4)3. Products of these reactions were characterized in phase and chemical point of view. In order to study and describe setting and hardening processes of phosphate binders, the products were “in situ” analyzed by the thermal analyses and high-temperature diffraction analysis up to the 1300 °C. High temperature products were then characterized by means of phase and chemical composition and morphology.
