2. Description of the Related Art Ladles, tundishes, etc. used for continuous casting of molten steel are used not only for transporting and storing molten steel, but also for secondary refining of molten steel, component adjustment, etc. in this ladle, tundish. Inclusions are also removed. What is particularly important at the time of such treatment is to suppress the temperature drop of the molten steel in the tundish including the ladle to be extremely small, thereby ensuring pouring in a predetermined temperature range. In order to ensure the pouring in a predetermined temperature range while carrying out the secondary refining of molten steel, the adjustment of components, the removal of inclusions, etc., for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. As disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. -50404,
It has been proposed to add a plate-shaped holding material or a heat-retaining material obtained by coating a refractory material having a low melting property, such as MgO, on hollow mineral granules.

However, since the plate-shaped heat insulating material contains a small amount of carbon in an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal, it burns out early or reacts with the high temperature slag to dissolve. For this reason, the heat insulating and heat retaining properties are significantly lowered, and the compounded carbon is eluted from the plate-shaped heat retaining material and the carbon in the molten steel is picked up.
On the other hand, a hollow granule coated with MgO requires a step of firing a mineral such as obsidian or vermiculite to form a hollow granule, and a step of coating the fired product, which complicates the production process and reduces the cost. Is high.

[0004] As another heat insulating material, a baked fir having an excellent heat insulating effect is used. However, since it contains carbon, there is a problem such as early disappearance of combustion or carbon pickup as in the plate heat insulating material. There is. Further, since the bulk specific gravity is small, it is scattered by the upward flow of hot air during addition and cannot be uniformly dispersed on the surface of the molten steel. There are also problems such as environmental problems due to dust generation and the need for a large storage space.

Means for Solving the Problems The present inventor, while studying such heat insulating material for many years, has a completely new idea to the conventional heat insulating material of vermiculite, which has been used in the form of hollow granules. As a result, the present invention has been completed with the intention of using the raw ore as it is without firing it in advance and utilizing the heat of the molten metal.

That is, the heat insulating material for molten metal of the present invention is
This problem is solved by using a vermiculite raw stone sized to a particle size of 1 to 6 mm as a heat insulating material. Vermiculite, which is also called fluke, is a micaceous mineral that is exfoliated by heating. Magnesia-rich pyroxene becomes hydromica by the action of hot water, and granite weathered over many years and biotite, etc. Including those decomposed. This vermiculite is 600-1000 °
When heated to C, water of crystallization escapes and exfoliates and expands. At that time, many layers of mica that adheres to each other exfoliate and expand in an accordion-like state to increase the volume, and a light substance with a silver or gold luster. Becomes

Here, if the particle size is less than 1 mm, the scattering due to the upward flow of hot air is so large that uniform dispersion on the surface of the molten metal cannot be sufficiently ensured, and if it exceeds 6 mm, it is generally used as a heat insulation layer. The filling rate of the heat insulating material in the necessary layer of 40 to 50 mm becomes too large, which makes it difficult to form the air layer necessary for heat insulation. The sizing method can be adjusted by sieving the rough vermiculite or crushing the rough and then sieving.

As the heat insulating material, MgO is contained in the composition of the rough vermiculite in an amount of 5 to 40% by weight, and Si
O 2 can be used selectively more than 25 wt%. Here, it is important that the heat insulating material appropriately reacts with the molten slag to maintain the meltability, and when MgO is less than 5%, the SiO 2 content is relatively increased to lower the melting point, and the molten layer is melted. Therefore, the heat insulating and heat insulating layer is not sufficiently formed, and the heat insulating effect is reduced. On the other hand, if it exceeds 40%, the content of SiO 2 is relatively reduced, and the molten slag is infiltrated and sintered with the molten slag, which lowers the heat retention effect and causes operational troubles. As described above, the above composition is desirable in order not to lower the heat retention property and to suppress the occurrence of operation trouble.

Further, the heat insulating material composed of vermiculite rough is evenly dispersed on the surface of the molten metal, and the heat insulating material is thermally expanded by the heat of the molten metal to form an adiabatic heat insulating layer on the surface of the molten metal, which is effective. The heat retention effect can be exhibited.

The heat insulating material for molten metal, which is obtained by sizing the rough vermiculite ore according to the present invention, peels and expands by about 7 times during use by heat from the molten metal to form an adiabatic heat insulating layer in a short time. For this reason, not only is a preliminary firing step unnecessary, but since the bulk specific gravity at the time of addition is as large as about 0.76, which is about 7 times the bulk specific gravity of conventional grilled fir, there is no scattering due to the rising flow of hot air. Also, by adjusting the contents of MgO and SiO 2 , it is possible to effectively prevent sintering with the molten slag.
