MAGreenX™
MAGreenX™ is a Magnesia-Carbon brick product used in secondary refining furnaces during the steelmaking process by steel manufacturers.
Compared to traditional magnesia-chrome bricks, it has a lower impact on human health and the environment.
Presentation Materials and inquiries for MAGreenX™
MAGreenX™ achieves low thermal conductivity thanks to its lower carbon content compared to conventional Magnesia-Carbon bricks (MgO-C bricks). This helps reduce heat loss during RH (vacuum degassing furnace) operations and is expected to improve energy efficiency.
As a “Magnesia-Carbon brick” primarily made from magnesium oxide (MgO) and graphite (C), MAGreenX™ allows for chrome-free lining without the use of magnesia-chrome bricks.
MAGreenX™ offers higher resistance to high-temperature iron oxide compared to Magnesia-Chrome bricks widely used in RH furnaces, resulting in improved service life.

Additionally, MAGreenX™ comes in various types, and materials with excellent thermal spalling resistance help suppress the occurrence of cracks.

Since MAGreenX™ is “unburned (non-fired)” during the manufacturing process, it significantly reduces CO₂ emissions during production, making it an environmentally friendly refractory material.
