Silicon metal ufa,monga zofunika mafakitale zopangira, amatenga mbali yofunika kwambiri m'munda wa refractories. Kugwiritsa ntchito kwake kudzakhudza magwiridwe antchito azinthu zotsutsana.
Choyamba, monga chowonjezera muzinthu zowumitsa, silicon chitsulo ufa imatha kupititsa patsogolo magwiridwe antchito azinthu zokanira. Posakaniza ndi kuchitapo kanthu ndi zida zina zopangira, silicon chitsulo ufa imatha kukulitsa kukana kwa kutentha, kukana kukokoloka komanso kukana kwa zinthu zokanira, motero kumatalikitsa moyo wautumiki wa zida zokanira. Kuphatikiza apo, silicon chitsulo ufa imakhalanso ndi kukhazikika kwamphamvu kwamankhwala, komwe kumatha kupititsa patsogolo kukana kwa dzimbiri kwa zinthu zowumbidwa, ndipo ndi koyenera pazochitika zosiyanasiyana zamafakitale m'malo ovuta.
Kachiwiri, milandu yogwiritsira ntchito chitsulo cha silicon muzinthu zokanira ndizolemera komanso zosiyanasiyana. Mwachitsanzo, alumininosilicate refractory zipangizo zopangidwa zitsulo pakachitsulo ufa wothira aluminiyamu, silicate ndi zipangizo zina chimagwiritsidwa ntchito ng'anjo mkulu kutentha ndi kilns monga steelmaking, zitsulo, etc., ndi zabwino kwambiri kukana kutentha ndi dzimbiri kukana. Kuphatikiza apo, zitsulo zachitsulo za silicon ufa zitha kugwiritsidwanso ntchito popanga zida zotchinjiriza zopepuka kuti zithandizire kukonza magwiridwe antchito anyumba.
Mwachidule, chikoka cha silicon zitsulo ufa pa zipangizo refractory ndi milandu ntchito zimasonyeza kufunika kwake ndi phindu m'munda mafakitale. Kupyolera mu kugwiritsa ntchito moyenera katundu wa zitsulo zitsulo pakachitsulo ufa, ntchito ya zipangizo refractory akhoza mosalekeza bwino kukwaniritsa zosowa za mafakitale osiyanasiyana ndi kulimbikitsa chitukuko ndi kupita patsogolo kwa munda mafakitale.
