In the steelmaking process, inert gas is blown through porous bricks at the bottom of the converter ladle. This is mainly to purge gases and solid impurities from the molten steel, achieving uniform steel composition and temperature. In short, porous bricks are crucial gas supply components installed at the bottom of the converter ladle.

Steelmakers cite three main causes for porous brick damage during steelmaking: thermal shock from the temperature difference between the molten steel and the ladle causing cracks and spalling; erosion and penetration from slag in the molten steel; and scouring and erosion from the stirring and flow of the molten steel. Therefore, porous bricks must have high thermal strength, thermal shock stability, wear resistance, erosion resistance, and corrosion resistance. In addition, safe use and good gas permeability must also be ensured.
Slit porous bricks offer a wide adjustable gas supply range, meeting the requirements for gas flow at different stages of smelting. The reduced reverse impact during gas injection makes slit porous bricks increasingly popular. These bricks are primarily made of corundum, combining a base brick, a porous brick core, and a steel casing. A stainless steel casing with an argon gas pipe is fitted onto the prepared porous brick core, then placed into the opening of the base brick. Refractory mud fills the gaps between the steel casing assembly and the base brick, forming a complete porous brick.
