The invention discloses a
coating for water-based magnesia
casting and a preparation method thereof. The
coating comprises effective components of, by
mass, 60%-75% of fire-resistant
powder materials, 1%-8% of binders, 1%-6% of
suspending agents, 20%-30% of carrier liquid and 0.05%-0.2% of surfactants, and ccccccccccccsthe total content of the components is 100%. The method includes feeding weighed fire-resistant
powder materials and the binders into an edge runner mill for
grinding, then feeding the
suspending agents, the carrier liquid and the surfactants into the edge runner mill sequentially for
grinding, and finally taking out the
coating from the edge runner mill after passing through a
colloid mill so as to obtain the coating for the water-based magnesia
casting. According to the coating and the method, magnesia and the like are taken as the fire-resistant materials,
alcohol is taken as a
solvent, and the coating is prepared into a
powder or paste shape. The coating is high in suspensibility, good in painting, high in surface finishment, not easy to precipitate or
caking and good in liquidity and stability.
