Making refractory from CaO ?


I have some CaO and want to make firebricks in which I can deploy an electric arc with a 150A DC welder.
Any other refractory melts and vaporizes (yes, I know, CaO too, but slower due to higher mp, so they last longer).

Is there a binder (clay ?) with which I can make small bricks from CaO powder ?

You would be better off buying some proper bricks and carving a reactor from it, a la Grant Thompson.
