Mullite Ceramic Components
Mullite ceramic components are high-performance industrial products composed primarily of mullite (3Al₂O₃·2SiO₂), offering an exceptional combination of thermal stability, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance. These components are widely used in demanding high-temperature applications where reliability under thermal cycling is critical.
**Key Features**
- **High-Temperature Stability**: Maintains structural integrity at temperatures up to **1600°C (2912°F)**
- **Excellent Thermal Shock Resistance**: Low thermal expansion ensures durability under rapid temperature changes
- **Good Mechanical Strength**: Retains rigidity and wear resistance in extreme conditions
- **Chemical Inertness**: Resists corrosion from acids, alkalis, and molten metals
- **Low Thermal Conductivity**: Provides effective heat insulation
- **Kiln furniture** (saggers, setters, rollers) for ceramic firing
- **Refractory linings** for furnaces and reactors
- **Thermocouple protection tubes** in harsh environments
- **Metal processing components** (crucibles, riser tubes)
- **Catalyst supports** in chemical industries
