High-Temperature Kiln Furniture
Ceramic Crucibles (High-Purity Quartz / High-Purity Alumina)
Product Details
Overview+
This series of ceramic crucibles is designed for high-temperature melting and sintering, offering two material systems: high-purity quartz and high-purity alumina. Selection and customization can be based on process temperature, media corrosiveness, thermal shock strength, and service life requirements.
Key Advantages+
Selected Materials
High-quality fused quartz or high-purity alumina raw materials combined with proven ceramic processing deliver stable performance and better batch consistency.
Dense, Smooth Surface
High-temperature firing forms a dense surface that resists sticking and spalling, improving durability under thermal shock.
Stable Supply
Standard sizes are supplied consistently, with material selection (fused quartz / alumina) and size customization available.
Parameters and Materials+
High-Purity Quartz Ceramic Crucible
- Temperature rating: <= 1680 C
- Chemical composition: SiO2 >= 99.86%
High-Purity Alumina Ceramic Crucible
- Temperature rating: <= 1650 C / 1750 C (by grade)
- Material system: mullite (Al2O3 about 60-70%) / corundum (Al2O3 about 99%)
Performance Features+
- Low thermal conductivity and low heat capacity: fast heat-up with lower furnace heat storage loss
- Low thermal expansion coefficient: dimensional stability and high product accuracy
- Good thermal shock resistance: withstands rapid heating/cooling with less cracking or spalling
- Chemical resistance: suitable for a range of molten media and high-temperature atmospheres
- Reliable structural strength: dense forming with stable wear and compressive strength
- Dense smooth surface: less sticking, less spalling, easy to clean
Applications+
Melting and holding of silicon, aluminum, copper, and more; optical and specialty glass; polysilicon production; non-ferrous metallurgy; powder sintering; electronic components; automotive parts; aerospace; machine tools and hydraulic parts; high-temperature processes for pumps, valves, and fans.
Operating Notes+
When used to hold molten material, ceramic crucibles typically require stable continuous operation for 50+ hours at about 1650 C / 1680 C / 1750 C. Final selection should be based on furnace type, temperature profile, media corrosiveness, and charging method.
