Typical Applications

Rare Earth and Precious Metal Melting

Suitable for melting crucibles for rare earth metals (e.g., neodymium, dysprosium, terbium) and precious metals (e.g., platinum, gold, silver). Made from high-purity alumina (Al₂O₃ >99%) with excellent chemical inertness to rare earth and precious metal melts at 1800°C — non-sticking and non-contaminating. A critical consumable for rare earth refining and precious metal casting.

Ceramic and Electronic Material Sintering

Suitable for high-temperature sintering boats and protection tubes for advanced ceramics (e.g., silicon nitride, silicon carbide, piezoelectric ceramics) and electronic materials (e.g., barium titanate, zirconia). Alumina crucibles offer temperature resistance up to 1750°C–1800°C with excellent thermal stability and high dimensional accuracy (±0.5mm), meeting demanding requirements for precision sintering processes.

High-Temperature Boats for Polycrystalline Mullite Fiber Production

Suitable for high-temperature boats and collection devices used in polycrystalline mullite fiber and alumina fiber production. High-purity alumina material offers excellent thermal stability and can withstand continuous 1800°C operation without reacting with fiber materials, ensuring product quality.

Laboratory Thermal Analysis

Suitable for alumina crucibles and sample boats for TGA (Thermogravimetric Analysis), DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry), and other thermal analysis instruments. Standard specifications are available, with custom sizing to instrument models to meet the replacement needs of research laboratories.
