Umicore Kyocera - Alumina Crucibles and Pods for High Temperature Applications
Alumina crucibles are essential components in high-temperature applications where resistance to thermal shock, corrosion, and wear is paramount. These crucibles are predominantly made from aluminum oxide, a material known for its chemical inertness and impressive thermal properties. Kyocera DEGUSSIT AL23, with its 99.7% purity, is a prime example, enduring temperatures up to 1950°C while maintaining dimensional stability. Available in a range of shapes and sizes, including cylindrical and conical forms, their versatility makes them suitable across various fields, such as glass manufacturing, metallurgy, and research and development laboratories. In glass production, alumina crucibles withstand the arduous conditions of molten glass, ensuring handler safety and long-term durability. For metallurgy, these ceramics facilitate the melting of diverse metals, thanks to their effective thermal conductivity and stability. In research settings, their resistance to contamination ensures accurate results, vital for scientific exploration.
