Where Are Industry Ceramics Used?

 

Classification of industry ceramics:

Industry ceramics includes the ordinary ceramic, alumina ceramic, silicon carbide ceramic and so on. Indeed, these industry ceramic products are diverse and widely used across various sectors.

The uses of industry ceramic as follows:

Ordinary ceramic:

In industry, ordinary ceramics are mainly used in electroporcelain for insulation and chemical ceramics with high acid and alkali requirements. They also serve in porcelain for structural parts with low bearing requirements, such as insulators, corrosion-resistant containers, pipes, and decorative porcelain. These applications highlight the versatility of ceramics in the industry.

Alumina ceramic:

Alumina ceramic has a high melting point, high hardness, high strength, and good chemical corrosion resistance. These industry ceramics demonstrate good dielectric properties, usually serving as the ceramic insulator. It can manufacture cutting tools with high hardness and is a good material for thermocouple insulating sleeves. Industrial ceramics like alumina offer unique benefits and applications in many fields.

Silicon carbide ceramic:

Due to silicon carbide’s high heat conductivity, it can be used to manufacture high-temperature strength parts. These include blades and bearings of gas turbines. It also serves in materials for high-temperature heat exchangers and encapsulation materials for nuclear fuel, adding to the range of industry ceramics solutions in high-temperature applications.
