A New Frontier in High-Temperature Applications
In a significant advancement for industrial materials, alumina tubes are now setting new standards in high-temperature applications. These tubes, composed primarily of aluminum oxide (Al2O3), are renowned for their exceptional mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties, making them indispensable in a variety of sectors.
Key Features of Alumina Tubes:
Superior Heat Resistance: Capable of withstanding temperatures up to 1600°C for long-term use and 1800°C for short-term applications, Alumina tubes are ideal for extreme heat environments.
Chemical Stability: Boasting excellent chemical resistance, alumina tubes are highly resistant to corrosion, making them suitable for use in chemically aggressive environments.
Electrical Insulation: They offer outstanding electrical insulation, a crucial feature for applications where electrical conductivity must be minimized.
Mechanical Strength: With high compressive, flexural, and hardness values, these tubes maintain their integrity under pressure.
Alumina tubes are finding their place in many industries:
- Semiconductor industry: used for manufacturing components for CVD, ion implantation, and photolithography.
- Furnace industry: As key components of high-temperature furnaces, these tubes can operate continuously at 1600 ° C.
- Chemical processing: Their corrosion resistance makes them the preferred choice for chemical reactors and pipelines.
