SC9920 Recrystallized Silicon Carbide Tube

Recrystallized Silicon Carbide Tube Description

Recrystallized Silicon Carbide Tube is a tubular ceramic component composed of high-purity silicon carbide (SiC). Its customizable dimensions facilitate compatibility with various industrial furnaces and processing equipment. The specified density of ~2.7 g/cm³ reflects a compact structure ideal for applications requiring thermal stability and resistance to chemical attack. Designed to operate up to ≤1650 ℃, this material supports thermal management and processing applications where dimensional consistency is critical.

Recrystallized Silicon Carbide Tube Applications

1.       Industrial Furnace Liners
   - Used as a furnace tube in high-temperature processing systems to achieve uniform thermal distribution by leveraging the material’s high thermal stability. This minimises downtime associated with tube replacements.
   - Applied as a protective barrier in thermal processing equipment to withstand aggressive temperature cycles, thereby extending service intervals.

2.       Chemical Processing Components
   - Serves as a containment vessel in corrosive chemical environments to limit material degradation by leveraging SiC’s chemical inertness. This enhances process reliability and reduces maintenance costs.
   - Frequently used as a reaction chamber liner to maintain consistent reaction conditions, ensuring product uniformity.

Recrystallized Silicon Carbide Tube Packing

The Recrystallized Silicon Carbide Tube is packaged in foam-lined, sealed containers to minimise mechanical shock and contamination. Each unit is wrapped in an anti-static barrier and stored under controlled temperature conditions. The packaging design includes dust exclusion measures and can be customised with additional labelling and cushioning according to customer requirements for secure handling during transit and storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How does customisation affect product performance in high-temperature processes?
A1: Custom dimensions allow the tube to be tailored to specific furnace or reactor geometries, optimising heat distribution and minimising thermal stresses. This ensures better integration and performance stability in specialised industrial setups.

Q2: What quality control measures ensure the purity of the SiC material in the tube?
A2: The manufacturing process includes in-line scanning electron microscopy and batch sampling for chemical analysis. These procedures verify the ≥99% purity specification and validate the microstructure uniformity across production batches.

Q3: How should the tube be stored to preserve its integrity?
A3: The tube should be stored in a clean, temperature-controlled environment free of mechanical shocks and moisture. Protective packaging with anti-static features is recommended to maintain its structural and compositional integrity.

Additional Information

Silicon carbide (SiC) is widely recognised for its high temperature and chemical inertness, making it essential in heat-intensive and corrosive environments. Its crystalline structure offers a balance between thermal conduction and resistance to deformation under stress.

In industrial settings, the use of recrystallized SiC components aids in achieving stringent performance criteria. Understanding the material’s behaviour under cyclic thermal loads and its reaction to aggressive chemicals further reinforces its application in sectors demanding long-term reliability and efficiency.
