AC6697 Aluminum Titanate Ceramic Crucible

Aluminium Titanate Ceramic Crucibles Description

Aluminium Titanate Ceramic Crucibles are highly developed refractory containers made from Aluminium Titanate (Al₂TiO₅), specifically designed for the handling and melting of non-ferrous metals such as aluminium and its alloys. These crucibles feature exceptional thermal shock resistance, extremely low thermal conductivity, and excellent resistance to wetting and corrosion by molten metals. Due to their non-reactive surface and stability at high temperatures, they are ideal for use in casting, melting, and holding processes, where a long service life and clean metal processing are critical.

Applications of Aluminium Titanate Ceramic Crucibles

1. For melting and holding molten metals

Used in furnaces and casting facilities

2. Low-pressure die casting systems (LPDC)

Serve as stable, non-wetting containers in controlled metal transfer and pouring.

3. Degassing and refining processes

Used in the treatment of molten metal to ensure clean, contamination-free aluminium.

4. For laboratory and research

Ideal for high-temperature tests and preparation of metal samples in metallurgical research.

Manufacturing Process

1)Testing Procedures

(1) Analysis of chemical composition - Verified using techniques such as GDMS or XRF to ensure compliance with purity requirements.

(2) Testing of mechanical properties - Includes tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation tests to assess material performance.

(3) Dimensional testing - Measures thickness, width, and length to ensure compliance with specified tolerances.

(4) Surface quality inspection - Checking for defects such as scratches, cracks, or inclusions through visual and ultrasonic inspection.

(5) Hardness testing - Determining material hardness to confirm uniformity and mechanical reliability.

For detailed information, please refer to the SAM testing procedures.
