Mobility-Revolution: Refractory Saggars for Calcination of Ternary Cathode Materials

The corrosion resistance against the ternary cathode material NCA for various refractory materials was investigated. For this purpose, a crucible test was modified to fit the requirements during the calcination...

Comparison of Different Reaction-Bonded Mullite Ceramics

STEULER-KCH/DE manufactures different types of mullite ceramic kiln furniture. In this paper, five differentmixtures were tested using the reaction bonding process established in an earlier paper [1]. Each bodyshowed different...

New “Green” High-Temperature Insulating Materials Made from Renewable Raw Materials

Biogenic silica (rice husk ash) is the ideal and most commonly used capping material in the steel industry. For 30 years, it has been used for thermal insulation of tundishes...

Since 1996, SCHUPP® Ceramics/DE has been producing and selling economic while also high-quality metallic-ceramic solutions for laboratory and industrial furnaces up to 1800 °C application temperature. The range of services...

200 Years of Arno Witgert

Since 1820, Arno Witgert, a company based in Herschbach, Germany, has been involved in the extraction and refining of clays from the Westerwald area, making it the oldest still active...

Pin Indentation: A Method for the Local Mechanical Characterisation of Highly Porous Ceramic Materials

This study highlights the benefits of testing brittle, highly porous materials locally in addition to the well-established testing methods such as uniaxial compression. Small scale variations in porosity, pore size,...

High Temperature Ceramics for Light-Weight Kiln Furniture

Alumina- and mullite-based materials for kiln furniture application of up to 1700 °C have been successfully developed. The materials show significantly improved thermomechanical properties in comparison to commercial benchmark products...

Development of an Appropriate Ceramic Foam for Use as an Insulation Material in High-Temperature Applications

Existing materials only partially satisfy the requirements as regards chemical resistance, resistance to heat with good insulation characteristics and low thermal mass. The approach pursued in this article involves the...
