Source: https://www.innovacera.com/product/ceramic-reflector Innovacera manufactures custom and standard ceramic reflector designs for flash lamps, continuous-wave lasers, diode-pumped lasers, and cosmetic surgery markets. Ceramic Reflector is made by high purity porous alumina ceramic of 99% Al2O3 content, used extensively for long-life laser reflectors. This material is sintered at high temperatures to achieve a controlled porosity. Ceramic Reflector material properties: Bulk density (fired), Mg/m3:3.1 Color: White Porosity (apparent), % nominal: 22 Flexural strength (ASTM C1161, 3-point), MPa: 170 Thermal expansion coefficient 200-500C, 10-6/C 7.9 200-1000C, 10-6/C 9.0 Ceramic Reflector features: Compared to metal reflectors, ceramic units offer higher reflectivity and therefore enhanced laser power Surfaces can be sealed and coated with a solarization-resistant glaze to give high bulk reflectivity Resists chemical attack Controlled porosity Has high strength...

Application of Thermal Analysis Crucible

Source: https://www.innovacera.com/news/thermal-analysis-crucible.html Alumina ceramic crucibles are used in scientific experiments and materials such as molten metals. Made of 95 alumina ceramics, it has high temperature and corrosion resistance and lasts longer than other materials. Under normal circumstances, first put the object to be analyzed into the crucible or crucible, and then heat it. The heating speed and the temperature drop depend on the characteristics of the equipment and products, whether it is fast or slow, because the thermal expansion of the raw materials can cause cracks that are easy to produce, or make them grow quickly. The best way is to heat them slowly, which can extend their service life.
