Are Technical Ceramics Corrosion Resistant?

Image
  Technical ceramics  generally have excellent corrosion resistance, this mainly depends on their chemical composition and microstructure. The chemical composition of ceramic determines the type and extent of its reaction with corrosive media. The microstructure, including grain size, porosity, microstructure, etc., also significantly affects the corrosion resistance of technical ceramics. So they are highly resistant to chemical attacks and do not easily react with aggressive substances. This property makes them suitable for various applications in corrosive environments, such as in the chemical industry, oil and gas industry, marine applications, and electric power generation. Also, technical ceramics have low porosity, high density, and excellent thermal stability, which enhance their corrosion resistance.    In addition to the characteristics of the material, we can also improve the corrosion resistance of the material in the following ways:   1. Surface tre...

Application of Ceramic Heat Dissipation in Battery Cooling System

Image
  Application of Ceramic Heat Dissipation in Battery Cooling System At present, the thermal management of power battery systems can be mainly divided into four categories: natural cooling, air cooling, liquid cooling, and direct cooling.   Among them, natural cooling is a passive thermal management method, while air cooling, liquid cooling, and direct cooling are active methods. The main difference between the three is the difference in heat exchange medium.   Traditional battery cooling system: To change the temperature difference between the battery core and the cooling system, liquid cooling system refrigeration is the most useful method.   How does ceramic heat dissipation apply to battery heat dissipation? Replace insulating plastic materials with low thermal conductivity with  ceramic materials  with high thermal conductivity. The research shows that rapid heat dissipation and temperature equalization can be achieved by using the high thermal conducti...
