Zirconia For High Temperature Use

Image
Are you looking for a ceramic can be used for high temperature more than 1500 degree centigrade, or even more 2000 degree C? In Innovacera, we have such a material that can meet your requirement. It is MSZ zirconia ceramic.We also call it yellow Zirconia as its appearance is yellow color.   Its main composition is zirconium oxide about 95%, second is MgO around 2%. With MgO joining in, its performance is totally different with common Zirconia ceramic, which is white color without porosity and is only suitable for working temperature below 1000 degree C.    We have two types of the yellow Zirconia, one with high density 5.3-5.5g/cm3 but low porosity ≤5%.,one with lower density 4.8-5.2g/cm3 but higher porosity ≤12%. Please note that the density and porosity is a range not an exact data as different technology it will be different. It can be doing by casting, dry pressing and Isostatic pressing. Different technology the cost is various.   Here is the material data sheet...

Magnesium Stabilized Zirconia (MgO-ZrO2) Ceramic Nozzles

  1. MgO-ZrO2 Ceramic Metering Nozzles (lnserts) They are mainly used in steel making continuous casting ladles, converter tundishes, and converter taphole slag retaining mechanisms. Features: Good erosion resistance, corrosion resistance Thermal shock stability The service time is generally 50 hours, which solves problems such as clogging, cracking and diameter expansion. Related general products: Continuous casting tundish upper nozzle Tundish quick change nozzle Fixed diameter nozzle for continuous casting. 2. MgO-ZrO2 Ceramic Atomizing Nozzles They are mainly used in the powder metallurgy industry, the smelting of ferrous and non-ferrous metal powders, such as nickel-based alloy powders, copper powders, stainless steel powders, iron powders and other super alloy powders. Features: Higher density, Excellent resistance to high temperature corrosion, Resistance to erosion by metallic liquids Thermal shock performance. Different stabilizer materials and particle sizes are used acc...

Magnesium-Stabilized Zirconia (MSZ) for Demanding Ultra-High Temperature Applications

Image
  In the Zirconia ceramic family, there is a material that can endure the high temperature of 2200 degrees centigrade. We call it Magnesium Stabilized Zirconia ceramic. It is a refractory material. Although 95% of the composition is zirconium oxide, its performance is quite different from the white zirconia ceramic(Y2O3 partially stabilized zirconia ceramic).     From its appearance, it is yellow in color and with porosity. We have two kinds of magnesium-stabilized zirconia ceramic. One with low porosity its a density is ≤52g/cm3, one with high porosity its a density a little higher, 5.4-5.6g/m3. But their main composition is almost the same. They can be used in air, vacuum, or protective atmosphere environments. Following is the detail of the material data sheet.   Property Item Units MSZ-L MSZ-H Composition ZrO2 % ≥95 ≥95 Al2O3 % ≤0.2 ≤0.2 SiO2 % ≤0.4 ≤0.4 MgO % ≤2.9 ≤2.9 Fe2O3 % ≤0.1 ≤0.1 TiO2 % ≤0.1 ≤0.1 Physical Color Yellow Yellow Density g/cm3 ≤5.2 ≤5.4-5.6 Po...

Magnesium Stabilized Zirconia Gas Atomizing Nozzles

MgO partially stabilized zirconia (Mg-PSZ) ceramic is an advanced ceramic material with high-performance applications. It is a composite material consisting of zirconium dioxide and a partial stabilization of magnesium oxide. MgO here helps to improve the toughness and mechanical properties than pure zirconia,such as higher fracture toughness, strength, and resistance to thermal shock.   Magnesia Stabilized Zirconia (MSZ) is a great refractory and insulating material due to high oxygen ion conductivity, high strength and toughness, and good thermal shock resistance. It has a clean melt at temperatures above 1900°C and above and is specially manufactured for melting superalloys and precious metals. Its superior thermal shock resistance to temperatures reaching up to 2200°C. Gas atomization is a technique crucial to produce fine metal powder which can precisely control particle size and composition. In this process, molten metal is atomized into small droplets with high-velocity gas ...
