Silicon nitride ceramic/Si3n4 ceramic/for heat-resistant parts/innovacera

Silicon nitride and silicon nitride ceramics have outstanding high-temperature, mechanical, wear, and thermal properties.  They also have moderate thermal conductivity, a low coefficient of thermal expansion, a moderately high elastic modulus, and unusually high fracture toughness for a ceramic.

Silicon nitride ceramic features:

1) Excellent wear resistance/hardness

 2) Low thermal expansion

3) Good chemical corrosion resistance

4) High temperature performance

5) Good thermal shock behaviour

6) Good flexural strength

7) Low weight

8) High Stiffness

9) Electrically insulating

Silicon nitride ceramic applications:

1) Molten metal handling (including crucible / wear plates)

2) Brazing jigs

3) Induction heating coil supports

4) Reinforcement phase for composites

5) Welding jigs, fixtures and weld location pins

6) Dental heat treatment supports

7) TIG / Plasma welding nozzles

8) Thermocouple sheaths

9) Bearings and rollers

10) Glow plugs

11) Cutting tools
