Si3N4 Silicon Nitride Riser Tube
SILICON NITRIDE (SI3N4) RISER TUBE FOR THE ALUMINUM INDUSTRY OF LOW-PRESSURE CASTING, BEST THERMAL SHOCK RESISTANCE
Silicon Nitride (Si3N4) Riser Tube
High-performance silicon nitride ceramic materials developed for the aluminum industry has significantly improved thermal and mechanical properties than similar products. On this basis, the "L-shaped high thermal conductivity submerged heating "Appliance" will bring revolutionary progress to aluminum industrial equipment.
Practical use has proved that silicon nitride ceramic is very suitable for the riser pipe of low-pressure casting.Compared with commonly used cast iron, aluminum titanate, silicon carbide and other materials, silicon nitride ceramics have the best thermal shock resistance, with a service life of more than one year.
Advantage:
-
Low wettability to aluminum water reduces slagging on the inner and outer walls of the riser pipe, which is convenient for daily maintenance.
-
Good corrosion resistance, can reduce aluminum water pollution, and help improve the quality of castings.
