High Temperature MoSi2 Heating Elements Electric Power For Laboratory Furnace
High Temperature Mosi2 Heating Elements Electric Power For Laboratory Furnace
MoSi2 rod heating element is a kind of resistance heating element made from Molybdenum Disilicide. It can be exerted under the high temperature of the oxidated atmosphere. MoSi2 heating element rod has the unique function of high temperature anti-oxidation. Under the oxidated atmosphere, the maximum temperature of MoSi2 elements is 1800°C. It can be made into various types, including U-type, W-type, right-angle as well as circular type.

Oxygen-resistance under high temperature: in oxidizing atmosphere, a layer of compact quartz protective film is formed on the surface of element owing to the high temperature combustion, which prevent Mosi2 from oxidizing more. When the element temperature is higher than 1700 °C, the film becomes melting. It’s not suitable for long time use in the temperature range of 400-700°C, otherwise, the element will be powdering for the strong oxidation under low temperature.
