Morgan Advanced Ceramics to Showcase Alumina, Silicon Carbide and Mullite Ceramic Components


Morgan Advanced Ceramics (MAC), a leading manufacturer of innovative ceramic, glass, metal and engineered coating solutions, will showcase its Haldenwanger product line of alumina, silicon carbide and mullite ceramic components at booth #1822 at the ASM Heat Treating Society Conference & Exposition, 17-19 September 2007 in Detroit, MI, USA.

MAC's Haldenwanger product line is distributed through its Bolt Technical Ceramics division in North America. MAC's alumina and mullite thermal protection tubes, mullite and silicon carbide rollers and alumina crucibles are said to stand up to the most demanding high temperature and high corrosion environments in furnaces and kilns.

Exhibited will be MAC's thermal protection sheath tubes that provide excellent high temperature, thermal shock and corrosion resistance. The alumina tubes withstand a maximum permissible continuous temperature of 1600°C and the more cost effective mullite tubes are rated at 1500°C. The sheath tubes are available in gas-tight or porous versions, in both SAE and metric dimensions.

Also exhibited will be the company's rollers for the continuous kiln industry. These are said to offer outstanding resistance to high temperatures, temperature changes and chemical attack. MAC's HALSIC silicon carbide rollers are ideal for temperatures up to 1650°C, for the most challenging ceramic kiln applications. The mullite rollers come in several grades known as SILLIMANTIN-60, SILLIMANTIN-65 or SILLIMANTIN-90 and can withstand maximum use temperatures up to 1350°C. The mullite material provides a more cost effective solution for the firing of large ceramic shapes and tiles.

The company will showcase its range of alumina crucibles, available in capacities ranging from 5l–20l. These crucibles are widely used in research laboratories because the high purity alumina formulation eliminates contamination.

In addition to the wide range of standard products, Morgan Advanced Ceramics specialises in the custom fabrication of shapes and sizes, through an extensive range of process capabilities and precision machining techniques.
