Mullite Heating Protection Tube
Abstract:
Mullite heating protection tube, made of silicate ceramic mullite, is a refractory oxide material showing low thermal expansion, good mechanical strength, and resilience at elevated high temperatures. Supreme Ceramic Materials (SCM) supplies Mullite heating protection tubes with high quality and fast delivery, and customized products are also available.
Mullite Heating Protection Tube Description
Mullite heating protection tube is made of silicate ceramic mullite. Mullite is a refractory oxide material combining low thermal expansion, good mechanical strength, and resilience at elevated high temperatures. Raw mullite materials are easily obtained and are reasonably priced. It is certainly one of the most important oxide materials for both conventional and advanced ceramics. Its workability allows an extensive range and flexibility in fabrication. It is well suited for the casting of special shapes and larger tubes.
