Industrial ceramics are widely used in many fields, mainly including machinery manufacturing, electronics and semiconductors, chemicals, metallurgy, automobiles, aerospace and other fields. Industrial ceramics have superior properties such as high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, wear resistance and high hardness, which make them perform well in various harsh working environments and can replace metal materials and organic polymer materials.
Specific application areas
Machinery manufacturing: Industrial ceramics are mainly used for wear-resistant parts and precision bearings in machinery manufacturing. For example, alumina ceramic linings are used in mine conveying pipelines, and their life is more than 5 times longer than that of steel; silicon nitride ceramic bearings can reduce friction loss in high-speed machine tools, and the speed can reach 2 times that of metal bearings.
Electronics and semiconductors: In the field of electronics and semiconductors, industrial ceramics are used for electronic substrates and integrated circuit packaging. For example, aluminum nitride ceramics have become the preferred material for LED substrates and integrated circuit packaging due to their high thermal conductivity and insulation.
Chemical industry: Industrial ceramics are used in various feeding systems, dust removal systems, etc. in the chemical industry. For example, alumina ceramics are used in limestone crushing systems and raw fuel pre-homogenization systems, and silicon nitride ceramics are used in dust removal pipes and elbows.
Metallurgical Industry: In the metallurgical industry, industrial ceramics are used in batching systems and roasting systems. For example, alumina ceramics are used in batching hoppers and primary mixers, and silicon nitride ceramics are used in single-chamber pump roasting sand pipes and ash hoppers.
Automobile Industry: In the automotive industry, industrial ceramics are used for oil drilling equipment parts and corrosion-resistant parts. For example, ceramic materials can replace metals for drilling equipment parts in oil fields, extending service life and improving recovery rates.
Aerospace: In the aerospace field, industrial ceramics are used to manufacture lightweight structures and cutting tools. For example, lightweight ceramics are widely used in modern fighter jets, and the life of cutting tools is dozens of times that of general metal tools.
