Ceramic insulators are an essential component of electrical machinery, electronic devices, and power systems. They are very poor conductors that separate high voltage lines or conducting wires from the ground. Different ceramic insulators are used for distinct purposes. This article will discuss ceramic insulators, their applications, and the comparison between ceramic insulators and composite insulators. What Are Ceramic Insulators? Ceramic insulators are white, brown, or red color-penetrable textured insulating materials made from clay or other ceramics. These insulators offer resistance to the flow of electric current or electrons in various electrical or electronic components. Ceramic materials exhibit excellent dielectric properties, […]

A lambda sensor is an electronic device that monitors the oxygen level in the exhaust gas of an IC engine. It then adjusts the air-fuel mixture ratio of the engine through the ECU and completes proper combustion within. It maintains the efficient operation of your car. Let’s explore the lambda sensor. What is a Lambda Sensor? A lambda sensor, or oxygen sensor, is a sensing device used to monitor and measure the volume of oxygen in the exhaust gas of an IC engine. The sensor is set up in the exhaust line of your car or vehicle. The O₂ sensor […]

Alumina rings are preferred in your electrical, mechanical, and chemical applications due to their outstanding properties. Your alumina ring provides exceptional electrical insulation, hardness, wear resistance, thermal stability, and corrosion resistance. What is Alumina Oxide Ring? Alumina ceramic rings are dense, strong, and durable circular components made from alumina oxide (Al2O3). Through advanced forming and sintering processes, your rings achieve a consistent alumina density 3.99 g/cm3 and precise ISO 3290-1 tolerances. 6 Outstanding Alumina Ceramic Properties Your high-temperature, wear-critical application benefits from the following characteristics of alumina rings: 1. High Hardness Your alumina ceramic materials rank 9 on the Mohs […]

Source: Unsplash.com Boron nitride nanosheets are an emerging technology that combats corrosion from the atomic level. A one-atom-thick material, approximately 10,000 times thinner than human hair, that effectively protects your equipment surfaces from corrosion! The boron nitride nanomaterial comes with strong thermal conductivity, electrical insulation, and high temperature resistance. BNNs won’t break at extreme mechanical stresses, have high thermal integrity, and chemical inertness. In this guide, we’ll unravel the properties of BNNs and explain why the nanomaterial should be part of your anti-corrosion arsenal. We also analyze a case study of BNNs when deposited on mild steel. Later on, we […]

You probably think that auto parts cannot withstand extreme heat. However, the idea changed after we started working with zirconia ceramics in the automotive field. These components boost your engine life by 40-60% and improve your fuel efficiency 15-25% over conventional metal components. 1. What Is Zirconia, And Why Should You Care? Zirconia (scientists call it zirconium oxide (ZrO2)) is a super strong ceramic that can help your engine withstand extreme heat and pressure. Most ceramics are easily cracked, but your zirconia components resist fracturing under stress. Safety Notice: While zirconia is an electrical insulator with extremely low electronic conductivity […]

Car oxygen sensors control emissions, fuel efficiency, and your engine performance. Their numbers vary based on your vehicle’s model, make, year, and type of engine. Most 4-cylinder cars have 2 oxygen sensors, while V6 and V8 models often feature 4 sensors. What Are O2 sensors in Your Car? Oxygen sensors (O2 sensors) are electronic devices in the exhaust system of your car that gauge oxygen concentration in exhaust gases. Sensors are now mandatory for your car to meet emission standards. The location and number of sensors in your car depend on the design of your engine and […]
