Domande frequenti
1. What is a silicon nitride sleeve?
A silicon nitride ceramic sleeve is a ceramic tube specifically designed for high-temperature, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant protection. It provides protection for shafts, sensors, or fluid channels, serving as a protective, isolating, and supporting element.
2.What are the differences between silicon nitride sleeves and alumina sleeves?
Alumina sleeves are more economical and used in more common applications, while silicon nitride sleeves offer superior performance, stronger thermal shock resistance, and are less prone to cracking.
3.What is the maximum operating temperature of a silicon nitride protective tube?
In air, it can be used continuously at high temperatures of 800–1000°C. In an inert atmosphere or vacuum environment, it can operate even higher.
4.What are the main applications of silicon nitride ceramic protective tubes?
For example, they are used as protective sleeves for pump shafts, in molten metal transport systems, as thermocouple protective tubes, and for insulation protection of semiconductor equipment.
