fused mullite

Fused mullite is an exclusive material that finds its applications in industries where very high temperatures are a concern. As a consequence, it can be located in heated locations such as furnaces or kilns. Fused mullite offers all of these benefits, which is why it features in an array of applications. In this post, we will discuss everything you should know about fused mullite - from what it is to how its made, where to use them and why a better alternative often do not exist.

The main ingredients of fused mullite include alumina and silica. All these raw materials are melted together, to produce a fused mullite. This melting results in a final product that is extremely hard, dense and able to withstand rapid temperature changes. Fused mullite is unique in that it can also resist considerable heat up to very high temperatures, making its use possible almost anywhere but the hottest spots. The strength in resistance to breaking or cracking due sudden fluctuations of temperatures are from the combination of Alumina and Silica which produces Fused Mullite.

From Raw Materials to Finished Produc

Production of Fused Mullite requires certain steps - Before workers manufacture the products, raw materials - bauxite and kaolin in this case- are to be collected first. These are: materials that contain the necessary alumina and silica for fused mullite formation. They then crush the gathered materials into small bits, pieces them together in correct ratios. The correct mixing of the components is essential to guarantee that the properties are present in case we want them. Coils are then placed in a furnace and heated to about 2000 degrees Celsius. The materials melt and bond together into fused mullite at this extreme heat. After that, the fusion mullite is cooled down to room temperature. The mixture is then poured into the mold or form in which it will be used as intended. A lot of temperature and materials control must be monitored to create quality content through this whole process.
