MgO Rectangular Tray Crucibles

What are MgO Crucibles?

MgO crucibles are containers of magnesium oxide (MgO) used in high-temperature applications. They possess excellent thermal stability, chemical resistance, and low reactivity with molten materials. Unlike alumina, which can experience degradation or dissolution in certain corrosive environments, magnesia crucibles maintain their structural integrity and won’t undergo significant chemical reactions.

The Benefits of MgO Crucibles

MgO crucibles have immense value as refractory material due to their exceptional stability at high temperatures. MgO exhibits high thermal and low electrical conductivity, crucial in applications requiring electrical insulation to avoid short circuits or unwanted electrical interactions. Magnesia crucibles enhance the safety and performance of MgO-based refractory systems, particularly in electrically sensitive environments.

Overall, MgO's combination of high thermal and low electrical conductivity makes MgO crucibles an invaluable refractory material, providing exceptional physical and chemical stability in high-temperature applications while maintaining electrical insulation properties.

Magnesium crucibles are suitable for ultra-high temperature processes up to 4000°F (2200°C). MgO crucible outperforms Alumina (Al2O3) crucibles due to superior chemical resistance and inertness to metals, slags, and superconductor compounds.

Other MgO crucible applications include:

* Superconductor material processing.

* Beta Alumina Processing.

* Dielectric, piezoelectric, and pyroelectric material processing.

* Nickel-based super alloy processing.

* Plutonium and Uranium related material processing.
