Silicon Carbide Crucible Test Standards                                                                                                             

1.Silicon carbide crucibles are tested according to a variety of standards, including ASTM C638, ISO 9001 and JIS R1702. 

2.These standards specify the requirements for the design, manufacture and performance of silicon carbide crucibles. 

3.The standards cover the physical and chemical characteristics of the crucibles, their performance in a variety of applications, and their compatibility with other materials. 

4.Additionally, these standards require that the crucibles are manufactured in accordance with accepted industry practices, and that they are tested for conformance to the applicable standards.

Use/Maintenance Methods                                                                                                                                  

The SiC silicon carbide crucible must be kept in a dry and ventilated place, preferably on a wooden carrier.Avoid placing the crucible directly on the brick, soil or cement ground. The crucible will be damaged by moisture, which will reduce the melting efficiency and service life of the crucible. In serious cases, the bottom will even fall off.

The service life of the crucible can be greatly extended by using the correct method of preheating the crucible.

(1) According to different types of crucible furnaces, when the crucible is used for the first time, the crucible should be preheated to about 200 ° C for 60-120 minutes without feeding, and dried for 60 minutes.The purpose is to volatilize the moisture inhaled on the surface of the crucible.Prevent bursting at the beginning of use.

(2) After preheating, the crucible should be heated to 800℃(about 2 hours) as soon as possible, and keep warm for 20~30 minutes, and then rise to or fall to the working temperature.The purpose is to quickly pass through the graphite crucible easy oxidation temperature region.

(3) The crucible usually does not need to be preheated again after this preheating, unless the crucible is damp again.

1.Q: What is a silicon carbide crucible? 

A: A silicon carbide crucible is a special type of ceramic vessel that is used for melting and refining metals and other materials at extremely high temperatures. It is made from a combination of silicon and carbon atoms and is extremely resistant to thermal shock and corrosion. The crucible is typically used in industries such as metallurgy, foundry and ceramic production. 

2.Q: What are the advantages of using a silicon carbide crucible?

A: Silicon carbide crucibles offer several advantages over other types of crucibles. They are highly resistant to thermal shock and corrosion, making them ideal for use in high temperature applications. They also have excellent thermal conductivity, which helps to ensure uniform melting and refining of metals. Additionally, the crucible is able to withstand very high temperatures without deforming or cracking. 

3.Q: How do you care for a silicon carbide crucible? 

A: To ensure optimal performance, it is important to properly maintain and care for your silicon carbide crucible. Be sure to clean the crucible after each use to remove any material residue or deposits. It is also important to inspect the crucible for any signs of wear or damage before each use. Store the crucible in a cool, dry place to prevent any damage from moisture or humidity.
