Alumina Flat Bottom Crucible Conical

Material Characteristics and Performance Advantages

Alumina crucibles offer a combination of mechanical strength and thermal endurance that makes them suitable for repeated heating cycles. High melting points, low porosity, and resistance to chemical attack allow these components to perform reliably in environments involving corrosive media, powdered materials, or reactive compounds. The material’s insulating properties help maintain temperature uniformity, supporting consistent results in laboratory and production workflows. These characteristics make alumina a preferred choice for applications where metals or glass cannot withstand process conditions.

Design Features and Dimensional Options

Flat bottom conical crucibles are produced in a range of capacities to support both small scale laboratory work and larger industrial processes. Variations in height, diameter, and wall thickness allow users to select a configuration that aligns with furnace dimensions, heating profiles, and material handling requirements. The conical shape promotes even heat exposure and simplifies sample retrieval, while the flat base provides stability during thermal processing.

Application Environments

These crucibles are used in thermal analysis, materials research, powder processing, and chemical preparation. Their durability supports tasks such as ash determination, catalyst development, ceramic formulation, and high temperature sample conditioning. The combination of strength, purity, and dimensional consistency makes them suitable for both routine laboratory use and specialized industrial processes.

Support for Custom Requirements

For applications requiring non standard dimensions or performance characteristics, alumina crucibles can be produced in custom configurations. Adjustments to geometry, wall thickness, or purity level allow users to match the crucible to specific thermal or chemical environments. This flexibility ensures compatibility with unique equipment setups and specialized research needs.
