Chemical Engineering
For decades corrosion amd wear resistance of ceramic materials is effectively used in chemical processing to ensure economic procduction. Wherever aggressive media are conveyed, stirred or metered advanced ceramics components are indispensable. Pharmaceutical or cosmetics filling processes without contamination are often based on ceramic materials in media contacted areas of the equipment.
Examples:
- Actuators and controls for aggressive media
- Components for magnetically coupled pumps
- Slide rings in mechanical seals
- Filling pumps for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals
- Membranes in the electroplating industry
