Oxide Ceramics – Silicate Ceramics
Early developments in the field of technical ceramics began with the use of silicate ceramics for electrical insulation. Silicate ceramics are manufactured for the most part from natural raw materials.
Very different types of multiphase ceramics can be produced with different properties by varying the type and quantity of raw materials. Silicate ceramic materials include:
Silicate ceramic components are used in electronics and electrical engineering and act as electrical insulation in fuses, circuit breakers, thermostats and in lighting technology. The ability of silicate ceramic materials to provide thermal insulation is also utilized in heating, environmental and thermal engineering applications. Porous components are produced for the emission of fragrances and insecticides, as carriers for catalysts or for various applications in laboratories. Precision components for applications in measurement technology and products for laboratory use and mixed media complete CeramTec’s range of silicate ceramic products.
