Tungsten and Molybdenum Crucible Applied in Sapphire Production




Molybdenum Crucible
During sapphire production, Al2O3 - the compound that is to become the future single crystal - is melted in molybdenum crucible and tungsten crucibles. It is in the Kyropoulos process that our pressed-sintered crucibles show their strengths to best effect. They are repeatedly heated to more than 2 000 °C (3632 °F) and then cooled down again. This process, which would cause fissures and distortions in other materials, is not a problem for our tungsten and molybdenum products.

With our many years of experience in the field of powder metallurgy, we produce crucibles of a particularly high density and purity. By correctly filling the mold used for the crucible and carefully controlling the temperature distribution during sintering, we achieve uniform wall and base thicknesses - an important prerequisite in achieving the high level of creep resistance that characterizes our crucibles.
