Aluminum Titanate (Al2TiO5)
The special property of aluminium titanate (Al2TiO5) is its very good thermal shock resistance.Components made from this material can withstand even abrupt temperature changes of several hundred degrees without damage, even though they have low strength.
The good thermal shock resistance results from the very low thermal expansion and a certain porosity in the structure. The low wettability of this ceramic material with molten metals also makes it ideal for use in foundry technology and metallurgical melting. In the future, aluminium titanate could play a greater role in automotive and energy technology, for example for exhaust gas aftertreatment and thermal insulation of fuel cell components.
Aluminium Titanate Products
We mainly produce riser tubes for low-pressure die casting and dosing tubes for dosing furnaces from aluminium titanate. We also manufacture various components for controlling the flow of molten metal, such as slide plates, plugs and closure plates.
Our range also includes mould inserts and connecting elements, such as nozzles and bushes. Break rings for continuous casting and insulating rings round off our product range.
