MgO Ceramic Crucible
Made from high-purity magnesium oxide (MgO) through precision forming and high-temperature sintering, Meetcera MgO crucibles feature a fully fired, high-density, fine-grained microstructure. They are ideal for ultra-high temperature processing of metals, slags, and superconductor compounds. MgO ceramics provide a superior alternative to alumina crucibles due to their better chemical resistance and inertness, especially in alkaline or extreme-temperature environments.
Key Features & Benefits
- Ultra-High Temperature Resistance: Maximum service temperature up to 1800°C
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Highly resistant to alkaline melts, metal slags, precious metals, and radioactive materials; chemically inert
- High Purity: MgO content 99%, minimizing sample contamination
- High-Density Microstructure: Fully fired for low porosity and superior durability
- Strong Thermal Stability: Excellent thermal shock resistance and uniform heating
- Superior Electrical Insulation: High volume resistivity at elevated temperatures
Available Shapes：
Conical and arc, cylindrical, oval, square and rectangular shapes, plus many special shapes. Capacities range from 5 ml to 2000 ml. Larger capacities and irregular shapes are available upon request.
Main Applications：
- Ultra-high temperature melting of metals, slags, and superconductor compounds
- Metalworking and molten glass
- Precious metals melting (platinum, rhodium, iridium, etc.)
- Non-ferrous metals & alloys (copper, aluminum, zinc, nickel, etc.)
- Gemstone purification in the jewelry industry
- High-temperature chemical experiments, rapid thermal cycling, molten salt electrolysis
- Semiconductor, electronics, vacuum furnace processes, and laboratory analysis
Usage Notes：
Most applications such as metalworking, molten glass, rapid thermal cycling, and gemstone purification require impermeable ceramics. Porous forms can also be produced to order.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to strong acids
- Heat and cool gradually to maximize service life
- Allow natural cooling after use; avoid sudden thermal shock
