FAQS
Q1: What are the advantages of silicon carbide graphite crucibles compared to traditional graphite crucibles?
✅ Higher Temperature Resistance: Can withstand 1800°C long-term and 2200°C short-term (vs. ≤1600°C for graphite).
✅ Longer Lifespan: 5x better thermal shock resistance, 3-5x longer average service life.
✅ Zero Contamination: No carbon penetration, ensuring molten metal purity.
Q2: Which metals can be melted in these crucibles?
▸ Common Metals: Aluminum, copper, zinc, gold, silver, etc.
▸ Reactive Metals: Lithium, sodium, calcium (requires Si₃N₄ coating).
▸ Refractory Metals: Tungsten, molybdenum, titanium (requires vacuum/inert gas).
Q3: Do new crucibles require pre-treatment before use?
Mandatory Baking: Slowly heat to 300°C → hold for 2 hours (removes residual moisture).
First Melt Recommendation: Melt a batch of scrap material first (forms a protective layer).
Q4: How to prevent crucible cracking?
Never charge cold material into a hot crucible (max ΔT < 400°C).
Cooling rate after melting < 200°C/hour.
Use dedicated crucible tongs (avoid mechanical impact).
Q5: How to prevent crucible cracking?
Never charge cold material into a hot crucible (max ΔT < 400°C).
Cooling rate after melting < 200°C/hour.
Use dedicated crucible tongs (avoid mechanical impact).
Q6: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
Standard Models: 1 piece (samples available).
Custom Designs: 10 pieces (CAD drawings required).
Q7: What is the lead time?
⏳ In-Stock Items: Ships within 48 hours.
⏳ Custom Orders: 15-25 days for production and 20 days for mould.
Q8: How to determine if a crucible has failed?
Cracks > 5mm on inner wall.
Metal penetration depth > 2mm.
Deformation > 3% (measure outer diameter change).
Q9: Do you provide melting process guidance?
Heating curves for different metals.
Inert gas flow rate calculator.
Slag removal video tutorials.
