Kiln furniture refers to refractory (refractory) and engineering ceramic components that are used as kiln equipment and generally to hold ceramic and refractory products during firing in the kiln.
The conditions governing the kiln furniture components are such that these components must have the necessary refractory properties depending on the application temperature and be resistant to deformation and thermal shock due to repeated heating and cooling cycles.
These parts have a wide variety of shapes and include simple to complex shapes such as refractory base, refractory ingot, refractory profile, refractory shoe and various types of refractory plates. Various compositions based on Cordierite Mullite and Silicon Carbide or SiC and Alumina plates are used to manufacture these products.
If high thermal transfer and optimum strength at high temperatures are required, as well as prevention of peeling.(Spalling Resistance)
And most importantly, resistance to thermal shock, refractory furnace plates are used in the arrangement of furnace carriages.
