HIGH PURITY POROUS CORDIERITE CERAMIC

POROUS CORDIERITE CERAMIC DISC

HIGH PURITY POROUS CORDIERITE CERAMIC 

Made from the high purity mineral Mg₂Al₄Si₅O₁₈ which is also 2MgO·2Al₂O₃·5SiO₂, a magnesium alumino-silicate. 

This material is an extremely lightweight material with low thermal expansion and excellent strength, rigidity and thermal shock resistance; and has very good corrosion resistance to chemicals at high temperature, and high use temperature. It may be used for a variety of electrical, mechanical, and thermal applications
