Fused Silica: High-Performance Material for Industrial Excellence

Morgan Technical Ceramics’ Haldenwanger fused silica material consists of sintered quartz glass high purity powder with a fine pore structure which has an extremely low expansion coefficient and thus a very good thermal shock resistance. Making it the ideal choice for demanding industrial applications that require precision, reliability and thermal stability.

Fused Silica Applications:

• HalRoller™-FS for glass tempering and metal annealing
  • Ensures smooth and precise movement of glass in tempering and metal in hot stamping furnaces
  • Conveyor rollers for tempered safety glass for architectural and metal parts for automotive and other industrial applications
• HalLock™ end cap fastening technology
  • Eliminates chemical outgassing
  • Provides a sustainable alternative to traditional adhesives
• HalCoat™ Si₃N₄: hot stamping sheet metals
  • Highly effective aluminium melt-repellent properties
  • Minimises slag build-up from dripping melt
  • Extended service life for metal processing
• Insulation parts used widely in furnaces for solar and PDP (plasma display panel), LCD (liquid crystal display) industries
• Crucibles for polycrystalline silicon melting

Fused Silica Key Features and Benefits:

• High mechanical strength and toughness at elevated temperatures, to give a longer life without any surface deformation than fibre reinforced composite materials
• Low thermal expansion under extreme temperature fluctuations which provides outstanding resistance to thermal shock
• High purity, providing superior chemical resistance and minimal contamination in sensitive environments
• These properties make our fused silica the best material for use in our fused silica rollers and HalFoam – fibre free ceramic foams for use in a variety of industrial applications
