What is a ceramic valve?

 What is a ceramic valve?

In some complex, harsh and even extreme working conditions, traditional metal valves have been unable to break through the limits of their materials and cannot meet the design requirements of special working conditions. Therefore, it is an inevitable choice to introduce new ceramic materials into the traditional valve industry .
New ceramics, also known as advanced ceramics, fine ceramics, etc., include structural ( or engineering) ceramics and functional ceramics, which have different special properties and functions due to different chemical components and crystal structures.

Compared with metal materials, ceramics not only have excellent heat resistance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, but also have excellent physical properties as high temperature structural materials. Because of these excellent properties, it can be effectively applied in valve manufacturing. It can be used in harsh environments that metal materials cannot adapt to and can greatly extend the service life of the valve. On the other hand, ceramics have poor brittleness and thermal shock resistance, and there are also unsafe factors for use as structural materials.

Advantages of ceramic valves    

Metal valves are limited by the conditions of metal materials themselves, so it is difficult to meet the needs of harsh working conditions such as high wear and strong corrosion. It is mainly reflected in the short service life and serious leakage, which greatly affects the stability of the system operation. Traditional metal valves are in urgent need of a complete innovation in terms of materials, design and manufacturing processes. Wear-resistant ceramic valves made of special ceramic materials are mainly used in electric power, petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, mining, sewage treatment and other industrial fields, especially in the face of high wear, strong corrosion, high temperature, high pressure and other harsh working conditions. Its excellent performance. It can meet the use environment of high wear and strong corrosion, especially the outstanding feature is the long service life, and its cost performance is far better than other similar metal valves. Ceramic valves are more and more recognized by the industry for their excellent performance. Compared with metal valves, ceramic valves have the following advantages.

①Extend the service life : The sealing parts and vulnerable parts of the valve are made of high-tech new ceramic structural materials, which improves the wear resistance, corrosion resistance and sealing performance of the valve products, and greatly extend the service life of the valve.

②Reduce the amount of maintenance : The use of ceramic valves can greatly reduce the number of valve maintenance and replacement, improve the safety and stability of the operating system of the supporting equipment, reduce the labor intensity of workers, and save equipment repair costs.

③Promote environmental protection : The use of ceramic valves improves the sealing performance of industrial pipelines, and at the same time, it can prevent leakage to the greatest extent, and play a positive role in promoting environmental protection.

④ Low cost of raw materials : The raw materials for making ceramics are extensive and low-cost, and ordinary elements such as aluminum, carbon, and silicon can be used to produce ceramic materials with superior performance, which can save a lot of metal materials and rare mineral resources.
