Nowadays the industrial valves used widely in all kinds of fields are metal valves. even though the metal valve has a history with husbands of years and its structure and material is improved constantly, this valve now can't satisfy the requirement of high abrasion-proofness and high corrosion-proofness owing to the restriction of the metal material's own property.Anix USA

The current industrial valves are short in usage life and also have a great negative impact on the stability of the machine operation. It is urgent to totally innovate the standard metal valve from the aspects of material, design and manufacturing process. As the new material in the 21st century, the advanced ceramics is valued by more and more scientists. The scientists think that it will be a beneficial innovation to utilize the ceramics into industrial valve.

A ceramic material is usually understood as on a inorganic crystalline oxide material. It is solid and inert. Besides, in the normal situation, the crystal ions that are made of the ceramics possess a short radius but have a higher electrical valence and a great coordination number. Because of those properties, ceramic materials are brittle, hard, strong in compression, weak in shearing and tension. They withstand chemical erosion that develops in other materials put through acidic or caustic environment. Meanwhile, ceramics generally can withstand very good temperatures such as temperatures that range between 1,000 °C to 1,600 °C (1,800 °F to 3,000 °F). As for the brittle property of the ceramics, it indeed will limit the product range of application. However, lately, due to the development of Martensitic Transformation in Zirconia Toughened Ceramics, composite technology and nanotechnology, the brittle property has been greatly improved. Therefore, this property can't hinder the ceramics to be applied into different industries, such as petroleum, chemical and mechanical.Anix USA

You will see great economic benefits when the ceramics is applied in to the industrial valve. The advantages is going to be described in these content. Firstly, the wearing resistance, corrosion-proofness and leak-proofness is going to be improved. thereby, the usage life of the industrial valve is going to be lengthened greatly. Secondly, the chances for maintenance of the valve is going to be reduced.

To some degree, the machine operation is going to be safer and more stable. Meanwhile, the cost for maintenance is going to be saved a lot. Thirdly, the ceramic valve can improve the leak-proofness of the industrial pipeline and prevent the utmost leak. For this point, it is very positive to advertise environment protection. Last however, not least, the raw material for ceramics is really low in cost and extensive in range. As an example, the normal raw material such as Aluminum, carbon can produce the ceramics with excellent natures. Overall, that the ceramics is applied in to the production of industrial valves is really a developmental trend in the future.
