Molybdenum Disilicide Heater Rods High Temperature U W L

Electric Mosi2 Muffle Furnace

Molybdenum Disilicide Heater Rods Application:

SUPER 1700, 1800, 1900 MoSi2 electric mosi2 heater for muffle furnace are extensively used in the industries of metallurgy, glass, ceramic refractory,crystal electronic device, industrial furnace manufacture, etc.. It is an essential ideal element when the products are sintering in the high temperature.

Attention: MoSi2 elements can not be used in 400 to 700 °C for a long time, otherwise, it will be powered and damaged due to strong oxidizing action in low temperature.

Molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) is a refractory metal silicide that is primarily used as a heating element. In recent years, its potential for use as a structural ceramic has been recognised, as the material combines excellent oxidation resistance and high elastic modulus at elevated temperatures.

Molybdenum Disilicide Heater for electronics

1) Vertically hanging

Under normal temperature, MoSi2 heater is very brittleness, while under high temperature, it is plasticity, so the better way to install U Shape element is to hang it vertically from the furnace top through the support clamping chuck. The aim of such way is to avoid putting the mechanical stress directly to the element heat-generating end; otherwise the element will easily be broken.

2) Support clamp

Support clamp are applied to 9/18 and 6/12 two kinds of elements respectively. The support clamp supports the whole weight of the element and the position of the element is also determined by it, therefore, it must be installed carefully to assure the element vertically hung. In order to prevent the element from being over heated locally, the taper part of the element lower end must put into the furnace chamber.

Physcial property of molybdenum disilicide heater:

MoSi2 heater use and maintenance

1. MoSi2 heater belong to Metal ceramic material. They are hard, crisp and low impact strength at room temperature .Therefore to be careful to avoid damage during transport and installation.

2. When MoSi2 heater continuously operate in an oxidation atmosphere, the surface temperature of 1700 type should not exceed 1700 ° C,1800-type should not over 1800 ℃ and for intermittent use,1700 type-element should not over 1650 ° C,1800type-element cannot exceed 1750 ℃.

Furnace dryness

New or old furnace not used for a long time needs to be dried before using. Generally, the drying temperature is 100-200℃.

However, if the element is used for a long time under the low temperature, it will cause the low-temperature oxidation.

For little furnace, the drying time is short, the influence of several drying hours is little, but for large furnace, which need to be dried for a long time, you had better open the furnace door to ventilate well. you can open the furnace door ajar with the temperature increment and completely close until the temperature reach 1000℃ above.
