Nitride bonded silicon carbide (NBSiC) is widely used for thermocouple protection tubes because of its excellent mechanical and thermal properties. The nitridation process creates a strong silicon nitride bonding phase within the silicon carbide structure, resulting in a highly durable ceramic material.
Key properties include:
These properties make NBSiC an ideal material for thermocouple protection in aluminium melting and high-temperature industrial furnaces.
Accurate temperature monitoring is essential in aluminium die casting plants to ensure consistent metal quality and process control. Thermocouple protection tubes shield the temperature sensors from direct exposure to molten metal, flame, and corrosive gases.
In fuel-fired aluminium melting furnaces, thermocouple tubes must withstand:
