High-temperature Applications

Wherever industry gets hot, heat-proof linings are required, including in metal production, foundries, power plant construction or waste incineration. Fireproof stones or concrete are used for this. To produce these, BASERMANN minerals delivers highly fireproof aluminum oxide-based raw materials.

These materials can sometimes be used as basic elements in the manufacture of high-quality ceramic components as well. We encounter these items numerous times on a daily basis, though this may not always be apparent. They are distinguished by their specific properties, such as high hardness, chemical resistance and electrical isolation. We also encounter ceramic raw materials in consumer products, such as flatware, sinks, tile flooring and oven tiles.
