En Ceratem, diseñamos y fabricamos toberas, quemadores y componentes en carburo de silicio (SiC) y nitruro de silicio (Si₃N₄), materiales esenciales para aplicaciones en hornos industriales eléctricos y de gas.
At Ceratem, we design and manufacture nozzles, burners, and components made of silicon carbide (SiC) and silicon nitride (Si₃N₄)—essential materials for applications in electric and gas industrial furnaces.
Silicon carbide, available in its various forms (SiC, SiSiC, RSiC), is a material with exceptional hardness, close to that of diamond. Its thermal resistance and structural stability make it an ideal choice for high-temperature and abrasive environments. Its low thermal expansion and high conductivity make it indispensable in combustion, convection, and radiation systems.
Silicon nitride, on the other hand, is renowned for its high resistance to thermal shock, making it the optimal material for manufacturing thermocouple protection tubes and components exposed to sudden temperature changes. Its structural stability and mechanical strength make it a key material in demanding industrial applications.
These materials offer extreme resistance to high temperatures, exceptional hardness and abrasion durability, along with outstanding chemical and thermal stability. Their low thermal expansion and ability to maintain performance under extreme conditions make them fundamental in industrial settings. Additionally, silicon carbide presents semiconductor properties, making it attractive for specific high-temperature electronics applications.
Carbide and nitride materials have applications in industrial sectors such as metallurgy—where they are used in refractory parts and components for combustion and radiant furnaces—and the glass and ceramics industries, where they serve in the production of supports and rollers for high-temperature kilns. They are also essential in the energy industry, in the development of components for electric and gas furnaces, as well as in the electronics industry, where silicon carbide is used as a semiconductor material in high-temperature applications.
At Ceratem, we offer comprehensive solutions with a wide range of products, from bars and rollers to supports and custom-made parts, ensuring high-performance materials tailored to the needs of each process. Our focus on innovation and quality allows us to provide products that enhance performance and efficiency in demanding industrial environments.
