SIC Foam Filter

SIC Ceramic Foam Filter is insulating oxide ceramics that are thermally conductive. These ceramic foam filters are ideal for use in the casting process of ductile iron, layered iron, malleable iron and all other high and low alloy cast-iron types. Using the unique formula and manufacturing process, SIC ceramic foam filters have the excellent thermal shock, chemical and high temperature resistance up to 1500°C. As the most advanced filter type with the higher filtration efficiency, It can effectively reduce inclusions and turbulence of molten metal, ensuring purified molten metal goes into the mould cavity with improved flow rates.

Main Functions:

● Purify metal molten liquid

● Simplify pouring system

● Improve the casting metallographic structure

● Reduce inclusions in castings

● Reduce the reoxidation defects of castings internal

● Reduce surface defects of castings after machining

● Improve casting qualification rate

SIC Ceramic Foam Filters are typically made by molding or sintering the silicon carbide particles into the desired shape and then infiltrating the pores with a polymer binder to give the foam its structural integrity. The pores of the foam can be adjusted by controlling the manufacturing process, allowing the filter to be tailored to specific filtration needs. SIC foam filters are durable and have a long service life, making them a cost-effective choice for many filtration applications. 

How long does the SIC Ceramic Foam Filter last?

The lifespan of a SIC Ceramic Foam Filter will depend on a variety of factors, including the specific application it is used in, the type of contaminant it is filtering, and the operating conditions of the filtration system. In general, SIC foam filters are known for their durability and long service life, and they can typically be used for extended periods of time without needing to be replaced.

To ensure the maximum service life of a SIC Ceramic Foam Filter, it is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for use and maintenance. This may include regular cleaning and maintaining the filter to remove accumulated contaminants, as well as replacing the filter when it becomes damaged or worn. Additionally, it is important to use the filter in a manner that is consistent with its intended design and operating parameters, as using the filter outside of its specified range may reduce its service life.
