Zirconia Ceramic Foam Filters are used for filtration of all types of steel like unalloyed, low alloyed, stainless and high-alloyed. Filters are recommended especially for high quality grades of alloys.
With their excellent resistance to attack and corrosion from molten steel liquid, they can effectively remove inclusions, reduce trapped gas from liquid metal and provide laminar flow, and then the filtered metal is significantly cleaner.
Cleaner metal results in higher-quality castings, less scrap, and fewer inclusion defects. They are the best choice for filtering of determined for filtering of steel and steel alloys up to the temperature of 1700℃.
Parameter
Zirconia ceramic foam filters are used to melt all types of steel such as non-alloy, low alloy, stainless steel and high alloy.
The basic material of zirconia ceramic foam filter is ZrO2. The heat resistance temperature higher than about 1760℃, and it has very high strength and excellent high-temperature impact resistance.
Cast steel parts are widely used in aspects that require high strength and elongation requirements. Therefore, cast steel parts are very sensitive to defects caused by impurities.
Zirconia ceramic foam filters have good resistance to attack and corrosion of liquid steel, can effectively remove inclusions in liquid metal, reduce trapped gas in liquid metal, and provide laminar flow, so that the filtered metal is significantly clean.
Cleaner metals lead to higher quality castings, less scrap and fewer inclusion defects. They are the best choice for filtering of determined for filtering of steel and steel alloys up to the temperature of 1700℃.
Filters are especially recommended for alloys of high quality grades.

The excellent characteristics of zirconia ceramic foam filter can effectively remove impurities that ultimately lead to product quality defects.
The impurities mainly consist of non-metallic particles, slag, and refractory material fragments. It improves the surface quality and mechanical properties of the casting parts, reduces the scrap rate.
Zirconia ceramic foam filter can make the molten steel fill the cavity more uniformly. During pouring, the molten metal has a higher tendency for turbulence, and the turbulence after passing through the three-dimensional pore structure of the zirconia foam ceramic filter is ultimately converted into a very stable laminar flow. The laminar flow has better filling properties for the cavity, thereby reducing the impact and corrosion of the molten metal solution on the casting cavity and significantly reducing the scrap rate.
