Forsterite is a stoichiometric magnesium orthosilicate (Mg2SiO4) utilized for applications requiring a high coefficient of thermal expansion. Forsterite has desirable electrical insulation properties and it is used as a layer on transformer steel sheets. The layer is formed by the reaction of magnesium oxide with the silicon additions of the steel during annealing. Forsterite is also used in bulk form to fabricate insulators. Products & Services
Oxide ceramics include alumina, zirconia, silica, aluminum silicate, magnesia and other metal oxide based materials.
Ceramic insulation and textiles are fibrous refractories or thermal insulation products that consist of ceramic fibers in bulk, cloth, batting, paper or rope forms.
Ceramic powders and precursors contain oxides, carbides, nitrides, carbon, and other non-metals. They are usually micron or mesh-size in distribution. Ceramic powders, sol-gel solutions and precursors are fabricated through atomization, crushing, milling, precipitation, and other chemical processes.
Specialty materials includes specialty or proprietary materials that are not part of other areas.
Specialty ceramics include nitrides, borides, carbon or graphite and silicides as well as other specialized non-metallic compounds.
