Our Aluminium Titanate ceramics are expertly formulated to operate in harsh working conditions involving severe thermal cycling and exposure to corrosive molten metals. They demonstrate outstanding resistance to molten aluminum and copper, preventing wetting, erosion, and chemical degradation. As a result, components manufactured from Aluminium Titanate deliver superior durability, reduced maintenance requirements, and extended service life, helping customers minimize downtime and improve overall process efficiency.
In molten metal handling applications, Aluminium Titanate ceramics are widely used for riser tubes, nozzles, pouring cups, launders, and thermocouple protection sheaths. These components maintain structural integrity when repeatedly exposed to high-temperature molten metals, while also preventing contamination of the melt. Their ability to provide accurate and stable temperature measurement in molten aluminum, copper, and related alloys further enhances process control in foundry and metallurgical operations.
Within the automotive industry, Aluminium Titanate ceramics play a critical role in resistance welding and high-temperature assembly processes. Components such as welding pinch rolls and pads are essential for body-in-white assembly lines, where they must withstand intense localized heat and avoid reacting with zinc coatings on galvanized steel. In addition, Aluminium Titanate shows strong potential for use in selected engine components, including exhaust port liners and other parts requiring thermal insulation and high shock resistance.
Beyond metallurgical and automotive applications, Aluminium Titanate ceramics are also utilized in industrial and chemical processing environments. Typical uses include heat exchanger components exposed to rapid temperature changes, wear-resistant liners for high-temperature abrasive processes, and laboratory or instrumentation applications such as kiln furniture, setters, and trays. In all these applications, Aluminium Titanate ceramics provide reliable performance where minimal thermal expansion, chemical stability, and long service life are critical.

Aluminium Titanate ceramics exhibit outstanding resistance to wetting, erosion, and chemical degradation when exposed to molten metals such as aluminum and copper. Their ultra-low thermal expansion coefficient minimizes cracking during rapid temperature changes, making them ideal for continuous use in demanding foundry and metallurgical operations.
In foundry and metallurgical settings, Aluminium Titanate ceramics are commonly used for riser tubes, nozzles, pouring cups, launders, and thermocouple protection sheaths. These components ensure structural integrity and prevent melt contamination during repeated high-temperature exposure.
In the automotive sector, these ceramics are applied in resistance welding components such as welding pinch rolls and pads for body-in-white assembly lines. They withstand intense localized heat without reacting with zinc coatings on galvanized steel, and show strong potential for exhaust port liners and other engine parts requiring thermal insulation and shock resistance.
High-Purity Aluminium Titanate (Al₂O₃ 56%, TiO₂ 40%, Stabilizer 4%) offers ultra-low thermal expansion and excellent thermal shock resistance. The Corundum Aluminium Titanate Composite, which incorporates 30% Corundum, provides a higher operating temperature ceiling and improved high-temperature mechanical strength, making it suitable for more demanding structural applications.
Yes. Aluminium Titanate ceramics are well-suited for industrial and chemical processing applications, including heat exchanger components, wear-resistant liners for high-temperature abrasive processes, and laboratory equipment such as kiln furniture, setters, and trays. Their chemical stability and minimal thermal expansion ensure reliable long-term performance.
Due to their superior thermal shock resistance, molten metal resistance, and chemical stability, components made from Aluminium Titanate have a significantly extended service life compared to conventional materials. This reduces the frequency of part replacement and unplanned maintenance, directly lowering operational costs and minimizing production downtime.
