The extreme conditions found in non-ferrous (NF) molten metal applications demand specialized materials. CeramTec’s advanced ceramic material aluminum titanate (ATI, ALUTIT, Al2TiO5) effortlessly masters challenging conditions such as aggressive melting, maximum temperatures of 900 °C and temperature differences of several hundred degrees. Conventional materials simply can’t take the heat under these challenging conditions.

Aluminum titanate is a ceramic material that cannot be wetted by liquid aluminum and is also known for its excellent resistance to thermal shock. This makes ALUTIT the ideal choice for use in aluminum foundries. Its low thermal conductivity saves energy and its outstanding chemical a ...
