Chemistry and Process Engineering

Due in particular to their chemical resistance, corrosion resistance, and high temperature stability, ceramic components occupy key roles across a wide range of applications in chemical and process engineering.

Overview: Chemical and Process Engineering

Laboratory-Pots Al₂O₃

The extrem high temperature, chemical, alkali and corrosive resistance of high-purity aluminum oxide makes this material predestined to be used for laboratory equipement like pots, zylinders or retort boxes, especially then, when aggressive materials like bases are in use.

Porous ceramics

In general, a pore in ceramic material is considered as defective spot. However, in the form of filters or membranes, porous ceramics are particularly used in a variety of applications in chemistry, pharmacy and process technology, as well as in analytical applications.. Foamed, pressed or extruded components are, however, limited in terms of the geometric shape.

Using a newly developed compound and the corresponding processing technology, Kläger now offers components with a “porous” property profile produced by injection molding, enabling true three-dimensional component geometries.

Aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) is chemically resistant, thermally stable, biocompatible, corrosion-free, and can be cleaned using standard processes. Using the CIM manufacturing process, Kläger offers high three-dimensional design freedom and, newly, a variable adjustable porosity.

Sputtering masks

Cover masks, sputtering masks, coating masks, …
Masks made of technical ceramics provide reliable and durable protection.

High temperature stable, corrosion-free, chemically resistant, non-magnetic, and electrically insulating. Depending on the process, technical ceramic masks are used to partially protect the component to be coated or processed. High temperature stable, corrosion-free, chemically resistant, non-magnetic, and electrically insulating. Depending on the process, technical ceramic masks are used to partially protect the component to be coated or processed. In addition to reproducing very delicate structures, such as variable holes, blind holes, ribs, or domes, the production process also ensures the high flatness required for the application of the injection molded components.
