Alumina Ceramic Lining
First, alumina ceramic linings have many excellent properties and characteristics:
Rockwell hardness is HRA80-90, the hardness is second only to diamond, far exceeding the wear resistance of wear-resistant steel and stainless steel.
The wear resistance is equivalent to 266 times that of manganese steel and 171.5 times that of high-chromium cast iron.
The density is 3.5g/cm3, which is only half of that of steel, which can greatly reduce the equipment load.
Radiation is an obstacle to the development of nuclear energy in the current industrial society. And the alumina ceramic lining layer, he can withstand the corrosion of liquid metal.
Not only can it withstand high doses of radiation, but as the radiation gets stronger, it has the potential to play a huge role in fusion reactors.
There are two types of nuclear reactors: fission reactors and fusion reactors.
Currently, only controlled fission reactors are used for commercial power generation. Fusion reactors require temperatures and densities inside the sun, which are difficult to achieve.
A fusion reaction is essentially the synthesis of two light nuclei (usually hydrogen isotopes) into a heavy nucleus, which releases more energy than a fission reaction.
Fusion, as a clean and renewable energy source, has this very attractive application prospect.
