    Kiln Furniture for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) Production 

    Do your plates retain their shape and purity when firing solid oxide fuel cells?


    Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Kiln Furniture (Energy)When firing at high temperatures, the material flatness, purity, thermal, and creep resistance properties of your kiln furniture remain critical to produce a consistent product. Saint-Gobain offers highly tailored materials for the production of solid oxide fuel cells.

    As an industry leader in the development of innovative refractory materials, Saint-Gobain produces low-mass kiln furniture and plates that are thinner, lighter and significantly stronger than traditional kiln furniture. 

     

    Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Schematic

    Developed to meet the demand for improved energy efficiencies in high temperature applications, LO-MASS® systems from Saint-Gobain minimize mass while maximizing strength, resulting in greater kiln capacity and reduced firing cycles. The uniform heat distribution also produces a more consistent product.

    Plates made from Crystar® recrystallized silicon carbide or silicon carbide with oxide coatings offer high strength and creep resistance, as well as flexible shaping capabilities.

    When higher purity is required, the Alundum® and Alundex®  alumina, mullite, zirconia product portfolio offers high strength, creep resistance, chemical compatibility and controlled porosity. 

    LO-MASS® components increase productivity while reducing energy consumption.


    In addition to offering increased strength and output, LO-MASS® components provide the sustainability every company wants. Saint-Gobain is the industry leader in the development of silicon carbide materials, which are resistant to oxidation at higher temperatures.

    Saint-Gobain engineers provide a proprietary KilnWorks® customized software analysis to design and develop kiln furniture that is ideal for your application.

     Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Kiln Furniture (Energy)


     

    Features and Benefits

    The Choice is Clear.


    LO-MASS® kiln furniture components are the obvious choice.

    • Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Kiln Furniture (Energy)Sustainable and energy-efficient: Reduced cycle times from LO-MASS® components result in significant energy savings.

     

    • Long-lasting productivity: LO-MASS® components are built to last through numerous kiln cycles, while offering reduced thermal mass and cycle times. Silicon carbide components are thinner, lighter and stronger than traditional kiln furniture, with excellent oxidation resistance and shape retention for longer service life.

     

    • Adaptable: LO-MASS® components are customizable and flexible to meet any configuration. Saint-Gobain has pioneered many SiC materials to suit a variety of applications.
