PowerCeram™ Saggers

Pushing the limits of durability.

Saint-Gobain’s PowerCeram saggers for cathode active material (CAM) processing bring unique benefits to cathode powder producers by enabling increased throughput, improved energy efficiency, and reduced waste generation through its unique design and material properties relative to standard products.

About the product

Made from high-strength silicon carbide, PowerCeram™ saggers enhance revenue while reducing energy consumption and waste. Their thinner walls make them lighter than traditional mullite, cordierite, and alumina saggers, without compromising durability. The innovative design and optimized geometry provide exceptional chemical corrosion resistance and improved thermal shock resistance, extending cycle life and ensuring process stability. Additionally, their lids are engineered for superior thermal performance, minimizing contamination from external impurities.
