INERT CATALYST SUPPORT CERAMIC BALLS
Inert Catalyst Support Ceramic Balls
Ceramic Balls is our inhouse premium grade inert ceramic support media allowing them to be used in applications having operating temperatures of upto 1200 o C . The high quality of our ceramic balls allows your catalyst to achieve optimum performance and an extended life.
Ceramic balls give excellent thermal shock resistance which is hard to come by for ceramic balls in general. They are free from impurities and have a leachable iron of less than 0.1%. Our products are carefully manufactured with extensive quality control at every stage of production to prevent our balls from chips, split, spalls, cracks or dust.
Ceramic Balls are vastly used in Petroleum, Petrochemical, Fertilizer Industries & Industrial Gas Industries.
