Polycrystalline mullite fibers and alumina fibers are widely used in the sintering of zirconia products in dental prosthetics furnaces. This article will provide a detailed overview of the design and application of lining materials in dental sintering furnaces.


The primary role of polycrystalline mullite fibers and alumina fibers in dental sintering furnaces is for thermal insulation and heat preservation. They effectively reduce heat loss within the furnace, thus enhancing the energy efficiency and overall performance of the sintering process. Furthermore, these fibers also help in reducing thermal stress within the furnace, ultimately extending its lifespan. Polycrystalline mullite fibers are suitable for prolonged use at temperatures up to 1450 degrees Celsius, while alumina fibers can withstand temperatures up to 1650 degrees Celsius.


Moreover, these fibers aid in maintaining uniform temperatures within the furnace, ensuring the quality and stability of the dental sintering process. Therefore, the utilization of polycrystalline mullite fibers and alumina fibers plays a vital role in the sintering of dental prosthetics, contributing significantly to its success and efficiency.
