Hāʻawi nā pōpō seramika i nā hiʻohiʻona hana koʻikoʻi no nā noi i ʻike ʻia i nā kemika koʻikoʻi a i ʻole nā kūlana me nā wela kiʻekiʻe loa. Ma nā noi e like me nā pamu kemika a me nā lāʻau drill, kahi i hāʻule ʻole nā mea kuʻuna, hāʻawi nā pōpō seramika i ke ola lōʻihi, hoʻemi ʻia ka ʻaʻahu, a i ʻae ʻia paha ka hana.
Ma muli o kona kūpaʻa ʻino a me nā hiʻohiʻona wela hana kiʻekiʻe, ʻo ka alumina oxide (AL2O3) kahi koho kaulana no nā pōpō seramika. Hoʻohana ka mea hana i nā pōpō alumina oxide e hoʻomaikaʻi i ka hana ʻana. Ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia i kā lākou mau mea kila, ʻoi aku ka māmā o nā pōpō alumina oxide, ʻoi aku ka māmā, ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī, ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī, ʻoi aku ka ʻoi aku o ka corrosion, koi ʻia ka liʻiliʻi o ka lubrication, a loaʻa ka hoʻonui haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa, e ʻae ana i ka bearing e hana i nā wikiwiki a me nā mahana hana me ka liʻiliʻi. Hoʻohana nui ʻia nā pōpō seramika alumina i ka ʻaila, kemika, fertilizer, kūlohelohe maoli, a me nā ʻoihana palekana kaiapuni ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻoikaika i ka reactor e uhi ana i nā mea kākoʻo a me nā hale kiaʻi.
He mea ikaika ia e hana maikaʻi ana ma nā wela a hiki i ka 1000°F (538°C) a hana maikaʻi i nā kūlana me nā metala hoʻoheheʻe ʻia, nā mea hoʻoheheʻe organika, nā caustics, a me ka hapa nui o nā waikawa. Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he pahu hoʻopaʻa no ka hoʻokele kahe ʻana ma muli o kona kūpaʻa maikaʻi loa i ka abrasion a me ka corrosion.
Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia nā pōpō seramika i hana ʻia me ka silicon nitride (Si3N4) i nā bearings no ka ikaika o ka wela a me ka haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa. Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia lākou i nā kula e pili ana i nā mea hana metala, nā turbines kinoea, nā ʻāpana ʻenehana automotive, nā bearings seramika piha, ka pūʻali koa a me ka pale, a me ka aerospace.
Ma nā noi e koi ana i ka hoʻololi kiʻekiʻe-kiʻekiʻe, hoʻohana nā pōpō seramika piha a me nā huila keramic hybrid i nā pōpō nitride silika. Loaʻa i ka nitride silikoni ka mānoanoa ma lalo o ka hapalua o ke kila, e hōʻemi ana i ka ikaika centrifugal i ka wā o ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka bearing, e hiki ai i ka wikiwiki o ka hana.
ʻAʻole hoʻoheheʻe ʻia lākou a kūpono i nā noi e like me nā bearings shaft kaʻa uila no nā kaʻa AC a me DC a me nā mea hana. Ke lilo koke nei nā bearings ball silicone nitride i ke kūlana ʻoihana i ka hana ʻana i nā kaʻa uila no nā kaʻa uila a me nā kaʻa ʻole.
ʻO ka maikaʻi non-magnetic o Silicon nitride ka mea kūpono loa no ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā noi e kū pono i kahi kahua magnetic. Hiki ke hoʻopilikia ʻia ke kahua mākēneki a i ʻole ka torque wili inā hoʻohana ʻia nā pōpō kila ma kekahi mau noi. Ma kahi e loaʻa ai nā māhina, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā bearing pōpō silicon nitride no ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā lako hana semiconductor a me nā lako hana diagnostic.
