Series Start: The Power of Small Carbon Furnaces

Explaining the capabilities of small carbon furnaces from a practical perspective! We will also introduce challenges and benefits.

"While the temperature can be achieved, the targeted reaction site cannot be created." We will overcome that barrier with a small carbon furnace. In this series, we will explain the capabilities of a small carbon furnace that can handle ultra-low oxygen atmospheres (O2 ppm level) and ultra-high temperatures (2,000-3,000°C range) with high reproducibility from a practical perspective. Do you have these challenges? ■ Heating is possible, but characteristics fluctuate with slight oxygen contamination. ■ Large furnaces have slow ramp-up times, making it difficult to establish conditions. ■ Temperature unevenness and undercooking lead to instability in crystallinity and pore structure. Benefits of miniaturization × ultra-low O2 × ultra-high temperature: ■ Reach target conditions in a short time → Increase the number of trials per day. ■ Ensure uniform heating even with small samples → Improved reproducibility. ■ Balance oxygen management and thermal history → Achieve desired crystallinity, conductivity, and microstructure. In this series, we will sequentially introduce the development background, heating principles, application-specific know-how, safety design, specifications & expansions, mini case studies, and FAQs. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
