Abstract
This paper describes ‘Nucerite’, a new material of construction consisting of a ceramic-metal composite which has improved mechanical strength and abrasion resistance over glassed steel. A wide range of ceramics is available and these can be bonded to a range of base metals, thus giving a very wide choice of properties.
An outline of the induced crystalline structure in the ceramic shows how Nucerite is suitable for high temperature use together with good corrosion resistance. The application of Nucerite in the chemical and related industries shows how its versatility can be used to solve high temperature, corrosion, and abrasion problems.
Examples of items of equipment, together with the conditions under which they are being used, confirms that there is a big future for Nucerite as it is developed and its properties are improved even further.
