Abstract of Sapphire tubes
A sapphire tube is a transparent tubular material manufactured from high-purity monocrystalline sapphire (Al₂O₃) through precision processing. It combines exceptional optical, mechanical, and chemical performance. Its core features include ultra-high hardness (Mohs hardness of 9), extreme thermal resistance (operational stability up to 2000°C), corrosion resistance (stable in strong acids and alkalis), and broad-spectrum transparency (0.15–5.5 μm wavelength range). Sapphire tubes are widely utilized in advanced industries such as semiconductors, chemical engineering, optical instruments, and medical devices
1. High Transparency and Optical Performance
Sapphire tubes exhibit excellent light transmittance (0.15–5.5 μm) with minimal optical loss (<0.1–0.3 dB/cm), making them ideal for laser transmission, optical windows, and fiber optic connectors.
2. Extreme Environmental Durability
· Thermal Resistance: Sustained operational temperatures up to 1600–2000°C, with short-term tolerance up to 2050°C.
· Chemical Resistance: Superior to quartz in resisting acids, alkalis, fluorine, and plasma.
· Mechanical Strength: Compressive strength 4x higher than quartz, suitable for high-pressure reactors and precision instruments.
3. Dimensional Customization and Precision
· Customizable Sizes: Outer diameter (3–300 mm), inner diameter (0.8–25 mm), and length (up to 250 mm).
· Precision Machining: Utilizes CNC milling, diamond tools, and Edge-Defined Film-Fed Growth (EFG) methods to achieve concentricity errors <0.02 mm and surface roughness ≤Rz0.1.
1. Semiconductor and Electronics
Used in crystal growth furnaces, LED substrates, and high-voltage devices, replacing quartz to eliminate contamination and ensure production purity.
2. Energy and Chemical Engineering
· Petrochemical: Heavy oil reactors, high-temperature burners, and acid-resistant equipment.
· Hydrogen Energy: High-pressure hydrogen production conduits.
3. Optics and Medical Systems
· Laser Systems: UV lamp windows, laser transmission optics, and fiber couplers.
· Medical Devices: Endoscopes and laser surgical tools, leveraging biocompatibility and thermal stability.
4. Aerospace and Defense
Engine temperature monitoring systems, missile guidance components, and high-temperature pressure sensors.
