Main features

Keralpor 99

Setter / kiln furniture

KERAFOL® manufactures sintering aids for high-quality customer products with high demands on geometry and material quality. KERAFOL® ceramic sheets are manufactured exclusively using the foil casting process. The ceramic sheets therefore have a homogeneous particle distribution within the sintering base matrix. For this reason, the pore distribution and pore size are also homogeneously distributed across the entire ceramic sheet. KERAFOL® sintering aids are therefore ideally suited as sintering underlays for the heat treatment of components for MIM, CIM, dental ceramics, PZT or SOFC ceramic production.

Thin and thick film substrates

Thin-film technology

Conductor tracks that are produced using thin-film technology have layer thicknesses ranging from a few nanometers (monolayer) to several micrometers.
Electronic semiconductor components and special platinum temperature sensors (Pt 100, Pt 1000, etc.) are the most important applications in the field of thin-film technology.
The average thickness of the conductor tracks is approx. 1 µm.
The conductor tracks for thin-film substrates are applied at approx. 1200°C using the PVD process or sputtering.
The substrates for thin-film technology are therefore subject to stringent requirements in terms of the surface quality and grain structure of the ceramic.

Thick film technology

Thick-film technology is used to build electronic components such as sensors or integrated hybrid circuits using LTCC or HTCC technology.

The electrical conductors for thick-film coating technology are applied to the film or substrate material using a screen printing process.

Wear protection ceramics

KERAFOL® offers a special and thin ceramic substrate for wear protection applications.
Due to its excellent frictional properties, the material is characterized by high wear resistance and very good sliding properties. It is mainly used for applications where metal and plastic are overloaded and the surface area and weight of the protected section are limited.
