Three generations of sic refractories

Thanks to its incredible oxidation resistance, CRYSTON – Cu® delivers unmatched performance in non-ferrous applications

Refractory materials fail primarily by oxidation, which causes swelling (volume increase). Notice the steep growth curve of an older material. This means early failure. Now see the stability of Cryston® Max
