Pre-Melted Materials Product Sheet (PDF format)

Rounding out our comprehensive line of thin film products, CERAC now offers a series of pre-melted refractory oxide materials that are ready for immediate use in your evaporation process. These melted materials offer reduced outgassing and spitting, allow for longer coating runs due to the increased density over sintered materials, and deliver cost savings by reducing overall cycle times for customers.

By utilizing a custom long-throw, high power e-beam furnace, CERAC is able to produce melted parts made from our own starting materials. Field support provided by CERAC's Advanced Technology Group offers additional value to customers with specific product or application questions.

Cones, rods discs and pieces are manufactured for all e-beam coating platforms, customized to fit any individual pocket or crucible.
