This grade is widely used for general catalyst bed support related to petroleum refining, petrochemicals, and natural gas.
Our standard ceramic balls are the most widely used.

Heat exchange media (high alumina balls) are used in harsh environments (rapid cooling/rapid heating) in industrial furnaces. Our high-alumina balls are widely used in Japan and overseas as fillers for petroleum refining and petrochemicals, and boast high quality with high-purity alumina (guaranteed value AL203: 99.3%, typical value: 99.7%).

This grade is used as a bed support for catalysts related to petrochemicals and natural gas, and as a diluent for catalysts in reaction towers. Due to its high porosity, it is expected to be effective in reducing pressure loss.

We offer this item to catalyst manufacturers as a catalyst carrier (intermediate material) for petrochemical and natural gas production. The main component of the item is an inert material of AL2O3 / SiO2. The surface of the carrier has crater-like pores so that the surface of the carrier is easily impregnated with catalytic metal etc. We have ball type, pipe type and dice type carriers. Also physical properties such as pores of the carrier surface crater (porosity, water absorption, etc.) can be adjustable. As another application, it is also used as a foreign substance filter in the oil refining process. It is a noteworthy item with a wide range of uses.
