ZIRCOAT - The versatile refractory coat with a many faceted role

The Making of Zircoat

Jyoti Ceramic Industries, introduces Zircoat, a newly developed Zirconia-rich, high temperature, erosion/corrusion resistant ceramic refractory coating compound.

Looking at the acute need of industries for a suitable refractory coating compound, which can withstand high temperatures and also control erosion/corrusion of refractory linings, monolithics, ceramic fibre boards, modules and steel shells, we initiated a project to develop a suitable refractory coating compound with the required features.

After long years of efforts, we succeeded in developing Zircoat, a special refractory coating compound with high percentage of Zirconia in its residual.

Zircoat seals the cracks developed on the inside walls of combustion chambers and prevents loss of hot gases escaping through them; thus conserving fuel energy loss which experts conservatively estimate at around 33%. We have vigorously tested Zircoat at 1300 to 1780 °C, in high temperature, electric, gas-fired kilns and found its performance extremely satisfactory. Zircoat considerably prolongs the life of refractories and steel shells of high-low temperature kilns.

Zircoat is the outcome of the untiring efforts put in by our scientists and technicians, backed by a stae-of-the-art R&D laboratory.

Zircoat marks the development of a unique refractory coating compound, which will prove greatly beneficial to the industries where erosion/corrosion is a severe and chronic problem for refractories and kiln steel shells.
