Inert ceramic ballsupport Mediaare the most widely used support media in the world because of their excellent consistence and reliability. Products to these specifications are manufactured from very high quality chemical-porcelain clay materials, which has quite excellent stability, high mechanical strength and resistance to thermal shock, This makes them all ideal choice for support of all types of catalyst.Chemical compostionfor 17% alumina ceramic ball:Al2O3+SiO2Al2O3Fe2O3MgOK2O+Na2O +CaOOther> 93%17-19%<1%<0.5%<4%<1%Leach able Fe2O3 is less than 0.1%Chemical compositionfor 23% alumina ceramic ball:Al2O3+SiO2Al2O3SiO2Fe2O3MgOK2O+Na2O+CaOOther> 92%23-26%68-73%<1%<2.5%<4%<0.5%Leach able Fe2O3 is less than 0.1%Physical properties:ItemValueWater absorption (%)<0.5Bulk density (g/cm3)1.35-1.4Specific gravity (g/cm3)2.3-2.4Free volume (%)40Operation temp.(max) (ºC)1100Moh's hardness (scale)>6.5Acid resistance (%)>99.6Alkali resistance (%)>85
