Typical application
The void-free electrofused zirconia with high electrical resistivity, MONOFRAX® ZHR Epic-3 solution is used for glass-contact.
It achieves a high electrical resistivity while providing low blister and stoning potential.
Typically used for electrode blocks, paving and sidewall for electric melting of specialty glasses.
