Quartz crucible is a kind of container made of high purity quartz sand by arc method. It is widely used in many industries because of its high temperature resistance, good chemical stability and high purity. The following are the main application fields of quartz crucible and its specific uses.

Semiconductor industry

In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, quartz crucibles are key consumables for drawing single crystal silicon rods. Since single crystal silicon wafers have extremely high purity requirements (usually need to reach 99.99% or higher), quartz crucibles must ensure extremely high purity and thermal properties as containers for carrying polysilicon raw materials and melting at high temperatures. In addition, with the development of semiconductor technology, quartz crucibles are also evolving in the direction of large size to meet the needs of larger diameter silicon wafers.

Photovoltaic Industry

The photovoltaic industry also relies on high-quality quartz crucibles to produce monocrystalline silicon solar panels. Since the precision requirements of photovoltaic products are strict, the quality of quartz crucibles directly affects the efficiency and performance of the final product. In recent years, with the rapid growth of the photovoltaic market, the demand for quartz crucibles has also increased accordingly.

Chemical analysis and laboratory research

Quartz crucibles play an important role in chemical analysis and experiments in the fields of mineralogy, petrology, etc. They are used for heating, burning, ashing and melting operations of samples, ensuring the accuracy of chemical reactions and the precision of sample analysis. Particularly in experiments requiring high temperature stability, quartz crucibles perform well.

Metallurgical industry

In the metallurgical process, quartz crucibles are used for the melting of metals and alloys as well as related chemical analysis and material testing. Its good high temperature resistance and chemical stability make it an ideal choice for processing high temperature metals.

Electronics Industry

In addition to semiconductor manufacturing, quartz crucibles are also used in the production of other electronic components, such as quartz crystal oscillators required to make high-frequency circuits. The pure environment it provides helps reduce the impact of impurities on electronic components.

Biological Sciences

In biological science research, quartz crucibles can be used for high-temperature processing steps in processes such as DNA denaturation and amino acid sequence analysis to ensure the integrity and viability of biological samples under extreme conditions.

Emerging applications

With the advance of science and technology, quartz crucibles have also begun to appear in some emerging fields, such as the research and development of new energy materials, the synthesis of nanomaterials, etc. These fields have particularly high requirements for the purity and temperature resistance of containers.

With its unique physical and chemical properties, quartz crucibles play an indispensable role in many high-tech and traditional industries. In the future, with the technological progress of various industries and the growth of demand for high-performance materials, the application scope of quartz crucibles is expected to further expand.
