Introduction
Molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) heating element is a high temperature resistant heating element made by molybdenum disilicide. When used in high-temperature oxidizing atmosphere, a layer of bright and dense silica (SiO2) glass film is formed on the surface, which can protect the inner layer of silicon molybdenum from oxidation. Therefore, molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) heating element have unique high-temperature oxidation resistance.
Under the oxidation atmosphere, the maximum operating temperature is 1800 ℃. The resistance of the MoSi2 heating element increases rapidly with the increase of temperature. When the temperature is constant, the resistance value is stable.
Under normal conditions, the element resistance does not change with the length of service time, the correct selection of the surface load of the electric heating element is the key to the service life of the silicon molybdenum bar electric heating element.

Warnings
Operator safety is the top important issue! Please operate the equipment with cautions. Working with inflammable& explosive or toxic gases is very dangerous, operators must take all necessary precautions before starting the equipment. Working with positive pressure inside the reactors or chambers is dangerous, operator must fellow the safety procedures strictly. Extra caution must also be taken when operating with air-reactive materials, especially under vacuum. A leak can draw air into the apparatus and cause a violent reaction to occur.
