Analytical Chemistry: A muffle furnace can be used for sample pretreatment in analytical chemistry, such as ashing, combustion, and thermal decomposition of inorganic substances. They can also be used for the pyrolysis, dissolution, and removal of organic substances.
Coal quality analysis: used for measuring moisture, ash content, volatile matter content, ash melting point analysis, ash composition analysis, elemental analysis, and can also be used as a universal ashing furnace.
Ore smelting: In metallurgy and ore processing, muffle furnaces are used for sintering, reduction, and smelting of ores. They can provide a high-temperature environment to melt or undergo chemical reactions in the ore.
Ceramic technology: In ceramic manufacturing, muffle furnaces are widely used for sintering ceramic products, such as ceramic billets, ceramic coatings, and ceramic fibers.
