Preparation of High Capacity Thin-Wall Rutile Tube for Ozone Generator by Colloidal Injection Moulding of Ceramics

Colloidal injection moulding of ceramics (CIMC), an innovative technique combining the advantages of conventional injection moulding and colloidal forming process, is applied to prepare thin-wall rutile tube for high capacity ozone generator. The forming process is studied detailed and the processing parameter of forming, drying and sintering schedule is determined in this research. The wall thickness of the sintered tube is 1.5~2mm and its inner diameter is about 26 mm, length is about 300 mm. The electric properties of the tube are also measured under different conditions. The above-mentioned tube is applied in ozone generator and the yield of ozone is about 55mg·L-1.
