This rectangle dense-alumina honeycomb ceramic is developed for service in high-temperature, high-load, chemically demanding environments where ordinary cordierite honeycombs reach their limits. Using an alumina-porcelain body with very low water absorption (≈0.1%) and higher solid density (about 2.4 g/cm³), it maintains shape and strength in furnaces, kilns, after-burners and hot exhaust ducts running close to 1200 °C.
The rectangle monolith configuration makes it easy to stack into regenerator boxes or to use as a substrate for catalytic/wash-coat layers. For B2B buyers who need refractory, dense, high-alumina, rectangle honeycomb parts, this design offers longer life and better mechanical safety than lightweight ceramics.
Refractory for 1200 °C class equipment – suitable for kilns, thermal treatment lines, high-temperature exhaust.
Dense, low-absorption body – 0.1% water absorption helps resist chemical attack and thermal cycling with hot, wet gas.
Higher mechanical strength – dense alumina structure tolerates vertical stacking, clamping and vibration better than cordierite.
Rectangle , easy-to-pack modules – designed for industrial chambers, regenerator boxes and catalyst blocks.

Q1: When should I select dense alumina instead of cordierite?
Use dense alumina when your equipment runs near 1200 °C or the bed must carry higher mechanical/stacking loads.
Q2: Can you make other rectangle sizes?
Yes. 150×150 mm is common, but we can supply other rectangle sections and 25–300 mm lengths.
Q3: Is it coatable for VOC / CO control?
Yes. The alumina surface is stable and can be wash-coated for catalytic or filtration purposes.
Q4: What CPSI range is available?
Typically 64–400 CPSI; we match it to your pressure-drop and heat-transfer targets.
Q5: Do you support OEM and long-term supply?
Yes. Hunan Zhonghong New Material (hnzh88.com) can deliver stable batches for furnace, RTO/RCO and burner manufacturers.
