Ceramic Composite Steel Pipe Solves Abrasion Problem for Lithium Battery Material Transport

The ceramic composite steel pipes developed by Pingxiang Shunpeng New Materials are specifically designed to address the severe wear issues in powder and slurry conveying systems. The outer shell is made of steel, while the inner lining features excellent wear-resistant alumina ceramic, combining the high-temperature wear and corrosion resistance of ceramics with the high strength and toughness of metals. The integrated design facilitates easy replacement and installation.

Panyang Shunpeng New Materials, a domestic expert in ceramic wear-resistant piping, specializes in the production of wear-resistant ceramic pipes, composite pipes, and ceramic tile pipes.

With the rapid development of new energy in our country and the enhanced awareness of environmental protection, there is an increasing demand for lithium batteries as a power source across various industries, such as electric vehicles and mobile phone batteries. Consequently, domestic lithium battery enterprises are rapidly expanding their scale, and our country is one of the largest producers of lithium batteries annually.

Battery materials for cathode and anode require pneumatic conveying pipelines to transport material powders during production. The wear of these conveying pipelines has become a prominent issue. Due to the lack of timely solutions to wear problems, battery manufacturers may experience production disruptions due to equipment failures, severely affecting their production efficiency and competitive level.

Traditional pneumatic conveying pipelines typically use 304 stainless steel materials with glass linings; however, due to the glass's poor abrasion resistance, it is prone to wear under the continuous abrasion of lithium battery raw material powder, especially at the bends. This is because the change in airflow direction at the bends leads to significant wear on the outer side of the bends.

Section III: Abrasion-resistant Solution Utilizing Wear-Resistant Ceramic Composite Steel Pipe

In response to the wear conditions of lithium battery raw material conveying pipelines, our company recommends the use of 95 alumina wear-resistant ceramic pipes.

This wear-resistant ceramic pipe is a composite steel pipe made of steel, adhesive, and ceramic layers. The steel component is made from 304 stainless steel tube, while the ceramic is bonded to the inner wall of the steel using high-strength adhesive, which is then heated and cured to form a durable wear-resistant layer. Suitable for pneumatic conveying of powders, this product operates reliably without aging or falling off at temperatures below 150°C. Its lifespan is 4-5 times longer than that of glass pipes.
