What are Metallized ceramics?

Metallized ceramics represent a cornerstone in modern ceramic packaging technology, enabling reliable, high-strength, and hermetically sealed joints between ceramic and metal components. By depositing a functional metal layer onto an insulating ceramic surface, we create surfaces that support brazing ceramics to metal, vacuum electronic packagingve electrical connectivity while retaining the intrinsic benefits of advanced ceramics.

Why Metallized Ceramics?

Ceramics such as alumina (Al₂O₃), aluminum nitride (AlN), zirconia (ZrO₂)ve silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) possess excellent thermal stability, wear resistance, and electrical insulation. However, they are difficult to bond directly to metals due to poor wettability and mismatched thermal expansion.

Metallization technology overcomes these limitations by forming a metallurgical bond between ceramic and metal via various methods—enabling:

  • Electrical insulation with metal connectivity
  • Yüksek mekanik dayanım
  • Excellent vacuum compatibility
  • High temperature and corrosion resistance
  • Stable hermetic sealing with metals

What We Do: Ceramic Metallization Capabilities

Great Ceramic delivers high-reliability metallized ceramics using proprietary Mo/Mn and Mo/Mn/W coatings, enabling precise, hermetic ceramic-to-metal brazing. With in-house plating, tight-tolerance machining, and full testing for strength and seal integrity, we provide custom solutions for medical, electronic, power, and sensor applications. The metallization performance indicators are as follows:

  • Vacuum air tightness: Leakage rate ≤1×10-11Pa.m³/s

  • Mechanical strength: Average tensile strength ≥130MPa, Single point tensile strength ≥100130MPa.

  • Thermal shock performance: 6 times between 600℃ and room temperature, no cracking or leakage
