Crucible backing mixes
Dry powder packing that shares the crucible's thermal expansion, gripping and supporting the body through every heating and cooling cycle to extend working life.

Magnesia-Hinterfüllmasse (MIPEX)
A magnesia spinel dry powder packing for magnesia, high alumina and chrome alumina crucibles and transfer ladles.
Zirkoniumoxid-Hinterfüllmasse
A graded dry zirconia powder for packing around zirconia crucibles in vacuum furnace applications.
Backing mixes that work as one with the crucible
A backing mix is the dry powder that packs the gap between the induction coil and the crucible. Magna formulates each mix to share the crucible's coefficient of thermal expansion, so mix and crucible expand and contract together.
