CMC-25™: Redefining Industry Standards
CM Catalyst
Ceramic Balls exemplify exceptional quality. These ceramic balls boast low water absorption, exhibit 100% survival in rapid depressurization tests, showcase high crushing strength, superior impact resistance (drop test), remarkable thermal shock resistance (quench test), and minimal attrition loss.
Today, CM Catalyst
ceramic balls find extensive applications in petroleum refining, petrochemicals, fertilizers plants, acid plants, and industrial gas industries.
Ceramic Balls are having excellent quality
- Low Water absorption
