The textile industry has always been a pioneer when it comes to innovation. The benefits of wear-resistant ceramic materials were quickly recognised, particularly in the processing of textile threads. These materials are used across the board to cope with the high abrasive loads in textile production.
The importance of wear-resistant ceramics in textile production
Textile threads that glide over surfaces at high speed require stable and low friction. This is made possible by finely polished functional surfaces. Even the slightest disturbance can lead to tension in the thread and thus to tears. This is where technical ceramics come into play. Glazed porcelain was used as a thread guide over 100 years ago, until it was finally replaced by more efficient materials such as zirconium oxide. These modern ceramics still offer excellent performance reserves for processing technical textiles.
