An annealing oven is a specialized device that enhances the strength, precision, and durability of materials. Commonly used for annealing resins and ceramics, these ovens operate by placing materials inside and maintaining them at a constant temperature for a set period. This process relieves internal stress in the materials, thereby improving their overall properties.
Different materials require specific annealing approaches. For crystalline resins, the process involves heating above the glass transition temperature to increase crystallinity and relieve stress. In ceramics, heating above the sintering temperature is necessary to bolster strength and durability.
Proper temperature and duration settings are critical for annealing. Caution is advised to prevent rapid surface temperature increases and to avoid abrupt cooling post-heating.
