Properties of Ceramic Materials
Depend of application we can offer you a wide range of Aluminium Oxide in 99,7% - 99,5% - 97,6% - 60% All in gas-proof quality, we can also offer 99,5% and 80% in porous quality.Zirconium Oxide has among the engineering ceramics the highest mechanical strength and toughness at normal temperatures. It comes in different grades among others Y2O3 stab. ZrO2, MgO stab. Zro2 and Zirconia toughened Alumina ZTA.
The expansion rate of Zirconia is more or less similar to steel, so it can be applied as inserts in steel by means of a pressfit or shrikfit if necessary.
Zirconia in general can be machined to very tight tolerances and we can even reach a surface finish of 0,006 microns. The liftetime of Zirconia wearparts is remarkeble and beats Tungsten Carbice in several applications.
Zirconia can be described as a ceramic with a certain ductility wich makes it suitable for springs, knives, and optical fibre connectors. It is the "workhorse” within the extensive ceramic family.
