Aluminium oxide

AI203

The material has a uniquely diversified range of applications because of its numerous degrees of purity. We offer aluminum oxide with a purity ranges from 96.0% to 99.8%.

Application

Wear parts for the textile and the machine engineering industry
Suitable for high temperatures and corrosive environments, e.g. in laboratories
Insulating parts for electronics and electrical engineering

Properties

Electrical insulation
Thermal resistance
Resistance to thermal shock
Hardness
Pressure resistance

Zirconium dioxide

ZrO2

Zirconium dioxide has the unique feature that it impedes the spread of cracks through the so-called transformation toughening mechanism. No other ceramic material shows such a high fracture toughness combined at the same time with such high stability.

Application

Sensor Technology (lambda sensors) for oxygen ion conduction
Components that face frequent temperature changes, e.g. draw dies and high-temperature insulating parts
In cases where high fracture toughness is required, e.g. for medical instruments

Properties

Thermal insulation
Thermal resistance
Flexural Strength
Electrical insulation
Fracture toughness

Alumina Toughened Zirconia (ATZ)

ATZ

With this kind of mixed ceramic, a small amount of aluminum oxide is added to the zirconium oxide to significantly improve the wear-resistance, elasticity and toughness.

Application

Bearings and guide parts for machine engineering
Medical implants

Properties

Thermal insulation
Flexural Strenth
Electrical insulation
Temperature and thermo shock resistance
Fracture toughness

Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA)

ZTA

With this mixture of ceramics, a small amount of zirconium dioxide is added to the aluminum oxide which significantly improves the hardness and stability and simultaneously increases the toughness.

Application

Cutting materials for machine
Valves, gear wheels
Sensors
For highest mechanical loads

Properties

Hardness
Resistance to pressure
Resistance to thermal shock
Reistance to temperature
Flexural Strenth

Steatite

Steatite belongs to a group of silicate ceramics and is composed of magnesium silicate. Because of its excellent processability, the material can be produced economically.

Application

Isolators and fuses
High frequency technology
Especially used in the electronics and automotive industry

Properties

Thermal insulation
Electrical insulation
Resistance to thermal shock
