Aluminum Oxide Ceramic

Our inventory includes high quality alumina oxide balls as well as chrome steel stainless steel aluminum and plastic precision balls.

Aluminum oxide ceramic. Annual world production of alumina is approximately 45 million tons and over 90 percent of which is used in the manufacture of aluminum metal. Alumina or aluminum oxide al 2 o 3 in its various levels of purity is used more often than any other advanced ceramic material. It is four times harder than fused silica glass 85 as hard as sapphire and nearly 15 harder than magnesium. The raw materials from which this high performance technical grade ceramic is made are readily available and reasonably priced resulting in good value for the cost in fabricated alumina shapes.

Alumina ceramic exhibits resistance to both high temperature and corrosion electrical properties of alumina ceramic aluminum oxide include high volume resistivity as well as low loss characteristics at high frequencies. Alumina aluminum oxide al 2 o 3 alumina is the most well known and most commonly used fine ceramic material. Aluminum oxide is an electrical insulator but has a relatively high thermal conductivity 30 wm 1 k 1 for a ceramic material. Alumina commonly known as aluminium oxide al 2 o 3 is an inert odourless white amorphous material often used in industrial ceramics due to its outstanding properties alumina has contributed to a significant number of life extending and society enhancing applications.

Ceramtec offers a wide range of material types with different property profiles that can be adjusted via a targeted matrix design. Alumina is one of the most cost effective and widely used material in the family of engineering ceramics. Oxide ceramics aluminum oxide al 2 o 3 the most well known oxide ceramic material. It has the same sintered crystal body as sapphire and ruby.

Alumina ceramic is a very hard dense material of exceptional strength. Aluminum oxide al 2 o 3 ceramic properties. Features properties of alumina oxide balls alumina oxide al2o3 is a top choice of ceramic balls due to its high corrosion resistance and high operating temperature capabilities. Aluminium oxide iupac name or aluminum oxide american english is a chemical compound of aluminium and oxygen with the chemical formula al 2 o 3 it is the most commonly occurring of several aluminium oxides and specifically identified as aluminium iii oxide it is commonly called alumina and may also be called aloxide aloxite or alundum depending on particular forms or applications.
