Alumina is one of the most widely-used technical ceramics, accounting for roughly 80% of engineering applications due to its combination of properties. Alumina provides high levels of electrical insulation and mechanical strength; it can be machined with tight tolerances into precision parts; furthermore it boasts highly corrosion resistance capabilities and can withstand harsh chemical environments.

Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ), another widely-used industrial ceramic, is highly hard and durable, as well as having exceptional insulating and wear resistance properties. As well as being used in semiconductor production processes due to its ability to withstand higher temperatures.

Alumina-zirconia (AlZrO2) ceramic composites are an exceptionally hard technical ceramic material with outstanding hardness, strength, wear resistance and fracture toughness characteristics derived from both components – hard alumina for hardness/strength/wear resistance while zirconia’s fracture toughness provides high fracture toughness for fracture toughness. Alumina-zirconia ceramics can be produced to very high purity levels for use across various industries – they come in all sorts of shapes/sizes/forms/use cases!

High hardness

Ceramic materials provide excellent corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and chemical stability. Alumina (Al2O3) is one of the oldest of these engineering materials. As a nonmetallic inorganic material it can be formed into different shapes by heat treatment processes to make high temperature furnace components or hot glass handling devices. After sintering alumina becomes dense single phase ceramic with closed pores of less than 0.5% porosity – ideal properties for industrial applications.

Alumina ceramic is an extremely hard and resilient material, making it suitable for many industrial applications. With outstanding machinability and thermal shock resistance up to 1000 deg C, Alumina ceramic makes an excellent material choice.

Wear resistance of alumina ceramics depends on their grain size and distribution within the material, and must also be free from foreign particles. Studies have revealed that grain size plays an integral part in wear resistance. Dogan and Esposito [5] found that small grain size ceramics have superior wear performance due to squeezing growth between grains.

Alumina ceramic’s superior wear resistance stems in part from its low coefficient of expansion. Alumina has a lower thermal expansion coefficient than quartz and sand, which can be advantageous when working under high-temperature conditions; however, in certain applications this property could prove detrimental.

High wear resistance

High wear resistance is one of the hallmarks of an alumina ceramic rod. This property stems from its high hardness and toughness. Furthermore, this material boasts excellent thermal shock resistance as well as being capable of withstanding high temperatures – making it suitable for a range of industrial applications.

FESEM was used to understand the wear resistance of alumina ceramics by studying its microstructure, and our findings revealed that trace amounts of Gd2O3 can make grains finer while inhibiting grain growth; rare-earth ions fill defects on grain surfaces to lower energy and thus slowing down grain boundary diffusion rates.

Bulk density of alumina ceramics is also an influential factor in their wear rate, with higher-density ceramics more easily withstanding harsh conditions and operating at high temperatures than their lower density counterparts. Excessive addition of Gd2O3 may reduce this property.

YSZ Zirconia Ceramic is an ideal material choice for demanding industrial applications that demand exceptional strength, wear resistance, chemical inertness and temperature resistance.
