Alumina Ceramic Uses

A wide variety of ceramic processing methods can be applied including machining or net shape forming to produce a wide variety of sizes and shapes of component.

Alumina ceramic uses.

Alumina can be produced in a range of purities with additives designed to enhance properties. As an insulating material the dielectric and excellent thermal shock properties of alumina make it an excellent choice as an insulating material. For applications in very high frequencies high purity dense alumina fired at temperatures above 1600 c is generally used. Alumina or aluminum oxide al 2 o 3 is a chemical compound primarily known for its use in the production of aluminum a metal slated for significant growth in the advance toward a low carbon economy.

For example alumina ceramics is indispensable material to reduce the fuel consumption of diesel engine by more than 30. Prices of alumina have soared by 56 on the back of shutdowns in china with experts predicting the high purity alumina market will see a 16 7 cagr between 2016 2022.
