Alumina
Alumina is the most important oxide-ceramic material and a significant module in our production programme. Its most outstanding properties in keeping as:
Typical characteristics:
- Good flexural strength
- Very high hardness and wear resistance
- Very high corrosion resistance
- High thermal stability
- Excellent dielectric properties
Our 99.5% purity is very small grain size results in a fine and fibre friendly surface.
These strengths pre-determine its use, for instance, extrusion cores, pump sleeves, high voltage insulators and grinding media for mills.
