Zirconia-toughened alumina ceramic tube

Product Introduction of Zirconia-Toughened Alumina Ceramic Tubes

Zirconia-toughened alumina (ZTA) ceramic is a composite ceramic material with alumina as the matrix, toughened by zirconia phase transformation. The zirconia content in this material is typically 10%-40%. The composite powder is prepared through methods such as mechanical mixing, sol-gel, and co-precipitation. After molding, a dense structure is achieved through processes such as pressureless sintering or hot isostatic pressing.

Main Advantages

• Excellent wear resistance: Zirconia ceramic tubes have 10 times the wear resistance of alumina ceramics, and their friction coefficient is only 1/3 of that of alumina ceramics.

• Excellent mechanical properties: Compressive strength can reach 1200-1400 MPa, which is more than 3 times that of ordinary metals, and fracture toughness is 4 times that of alumina ceramics.

• Outstanding corrosion resistance: It can withstand long-term corrosion from concentrated hydrochloric acid and caustic soda, and its service life in chemical environments far exceeds that of metal pipes.

• Good biocompatibility: The biocompatibility index is as high as 98.7%, and it highly matches the elastic modulus of human bones, making it suitable for medical implants.

Application Fields

• Medical field: Artificial joints, dental implants, surgical instruments, etc.

• Electronics industry: Semiconductor wafer diffusion furnace components, circuit board cooling pipes.

• Chemical equipment: Corrosion-resistant pipes, oil drilling components.
