Zirconia Toughened Alumina Tube/Pipe Description

Zirconia Toughened Alumina Tube/Pipe is engineered by dispersing fine zirconia particles within an alumina matrix, significantly enhancing its mechanical strength and crack resistance. This advanced ceramic structure provides excellent stability under thermal cycling, making it a solid choice for applications involving aggressive chemicals, high temperatures, and mechanical wear. It’s often used in analytical instruments, protective linings, and structural components in demanding industrial environments.

Zirconia Toughened Alumina Tube/Pipe Features

  • Enhanced Toughness: Zirconia particles improve fracture resistance and reduce brittleness compared to pure alumina.
  • High Wear Resistance: Maintains structural integrity under abrasive conditions and repeated use.
  • Excellent Thermal Stability: Performs reliably in high-temperature and thermal cycling environments.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Withstands exposure to acids, alkalis, and other harsh chemicals.
  • Dimensional Precision: Suitable for applications requiring tight tolerances and stable mechanical properties.

Zirconia Toughened Alumina Tube/Pipe Applications

  • High-Temperature Furnaces: Used as insulation and structural support in extreme heat environments.
  • Semiconductor Manufacturing: Serves as a durable component in plasma and chemical vapor deposition systems.
  • Chemical Processing Equipment: Ideal for transporting corrosive fluids and gases due to its chemical resistance.
  • Precision Machinery: Applied in wear-resistant liners, guides, and sleeves for moving parts.
  • Laboratory Instruments: Used in analytical devices requiring high strength and thermal stability.

Zirconia Toughened Alumina Material Grades

CeramAlloy ZTA is a high performance ceramic composite and a unique ceramic material by way of exhibiting a combination of high hardness, strength, wear and corrosion resistance resulting from its Alumina content, while still maintaining reasonably high fracture toughness resulting from its Zirconia content.

Applications:
  • High pressure equipment – ball valve balls and seats
  • Rollers and guides for metal forming
  • Thread and wire guides
  • Deep well down-hole valves and seats
  • Shaft bearings/bushings

Zirconia Toughened Alumina Ceramic Machining

CNC machining for ceramics HM 3

Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) is a high-performance composite material that enhances toughness and strength by incorporating zirconia (ZrO₂) into alumina (Al₂O₃). Machining this material requires addressing its high hardness and brittleness. Key machining aspects include:

  • Cutting: Utilizes diamond tools or laser cutting for precision and edge integrity.
  • Grinding: Employs precision grinding to control surface roughness and dimensional tolerances.
  • Drilling: Uses ultrasonic or diamond drills for micro-holes, ideal for electronic applications.
  • Surface Finishing: Polishing or coating improves wear resistance and aesthetics.

ZTA machining is widely applied in precision component manufacturing, such as electronic substrates and medical implants.

Zirconia Toughened Alumina Ceramic Packaging

Zirconia Toughened Alumina Ceramic products are typically packaged in vacuum-sealed bags to prevent moisture or contamination and wrapped with foam to cushion vibrations and impacts during transport, ensuring the quality of products in their original condition.
