Zirconium oxide ceramic
"a high-tech material"
TECHNICAL CERAMICS MATERIALS
Technical ceramics is the umbrella term for ceramic materials which, depending on the requirement profile, have very different properties / properties.

ZIRCONIUM OXIDE / ZRO2 3Y-TZP - MG-PSZ
Zirconium oxide is the high-performance material among oxide ceramics. It is characterized by exceptional fracture toughness, high wear and corrosion resistance, and low thermal conductivity.

THE ADVANTAGES OF ZIRCONIA CERAMICS
-
Very high fracture toughness
-
Very high flexural and tensile strength
-
High wear resistance
-
High compressive strength
-
Very low thermal conductivity
-
Thermal expansion similar to cast iron
-
E-module comparable to steel
-
Oxygen ion conductivity
-
Very good tribological properties
-
Excellent surface quality and sharp edges possible
MIXED OXIDS / ATZ - ZTA
The optimal properties of both materials are realized in our mixed oxide ceramics.
-Main component ZrO2 are called ATZ (Alumina Toughened Zirconia)
-Main component Al2O3 are called ZTA (Zirconia Toughened Alumina)

THE ADVANTAGES OF MIXED OXIDE CERAMICS
The background of the mixtures is to combine the "good" properties of both oxides:
The great strength and toughness of zirconium oxide with the hardness and wear resistance of aluminum oxide.
With a suitable proportion of ZrO2 in the ZTA material, the high electrical insulation of the Al2O3 is retained.
