RANGE OF MATERIALS

High-performance ceramics tailored to your most demanding projects.

OXIDES

Al₂O₃ 99.8%, basic material being useful in many applications for technical ceramics, good mechanical behavior in the high temperatures, the good thermal conductivity, the big electric resistivity, the great hardness, the good wear resistance, the chemical slowness.

ZrO₂, material with excellent mechanical properties at room and high temperatures, great hardness, good wear resistance and good chemical inertness.

Alumina Toughened Zirconia, known for their biocompatibility and their resistance to wear and thermal shock, are recommended for biomedical and industry applications. The ceramic ATZ combines both Alumina (20%) and Zirconia (80%) ceramics in one. The mix of these two combined offers several properties.

High purity Alumina for challenging applications.

8 mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia is mainly used for fuel cell applications.

The cordierite is a magnesium alumina silicate material with low CTE, low thermal conductivity, wear resistant that makes it good for vacuum application.

NITRIDES

The Silicon Nitride is among the hardest and most resistant technical ceramics. It has also a high resistance to thermal shocks, to wear and corrosion (liquid and gas).

The high mechanical properties of this ceramic, combined with high thermal conductivity and electrical insulation, are highly recommended in electronics industry.

CARBIDE

Silicon Carbide (SiC) is a high-performance semiconductor and structural ceramic renowned for its extreme hardness, lightweight nature, and remarkable thermal shock resistance.

OTHER

Ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) are a class of refractory ceramics that offer excellent stability at temperatures exceeding 2000°C.
