Zirconium oxides display outstanding thermal, mechanical and chemical properties, making them the material of choice for manufacturing advanced, fine and technical ceramics, and other specialist areas.
Ceramic materials produced from zirconium oxides typically show the highest mechanical strength and fracture toughness values, at room temperature, of any material type (for example when compared to alumina). As a result, they are regularly used for high wear-resistant, cutting and aesthetic applications. With customers increasingly looking to achieve higher levels of precision and reliability, zirconium oxides offer an unparalleled solution.
The benefits of zirconium oxides continue to expand into new markets. For example, the biocompatibility of zirconium oxides has seen their proliferation in the healthcare market for dental and joint replacement. Another growing application is for solid oxide fuel cells, powering the future of our green energy production process.
Combining this with the fact they are environmentally friendly materials, zirconium oxides certainly have their place as a future material.
