High-performance Zirconium Oxide

 

Zirconium oxide ceramic is impressive because of its extraordinary fracture toughness
and bending strength. In addition it has all of the traditional ceramic properties such as
resistance to corrosion, resistance to wear and hardness. Zirconium oxide shows very
minimal tendency to weld with metal.

This is where the advantage of our qualities CR101 and CR105 lies. Parts made of
zirconium oxide provide a higher service life. They optimize setting-up times and minimize
the time the machine stands still.

With our modern production installations we manufacture complete construction parts to high standards of tolerance and surface finish.

Thanks to its structure the zirconium ceramics CR 101 and
CR 105 provide unique property profiles:

• excellent tribological reaction
• minimal tendency to weld with metallic materials
• unusual high bending strength
• very high fracture toughness with excellent resistance to wear and edge solidity
• very high compressive strength
• low thermal conductivity, ideal for use in thermal insulation
• very high stability of the edges
