Alumina of different purities usually have significant differences in performance. Common alumina is 92, 95, 99, 99.5, 99.7 and 99.8%. The increase in purity will make Al2O3 more stable and reliable in more harsh environments. It is often used in the semiconductor and medical industries.
99.8% Alumina Advantages
- Electrical insulation
- High hardness
- Corrosion resistance
- Wear-resistant
- Non-toxic and odorless
- Low coefficient of thermal expansion
Application Cases
Aluminum oxide ceramic arm
It can be used to handle or position sensitive materials in semiconductor manufacturing, providing excellent insulation and thermal stability.
