Frequently Asked Questions

What purity levels of alumina (Al₂O₃) ceramics can you provide?

Jundro Ceramics supplies multiple high-purity grades of alumina, including:
95%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.7%, and 99.8% Al₂O₃.
These grades cover applications from industrial structural parts to semiconductor, aerospace, and high-vacuum components.

Is there a significant difference between different alumina purities?

Yes. Higher purity alumina offers:

  • Higher hardness and strength

  • Better chemical resistance

  • Higher dielectric strength

  • Lower porosity and improved surface finish

95% alumina is suitable for general industrial parts, while 99%+ alumina is preferred for semiconductor, vacuum, and precision applications requiring superior insulation and mechanical stability.

Do you provide custom machining services for alumina ceramics?

Yes. Jundro Ceramics is a professional alumina ceramic manufacturer with extensive experience in precision machining.
We support custom-made alumina components used in semiconductor equipment, automation systems, aerospace parts, vacuum tools, and high-temperature applications.
Services include CNC milling, grinding, polishing, slotting, drilling, and complex geometries.

What is the difference between alumina and zirconia ceramics?
  • Alumina (Al₂O₃):

    • Higher hardness

    • Higher temperature resistance

    • Better electrical insulation

    • More cost-effective

    • More brittle than zirconia

  • Zirconia (ZrO₂):

    • Higher toughness and fracture resistance

    • Better impact strength

    • Lower thermal conductivity

    • Suitable for wear parts requiring toughness

Alumina = harder & more temperature-stable; Zirconia = tougher & more impact-resistant.

What is the hardness of alumina ceramics?
  • Typical Vickers hardness (HV):

    • 95% alumina: ~13.7 GPa

    • 99% alumina: ~15.2 GPa

    • 99.7% alumina: ~17.2 GPa

    • 99.8% alumina: ~18 GPa

    Higher purity correlates with higher hardness and better wear resistance.
