Discontinued (Discontinued) ZTA4692 Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) Cylindrical Crucible

Cylindrical Crucibles made of Toughened Zirconium Dioxide (ZTA) Description

The cylindrical crucible made of zirconium dioxide toughened Aluminium Oxide (ZTA) is a composite ceramic with excellent mechanical properties. It is produced by adding zirconium dioxide to the aluminium oxide matrix prior to sintering. This combination of materials provides high mechanical strength and wear resistance. Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) exhibits greater strength and toughness compared to standard aluminium oxide ceramics and offers high thermal shock resistance while being less costly than zirconium oxide. Moreover, ZTA crucibles demonstrate superior surface quality compared to aluminium oxide, making them an excellent choice for biocompatible and analytical applications.

Cylindrical Crucibles made of Toughened Aluminium Oxide (ZTA) FAQ

Q1: How should cylindrical ZTA crucibles be cleaned and maintained?

Cleaning: Clean with suitable solvents and avoid abrasive materials that may scratch the surface. Ultrasonic cleaning may also be used.

Maintenance: Handle with care to prevent mechanical damage. Store in a clean, dry environment to avoid contamination.

Sterilisation: Due to their thermal and chemical resistance, they can be sterilised using autoclaving, dry heat, or chemical disinfectants.

Q2: Can ZTA cylindrical crucibles be customised?

Yes, cylindrical ZTA crucibles can be custom-made to meet specific requirements, including different sizes, shapes, and thicknesses. Customisation can also incorporate specific designs or features to meet unique application needs.

Q3: What is a cylindrical crucible made of zirconium dioxide toughened aluminium oxide (ZTA)?

A cylindrical crucible made of zirconium dioxide toughened aluminium oxide (ZTA) is a laboratory and industrial container made from a ceramic composite material consisting of aluminium oxide (Al₂O₃) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO₂). The addition of zirconium dioxide increases the strength and fracture toughness of aluminium oxide, making it more durable and resistant to thermal shock. These crucibles have a cylindrical shape.
