Zirconia Fused Alumina

Zirconia fused alumina is produced by melting aluminum oxide and zirconium oxide in an electric arc furnace at temperatures above 2000°C. It typically contains 10%-40% zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) and exhibits high toughness, dense structure, high strength, and good thermal stability, usually appearing in gray-brown color.

Features

  • High hardness: zirconia fused alumina boasts exceptional hardness, often exceeding 9 on the Mohs scale, making it ideal for precision and high-efficiency abrasive machining.
  • Excellent wear resistance: This abrasive material maintains long-lasting cutting and grinding efficiency while reducing tool wear and extending equipment lifespan due to its outstanding wear resistance.
  • Low thermal expansion: With a low coefficient of thermal expansion, zirconia fused alumina demonstrates good stability and resistance to deformation under high-temperature conditions.

Applications

Depending on the ZrO2 content, it comes in two variants: zirconia fused alumina 25 (ZrO2 25%) and zirconia fused alumina 40 (ZrO2 40%). zirconia fused alumina 40 exhibits better self-sharpening properties than zirconia fused alumina 25, suitable for cutting wheels, coated abrasives, etc. zirconia fused alumina 25 is ideal for heavy-duty grinding.

  • Zirconia fused alumina micro powders are primarily used in manufacturing polishing compounds, polishing wax, sandpaper, etc.
  • It serves as a premium refractory material for manufacturing high-performance sliding nozzles, immersion nozzles, glass melting kiln bricks, and high-end building materials.
  • With excellent resistance to molten metal corrosion, it acts as a superior abrasive, providing efficient grinding for steel, cast iron, heat-resistant steel, and various alloy materials. It can be used to produce high-performance heavy-duty zirconia fused alumina grinding wheels, rough grinding wheels, cutting discs, rail grinding, high-speed sand belts, etc.
