Unlike other ceramic materials, zirconium oxide (ZrO2 also known as zirconia) is a material with very high resistance to crack propagation. Zirconium oxide ceramics also have very high thermal expansion and are therefore often the material of choice for joining ceramic and steel.
Another outstanding property combination is the very low thermal conductivity and high strength. Zirconium oxide ceramics are used among other applications, as tools for wire forming, as auxiliaries in welding processes, as materials for crowns and bridges in the dental industry, as insulating rings in thermal processes, and as oxygen measurement cells in lambda probes.
Typical Uses of ZrO2
*Precision ball valve balls and seats
*High density ball and pebble mill grinding media
*Rollers and guides for metal tube forming
*Thread and wire guides
*Hot metal extrusion dies
*Deep well down-hole valves and seats
*Powder compacting dies
*Marine pump seals and shaft guides
*Oxygen sensors
*High temperature induction furnace susceptors
*Fuel cell membranes
*Electric furnace heaters over 2000°C in oxidizing atmospheres
