Zircon powder

Zirconia Fibre Powder

ZYP powder is an ultra-fine, highly reactive powder composed of zirconia stabilised with yttrium oxide. It is available in two different specific surface sizes: the ZYP-30 has a surface area of 25 to 35 m2/g, while the ZYP-55 has a specific surface area of 50 to 60 m2/g. Sintering of ZYP powder particles starts around 900°C and it is possible to create zirconia ceramic parts approaching theoretical density using ZYP at only 1450˚C.

Properties

  • Extremely high environmental stability
  • Stabilized with 10% yttrium oxide
  • Low sintering temperature
  • Pre-sintered and binder-free

Applications

  • Filtration
  • Manufacture of oxygen sensors
  • Thermal barrier coatings for gas turbines and diesel engines
  • Grain growth inhibitor for non-oxide ceramics
  • Polishing

Zirconia ZYP-30 Powder

Sintering of ZYP powder particles starts around 900°C and it is possible to create zirconia ceramic parts approaching theoretical density using ZYP at only 1450°C. This ultra-fine powder is particularly appreciated in filtration, the manufacture of oxygen sensors, thermal barrier coatings for gas turbines and diesel engines, polishing and as grain growth inhibitor for non-oxide ceramics.
