ZTA 25

High resistance to thermal shock | Resistance to wear and abrasion | Recommended for the biomedical industry and for wear parts

ZTA (Zirconia Toughened Alumina) is an alumina and zirconia composite material mix : this helps to get the properties from both material in a single ceramic powder. The ZTA then inherits of high temperature and wear resistance from the alumina but also the impact resistance from zirconia. The different alumina-zirconia ratios offered by Nanoe enables the client to pick a product best suited to his needs. Thanks to our unique know-how on powder synthesis, the parts made with our ZTA have a very fine microstructure with a high homogeneity, resulting in higher mechanical properties.

ZTA25 makes it possible to make wear parts such as extrusion dies or pump bodies with a longer working life than with a product made solely of alumina. In addition, ZTA25 is particularly recommended for the medical sector. Indeed, its alumina structure ensures a maximum lifetime for the prostheses, thus increasing the comfort and safety of the patient, while its zirconia reinforcement protects it from potential shocks.
