Zirconia is a structural ceramic with low and uniform grain size and very high strength at room temperature. It can be processed to form complex geometries with extreme precision, and extremely high surface polish. It is suitable for applications that require a substance that is resistant to wear and fracture.

Zirconia can be mixed with other materials in order to enhance resistance to fracture. Typical materials for this process are Yttrium, Magnesium Calcium and Alumina. ICERA has the knowledge and production capabilities to customize Zirconia according to customer needs.

Typical applications for Zirconia:

• Pump seals, valves and impellors
• Bearing sleeves and valves
• Cutting accessories
• Metal-forming tools
