Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) Conical Crucible is an advanced composite ceramic with outstanding mechanical properties. It is created by incorporating Zirconia into the primary Alumina matrix before the sintering process. This combination harnesses the strengths of both materials, delivering superior mechanical strength and wear resistance. ZTA outperforms regular alumina ceramics in terms of strength and toughness, exhibiting high thermal shock resistance while being more cost-effective than pure zirconia. Moreover, ZTA crucibles provide a smoother surface finish compared to Alumina, making them an excellent choice for bio-compatible and analytical-grade applications.
