Aluminum Oxide is a widely used inorganic compound known for its hardness, thermal stability, and resistance to wear and corrosion.
Aluminum Oxide, in pottery, is an essential component used to improve the strength, durability, and thermal resistance of ceramic products. When added to clay bodies or glazes, it enhances their ability to withstand high firing temperatures, making the finished pottery more resistant to heat and mechanical stress. Aluminum oxide also increases glaze stability, preventing excessive flow or running during firing, which helps achieve smooth, even surfaces. Its inclusion in ceramic production leads to tougher, more durable pottery, such as stoneware and porcelain, which are prized for their strength and aesthetic qualities.

Other applications in different industries:
1. Abrasives:
Used extensively in the production of sandpaper, grinding wheels, and cutting tools due to its exceptional hardness and durability.
2. Polishing and Finishing:
Ideal for polishing metals, glass, and other materials, providing a smooth, finished surface in manufacturing.
3. Electronics and Semiconductors:
Serves as an insulating layer in microelectronics and semiconductor production due to its excellent electrical insulation properties.
4. Catalysts and Catalytic Supports:
Employed as a catalyst or support material in chemical reactions, particularly in petrochemical processing, due to its surface properties and resistance to heat.
5. Coatings:
Used in wear-resistant coatings, thermal barrier coatings, and corrosion-resistant coatings for industrial equipment.
NOTE: All Raw Materials are very fine-grained (200-325 Mesh).
