Properties of Alumina/Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3)
· Very good electrical insulation (1x1014 to 1x1015 Ωcm)
· Moderate to extremely high mechanical strength (300 to 630 MPa)
· Very high compressive strength (2,000 to 4,000 MPa)
· High hardness (15 to 19 GPa)
· Moderate thermal conductivity (20 to 30 W/mK)
· High corrosion and wear resistance
· Good gliding properties
· Low density (3.75 to 3.95 g/cm3)
· Operating temperature without mechanical load 1,000 to 1,500°C.
· Bioinert and food compatible
