Light in weight, Aluminum Oxide is used as an essential part of aircraft manufacturing process. It is also used for making cookware for its high boiling factor and low reaction rate with oxygen.
Characteristics
Accessible in crystalline form, physical and chemical attributes of this chemical compound and natural corundum have similarity. This chemical is known for its exceptional hardness level, high abrasion and wear resistance capacity and good thermal conduction ability. It does not react with acids under high temperature level.
Aluminum Oxide is required to fabricate insulated ceramic with high porosity level to act against acids excluding hydrofluoric and phosphoric acids.
Its high boiling attribute and low reactivity factor of this chemical have made it ideal element for producing refractory items with pressure, heat and acidic attack withstanding ability. It is also required for producing thermal testing instruments, capacitors and resistors.
This chemical compound is utilized to formulate coating material for pigment like titanium oxide for its ability to resist catalytic reaction. It is used as an essential element for manufacturing welding fillers.
