What Is Alumina Ceramic Labware?
Alumina Ceramic Labware is a high-grade ceramic material that is ideal for laboratory applications. It is well balanced and physically stable. In addition, this fine ceramic offers exceptional chemical and corrosion resistance, high hardness, strength, and durability, superb wear resistance and high resistance to alkalies and other fluxes.
Some of the most common industrial ceramics applications for which we manufacture alumina ceramic labware include: high-temperature working conditions, conditions that demand contamination-free results, laboratory furnace use and laboratory vacuum use.
LSP Industrial Ceramics, Inc. offers a wide range of Alumina Ceramic Labware. Our Alumina Ceramic Labware products are available in a variety of sizes, configurations and materials to meet your unique requirements along with custom manufacturing capabilities. *Lids are available for all industrial ceramic products upon request.
We work with only the highest grade alumina materials. Our alumina ceramics labware products can be made from 99% pure alumina, 99.5% pure alumina and 99.7% pure alumina. These varieties are quite similar to one another, and share many features, including general compactness levels, water absorption rates, general gas permeability and hardness. When you look closer, though, each type of alumina offers something different. Each, for example, has a different maximum working temperature and long term working temperature.
The main characteristics of 99% alumina are: hardness and chemical stability. Meanwhile, 99.5% alumina is best known for its high chemical resistance. Finally, ceramic material with an alumina of 99.7% alumina or more is distinguished by its good plasma resistance, high purity and wear resistance. When you discuss your application with us, we will help you determine which alumina right for you.
Our inventory of unfired material allows us a great amount of creative and technical flexibility. With it, we can create custom parts with properties that match your application perfectly, no matter how large or how small.
How Alumina Ceramic Labware Supports Precision and Purity
Alumina ceramic labware is engineered for environments where contamination control, thermal stability, and chemical resistance are important. LSP Industrial Ceramics manufactures high-purity alumina components for laboratories, research institutions, and industrial facilities. Whether you're working with high-temperature furnaces or vacuum systems, our labware ensures consistent performance and reliable results.
Material Grades Tailored to Your Application
LSP offers alumina ceramic labware in 99%, 99.5%, and 99.7% purity levels. Each grade provides unique benefits:
- 99% alumina: Excellent hardness and chemical stability.
- 99.5% alumina: Superior resistance to corrosive chemicals and fluxes.
- 99.7% alumina: Exceptional plasma resistance and wear durability for high-purity environments.
Our team helps customers select the right grade based on temperature requirements, exposure conditions, and performance goals.
