Recently, many users have been asking about microporous ceramic products. So Mingrui Ceramics is here to popularize science for you briefly. Let's take a look at the differences between microporous ceramics and zirconia ceramics. What are the differences?
Different Structures
Microporous ceramics refer to ceramic bodies containing a large number of open or closed small pores inside or on the surface of the ceramic. The pore diameter is usually microns or submicrons.
Zirconium oxide ceramics are materials with high resistance to crack propagation. They have a high coefficient of thermal expansion and are often used to make metallized ceramics.
Other Performances
Microporous ceramics are functional structural ceramics. Microporous ceramics have adsorption, breathability, corrosion resistance, environmental compatibility, biocompatibility, etc.
Zirconia Ceramics Zirconia is a ceramic material with high density, high hardness, and very high moisture absorption. It has two excellent properties: low thermal conductivity and high strength.
Various applications
Microporous ceramics are widely used in the filtration of various liquids, gas filtration, and immobilization of biological enzyme carriers and biological adaptability carriers, and are widely used in environmental engineering such as industrial water, domestic water treatment, and sewage treatment. Microporous ceramics can be used in oil field extraction operations, acid and alkali solution filtration in chemical plants, and filtration in various beverages, beer, fermentation, and sugar industries, which can greatly improve the product quality of these industries.
Zirconia ceramics can be used as auxiliary materials for wire forming molds and welding processes, and at the same time, they are often suitable for insulating rings in high-temperature environments. Common applications include laser accessories, mechanical parts, optical fiber ceramic rings and sleeves, and semiconductor upper teeth.
