Alumina ball is a kind of ceramic balls.

Here are at least four kinds ceramic balls as I know--Silicon Nitride balls, Silicon Carbide balls, Zirconia balls and Alumina balls.

What is difference between calcined alumina and alumina hydrate?

Calcined alumina is produced by heating alumina hydrate to high temperatures, which removes the chemically bonded water and results in a more pure form of alumina. Alumina hydrate, on the other hand, contains chemically bonded water molecules and is typically used as a flame retardant or filler material due to its lower processing temperature and cost effectiveness.


What is the advantage of using hybrid ceramic ball bearings?

The advantage of using hybrid ceramic ball bearings is that they will have the capabilities of both ceramic and steel which makes the ball bearings flexible yet durable.


Why alumina is stronger than aluminium?

Alumina is a ceramic material composed of aluminum oxide, which has a rigid structure with strong intermolecular bonding. This makes alumina stronger than aluminum, which is a metal with a more malleable and ductile structure. The crystalline nature of alumina allows for higher resistance to deformation and better mechanical properties compared to aluminum.

What is a Alumina insulator?

Alumina insulator is a type of ceramic material that is used to separate electrical conductors in high-temperature and high-voltage applications. It has excellent electrical insulation properties along with high thermal conductivity, making it suitable for applications where heat dissipation is important. Alumina insulators are commonly used in electronics, power equipment, and industrial furnaces.

What is the difference between alpha and gamma alumina?

Alpha alumina has cubic crystal structure, and gamma - rhombohedral (i.e. it is a "skewed cubic") Due to their geometry the typical surface area of a particle is affected, and alpha alumina has fewer -OH groups than gamma alumina. Iron oxide can also have either alpha or gamma structure, and is described on wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(III)_oxide


What is the difference between tabular alumina and fused alumina?

Fused AluminaFused alumina is made in electric arc furnaces by passing a current between vertical carbon electrodes. The heat generated melts the alumina. The furnace consists of a water cooled steel shell and 3-20 tonne batches of material are fused at any one time. The fused alumina has a high density, low porosity, low permeability and high refractoriness. As a result these characteristics, it is used in the manufacture of abrasives and refractories.Calcined AluminaIf aluminium hydroxide is heated to a temperature in excess of 1100ºC, then it passes through the transition phases of alumina referred to above.The final product, if a high enough temperature is used, is α-alumina. The manufacturing process is commercially undertaken in long rotary kilns. Mineralisers are frequently added to catalyse the reaction and bring down the temperature at which the α-alumina phase forms; fluoride salts are the most commonly used mineralisers.These calcined alumina products are used in a wide range of ceramic and refractory applications. The main impurity present is sodium oxide. Various grades are produced which differ in crystallite size, morphology and chemical impurities.The calcined grades are often sub-divided into ordinary soda, medium soda (soda level 0.15-0.25% wt%) and low soda alumina
