Description

Technical Ceramic Materials are known for their extreme heat resistance, high stability & rigidity, outstanding ability to machined to tight tolerance, and their ability to perform under a wide variety of conditions. Professional Plastics offers a full-range of machinable ceramic materials in plates, rods, bars and tubes. We can provide basic shapes or a precision-machined finished part to your specification.

Thin Rectangular Alumina Ceramic Sheet. This material has very high hardness, very high stiffness, very good corrosion resistance to chemicals at high temperature, or use temperature. They may be used for a variety of electrical, mechanical, and thermal applications.

Applications

There are many different applications for ceramic sheets and boards.

Bioceramics are specially formulated or designed to have suitable biocompatibility for biotechnology and medical applications.

Optical-grade materials are used in the fabrication or processing of optical components such as lenses, windows, or prisms.

Some ceramic sheets and boards are used in chemical and material processing, dielectric and electrical insulating, or foundry and metal processing applications.

Others are used to fabricate electrical parts for high voltage (HV) or power applications.

Ceramic boards that are designed for electronics, radio frequency (RF), microwave, structural, or wear parts applications are also available.

Specifications

Dimensional specifications for ceramic sheets and boards are given as length, width, and thickness or wall thickness. Units of measure include inches (in) and fractions of inches, and millimeters (mm) and centimeters (cm).

In terms of features, some products are coated, hollow, or modified. Others are porous to provide insulation, or made of single-crystal materials that exhibit desirable piezoelectric, optical or magnetic properties. Sintered ceramic sheets and boards are also available. Often, hot isostatic pressing (HIP) is used to densify these materials.
