Mayelana nosayizi nokuqukethwe okuhlanzekile kwe-aluminium oxide, i-aluminium oxide ceramic iyona evame kakhulu i-ceramic yobuchwepheshe. I-aluminium oxide, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-Alumina, kufanele kube i-ceramic yokuqala umklami ayibhekayo uma ecabanga ukusebenzisa izitsha zobumba ukuze zimiselele izinsimbi noma uma izinsimbi zingakwazi ukusetshenziswa ngenxa yamazinga okushisa aphezulu, amakhemikhali, ugesi, noma ukuguga. Izindleko zempahla ngemva kokuxoshwa aziphezulu kakhulu, kodwa uma ukubekezelelana okunembile kuyadingeka, ukugaya idayimane nokupholisha kuyadingeka, okungafaka izindleko eziningi futhi kwenze ingxenye ibize kakhulu kunengxenye yensimbi. Imali eyongiwe ingavela emjikelezweni omude wempilo noma isikhathi esincane isistimu okufanele ikhishwe ingaxhunyiwe ku-inthanethi ukuze ilungiswe noma ishintshwe. Yiqiniso, eminye imiklamo ayikwazi ukusebenza nhlobo uma incike ezinsimbi ngenxa yemvelo noma izidingo zohlelo lokusebenza.
Zonke izitsha zobumba zinamathuba amaningi okuphuka kunezinsimbi eziningi, okuyinto umklami okufanele acabange ngayo. Uma uthola ukuthi i-Alumina kulula ukuyicupha noma ukugqekeza esicelweni sakho, i-Zirconium oxide ceramic, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-Zirconia, ingaba enye indlela enhle ongabheka kuyo. Kunzima kakhulu futhi ukumelana nokugqoka. I-Zirconia inamandla kakhulu ngenxa yesakhiwo sayo esiyingqayizivele se-tetragonal crystal, evame ukuxutshwa ne-Yttria. Izinhlamvu ezincane ze-Zirconia zenza kube lula ukuthi abakhi bemikhiqizo benze imininingwane emincane nemiphetho ebukhali engakwazi ukumelana nokusetshenziswa kanzima.
Zombili lezi zinto zokusetshenziswa zigunyazwe ukusetshenziswa okuthile kwezokwelapha nangaphakathi emzimbeni kanye nokusetshenziswa okuningi kwezimboni. Abaklami bezingxenye ze-ceramic ezizosetshenziswa kwezokwelapha, i-aerospace, i-semiconductor, i-instrumentation, nezinhlelo zokusebenza zezimboni banentshisekelo kubuchwepheshe bethu bokwenza izinto ezinembile.
