I-Zirconium oxide inezinto eziningi eziwusizo eziyenza ifanelekele izinjongo ezihlukahlukene kuzo zonke izimboni eziningi. Izinqubo zokukhiqiza nokwelapha i-zirconia ziphinde zivumele inkampani yokubumba umjovo we-zirconia ukuthi iguqule izici zayo ukuze ivumelane nezidingo ezithile kanye nezidingo zamaklayenti anhlobonhlobo nezinhlelo zokusebenza ezihlukile.

Kulokho, i-zirconia ifana ne-alumina. Nakuba i-aluminium oxide isebenzisa izinjongo ezihlukahlukene, i-alumina ingabhekana nezindlela ezihlukahlukene zokukhiqiza nezokwelashwa ukuze ihlangabezane nezidingo ezihlukahlukene. Kodwa-ke, ukusetshenziswa, ukusetshenziswa, kanye nezici zivame ukwehluka. Hlola ukusetshenziswa okungenzeka kanye nobulukhuni be-zirconium dioxide.

I-Zirconium oxide (ZrO2), noma i-zirconia, iwumsebenzi we-ceramic othuthukisiwe osetshenziswa kakhulu ekukhiqizeni izinhlobo ezahlukene zezitsha zobumba ezihlala isikhathi eside. Ngenxa yokuqina kwayo, ukungenzi lutho kwamakhemikhali, nezici ezihlukahlukene ze-biocompatible, le nto ithola ukusetshenziswa kabanzi ekukhiqizeni izimila ezihlukahlukene zamazinyo.

I-Zirconia iwukusetshenziswa kwamazinyo kuphela okwaziwayo kwalokhu kwaziswa okuthuthukisiwe kwe-ceramic. Kunezinye izakhiwo ezenza i-zirconia ifanele izicelo ezihlukahlukene. Lezi zakhiwo zihlanganisa:

• Impahla ibonisa ukumelana okuhle kakhulu nokugqwala namakhemikhali ahlukahlukene

• Amandla egumbi lokushisa aphezulu kakhulu

• Ukuqina kwe-fracture ephezulu kakhulu

• Ukuqina okuphezulu nokuminyana

• Ukumelana nokugqoka okuhle kakhulu.

• Ukuziphatha okuhle kokungqubuzana.

• I-conductivity ephansi yokushisa

• Ukufakwa kukagesi okuqinile

Lezi kanye nezinye izici zenza i-zirconium dioxide ibe yinto ethandwayo yezakhiwo zamazinyo nezinye izimboni. I-Zirconia nayo isetshenziswa ku:

• Ukuphatha uketshezi

• Izingxenye ze-Aerospace

• Amathuluzi okusika

• Izicelo ze-Biomedical

• Ubunjiniyela obuncane

• Izingxenye ze-elekthronikhi

• I-Fiber optics

• Imibhobho yokufafaza kanye ne-extrusions

• Izingxenye ezidinga ukukhanga okubonakalayo okujabulisayo

• Izingxenye ezinamandla aphezulu nokumelana nokugqoka

Yilolu hlobo lokuguquguquka okwenza i-zirconia ibe enye yezinto ezisetshenziswa kakhulu ze-ceramic ezithuthukisiwe. Ngaphezu kwalokho, izinkampani ziyakwazi ukukhiqiza izinhlobonhlobo zezingxenye ezahlukene kanye nezingxenye ezivela ku-zirconia usebenzisa ukubunjwa komjovo, okuvumela ukuba kube yinto esabalele nakakhulu.
