Aluminium Oxide

Aluminium Oxide (CAS 1344-28-1), commonly known as Alumina, is an inorganic mineral sourced in multiple industrial grades for use across refining, abrasive, and catalytic processes.

It functions as a catalyst support, abrasive medium, and surface treatment agent across a broad range of manufacturing and processing industries. In petroleum refining, Alumina serves as a catalyst carrier.

It is used for hydrodesulfurization and other fixed-bed reactions, where its high surface area and thermal stability determine catalyst performance. Abrasive operations rely on fused or calcined grades.

These grades help to grind, polish, and lap metals, ceramics, and composite materials to tight tolerances. In water treatment, activated Alumina removes fluoride and arsenic from drinking water.

This adsorption process helps facilities meet regulatory standards for municipal and industrial systems. Electronics manufacturers use high-purity Alumina as an insulating substrate and thermal barrier.

Consistent dielectric properties are critical to component qualification in aerospace. Aluminium Oxide is available as powder, granules, and shaped pellets, with particle size specified to requirements.

Established grades include activated, calcined, fused, and tabular forms, each targeting distinct end uses. Supply specifications include technical, refractory, and high-purity grades for industry.

Select products meet USP or Ph. Eur. standards for pharmaceutical and analytical applications. This ensures the material meets the rigorous quality benchmarks required for sensitive processes.
