Yttrium Oxide

Yttrium(Yttrium Oxide,Y2O3)stabilized zirconia(zirconium dioxide,ZrO2)grinding media have high density, super hardnes and excellent fracture toughness, enabling to achieve superior grinding efficiencies compared to other conventioanl lower density media.UrbanMines specializes in producing Yttrium Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) Grinding Beads Media with the highest possible density and smallest possible average grain sizes for use in semiconductor, grinding media, etc.

Yttrium Oxide, also known as Yttria, is an excellent mineralizing agent for spinel formation. It is an air-stable, white solid substance. It has a high melting point(2450°C), chemical stability, low coefficient of thermal expansion, high transparency for both visible (70%) and infrared (60%) light, low cut off energy of photons. It is suitable for glass, optic and ceramic applications.
