Quality Control

Our Yttrium Zirconium Oxide is produced under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure compliance with precise specifications for phase composition, particle size distribution, and chemical purity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as yttria content, specific surface area (BET), and crystalline phase are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be stored in a cool, dry place at room temperature (15-25°C). For long-term storage, consider using a desiccated environment to prevent moisture uptake, which can affect powder flow and sintering properties.
