Abstract
Alumina by virtue of its various desirable properties finds various
applications. It is widely used as refractory, as a base for substrates
and radomes and other specialized applications. It is used as an
abrasive, in cutting tools, and the usefulness of this material as grinding
and polishing powders is well established. The properties of
alumina ceramics are governed by the composition, fabrication parameters
and sintering treatments. By a judicious control of the various
parameters, bodies can be tailor made" to meet any functional
requirements.
