Aluminum Oxide-Carbon

Aluminum Oxide-Carbon composites are used in high-performance refractories, particularly in steelmaking for slide gates and nozzles, due to their excellent thermal shock resistance and slag corrosion resistance.

This material is utilized in high-temperature industrial environments where the combination of alumina's chemical stability and carbon's thermal conductivity and low expansion is required.

Al2O3-C composite targets are used in sputtering processes to create thin films with specific dielectric and optical properties, often for wear-resistant or decorative coatings.
