Materials
Utilising extensive engineering expertise and combining this with high quality Zirconia ceramics, MTC Melbourne can manufacture a range of wear and corrosion resistant components ideal for your applications.
The world renowned Nilcra™ Zirconia delivers exceptional strength and toughness properties; it is the most reliable Magnesia Partially Stabilised Zirconia (Mg-PSZ) available and as such is the Zirconia ceramic of choice for myriad applications.
Our Zirconia ceramics have delivered added value across a variety of industries, it has regularly been used to replace conventional materials such as metal and alloy providing a more robust, hard wearing and corrosion resistant solution.
It is the exceptional qualities of our Zirconia ceramics that has made them ideal for use within the oil and gas industry, mining and also in manufacturing processes, where extreme toughness and strength are essential.
At MTC Melbourne we use our extensive design and engineering expertise to delivering bespoke solutions which meet demanding specifications. We combine this unique customer focussed approach with proven manufacturing capabilities to deliver high performance, cost effective stabilised Zirconia components.
Our grades of Nilcra™ Zirconia include:
- Nilcra™ Zirconia MS – Maximum strength Magnesia Partially Stabilised Zirconia ideal for high wearing applications.
- Nilcra™ Zirconia TS – Thermal shock resistance Magnesia Partially Stabilised Zirconia for high temperature, hardwearing applications.
- Nilcra™ Zirconia ZrX – Extreme strength Magnesia Partially Stabilised Zirconia, used widely in the automotive industry.
- Nilcra™ Zirconia EYP8 – Electrically conducting Yttria Partially Stabilised Zirconia, idela for high temperature furnace muffling.
- Nilcra™ Zirconia 3YTZP – Fine Grain Yttria Tetragonal Zirconia Polycrystal, used frequently in the manufacture of cutting blades and knives.
