Alumina porcelain - Alumina porcelain

Japanese: アルミナ磁器 - アルミナジキ
Alumina porcelain - Alumina porcelain

This refers to fused ceramic whiteware used for industrial purposes, in which the main crystalline phase is alumina (ASTM-C242, American Society for Testing and Materials standard). Aluminous porcelain is porcelain in which part or most of the quartz or kaolin components of true porcelain have been replaced with alumina. Sintered material consisting only of alumina is called sintered alumina. Depending on the alumina content, the hardness, electrical insulation, fire resistance, acid resistance, and other properties of the porcelain improve, but the porcelainization temperature also increases. Sintered alumina has a firing temperature of 1850°C or higher, so for practical alumina porcelain, kaolin, talc, alkaline earth metal oxides, etc. are usually added to lower the firing temperature to 1650-1800°C. Sintered alumina has a fire resistance of 2050°C, but begins to undergo plastic deformation at around 1400°C. Because it has excellent mechanical, electrical, and chemical properties, it has the widest range of uses among oxide ceramics.

Japanese:

工業用に使用される溶融セラミック・ホワイトウェア(ceramic whiteware)で,主結晶相がアルミナであるものをいう(米国材料試験協会規格.ASTM-C242).アルミナ質磁器(aluminous porcelain)と称しているものは真磁器(true porcelain)成分の石英,あるいはカオリンの一部または大部分をアルミナで置換した磁器をいう.アルミナだけからなる焼結物を焼結アルミナ(sintered alumina)という.アルミナの含有量によって磁器の硬度,電気絶縁性,耐火度,あるいは耐酸性などの性質は向上するが,磁器化温度も高くなる.焼結アルミナは焼成温度が1850 ℃ 以上になるので,実用のアルミナ磁器では,通常,カオリン,滑石,アルカリ土類金属酸化物などを添加して焼成温度を1650~1800 ℃ に下げている.焼結アルミナは耐火度2050 ℃ であるが,1400 ℃ 付近から塑性変形を起こす.機械的,電気的,化学的性質にすぐれているので,酸化物セラミックスのうちでは用途がもっとも広い.
