McDanel Advanced Ceramic Technologies

Alumina (Al2O3) is a hard, chemically resistant material and has the ability to withstand very high temperatures in aggressive environments. McDanel offers Alumina with various purity levels, including 99.8% and 99.0%. The level of purity, grain size, and density required is dependent on the rigors of the application and the component configuration.

Fine Grade Alumina (FGA) 998, from McDanel Advanced Ceramic Technologies is a high-quality, fine-grained 99.8% aluminum oxide. It has a high density, purity, strength, and fracture toughness. FGA-998 also provides excellent corrosion resistance to acids and bases.

For over 90 years, McDanel Advanced Ceramic Technologies has been a leading supplier of Labware and industrial Crucibles. Our line of Labware consists of Boats, Trays, Dishes, Discs and Crucibles. Our industrial applications consist of Crucibles and Ladles. These applications are made from Alumina 998 and Zirconia. These materials offer refractory qualities, thermal shock resistance and prolonged life. We have a variety of standard catalog sizes that are available for purchase online.

McDanel Advanced Ceramic Technologies LLC manufactures various types of tubes, including single and multi-bore configurations, perfect for thermocouple protection sheaths, oxygen sensors, process tubes, support rods and many other applications. For your convenience, we have sizes ranging from 0.020” to 9.5” as part of our standard catalog that you can purchase online.

McDanel Ceramics is the North American partner for MPA pumps and nozzles manufactured in AISI316L as well as filling needles manufactured in AISI316L or Ketron PEEK®. All products are FDA and GMP compliant.

Sialon ST from McDanel Advanced Ceramic Technologies LLC is a ceramic alloy which is iso-structural with beta silicon nitride and contains aluminum and oxygen in solid solution. Consequently, it exhibits a very desirable combination of the properties of both silicon nitride (high strength, hardness, fracture toughness, and thermal shock resistance) and alumina (refractoriness, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance).
