High-Performance Ceramics Based on Stabilized Zirconium Dioxide (ZrO₂) – Advanced Solutions for Industry and Laboratory
Zirconium dioxide (ZrO₂) is one of the most advanced materials in the field of technical ceramics. Due to its natural instability at room temperature, ZrO₂ must be stabilized through the targeted addition of oxides such as yttrium oxide (Y₂O₃), magnesium oxide (MgO), calcium oxide (CaO), or aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃). This process yields a high-performance ceramic with exceptional physical and chemical properties, including high temperature resistance, extreme hardness, outstanding fracture toughness, and very low thermal conductivity.
GTS GmbH specializes in the production of precision components made from stabilized zirconia. Our ceramic parts are increasingly used in laboratory applications—in the form of crucibles, ashing dishes, tubes, plates, and custom designs. The high purity and chemical inertness of ZrO₂ make it ideal for demanding thermal and analytical processes.
In addition to laboratory applications, GTS is expanding its portfolio of custom-engineered ceramic components for mechanical engineering, electronics, optics, and medical technology. Due to its excellent mechanical performance, biocompatibility, and thermal stability, stabilized zirconia is ideal for use in wear parts, insulators, sensor housings, dental applications, and implantable medical devices.
Our manufacturing capabilities allow for both small series and bespoke components according to customer specifications. GTS guarantees highest quality, precise fabrication, and material-appropriate design—hallmarks of future-oriented high-performance ceramic production “Made in Germany.”
Rely on GTS—your expert partner for advanced ceramic materials and high-tech components made from stabilized ZrO₂.
