| General description: | Aluminum oxide (Al2O3), also known as alumina. It is commonly used in various rubber, plastics, ceramics, and refractory materials for reinforcement hardening. It can also be used as a filler or component in polymer or inorganic composite materials, as a catalyst or catalyst support, as an adsorbent, etc. |
| General description: | We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which belong to one of the four categories of greener alternatives. Aluminum oxide serves as a multifunctional additive or coating in lithium-ion batteries, helping stabilize electrode–electrolyte interfaces, suppress side reactions, improve thermal stability, and extend cycle life. By enabling safer, longer-lasting cells, it reduces material waste and energy use across the battery lifecycle. Click here ![]() |
