Glass Manufacturing
Alumina is added to glass formulations to improve mechanical strength, hardness, thermal and optical properties. These properties are important in end-use applications such as LCD glass, cover screens, armor, and fiberglass for industrial, marine and aerospace industries. The low impurity levels of our calcined alumina allows the user to maintain more consistent batch chemistry, melt viscosity and flow behavior.
