Yttria-stabilized Zirconia Point Bottom Crucible

Available Configurations

Properties common to all products in this list

Composition: ZrO₂/Y₂O₃ Form: Crucible Material: Zirconium Oxide CAS Number: 114168-16-0 Commodity: Ceramics
Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) Point Bottom Crucible offers exceptional thermal resistance, phase stability, and chemical inertness in a form optimised for concentrated heating and efficient pouring of molten materials. The pointed base facilitates controlled melt flow and minimises residual material retention, making it ideal for precision metallurgy, crystal growth, and laboratory alloy preparation. Industries use YSZ point-bottom crucibles in specialty metal casting, high-purity oxide synthesis, and single-crystal fabrication. Specific applications include producing laser-grade sapphire boules, melting reactive alloys, and preparing semiconductor substrate materials. In research, they are applied in studying molten metal behaviours, optimising directional solidification processes, and testing advanced refractory coatings. The geometry’s combination of stability and precision flow control makes it an essential tool for high-tech manufacturing and experimental metallurgy.
